GULLIBILITY OF SHEEP.
A fomleal Mtady of tb Kitrrat of
Animal Sl.pldllr.
The utter stupidity of sheep ia per
haps nowhere more Btrongly evidenced
than In the perfect satisfaction with,
which a ewe that has lost ber lamb
will take to a strange lamb around
which has been fastened the skin of
I her dead offspring.
Considering that the skin of the dead
I lamb is often merely thrown loosely
over the back ot tue living lamo, some
times banging almost to the ground on
one side or the other and making the
lamb appear the quaintest kind of ani
mal Imaginable, the ewe's gullibility In
this respect Is remarkable. There can
be no other explanation of ber satisfac
tion than that she really thinks the
muffled little stranger is her own prog
eny; otherwise she would give It no at-
tention whatever.
Its appearance does not seem tu count,
! nor even iu voice. Its smell is every
I thing, which may be seen in any flock
j of ewes and lambs, for while the inotb-
ers certainly appear to know the bleat-
lug of their own children, the identifica
tion is always completed by the ewe
snifling the coat of her lu mil.
I have been looking at two sue)
quaint families iu the lambing pens re
cently, and the picture of a sedate ewe
placidly attending to two weird little
creatures which look as If they have
been balf flayed (one of them was ac
tually dragging Its second skin in the
straw) was the most comical study of
