thought of asking any public conf

Welt points to the immense value of
these privileges and the thousands
of dollars which it is necessary to
tax the people in order to improve
the waterways of the country and
pertinently asks why the private
benehciaries should not pay an ad-
equate return for their privileges,
such returns to be expended on the
waterways, and he clearly intimates
that there must be some such pro-
vision i'll every measure of this
character which is to receive his
approval. Moreover, he insists that
every such grant must be limit ed
so that it shall revert, in time, to
the government that future genera
tions may dispose of it as they may
see fit and for the best interests of
the community. Had this policy
been pursued from the foundation
of the Government the returns
would by now be sufficient to meet
all the expenses of the national
government.

Odd DOings Of Enrthworms.

Ever since Darwin wrote his re-
narkable book on earthworms, the
general public has taken an interest
In these lowly creatures. Every
body has observed thousands of
them on the cement walks during
and after a rain; but the true canse
o, these remarkable wanderers Is
not often written about. The fact
Is that earthworms can move about
only when the ground and the grass
Is vet. The truth of this 4! ea"ily
shown by placing an earth worm on
some dry sand, when the dry grains
will stick to its Shiny skin md make
1t helpless.
All living things are endowed with
the instinct to move and spread over
the earth. Human beings. higher
animals. and birds prefer to move
about In fair weather. To the earth
worm and other lowly creatures like
frogs, salamanders. slugs and land
srails. rainy Gays are the only days
for travelling. When the sun comes
ou and dries the roads and the
meadows they withdraw into their
hiding places. AS earthworms can
not see clearly. they crawl about in
an aimless sort Of way. II they hap
pen to get on board or CEN 1T
walk. when the sky clears away they
soon die and shrivel up.
When dry season or winter ap-
proaches. the earthworm burrows
deeper into the ground. At IA depth
varying from six inches to two feet
each worm coils up in a little ball.
B., the aid of secretive slime it makes
a case Of dirt around itself, and in
this state 1t remains dormant until
abundant rains or the spring thaw
calls it back to more active life.
