Useful Earthworm.

As Darwin long ago showed, the
earthworm is the farmers friend. Its
burrows drain and aerate the soil.
while the earth which has passed
through its body is finely divided and
lie constantly being brought to the sur
face from lower levels. Their bodies
are adapted to this burrowing habit.
The pointed head-end is devoid of feel
ers and eyes, and the foot stumps are
only represented by rows of bristles,
which can be felt if the finger be
passed along the body from back to
front. There are no jaws. but the mus
cular part of the digestive tube acts
as a kind of pump for taking in food
This includes plants and animals. 1t
has small gizzard, which contains
many stones. and these are used in
stead of teeth to grind the food.

troops being rushed the aid of the serbans
they expected to give much assistance in turning
back the invaders
There can be no denying the fact that the Germans
have suffered severely by the latest move on the part
ofthe Allies. The German loss in has reached the
10000 mark. while many guns and much ammunition
has also been seized This is indeed. heavy loss and
