Naturalists and the world at large

that the domestic dog is. IN some
sense a collateral descendant Of the
wolf or jackal says Harper's Weekly
A professor in the Natural History
museum OF Paris has communicated
results OF his study of various canine
skulls to the Academy of Sciences.
He appears to have noticed certain
peculiarities OF growth which have
hitherto escaped biologists.
He states that the skull of almost
every species Of wolf and jacket differs
from the skull of the shepherd dog TO
an extent that makes it impossible
that this dog should belong in the
same classification. The skull of the
Indian wolf, on the contrary, shows
some points OF resemblance. This. in
deed is the only savage canine the
top OF whose head projects like that
Of our dog
There are. moreover, other charac-
tpristics which the Indian wolf has in
common with the dog, and which the
ordinary wolf does not share with
them, although his origin and that of
the dog have long been supposed TO be
q common one
The conclusion OF this scientist is
that the Indian wolf is the progenitor
of the shepherd dog and the blood
hound. There were two primitive
