derstand why such cases are so rare— 

 a mere score on record amongst very 

 many thousand normal worms that 

 have been studied — and gain some ink-

One Hundred Thousand Tramps.

What do you do when you quit your 

 work for the day? Do you go home 



ravines, and over the mountain-tops. 

 It reads like a romance. It takes deter- 

 mination and muscle to do it. Dr. Bige- 

 low possesses both. You say that if 

 you were really young again you would 

 not mind it? Dr. Bigelow had a fifty- 

 seventh birthday a short time ago. He 

 is in his prime, and naturally expects 

 these walks to keep him young. This 

 is why his lectures, his writings on na- 

 ture, etc., are so refreshing, like the 

 fragrance from the cut flowers.

and go to bed, or do you go out in the 

 great outdoors and see what nature has 

 locked up in the secret chest? Here's 

 one man who never misses the oppor- 

 tunity to go on tramps after his day's 

 work is over, or the tramp may be for 

 a full day if he has a day to devote to 

 walking. 



Dr. Edward F. Bigelow has taken an- 

 nually on an average more than 4,500 

 boys and girls on natural-history ex- 

 cursions, through fields, through 

 marshes, through woodlands, through 



if you would be strong mentally, mor- 

 ally, and physically. 



At Scarborough, in Yorkshire, Eng- 

 land, the sea is rapidly cutting back in- 

 to the land ; with the result that there 

 has just been laid bare there what 

 seems to be the stock in trade of a 

 prehistoric dealer in bronze weapons, 

 of date about 1000 B. C. Twenty ob- 

 jects have turned up, some fresh from 

 the casting and unpolished ; others 

 finished and ready for the market.
