RrOOtlinR Snakes

The python lays eggs and matches them by developing high degree of heat, as has been proved in the case of the Indian and African species. says the Youngstown Telegram.
 The first careful investigations of this subject were made in ls4l by the renowned naturalist, Achille Va. lenciennes, in the Jardin des Plantes. Paris. A python there laid 80 eggs within three hours, which at first were oval, but pointed toward the poles. The shells were soft and of n gray color. They soon changed to a perfect egg shape and became white. and the shells hardened somewhat. although they remained pliable. like leather, and were lusterless and rather rough. Their length varied from a to 42 inches.
 After laying the eggs the snake gathered them together in @ heap under the cover she had in her box. wound the rear part of her body around the base of this heap. and then formed cone shaped spiral of the rest of her body around the whole. her head closing the top. Not a sin gle egg was visible.
 After 66 days the first young ones crawled out They were about two inches long. The temperature in the center of the heap of eggs was lO5 degrees F., while that of the box was only 72.5 degrees F.-Philadel- phia Record.

The Girl .t ,hs R.rrirah..

That afternoon I strolled about with Field. We came to barricade. A very pretty girl guarded 1t with a sword. She sternly demanded the parole or oountersign. Icaught hold of her and kissed her and showed my pistols. She laughed. As was armed with dirk and pistols, wore a sash and was unmistakably Latin Quarter etudisnt, as shown by long hair, rakish cap on one side, red necktie and single eyeglass, was everywhere treated as a man and brother, friend and equal, warrior and-by the girls-almost like first cousin. Field shared the glory. of course. And we made a great deal out of it and were thought all the more of in consequence. Vive la jeunesse Memoirs by Charles God frey Leland.
