Ant Eater,s Convenience.

South America can boast no more
remarkable geological product than the
"great ant eater" This interesting
mammal has powerful front claws for
tearing open anthills and decayed logs,
a tongue that is foot in length. and
a long, bushy tail which, according to
native observers, is used ito sweep up
the ants" In reality the tail is not
employed for any such purpose. II
serves for something quite different, as
one may see when the animal lies
down. Then the hairs Of the tail fall
both ways over its body in such man
ner as to form sort of roof thatch,
rain and keeping the owner
dry in stormy weather.
