BIRDS ARE TAUGHT TO FLY Have to Be Instructed by Parents ‘Much the Same as Children Learn : to Walk and Talk. : Birds do not fly or sing, nor do fish swim entirely from instinct. They have in many cases to be taught by their parents, much in the same way as children are taught to walk and talk, : A falcon flies around a bough in wide circles to show her family how it is done. Then she pushes one of the youngsters off with her wing, being directly under it at the time. The next day, when the little falcons have learned how to float-in the air, the mothér follows them as they fly, driving them up against the wind, then round in graceful curves. i : Young ducks enter the water with‘out being urged, but geese have to be shown their way. The old birds urge them on from . behind, gabbling con-

tinuously. At first the goslings are allowed a very short swim, but the lesson is lengthened from day to day until the little ones learn to go into the water alone. :

Among all animals the most eareful! teachers are weasels. The weasell teaches her young to run, climb, jump! and measure distances.” She goes tirough each performance first and the young are induced to imitate her.' Day after day the training gpes on and then they are led off on a real hunt. i ‘ ¢ Watch a cat with her kittens. ' As. soon as they are big enough to move about she will play with a ball or bit ‘of paper as if she herself were a Kkitten. She thus teaches her little ones to use their teeth and claws, and when

their early lessons are over she brings a real mouse or bird for them to “play” with.—Cincinnati Enquirer. !

PATRON SAINT OF MEXICO Legend of the Virgin of Guadalupe and Church Built for Her : in 1709. ;~ The Virgin of Guadalupe is the patron saint of Mexico, and more especially of the Mexican Indians. According to legend, the Virgin Mary appeared to a converted Indian, hamed Juan Diego, in 1531, on the hill of Tepeyacac, near the City of Mexico, and addressing him in his own language, told him that she wished a temple built to her on that very spot. At the foot of the hill is the church of Nuestra Nenora de Guadalupe; completéd 'in 1709. It contains an exquisite picture of the Virgin, said to have been miraculously imprinted by her on Diego’s blanket. - Guadalupe Hidalge, with the sanctuary of the Virgin of Guadalupe, is situated about two miles north of the City of Mexico. : - |

Rare White-Tailed 'Squirrel.

" A peculiar animal which is engaging the attention of-the government biological survey is the white-tailed squirrel, known as the Kaibab squirrel. Almost nothing is known ahout it because of its limited range—one 0f the smallest covered by any North American animal. It is found only in Kaibab plateau in northern Arizona. The creature seems to have been cut off from all migration by the great canyon to the south and by the impassable deserts on every other side. Forest rangers throughout the Southwest have been instructed to watch for specimens outside this region, but thus far have reported no success. One variety of squirrel, with slight traces of white on its tail Is prevalent throughout the South and Southwest, and has been mistaken frequently for the Kaibab. |

Curious Custom.

- It was once a curious custom in England to carry wax effigies of the dead—if they were distinguished enough—in their funeral processions. It was also* customary to leave the effigies near the grave for some time thereafter, and the mourhing friends of the deceased used to composé elegies, rhymed laments and similar productions, which they would write out on paper and pin to the clothing of the effigy. : :

A number of the quaint old efligies are still preserved at Westminster abbey, where they are stored in the Islip chapel, and one at least, that of Frances, duchess of Richmond, is still to be seen beside her grave in Henry Vll's chapel. : _ - .

Meade's Compliment to Lee.

Gen, Robert E. Lee received a striking compliment from an enemy on the day of his surrender at Appomattox courthouse. He and General Meade of the federal army had been friends in West Point, and, after the formalities of capitulation had been got through, Lee sdid to Meade pleasantly : - S

. “Meade, years are telling on you; your hair is getting quite gray.” “Ah, General Lee,” was Meade’s prompt reply, “it is not the work of years. It is you who are responsible for these gray hairs.”—Detroit News.

Push Some More.

A wealthy motorist, while traveling through a 'Mississippi town, approached a gasoline station only to find the tender a lazy country boy.

“Here, boy,” said the motorist. “I want some gasoline. And get a move on you! You'll never get anywhere in the world unless you push. Push is essential. When I was young, I pushed and that got me where I am.” “Well, governor,” replied the boy, “I reckon you'll have to push again, ‘cause we ain’'t got a drop o’ gas in the place.”—Forbes’ Magazine.

Mrs. Howard Bowser of Syracuse was the guest of her sister Mrs. F. W. Black several days last week.

Hudson Scott of Columbia City stopped over with his sister Mrs. Arthur Kelley Thursday on his way to Goshen, e e e
