THE BLADDERWORT. 



The Eladdefworts are small aquatic plants that float in ponds and ditches. The large leaves consist of many branching fine 

 threads v/hich bear little pear-shaped vessels with spring doors which allow minute water animals to pass in but prevent their 

 exit. The dead bodies of these little victims are used for the support of the plant.
