MODERN SCIENCE. 



EMJOYED it ? Ra-ther, to the fullest 

 immensity ; 

 Waves of dread wonder surged 

 over my soul. 

 I seemed to feel joy's overwhelming in- 

 tensity, 

 As I heard of that thingum surround- 

 ing the Pole. 

 The What - did - he - call - ems? — those 

 things astronomical, 

 That gigantic lizard, the — YVhat-was- 

 his name? — 

 With the— you know, tnat mummy, who 

 squinted so comical. 

 'Twas perfectly splendid ; I'm SO glad 

 I came. 

 I'm so fond of science, and dote on 

 geology, 

 I've bought a new book, "Dr. Smith 

 on Concology," 

 Telling of wonderful thing-amy-jigs. 

 I'd like to be wise and discover a dactyl, 

 Or go out and hunt for those fishes 

 with wings. 

 I'd search and I wouldn't give up or 

 come back till 

 I'd found a big fragment of — what- 

 are-those-things?

Those things that the fellow called 

 Palaeozoic, 

 How ugly they are ! — how enormous 

 they grow ! 

 The man who could capture one must 

 be heroic, 

 Because 'twould be awfully dang-rous, 

 you know. 

 These lectures arouse transcendental 

 emotions, 

 And make one feel wonderfully 

 learned and sage ; 

 DO call in to-morrow, we'll clear up 

 our notions, 

 Of how the world looked in the what's- 

 er-name age.

Life Histories of Insects. 



The New Jersey Entomological 

 Company, 74 Thirteenth Avenue, New- 

 ark, New Jersey, has prepared inter- 

 esting cases to show in the most nat- 

 ural way the life histories of certain 

 insects. Each stage of insect develop- 

 ment is labelled so as to make it easy 

 for the teacher to explain to the pupil 

 for the pupil to comprehend. This is 

 good nature study material. Placing it 

 in such convenient form in the hands 

 of teachers merits commendation.
