Aeld Not Only zoe to Tin.

The popular idea that only acid sub
stances attack tin is wrong. Fish, as
paragus, beans, pumpkins and spin
ach are not acid, and yet their corro-
sion Of fin is quite marked. This
is probably due to antino compounds,
substances related to ammonia. In the
case OF shrimps the cans are often
eaten through in a comparatively short
time. SO alkaline is the meihylamine
contained In shrimps that workmen in
the cannerles find the skin peeling on
their hands. Observation by some can
ners led to the discovery that #
shrimps We're iced for day before
canning. the corrosive action Of the
juices was greatly diminished. This Is
now the universal practice. In add
ton the cans are lined with paper to
prevent the contact Of the shrimps
and the tin. ssae.-ri

Wnd Animals Fear Acquired.

The fear which all Wild animals
have for man is an acquired charac-
teristic. THIS is amply shown by the
fact that in the far wilds of the Cana
dian Rockies. where a man is seldom
seen, the grouse are so tame that they
may be killed with clubs. AS William
4. Hornaday says, these untutored
birds seem TO have but two ldeas-to
feed on the ground and fly into a low
tree If frightened. A bird with only
two ideas is not long for this world,
and the fool hen that loiters along
trail usually finds her way into fry
Ing pan. Yet this bird Is the western
prototype of the wary ruffed grouse
of New England, and old chronicles
show TINT shy bird was once so tame
that it could be caught with horse
hair loop on the end OF long stick.
