tubes of various kinds, shapes and

sticks placed lengthwise, while others
are like log houses of straw, the pieces
being fastened crossWise. These min

with tiny snail-shell fasteEed to the
walls. and moreover, the shells are not
always empty. Quite often you may
find living snails securely attached,
and thus compelled to move about at
the will Of their landlord. Other tubes
are built entirely of bits of moss and
leaves. The commonest forms are
those composed of little pebbles Or
grains Of sand. These are usually very
regular and smooth cylinders. in which
the grains are all of nearly equal size,
but among them you may frequently
find some with several larger stones
