YALE UNIVERSITY has just
come into possession of a
curiosity which. in its way, may
fairly be regarded as the most
remarkable discovered by science
within recent years. It is
'pteTanodon," a flying reptile of great
size, which, when the creature was alive,
in the far-off days of the Cretaceous
Epoch, six or seven millions of years
ago, must have had a spread of about
twenty-five feet from wingtip to wing
tip.
The animal. or rather its skeleton,
was dug out of a chalk cliff in western
Kansas, and is now being put together
by a distinguished scientist, DR.. George
F. Eaton. at the Peabody Museum, IN
New Haven. Its head alone must nave
been fully six feet long including an
enormous beak and q curious crest,
which served purpose presently 10 be
described.
Being provided with a pouch like that
Of pelican, it had an astonishing swat
lowing capacity and as it scared ever
the sea after the manner of a modern
flsh-hawk it would probably swoop
down at intervals and scoop up its .inly
victims by dipping its lower mandible
into the water and gathering them in
as a locomtive takes its supplies Of
steam making fluid aboard while going
at full speed.
It is supposed that all of the pterodAe-
tyls-an order of winged reptiles TO
which the pteranodon belonged-sOught
their food in this fashion. being verita-
BILE lizards of prey. They had no tails,
however, and their wings resemoled
those of bats; yet they seem to nave
been more nearly related to crOcOoiles
than to any other animals now survlv-
ing on the earth.
A veritable geological paradox was
this type Of creature, which was con-
temporary with the ancient toothed
birds, such as the ichthyornis- Appar-
entity nature made experiments with
two kinds of flying things simultaneous
ly-the bird and the bat-Winged reptile,
their wings being constructed on entire
" different anatomical and mechanical
principles. One proved better than the
other. and the pterodactyl, in obedience
to the law of the survival of the fttest,
became extinct
Pterodactyls have been found in
considerable numbers In both the Old
and the New Worlds, but none of them
approaching in size the monster spect-
men discovered in Kansas. UD to now,
indeed, It was not imagined that any
of them ever grew to be anything like
SO big.
Furthermore. none of the European
Species so far as known, possessed the
huge crest extending backward from
the head, and stihened by a bone like a
knife blade, which was such striking

face toward the river, but he had

weather got her sprinKling pot to work

him under the nearest shade tree. He
was a martyr some more.
He stood there with his back
bumped up and the water running
down his spine, and Mrs. Bowser never
came to the door to call him in and
beg his pardon. Indeed, as the rain
came down harder and a policeman
across the street yelled to him to move
on. he heard the guilty woman sing

the man she loves and to extricate him

usually entertaining story which Is all
ed with surprises.
Mr.. Strfnger gives much of his time
and attention to his Canadian fruit

the remoter portions of the Canadian
northwest roughing it in the midst of
trappers and Indians. Indeed, Mr..
Stringer embarl1s on one Of these ex-
peditions once every year. Last year it
was to Sicily and Morocco; the year be-

curl-shaded. cherubic prettiness that
she might be characterized with much
aptness as "a profound treatise on the
