EGGS THAT CROAK.
Young Crocodile Are Heard
Before
They Are Hatched. '
... That young unbatcbed crocodiles nt
ter au audible croaking cry within the
eggs in which they are laid Is averred
by Knowledge, end It adds the cry Is
so, loud and distinct that It can be
beard when tbe eggs are buried under
' one or two yards of sand. ... ". ' ; .
Dr. W. A. Uiinboro tested tbe fact
at Lagos on tha West African coast
He heard a croaking noise from below
a dry path. and. dlCKlng In tbe path

about eighteen Inches. All the young

Apples With Worm.
May lt not be that we get a keener
pleasure out of eating an Imperfect ap
ple than a perfect one? It Is neither
the best possible apple, which would
be perfect, nor tbe worst possible ap
pie. which would have a kind of nega
tive perfection; it has a worm at tbe
core. But I wonder whether we do
not enjoy It more because we have to
eat tbe more carefully to keep trout
eating him. Besides, he arouses In
our mind all : sorts of : questionings.
Why Is he there). What kind of worm
la be? How did he get In? How would
he have got out If we had not ousted
him? And note this what sort of
apple would It have been if.be bad
taken up his residence elsewhere?
The 'perfect apple could have roused
nn queries which the defective apple
dotw uot Tbe same subtle Influences
went to made both tbe same elements,
the saute forces, the same chemical
processes. But the defective apple has
lu addition to all these the worm.

The Bell Bird.
Tbe most remarkable thing In con

vil. Sometimes it repents its notes In
quick succession, sometimes at fairly
long Intervals. There is no mistake
ubout the voice of this bird; It Is loud
and plerciiiK and would be heard
above the Uiu produced by every In
mate of the zoo raising Its voice nt
once. Except for a space of naked
skin on tbe throat and around the
eyes, which during the breeding sea
son Is of green color, this bird Is pure
white. The contrast between tbe sex

while tbe malo is pure white, tbe fe
male is brownlKb green. Darwin re
