and which was expected to regain lost
ground Ill the present war. has shown
itself very gun-shy. Another curious
fact noted by Mr. Reuter- is that the
song-birds, such as the lark, the thrush,
and the finch, have not been driven
away by the thunder of the cannon.
and continue to hold their nests and
sing their songs in their accustomed
haunts. Other birds which remain I'M
frightened are various kinds of owls,
falcons, sparrow-hawks, crows, etc.
Another interesting observation is
that animals vary in sensitiveness of
temperament Just as do individuals and
races. For example.
1.-The Canidae dogs Evolves. iackals
and foXes), with their highly developed
nervous systems, possess a high degree
of sensitiveness. Only the intelligent
and long-trained house-dog shows itself
more resistant to the shock of detona-
tions. In the same way among horses
the thoroughbred and the half bred are
more sensitive than the cold-blooded.
Animals which are by nature easily
excited, and also those in whom there
arc already signs of some maladv of
or hypcresthcsia). are less resistant.
The German war horses. though as
scmbled from the most various sources
and for the most part unframed, have
shown themselves capable of becoming
more quickly Injured to the noises Of
battle than are. for example the ccle-
brated Russian horses.
"The psychological effect of heavy
firm H. I
the fright, the strength of air-pressure.
and the defamation, may be furthcred
by a sort of predisposition or prefor-
nation without actual disease in the
organism Of the animal. Then. too, the
power of resistance may be weakened
by ovcr-exertion, long continued
marches. unaccustomcd food, hunger.
improper handling, and possibly by the
vision of the explosion itself with
its stones and bits Of shell hurting
through the air, causing even the ami
malsou to be oppressed with horror. -
Mr. Reuter- makes the point that even
when animals have been hardened bv
custom to be resistant, this resistance
may be slowly worn down by too long
stay amid such scenes of nerve
weakening shock: so that the strongest
will-power and the most resistant or
ganism viii break down in the end. For
this reason recupcration stations, or
. convalesecnt homes, have been es-
tablished in the garrisons for used-up
warehouses; and Red-Cross dogs; in
jena, for example, one such has been
prepared by the League of Human
tarians' to give such nervc-worn ami
mails chance to recover strength and
serviceableness.-Literary Digest.

Sensitiveness of Animals to Noise of
Heavy Artillery.

Some curious aud interesting obser-
vations upon the psychological effect
produced on animals by the dctona-
tons of big guns have been recently
made by German veterinary surgeon
named Reuter- and are published in
Umschau (Frankfort). The animals
considered are the horses and dogs
used for military purposes, and the
game in the area of warfare. 1t was
noticed soon after the beginning of the
war that the latter began to migrate
into Luxembourg, Switzerland, and the
portions of France and Belgium not
the seat of hostilities. The first to flee
was the "black game" Ga term which
includes the wild boar, the badger, and
the bear, whose senses are especially
acute. Then the roebuck and the red
deer followed, but strange to say the
hare, whose timidity is proverbial, CON
tinued to occupy its usual territory.
The larger birds likewise, such as the
grouse, the pheasant, the seaeaglc, and
the wild duck, were driven away by
the heavy firing. Strange to say, the
wolf, which is famous in German folk
