In the economy of nature the hare Is the one creature that stands between most of the carnivorous animals and starvation. In tho northern woods, Where snow lies on the ground for more than half the year and where vegeta- tion is of slow growth, the hare serves as a machine for converting birch twigs Into muscular, lean meat and providing it hi such quantities that hawks, owls, wildcats, weasels and foxes can live in comparative luxury, A pair of hares-under favorable condi- tions produce 70,000 individuals in four years. Power Stored In Watch Spring*. Many watches make five beats per second, 300 each minute, 18,000 every hour or 432,000 per day. Thus it will be seen that half a dozen turns of the key once a day, taking np but a few seconds of time, store up a modicum of power In the spring which is cut up into nearly 1,000,000 beats.- If we mul- tiply the dally beats by 365%, the num- ber of days In a\ year, we find that the Watch ticks 167,788,000 times while the earth Is making one annual trip around the sun. with a month. \This export fisher had scarcely gono its way when a harsh voiced kingfisher alighted on a dead limb overhanging tho brook twenty yards from where I lay, Tbe bird was not long on the limb before down It went In thq water and m., and on Sept 7th and J,0tb, another special will leave Geneva at 7:15 a. m.

They usually fish at tho foot of some deep pool. Poised on one long, slender leg. tho heron, as Immovable ns If It wcro carved from stone, waits patiently tho passing of some lusty trout from tho rapid, water below Into tho pool. \The wait Is seldom a long one. Sud- denly tbe long neck shoots out like an arrow, and the great bill Is burled for an Instant In the water. Tho aim Is rarely at fault, and when tho bird's head appears in sight again a largo trout usually comes up with It The heron rises lastly from tbe creek, trail- ing Its spindling* logs, and files homo with its savory burden. \Late In the season, when trout begin to congregate where small spring runs empty into the stream, the heron will be found fishing there, acs It seems to know well, os does the Kingfisher, all tho habits of tbe fish it loves to well to feed upon. One heron with a free scope on a trout stream will likely take from it a thousand trout, many of them heavy with spawn, during tbe time this big bird fishes, which is from the tlmo the Ice leaves the creeks in the spring until it forms on them again the fob- lowing winter. \The mink fishes nil winter long as welt as in the summer. In fact, it is during the Icebound period that it is most destructive to trout. \The kingfisher is not so certain in Its aim as the boron, but one failure never discourages this winged marauder. It will resume Its perch on the dead limb —an outlook it Beems to prefer—settle down with Its watchman's rattle cry and watch and dive until the prize is won, \The kingfisher is no stickler for size In trout, but tries for tbe first that comes along.

A catch which it makes In that length of time the best of anglers nowadays would consider something to boast of. \Water snakes, basking by the hun- dreds along every trout stream, fish with so much tact and cunning that they number their prey by thousands from the time they come out of their hibernating places, Which is as soon as the weather begins to get warm, until the approach of winter drives them back into their holes. \There Is no knowing to how great a degree the trout retaliate On the snakes for their warfare, but that they do make reprisals is'known to every an- gler, for many a big trout when dressed is found to have from one to three young water snakes in his stom- ach, \It is fortunate not only for the trout, but for all kinds of bro6k, pond and river flakes, that tbe snapping tur- tle Is of extremely slow growth and that Its eggs are themselves the prey, of birds, snakes, muskrats and various predatory things, for It Is one of the deadliest foes to the finny tribe.

There was a time In countries lar from the sea when primitive man nev- er used salt in bis food, and it was only when nations advanced in civili- sation that salt became an absolute ne- cessity. . 4 But It was not alone as food that salt was valued. Among tho ancient* a Alt spring was regarded ns a gift of the gods, and It was helteveil that any salt found in the soil lent It a peculiar sanc- tity nnd made it a place where ipraylrs were most readily heard, Every Weal that Included salt had a certain sadrjed -character, creating a bond of piety ahd friendship between host and guest; hence tbe expression^ \There Is Salt between us,\ meaning friendship, and to be \untrue to salt\ means to be dis- loyal or ungrateful. } In the middle ages, when all ekiaea and degrees sat at the same board, they were placed according to rank, above or below the great saltcellar, which always stood In the middle and marked the dividing social line. \Above .the salt\ meant \of high degree.\ Be/ low the salt were the yeomanry, serfs and vassals of the feudal days. A good description of this custom may be found hi \Ivanhoe\ Where Cedric, 'the Saxon, entertains his vassals and friends. A pinch of salt Is always considered lucky in cooking. To take anything \with a pinch of salt\ means to excuse or make allowances for It A \salt\ Is a sailorf To salt one's conversation means to make It sparkle. Salt is al- ways employed in a sense of benefit or Btrength. —' The Bible has many references to salt, among them being \Ye are the salt of the earth,\ Matthew v, i£, and St Paul says, \Let your speech be jstl- ways with grace seasoned with salt''- Salt is used by Catholics in baptism.
