The creatures which dwelt In the
darkness OF the depths naturally lost
their powers of vision after awhile. 1t
Is the same way with the mole, which
is doubtless descended from progeni-
tors which could see. Blindness In the
mole is the result of n degeneration OF
the optic nerve, the consequence OF
which Is that images formed in the eye
itself are not transmitted to the ami
mails consciousness. Occasionally a
mole can see a little out of one eye
which has retained its communication
with the brain.
1t is not that the mole is born blind,
but that It inherlts tendency to afro
ply Of the visual organs just as peo-
pie derive from their parents an incli-
nation to consumption or other dis.
eases. Some day in the future there
may be no such thing as n mole that is
not entirely and hopelessly blind.

when we behold a wide. turf covered

reflection that the whole OF the superb

years through the bodies Of worms. The
plow is one of the most ancient and
most valuable of mans inventions, but
long before he existed the land was. in
fact, regularly plowcd by carthworms.
II may be doubted whether there are
many other animals which have played
