sill fiying-reptile, the pterodactyI, is the
bat.
Skins of the prairie dog, all animal so
abundant in Texas as to be a nuisance,

manufacture of gloves.
lunar rainbows are occasionally
seen, but as the light forming them is
borrowed from the sun, they present
the same features as do solar ones.
The white, shaggy borse of the ele.
waited plains of Pamir, in Central Asia,
is by some regarded as the original
stock of the many exiating species.
Mines tremor indicators, for the
purpose of estimating the amount of
