seen, has been proven by Q
series of Interesting experiments
carried on In France. Not all
animals have this amazing fac
ulty, but several are blessed With
1t, as has already been discov-
cred.
The experiments were under
taken at the suggestion Of David
Allen, a resident Of Australia
and q corresponding member.
who wrote to the institute Of his
experiments with sheep and
cattle when being driven across
country. In 4 place where the
presence Of water was. wholly
unexpected. he says, the leading
animals would suddenly lift their
heads and draw long breaths.
Then they would abandon the
beuten tracks and start running
through the bush. Sometimes
they would run q mile and a
half or two miles and could not
be stopped by the drivers. their
course Invariably leading to =
pond or spring hitherto unknown.
The experiments were made on
a water rat. First Its eyes were
blinded by a bandage, and then

which was whirled round until
all sense Of direction must have
been obliterated. Upon being
released. without a moments
hesitation II started directly for
the pond. several hundred yards
distant.
Frogs and toads were taken to
a distance Of three or four
miles from water and turned
loose. It seemed to take them
only q few seconds to locate the
water. One blind old toad
showed the instinct In tho same
degree as the others. :.
The nature or source Of this
Is not yet clearly discerned. The
observers have named 1t the
