It Hum Ttvo Complete nml Independ ent Norvoun SyMcniK. There aro few Instances of double birth In which two Individuals arc In separably Joined together, but among animals It Ih a common occurrence. A case in point Is tho chameleon, long fa mous for itit power of changing color. The nervoUH centers in one lateral half of the chameleon go on Independ ently of those In the other. Notwith standing tho strictly symmetrical con struction of the animal iih to Its two halves, they move quite Independently of one another and convoy separate Impressions to their respective centers of perception. The consequence Is that when the animal Is agitated its move ments resemble those of two animals, or, rather, perhaps, two halves of ani mals glued together. Each half wishes to go Its own way, and there Is no con cordance of action. The chameleon, therefore, Is the only four legged ver tebrate that Is unable to swim. It be comes ho frightened when dropped Into water that all faculty of concentration Is lost, and the creature tumbles about as If In a state of Intoxication. The chameleon, moreover, may be fast asleep on one side and wide awake on the other. Cautiously approached at night with u candle so as not to awak en the whole animal at once, the eye turned toward tho light will open and begin to niovo and the corresponding side to change color, whereas the other side will remain for a longer or shorter time In a torpid, motionless and un changed state with Its eye fast Hhut. I Exchange. DIET DELUSIONS. They Conic Dimtii to Vn Krom the Old Ilurbiiroun Ti-IIicm. Some diet delusions are of most mod ern date, while others are of most re spectable antliitilty. Among tho latter Is that very ancient survival, tho no tion that particular foods are "good" for particular things or effects. This Is an almost direct descendant of the notion, held with greater or less unanimity by nearly all suvugc and barbarous tribes, that tho ilesh or vis corn of birds and animals possessing particular qualities will be likely to produce the sanio qualities In those who eat them. Thus Nero used to banquet on night ingales' tongues In the hope of Improv ing his voice, and the savage cut out and devoured the heart of tho bear, the liver of the buffalo, etc., believing that the strength and courage of these animals would thereby bo transferred to himself. It is probable that tho most grow- some of ancestral rites cannibalism- was largely duo to the same lcllof, at though, of course, In Neanderthal duyB primitive man would have no more hesitancy about eating his enemy after he had killed hi in than ho would in de vouring n bear or a deer. In fact, the early converts of tho missionaries In the South Sea Islands referred to their favorite dish as "long pig." Every known race has at sonio time been cannibal. McClure's Maga zine. Mncyar Manic. Of Magyar art music seems to havo gained tho widest admiration, and lt Is certain that musical executants of the first order, and In the case of Liszt of unique grandeur, have Justified part of the expectations with which musical Europe has long looked upon Hungary. Magyar music can be likened to noth ing more aptly than to tho exclusively Hungarian river Thelss. Capricious und majestic, teeming with life and silting up for miles, surrounded by charming llotiture of water lilies and alder trees and suddenly again by poi sonous marshes and swamps, such Is tho Thelss, such Is Hungarian music stirring, bewildering, unspeakably sad dening, Inexpressibly exhilarating. It Is the music of rhapsodic souls, of In toxication, of tho battlefield, of wild war dances after the victory. But, llko the great river, It cannot bo regulated. Nineteenth Century. Governor Loglnokl Wounded. St. Petersburg, May 15. Telegrams from many towns in tho provinces state that tho workmen mostly ceased work, but that thoro were few dis turbances except nt Vologda, whero serious rioting occurred.
