OF fossil beetles the variety is end

Dragon flies there are, too, and it should
not be forgotten to mention the Rall
flies, the females of which lay their
eggs in the bark Of trees and other
plants, depositing at the same time .
poison that causes an abnormal growth
of vegetable tissue. useful to the newly
Matched young for food and to man for

the bug world Millions Of years ago.
during the so-called paleozoic epoch Of

that time prevailing in the world being
most favorable to his propagation.

the arc of their own orbit for the great

grief to meet such people. greater
grief to talk with them. and the
most grievous grief Of all to argue
with them. They do not understand
distractions of thought To them pure
mathematics is an absurdity. for every
thing is matter of feet and inches and
squares and rectangles. as they have
observed in furnishing their homes. In
the midst Of social discussions you are
unpleasantly forced to notice that they
are drawing on their own experience
for the facts and on their wives i'm
