But the sounds | Choice stock of Christmas groceries and vegetables. they produce include the rubbing | together of their limbs or wing cov- | ers and the vibration of their wings, 180 they cannot always be spoken of | 8 voices. Flies and bees undoubt- | edly mean something when they hum i louder and louder, Landoise, the famous naturalist, | has calculated that to produce the jsound of F by vibrating its wing, they vibrate 352 times a second, and [the bee to create ' A vibrates 440 times a second. A tired bee hums on, E sharp. This change is, perhaps, in- voluntary, -but undoubtedly at the {command of the will, and is similar to the voice. When seeking honey a bee hums | to F sharp. Landoise noticed three | different tones emitted by insects-- |a low one during flight, a higher one {'when the wings are held so that they cannot vibrate, and a higher one yet when the insect is held so that none of his limbs can be moved. No music is as familiar as that | produced by the locust, grasshopper, {nd crickets, and, although they Aare not produced by the mouth, they an- wer as calls, and are undoubtedly a language to a certain extent; in- deed, their calls have been reduced to written music. . The music of grasshoppers is produced in four dif- ferent ways, according to Scudder. First, by rubbing the base of one wing upon the other, using for that purpose veins running through the middle portion of the wing; second, by a similar method, by using the | veins of the inner part of the wing; | third, by rubbing the inner surface jot the hind legs against the outer 374 King Street.

The male and the fe- male brood alternately. At night the male is always on the nest, as it Dossesses greater warmth than the female. | These birds perform their duties with the greatest skill, without apy noise or breakage of the eggs. The incubation lasts forty-five days on an average, sometimes fifty days, never continues beyond that. When the chicklings hatch out they can be heard trying to break the shell of the egg" Sometimes they succeed in do- ing so, but usually the father breaks the egg under his breast-bone, tears the inside skin with his bill, and frees the chickling. Upon first reach- ing the air the chickling remains limp and weak. But the warmth of the parent soon revives it, and a few hours afterwards we posing to run about, exercising its long , top- pling over at each step, and recom- | mencing again its stumbling journey. | Four days after their hatching the chicklings begin to eat.
