the lobster is akin to the butterfly.
The kinship is not merely that of two

pointed out In the case OF other crea-
lures many years ago, that the lobster
and its friends. the crab. the prawn
and the shrimp, chose one method of
life, while the butterfly and its set
chose another. So the first group de-
velOped characteristics suited to the
conditions in which ii lived, including
as one of the most important. as its
members do not move rapidly, a coat

In rounding curve the tendency of
the weight of a train is invariably 70
shift to the outside wheels. To coua-
teract this tendency the outer rail Of a
curve is raised on a higher level than
the inside, the elevation being in an
exact proportion to the sharpness OF
the curve as determined by the princi-

curved track were of exactly the same
elevation train would not dare round
