Sydenhan. visited England about once
in generation. In 43O the living in
Britain, tradition tells us, were not able

The CHANGES IN THE FRoc.-No-
where in the animal kingdom is there
so favorable an opportunity for peeDing
into natures workshop as in the meta
morphOses Of the frog. This animal is
a worm when il comes from the egg,
and remains such the first four DAYS OF
its lite, having neither eyes nor ears
nor nostrils nor respiratory organs. II
crawls. II breathes through its skin.
After while neck is grooved into the
flesh. It's soft lips are hardened into .
horny besk. The different organs. one
after another, bud out; then q pair .of
branching gills, and laYt long and lin
ber tail. The worm has become fish.
Three or four days more eIapse, and
the gills sink back into the body. While
in their place others come much more
complex, arranged in vascuIar snlls,
112 in each. But they, too. hare their
day, and are absorbed, toeeiher with
their framework Of bone ars1 cartilage.
