An Ancient Pedleree.

The "tuatera lizard" is said to be perhaps the most remarkable animal now living in New Zealand, and the oldest existing type of reptile" So deeply are naturalists interested in this curious species of animal, which seems to be as closely related to turtles as to lizards, that legislative protection has been secured for it, Unfortunately the eggs of the creature appear not to be covered by the protective act, and Nature expresses qualification that on- ly one man, Mir. Henaghan, who can be trusted, knows where to look for the precious eggs. Before they are all destroyed it is hoped that the biolo- gists will have an opportunity to deter mine how the strange animal is devel- oped, and whether it is more lizard than turtle, or more a turtle than q lizard.

Indian Meal n Lnxnrr.

European agriculturists have not yet given up hope of raising Indian corn as a food product They have relin- quished their original idea of growing it to compete with other grain in pro- ducing cheap meal for the masses. They want to make it an article of luxury for the wealthy mans table. A special kitchen is to be provided in the coming Paris exposition for in- struction in preparing all kinds of In- dian meal dishes, Pamphlets contain Ing many recipes and printed in all European languages will be distribut, ed. The agricultural department of France is back of the scheme.
