In many countries snails are q
favorite article Of food. In France
many are eaten, and even culti-
waited for food, or at least en-
couraged to multiply, under the
name of escargots. From this
point Of view It may be said in
their favor that they are vegetable
feeders.
The gasteropods, as I have said,
are D large family. biologists
reckon that they have developed
5000 species, Of which 1000 are
extinct, and $1,000 now f1ouFishing.
In some Of their forms they have
been very useful to man. Some
make excellent bait for fish.
The famous Tyrian purple, the
royal color of antiquity, which no

Gasteropods, marine relatives Of

are members Of the family. Their
shells are often exceedinly delicate,
graceful and beautiful In color.

the Linnaeus, often turns itself

This sole, or endless foot, Of

GARRETT P. SERVISS ON SNAIL
AS TRUE ARTSTOCRAT
Tiny Creatures Family Tree Stretches Back

~ READ the other day state
ment that a snail can safely

The statement may be true, yet
think I should rather be q fly

But, however that may be, there
are few animals that present
more points Of interest than .
snail.
In the first place. he Is, by de-
scent, an arigtocrat, with q family
tree at least fifty million years
long, As some old families In
England boast that they ''came
IN with the Conqueror," meaning
that their ancestors may have
held the stirrups for William Of
Normany when he set out to
invade England, 30 the snail,
with his house on his back and
his meals on the ends Of his
horns, might boast that he came
In with the Gasteropoda, mean

molluslks, who began to spread
over the earth in that measure

optical stalks waving about to
aim their little lenses upon me
without feeling that I have fallen

when / see that strange, endless
sole on which he creeps and re-
fleet that he has inherited 1t from
ancestors who lived in the very
morning of the world, I think
again Of the illimitable tract of
time over which his kind have
travelled.
The Gasteropods are a very
large family, and the snail, as
we know him, represents only a
relatively recent branch Of 1t.
But he retains the main char

ancestors. The family, more.

even then they had all the family

FRENCH EXPLAIN USE
OF MORGAN ADVANCE
Official Statement Issued in Reply
to Alleged Criticism
by Herriot.
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
PARIS, June 2.-The French gov
eminent today issued lengthy state
ment giving the fullest details as yet
published of the $100.00o,o0o advance
made by J. P. Morgan & Co. to the
French government in connection
with efforts to stabilize the franc.
The official statement was made on
the occasion of publication Of re-
marks attributed to Edouard Herriot
potential premier, in which the leader
of the radical Socialist party declared
that France had been treated like
Turkey, and that Minister OF Finance
Francois -Marsal had adopted an inex-
cusable attitude in the face Of the de-
mand Of the American bankers for
guarantees in addition to gold tc
cover the advance.
The statement. which Is nearly 1,00l
words long, recalls the break in the
value Of the franc March IL, when the
French government obtained tn,
power to draw on ]. p. Morgan G. Co
for s10o.000,ooo, ito be repaid in six

+ P. Morgan & Co.. the statemen'
continues, demanded assurances tina,
governmental measures would def
nitely be taken to convince the world
that the Improvement of the franc
would be consolidated by the coun-
try's financial policy.
Included in the official pronounce
ment is the telegram sent to the Nor
gan company giving the assurance
which had been asked. Continuing
the statement quotes NJ. Herriot
speaking in the chamber of deputies
March 81, as having declared that the
