FEAT OF A FOX.
Its Remarkable Dieplay of Cunning In
Securing a Meal.
In a field of feeding hares foxes havo
been observed to approach with a slow,
limping motion nnd bolding down their
heads, as if eating clover, until they
were near enough to secure their prey.
The following is an extraordinary in
stance of fox cunning: One week when
the ground was frozen, but bare of
snow, a farmer placed a ben under a
strong, heavy chicken coop. The coop
was boarded on one side and lathed on
the other, the lower lath within an inch
of the ground, which was smooth, but
sloping, with a furrow-like depression
a few inches in depth about two feet
up the slope.
In the morning the hen was gone.
The coop stood Immediately over the
depression, the laths bearing numerous
impressions of nn animal's teeth, and
the small one at the apex was scratch
ed by its claws.
The fox had wasted no strength on
the board trying to push the coop over
in an uphill direction, but he tried his
best on the other side. Failing in this,
be bit and tore at the laths to break
them and finally drew the coop up the
hill over the hollow, dragged out the
hen and made off, leaving no blood,
very few feathers and only three of his
hairs on the laths.—Haqier's Weekly.
Open Winters.
When snow covers the ground it pre
serves vegetable life without develop
ing it Snow Is three times less power
ful as a conductor of heat than rain; it
screens the ground and prevents noc
turnal radiation.
Vegetables, cereals tn particular, can
endure a considerable lowering of tem
perature if the fall of snow precedes
the frost Ground planted to wheat can
pass through a period when the tem
perature falls far below zero If the
snow covers it well. While rain brings
to the ground azote in the form of im
molili or nitric acid, snow enriches the
soil in much greater proportion. A liter
of rainwater contains much less fer
tilising material than the same amount
of hoarfrost or melted snow, nnd when
the winter has been “open” or mild,
when there has been rain Instead of
snow, the farmer is forced to spend
more money for fertilizers than when
the winter has given the earth snow in
abundance.—Harper’s.
Pliny’s Yarns.
Pliny's yarns about human anatomy
were something wonderful. He tells
of a race of savage men whose feet
are turned backward and of a race
known as Monocoli. who have only
one leg. but are able to leap with sur
prising agility. The same people are
also called the Scfapodae. because they
are in the habit of lying on their
backs during the extreme heat nnd
protecting themselves from the sun by
the shade of their feet. These people
dwell not far from the Troglodytae, to
the west of whom again there are a
tribe who are without necks and have
their eyes tn their shoulders.

Our marine corps was organized by

and Rs history continues unbroken
down to the present time. It is the old
est branch of tbe military service and
was originally created to prevent mu
tiny by the sailors, many of whom
were "impressed.”
Then, too, in the days of sailing
ships, and especially iu battle at sea,
the sailors were largely occupied in
maneuvering the vessel. Fighting wus
at close quarters, nnd a large body of
men who bad nothing to do but fight
was of great service. Tbe adveut of
steam and of long range guns made tbe
old style of fighting impossible.
The story of the marine corps ts a
stirring one. The marines distinguished
themselves first in 1779 In the battle
between the Bonhomme Richard and
the Serapls. They had previously, In
1776, taken part in tbe bloodless cap
ture of 100 cannon at New Providence,
tn tbe Bahamas. They fought in Trip
