Ideal Inspires Desire.

1t was some time ago that the high.
est and truest ideal Of the human
race were started.
This is perhaps connected with the
fact that much of our best safeguard.
ing comes from nature. For instance,
frequently woman, even of full
natural instincts, has no special desire
for progeny. Then a strong love
comes, and to what was only a vague
general idea before, that she naturally
would have children, is added a real
longing, an intense imagining of how
pleasant little creature would be-
and of what solemn and joyful pos
session it would be together. Desires
grow when the ideal surroundings are
prepared. Nature takes care of US
She is often careless, but judge by her
best, and wonderful Is she in har
mony and depth.-Harper's Weekly.

REFUGE IN SILENCE?
LIONS ROARS QUlETED WHEN
HUNTERS ARE ABROAD.
Facts Noted by Theodore Roosevelt
While In Africa-Has Belief That
the Sounds Are Method OF
Signaling.

Lions are noisy animals where they
have not been much molested, but, for
some reason or other, II they are SO
hunted that their numbers are much
thinned, the survivors seem to roar
less frequently than formerly, writes
Theodore Roosevelt in Scribner's Mag.
azine.
The roaring Is done at night, but
once in the Lado I heard a hon roar
after sunrise. There is no grander
sound in nature than the roaring of a
troop Of lions. The old male begins
and the others chime In, at first with
low means, that grow louder and loud.
or until the full Hinged roaring can lit
orally be heard for miles. Then the
roars gradually die away into gasping
grunts.
The volume Of sound is extraordin.
airy and cannot possibly be mistaken
for any other noise If reasonably
close, but Of course IL far enough dis
tant 1t becomes only partly audible,
and may then resemble the booming
OF an ostrich heard near by, and in
thick cover the grunt or growl of a
lion, indistinctly heard, may be mis-
taken for the grunt of buffalo or the
occasional growl-I know no other
word to describe the sound-of an ele-
plant, beast which sometimes utters
the queerest and most unexpected
noises.
1t has been asserted that the lion
never roars when hungry, because to
do so would brighten his prey, and that
his roaring is sign that lie is full fed.
This sounds plausible, and yet as a
matter of fact / doubt If it Is true. I'm.
questionably after successful chase
lions roar freely. l have most often
heard them between midnight and
morning. But I have also heard regu.
Far roaring-not mere moaning or the
painting noise occasionally INDUCED in
by a hungry, questing beast-soon
after dark, and this was persevered in
at intervals for an hour or so.
am inclined to think that generally
lions are silent until they have killed,
but that occasionally, whether as sig
nails to one another or from mere
pride and overbearing insolence, they
roar at intervals in their way through
the darkness from their resting place
to their hunting field. OF course, when
they reach the actual place where they
are to hunt they become quiet, unless
they deliberately try to stampede the
animals by roaring, or unless several
are hunting together, spread out
around herd of zebra or antelope,
when one may roar or grunt to scare
the animals toward the others.
