An Animal win Seven Names.


A notable curiosity Of animal lie 70
be found In Queensland il the duck
mole. or ornithorhynchus. called also
duckbill platypus. mallangong. muilin'
gong. tambreed and water mole. lts
multiplicity of names Is no doubt que
to the fact that 1t presented such d.
versity of features that 1t was difflcult
to classify It In the first place, 1t Is
an aquatic mammal-that Is. 1t suckles
its young like the whale and the du'
gong. It has the fur Of the beaver, the
bill of duck and webbed feet, but the
most remarkable thing about 1t Is that
Il laws eggs like bird or reptile. For
a long time 1t was not definitely ascer'
tanned whether 1t was oviparous or
yiyiparous, and interminable argu'
ments arose on this point between the
bush naturalists of Australia. 1t was q
most difficult point upon which to Cd
tain accurate information on account
of the shy habits Of the animal, but
close research In the rivers. creeks and
Iagoons OF north Queensland has es
tablished the fact that this curious AMI
NAL is oviparous. 1t belongs to the SUD-
class mOnotremata.

wholly so, since there are yet potatoes
10 the ground, aud apples hanging on
the trees, and . big harvest it has been.
