of this kind as the museum could sup

and other articles which are dug up in
the old world fields and which reach
the museum a mass of a thousand

Frog hunting is always done at

better. Nothing can be done at catch

him a strange fascination. The boat
Is moved cautiously toward him. care
being taken TO prevent it from swerv-

the full glare of the light from his eyes
