Animals Mcks Little Respor.se to Picture*
During tests made in I'.erliu by L>r. Victor Mendel, animals and birds sl iowid a rather surprising lack of response to iniiviiu pictures. The pictu res were especially selected for etu-n mfiiiml ami animal urotiy. and the ex-p t ' i iments were made hi au exhibition room especially adapted to the purpose. T h e response of dogs was practically nil. Neither St. Bernard, set ter, spaniel , poodle nor collie gave the sl ightest nlteniioii to the pic tures ' Only a little tin••ngrul of doubtful origin evinced a momentary interest hy snltling uf the human figures on the screen. The exper iments with cats were much more favorable. (»f live subjects , three responded actively, showing light on the appearance of • big dog on the serein. Kxtierinientc with birds were rather negative. Qee»e and ducks, ehiekens and pigeons paid some intention, while owls showed great latere.-1. Smi-ll birds and barnyard fowl showed anxiety when s hawk appeare-l In liielr line of vision. A squirrel displayed interest when a we*>el made lis appearance on tlM screen, but reptiles and fish \ \ n t \ as might have b*":i-expected, quite in different.
Fez la Disappearing The red cap worn by Turkish m'.>n
received its name from Fez, u city in Morocco, where fuch caps were first made. Fez was long a scat of Arabian learning in Africa and Is still regarded a s u sacred city of Islam. Until recent l imes the city had n monopoly of the manufacture of Fez caps, It being supposed that Ihe dye which gives the caps their dull crimson hue could uot be obtained elsewhere. Th i s dye is made of a berry which grow-* in profusion in the vicinity of Fez. The fez is made brlmless to allow the wearer to bow his forehead to the carpet while praying In the mostpio. This form of headgear, however, Is fast losing i ts i#lace in the nat ional costume of Turkey.
Expression la Old "Pay ing through the nose" menus to
pay a fancy price for a thing—to pay more than it is worth—to get stung. T h e origin of the expression is lost hi obscur i ty . There was n legend that Odin, the Norse god. Imposed I tax re-aembllng the—modern- poll tax-.—-!«-Swcdcn it was called a nose tax, because it was a penny a nose. In defaul t of payment the nore was supposed to be the forfeit. "Paying th rough the nose" may have originated with this myth. The French have a similar phrase—"payer pur lc nez."— Pathfinder Magazine.
Feed Through Roots Hoots anchor the t rees to thr»
ground, absorb water from the soil, and t ranspor t water to the stent, says the American Tree associat ion. Withou t roots, t rees could not s t and op, and wi thout roots t rees would starve, for they supply water and food to the s tem, branches, twigs, leaves and oilier pa r t s of the crown. T h e principal work of the big roots near the s t em Is to help the t rees s tand up, while tlie fine root hai rs at the end of the rootlets a re the ones that absorb the w.ilcr from the soil.
