HILLS WERE ONCE VOLCANOES
ThOueamde Of Years Ago, What Are New Pleasure Resorts, Near Mon-
 treat, Were Go Be Dreaded.

Near Montreal are eight great hills, each bearing two names, and known collectively as the ''MoneFegian Hills," which now are believed to be nothing more than the roots of former vOlca- noes that reared themselves thousands Of feet into the air, and belched lava and Stealning ash on the surrounding district. Some authorities agree that the hills. which now are pleasure re- sorts, in former ages were 2,O0O feet high, but have been cut of.
 On many of the mountain tops are hidden lakes, believed to have at one time been craters. For a long period the peaks are believed to have been worn by water and weather, and the passing ages found them greatly de- creased in size. Then came the gla- cial period, and the movement of the StupendOus sheets of ice from the northeast tore the mountains from their base, Scraped many hundred of feet of earth from the rocks surround Inn them, and transferred it farther south The baked limestone alone withstood the onslaught, and although the softer rock was carried away, the lava beds remained and formed the present-day bills.

@-~---- TURKS TURN DOWN BUTTONS
RefuUo tO uSe Them Bscause They AFO Made From Bones of Doge
 That Formerly Roamed Streets.


 When, was in COnstantinople I made friends with several of the pa- riah dogs that roved the streets, and though they had their drawbacks it always seemed to me that they were likable beasts, and not so great nui- sance as one would suppose they must be. was therefore genuinely sorry. when learned that the remorseleSs march of progress had led to the de- termination to get rid of them. You will remember that the poor dogs. were shipped off to various islands and there left to die, beeause the Turk would not tFansgress against his re- HgiOn by killing them outright. That was five or six years ago and appar- ently the unhappy dogs all met their inevitable fate. Today numbers of Russian refugees are housed on the islands whichywere formerly the dogs prison, and the American Red Cross authorities, who are caring for these particular refugees have set their pro- tegees to'wOrk at making buttons from the dogs bones. l am not altogether surprised to learn that the Turks win not buy the buttons.-Near East.

h.earino of Rut&erNIes

The hearing of certain butterflies,
 the moths and the spiders has been a subject Of much study ny Y. EggNrs. whose results have been reported in a Berlin zOogOgical annual. The seat of hearing is found to be the ''tym- 9panal organ" Of the last ring f0f the
 thorax. The aIr-filied Vesicle or i6ladder of this organ adjoins two very thin spots tn the external chitin. and one of these Is the true frumhead, connected with nerve strand having two sensory cells. while the other, the so-called opposite drumhead, seems to serve as a sounding board to re- enforce vibrations. Experiments with crIckets have shown that the chirplng of the male Is heard only by females having the tymnanal organ intact. The, organ of the butterflies, which is more sensitive. cannot be tested in the same way. but response has been had to very high, shrill tones. such as that made by rubbing cork against wet glass. and in one species to q clutter ing sound made by the wings of the male. Butterflies flying by day seem 70 have hearing organs more generally than those that are active at night.
