Natures Children
BY LILLIAN cox ATHEY.
Little Wood Satyr.
Cissia eurytus.

TN YOUR walks in the woods in the
early Summer, you may have the
pleasure of this fairy's company.
L At one time, she was seen only in
the quiet aisles of forests and
deep woods. So many of her haunts
have been destroyed, it is not unusual
to find her in the fields, along the
hedgeroads and like places.
Because she is such a tiny creature,
you watch her as she flutters about
the grasses. Not looking for food, but
place on which to anchor her eggs
Then her hungry brood will soon come
along and feed upon these grasses
about them, grow up and by Autumn
will seek place that will afford them
shelter. This place of refuge is sought
at the surface of the soil, and here, by
diligent search and a knowledge of
their ways, you may find them, numb
from the cold and utterly Indifferent
to all that is going on about them.
The warm Spring days timber them
up and they steal forth to appease
their hunger and then to change to
chrysalids in time to emerge as butter
flies in May or early June. There is
one brood a year.
This satyr may be seen west to the
Mississippi Valley and as far as the
Dakotas, south to Nebraska, Kansas
and in the central part Of Texas. She
is known in Wisconsin, Michigan and
New England. In fact, she is seen
over the whole United States. east and
south of the States mentioned.

the mouth at the same time. They
we're held in the form Of "V," and
the fingers of the right hand stopped
and opened the holes of one pipe, while
the other was controlled by the left
hand.
The ancient Greeks also made use
of the two-piped flute, but the Syrinx,
or Panpipe, came into more fame in
Greece.
The Panpipe, also called pipes of
Pan," was made up of series of hol-
low reeds of different lengths. The
number of reeds or pipes, was not al
ways the same-there might be a
dozen or there might be 20-but they
were fastened in row and no two
were of the same length. BY blowing
on the open ends of the reeds, the
Greeks were able to make musical
sounds.
Not knowing who had invented the
instrument, the Greeks made up a
story in which Pan, the shepherd god,
was given the honor They said that
he had pursued a nymph named
SyrlnX, DuC tnaL just as ne was clasp
ing her in his arms she turned into
reeds. From the reeds, the tale goes
on to say, the god made the first Pam
pipe.
The modern flute is a single tube,
or pipe, with mouthpiece at the side,
not at the extreme end. It has an
important place in the orchestra.

Mink Habits
BY d. C. PEATTIE.

IONE of the mammals that we think
of as rare-at least when we come
to pay for a coat made of his hide
is the mink, but there are actually a
good many records of mink around
the District.
The mink is one Of the creatures
that are not likely to vanish before
the loss of the forests, for while one
of them is scarcely able to shift for
himself among the haunts of man, as
is the skunk or weasel, he has many
of the qualities that make an endur-
ing species. He is a skillful killer
of grouse, mice, squirrels and other
small creatures, he remains active all
Winter and can swim under water,
climb trees, disappear in plain sight
and is wondrous wary of hunters and
traps. His enemies, the hawks and
the foxes, are not one bit quicker than
he. The mink will hunt by day or by
night. He is the special enemy of
the grouse, having nose for these
ground-loving birds, which delight to
rest together in fiocks. In his at
tack he is almost sure to catch one
of them.
This might make the mink seem an
undesirable animal. But he keeps
down the rabbits, rats and mice, and
any creature that will do that surely
deserves our gratitude.
think I must have been seeing
mink for some time before I was sure
of their identity. They are larger
than the weasel, with a thicker tail.
The color is nearly black, really a
very dark brown, with spot of white
on the chin. There is something very
squirrel-like in the tail and rat-like
in the eyes and the set of the ears.
But the gait of the mink-that low
hung, long chassis, that crouching
dash-shows at once that in reality the
mink is Of the predatory, voracious
weasel family.
cannot say that they are lovable
