Who knows why birde sleep standing on
one leg? The position seems most un-
natural. Reasoning in advance, we should
pronounce it a tiresome, if not an impoe•
sable attitude. Yet the canary tucks its
head ender ite wing, draws up one foot,
and goes to sleep, apparently with quite
as much comfort as we experience on the
beet of mettreeses. A. writer in Horse
and Stable notes a similar, though less ab-
normal, habit on the part of horses, who,
it amens, are in many oases very averse
to lying down. The writer once rode a
mare seventy miles in a single day. The
stable in whioh she was put for the night
was as comfortable as it could well be
made; but she • stood up all night long.

Against the manger. There are horses
that have never been seen to lie
,down, nor have any marks of their
laving done eo ever been found
upon their bodies. I recall one that for
-fifteen years ocoupied a partioular stall in
my grandfather's stable. Up to the hour
he died no one ever saw him lying down,
'although epeeist watch was sometimes
kept after he had baen driven for eight or
thn hours. 'Unless a horse lies down regu-
larly his rest cannot be complete, and his
joints and sinews stiffen. It is true that
some horses that always sleep in a standing
volition continue to work for Many piers,
but it is equally true that they would live
longer and work better if they rested
naturally. Young horse.from the country
are liable to refuse to lie down when &at
put into a stable in town, and the injurious
• habit may beooine confirmed anises special
pins are taken to induce a ohange. The
Indisposition to lie down is often very pro-
nounced in sick horses. They seem to have
an instinctive fear that if they lie down
• they may never be able to rise, and continue
On their feet till their limbs refuse to bear
them up.
