THEIR OWN LANGUAGE
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 a V man
has an articulate language, no one
who has 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, CONS
municates with its fellows, and If the
language is not Il language 1t at any
rate serves their purpose exceedingly
we'll. 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, 50 you can
depend or any two animals doing e1-
actly the same thing under the same
circumstances-in fact, we find that
individuality reigns as supreme
throughout Nature as 1t does through
out man, but then, after all, man is
g part Of Nature.-Frances Pitt in the

Arctic Terms Love tho Cold,

For a long time it was thought that
the golden plover bore off the palm for
length Of flight between summer and
winter homes, but now that distinction
Is awarded to the arctic tern. This
bird breeds as far north as 1t can
find anything stable on which to con-
struct its nest 1t has been found with
|in seven and a half degrees Of the
pole. And that nest was found sur
rounded by. a wall Of newly fallen
snow which the mother bird had care
fully scooped out from round her
chick.
The tern arrives In the far north
about June Is. and leaves again for
the south toward the end Of August,
when the young are able to fly strong
II Two or three months later the
birds are found skirting the edge Of
the antarctic continent, 1900 miles
away. What their track Is over that
vast space no one yet knows.

FIRST OF. FEATHERED THINGS
A~rchaeopteryx Must Have Been a Re-
markable Looking Bird From Ac-
counts Of Its Appearance.

Today the birds are all quite differ
ent than they We're years ago. The
first bird that was ever seen on earth
was called the Arclaeopteryx, which
is a Greek word, meaning "ancient
wing" 1t was a very odd bird. 1t
had a long, thick tail, with bows OF
flesh and with feathers growing from
it. 1t was not like a birds tail is
now, but ore Like a lizards tail. 1t
had two legs, with which it could
walk and perch in the trees. 1t also
had two other limbs like hands, which
it probably used to climb about the
trees, instead Of flying from bough to
Dough, as birds do now. It's eye was
fitted with q sort of armor shield, as
the reptiles. It's beak was armed, with
strong teeth. @A = go
OF course there is no such bird as
this now, and it is not surprising that
such a bird shpuld pass away. Even
in these days two or three strange
birds have died out.
Men have killed many birds and ami.
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 foods.
In time nature changes all things
and so she did the birds.

Let it be remembered that though
all arts are long, the art Of playwrit-
ing is the longest. And after years
given to the study and practice Of it
you will find-preeisely as in acting,
writing, painting, sculpture, music,
only more so-that it is never to be
fully mastered. Bvery time you at
tempt a drama you learn something
more about how to do it; and some:

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
uralist show that a animal of the
dormouse family must be added to the
list OF immune. This animal is known
as the lerot and is said to fight fierce
~ With vipers. Large doses Of vi.
per's poison were infected into one
lerot, from which. injection no Ill ef-
fects followed. On ono occasion 4
ierot was badly b~ittenEin the eye by

QUAINT OLD NORWEGIAN CITY
Bergen Known for Many Thinss Do.
66es lts Prsvsrbiai Wstnsss-
Was Homo o. Ole Dull.

The old Norwegian port Of Bergen
Is known as the rainy city, always
carry an umbrella In Bergen" is the
rule widely followed both by inhabl-
tants and strangers. That the. umbrella
Is an accepted part Of the Bergen cos
tune is shown blythe extravagant cid
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 cOndi-
tons, the fish market of Bergen is the
most crowded and noisy place in town.
Fishwives r excitedly trying to sell
their Hopping, wriggling wares to UNI
decided customers, while other buyers
and vendors grow heated owe the
price Of herring or trout.
Away from this fascinating scene Of
confusion, in a quiet little park, is an
otherNsign!icant phase Of Bergen's in
terests. Here is a statute Of Ole Bull,
Norway's great violinist. Ole Bull was
born in Bergen, and he now lies in it's
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 it's scrambling, money
boarding markets, or it's ,fiippant at
titude toward the weather probabili,
ties.

MOST FAMOUS Of PALACES
Building Constructed BY sruns''esen'
for Count Pitt 10 the Glory
Of Florence, italy.

No country is richer In beautiful
palaces than Italy. In most instances
these have now become the property
of the nation, so that the taxpayer Is
indirectly responsible for the general
good while preserving their dignity
and safeguarding their treasures.
Throughout Italy, from Turin TO Paler-
mo, these monuments to the genius
of the Middle ages are to be found,
but perhaps nom is so famous as the
Pitt palace at Florence, built upon
a hill above the Arno with the beauti-
full Boboll gardens stretching behind 1t.
Count Pitt, chief magistrate OF Flor
ence in the fifteenth century, desiring
to o~utrival Cosimo de- Medicl, set him.
self to build a palace which should
be the wonder of Italy. He employed
the architect Brunelleschi, whom
Cosimo when building his own palace
had passed over because Of his magnif-
icent disregard for expenditure, and
Brunelleschi was given a free hand.
Pitt, however, fell into disgrace for
plotting against the son OF Cosimo
and no workman could be found to
continue his half-completed palace.
Thus for a century it was to remain,
until Eleanor Of Toledo once more
took 1t in hand and it became-oh,
strange irony THE home Of the Medi-
Gear grand dukes. The Pitt was not
actually finished until 1889. The sight
seer Is aware as he wanders through
this vast building today, and gazes
at it's walls lined with five hundred
pictures, most Of them masterpieces,
that he is rather in a royal palace than
a picture gallery, and he doubts not
the truth of Macchiaveli's verdict
that the Pity palace sis greater and
more splendid than the. house Of any
other private citizen whatsoever"
