with Darwin in his discovery that the
rise Of intellectual faculty and the
dawn of social instinct were the fore
runners of a moral sense. with Its

This study Of the far east fronts upon

examination of the trend OF affairs in

most vital Of the problems that are

at which this study begins is with the
close Of the Russo-Japansse war. Be-
fore that event kind OF stability Of
policy and condition had been effected

this work, however, is to point to the
designs of Japan upon America, rather
than to dwell upon her eastern poll
cies. Mr.. Willard makes 1t plain that
Japan has such designs, emphasizing
the fact that Japan's suave front to the
United States Is wholly false and that
behind this plans inimical to this coun-
try are forming. A journalist, Mr.. Mil
lard makes use of a practical rather
than an academic point of view. A
resident in the east. he knows the orien-
tai habit of thought-that is. he knows
it as well as it is permitted to an occi-
dental to know it. With this double
equipment Mr.. Willard gives a direct,
Eliminating study of the east, and in a
most particular and pointed way of
the Japanese, both in the east and the
west.

The mammals that lay eggs are
unique in nature and are now being
exterminated very rapidly. The duck
bill and the porcupine ant-eater, called
familiarly the porcupine. are the only
two forms of this class extant. The
duck-bill is an Australian form which
lives on the banks of rivers and feeds
upon the insects, worms and mollusks
dense. its coat resembles that of an
otter, while it's tail is fiattened and
short like a beavers. 1t has small
eyes and its most striking feature is a
bill, which is broad and fat like a
ducks.
For long time it was thought that
it's young were brought forth at an
early stage of their development and
the bank Of a river. Colonists started
the stories about its laying eggs and
biologists investigated. For a long
time they denied the reports; then later
it was announced that the duck-bill
was a truly oviparous animal and laid
from two to four eggs in rude nest
in a burrow of river bank.
These eggs are about half-inch
across and three-quarters of an inch
long, the shells being white. tough and
flexible. something after the order OF
a sea turtles egg. Transportation Of
these animals to geological gardens has
successful. Some of the early accounts
Of the duck-bill are very amusing; Tor
at first the specimens brought to Eu-
rope were declared to be manufactured
monsters and fakes"

that lays eggs is the porcupine ant.
