ieal Closing Of Nostrils Of
Seal and Camel.

Most of us when we so In for diving
have the very unpleasant experience
Of getting our nostrils full of water
Nature did not design man to be
diving animal, otherwise she would
have been as clever with his nose as
she has been with seals, London Tit
Bits says.
The seal is, without doubt, the clev-
crest diver In the animal world. and
his nose Is very ingenious contriv-
ance indeed. Each nostril is provided
with muscles which close 1t hermetical-
ly at the owners will. And the shape
of the nose is such that when the nos
trils are closed not drop of water
can enter.
With seals the closing of the nostrils
at the moment Of diving has become
an automatic process.
This is wonderful enough. but we
can ee still more remarkable appli-
cation Of the same principle in an ami
NAL as far removed from the seal as
chalk Is from cheese.
The seal is water animal. The
other owner Of trapdoor nostrils' is the
