Did You Ever Drown a FIyf

Whatever other fate might befall II,
naturalists agree that the common

So little did the fly trouble about
such an obstacle that It kept near the
bottom of the glass, and there for q
quarter Of an hour ran about as freely
as in the fresh air. while 1t at times
crawled across the underside OF the
pasteboard as on the ceiling Of a room.
After being immersed for 20 minutes
the fy's movements were less active,
and at % minutes 1t turned over on its
side, apparently dead. 1t hung sus-
pended in the water just under the
pasteboard, which kept 1t from rising
to the surface, and there 1t remained
for another 25 minutes.
1t was then taken out and placed Oh
a sheet of paper, looking to all appear
aDce dead. Its next fate was to D'
buried by being covered with abou
half teaspoonful of fine salt.
At the end of Is minutes the saline
was shaken off, the fly having thu
