FIRST OF FEATHERED THINGS
Archaeopteryx Must Have Been Re-
markabie Looking Bird From Ac-
counts Of Its Appearance.

Today the birds are all quite differ
ent than they were years ago. The
first bird that was ever seen on earth
was called the Archaeopteryx, which
Is a Greek word. meaning "ancient
wing" 1t was a very odd bird. 1t
had long, thick tail. with bows Of
flesh and with feathers growing from
1t. 1t was not like birds tall Is
now, but more like lizards tail. II
had two legs, with which 1t could
walk and perch In the trees. 1t also
had two other limbs like hands, which
1t probably used to climb about the
trees, instead Of flying from bough to
bough, as birds do now. Its eye was
fitted with a sort of armor shield. as
the reptiles. It's beak was armed with
strong teeth.
or course there Is no such bird as
this now, and it is not surprising that
such a bird should pass away. Even
In these days two or three strange
birds have died out.
Men have killed many birds and anil
mails, but In making the world what II
now is, nature has killed far more.
Whole races Of animals have been de-
stroyed by earthquakes and floods.
In time nature changes ell things,
and so she did the birds.

HAVE THEIR OWN LANGUAGE
No Doubt at All That Birds and Beasts
Hold Communication With
Each Other.

That phrase, "dumb animals" be-
Trays more ignorance Of the life around
US than any other ever invented by our
race. for. though no species save man
has an articulate language, no one
who hns watched and attended to the
ways of birds and beasts can doubt
that they very thoroughly manage to
convey to each other their wishes and
intentions. Each. In Its own way, COM
municates with its fellows, and II the
language Is not our language 1t at any
rate serves their purpose exceedingly
well. Certainly the amount Of individ-
uality that there Is among the different
specimens Of the same species can only
be realized by those who have had
much to do with wild creatures. No
one mammal or bird is ever In char
acter and behavior the exact duplicate
Of the next; each differs In some way
from Its neighbor, 80 you can never
depend on any two animals doing ex-
actly the same thing under the same
circumstances-in fact. we find that
individuality reigns as supreme
throughout Nature as It does through
out man. but then. after all, man Is
a part Of Nature.-Frances Pitt In the

No country Is richer in beautiful

these have now become the property

Indirectly responsible for the general
good while preserving their dignity

Throughout Italy. from Turin to Paler-

but perhaps none Is so famous MS the
Pitt palace mt Florence. built upon
hill above the Arno with the beauti-
full Doboli gardens stretching behind 1t.
Count Pitt. chief magistrate of Flor
ence In the fifteenth century. desiring
to outrival Cosimo de- Medici, set him.
self to build palace which should
be the wonder of Italy. He employed
the architect Brunellcschi. whom
Cosimo when building his own palace
had passed over because of his magnif-
icent disregard for expenditure, and
Brunelleschl was given a free hand.
Pitt. however. fell into disgrace for
plotting against the son Of C0simo
and no workman could be found to
continue his half-completed palace.
Thus for a century 1t was to remain,
until Eleanor Of Toledo once more
took 1t In hand and II became-oh,
strange irony THE home of the Medi-
cean grand dukes. The Pitt was not
actually finished until 1889. The sight

pictures. most of them masterpieces.

Mouse Fights Snakes.

Everyone has heard of the remark
able combats Of the Indian mongoose
with venomous snakes, In which little
rikkitikki-tavvi comes of victor. The
fact that the mongoose invariably
survives has led to the suggestion
that It Is immune to snake poison.
Other animals said to be immune are
the pig and the hedgehog.
The experiments Of British nat.
uraltst show that an animal Of the
dormouse family must be added to the
list of immune. This animal is known
as the lerot and IL said to Hght fierce

QUAINT OLD NoRwEelAE CITY
BERGEN Known Tor Many Things D.
sides Its provsrbIaI Wetnsss-
Was Home Of Ole Bull.

The old Norwegian port of Bergen
- known as the rainy city. always
carry an umbrella in Bergen" Is the
rule widely followed both by inhabi-
tants and strangers. That the umbrella
Ia an accepted part of the Bergen cos
tune Is shown by the extravagant old
saying that a man once walked In the
streets OF Bergen without an umbrella,
at which sight the horses were so
frightened that they reared and SHE'D
and even ran away. In spite of Its rep
)utation, Bergen has many beautiful
sunny days, when the only reason for
wearing an umbrella would be to con-
form to custom.
Whatever the atmospheric condl-
tons. the fish market of Bergen is the
most crowded and noisy place In town.
Fishwives are excitedly trying to sell
their Hopping. wriggling wares to un-
decided customers. while other buyers
and vendors grow heated over the
price Of herring or trout.
Away from this fascinating scene Of
confusion, In a quiet little park. Is an
other significant phase of Bergen's In
terests. Here Is statute Of Ole Bull.
Norway's great violinist. Ole Bull was
born In Bergen. and he now lies in Its
graveyard. The city's tribute to this
genius Is this statue Of him, standing.
as his fellow citizens had so often
seen him stand before them. with his
violin ready to play, but listening first
to the rain and the birds and the talk
of men that he might convert them into
the language Of the violin. This simple
statue embodies more truly the spirit
Of Bergen than Its scrambling, money
boarding markets. or its fiippant at
titude toward the weather probabili-
ties.
