Tree Toad Changes Color

It Is a well-known fact that tree
toads or tree frogs can change their
color through a considerable range,
from nearly white to nearly black, in
harmony with the surface on which
they are resting. Thus they take on
the hues of the trees and shrubs ON
which they live. The tree frogs form
the connecting link between the true
frogs and toads. They live chiefly in
trees which they climb by means of
their claw-shaped toes. They are small
and are more active and brighter in
color than true frogs. They utter loud
piping noises. Even though these crea-
lures live in trees they return to the
water to lay their eggs. The hind legs
are long as in ordinary frogs, but
since they jump very little If at all
the muscles Of these limbs are slight

Rover's Friend :

Rover, the pet dog owned by Wal
ter Pratt Of Bowdoinham, Me-, gets
along famously with the family cat.
and the cat always sleeps at night
between the paws Of Rover. One
night, after the family had retired, it
was aroused BY scratching and a
low barking at the front door. When
the door was opened in walked the
cat, with one foot caught In trap !;
behind came Rover, carefully holding
up the chain Of the trap. Far up a
neighboring stream trappers had set
traps for muskrats, and Kitty evident
ly walked into one. Rover must have
heard her cry and gone to the rescue,
for he had evidently searched, found
the trapped kitten and lifted the trap
from the water; then freeing his
friend as much as possible, carried the
chain all the way home New York
World.

THE AUTO IN THE NEAR
! EAST


The field vice-president of Wash
ington College, Maryland, and his
party Of twenty-five students are now
at the most easterly end OF their
foreign tour. DR.. Perry's seventh
article, dated from Damascus, states
in part, II have now reached the
extreme eastern end Of my trips with
seven hours difference in time and
seven thousand miles between me
and home. 1t is Sunday AFTERNOON
and nature insists on siesta. Tne
foreigner has no business on the
street between twelve and four
O'Clock P. M. The sun is on ram
page. At five o'clock l go out for
drive to get view OF the moon on
Mount Herman, twenty miles south
west. Tomorrow morning leave
for the Sea of Galilee. Altho but
1923 miles south and west, yet the
distance requires an eight hour
journey by train and a descent OF
from 1858 feet above sea level to 63S,
feet below sea level. Some folks go
by auto but since the road is UNI
finished in spots decided to depend
upon the train. In Syria thus far
have used eight autos for my party;
one Moon, three Chambers, two
Chevrolets and two Hudsons, all
equipped with balloon tires. To-
morrow we have our first train ride
in this country. Last evening |
saw the first sedan in Syria, a
Dodge. The open cars are univer-
sal, including, of course, the omni-
present Ford touring car. These
are heard, seen and felt everywhere.
The Ford touring costs $3.50; a
Buick touring, over $4,000.
