But the egg of the gopher tortoise is remarkable for it's complete roundness. It might we'll be mistaken for golf ball. Many snakes eggs are soft skinned, brown as to color and look for all the world like number of new potatoes s.-Scien- tific American.

The dinner hour had passed some
time without any announcement that
the dinner was served when one OF

inquired OF the hostess the cause OF
the delay. The latter explained tha.
owing to one OF the guests having sent
an excuse at the last moment there
would be thirteen instead OF four
