When there are fish in the water with them the moth- er clams dis harge the eggs which soon hatch, but if there are no fish they carry the eggs until they decay. The reason of this strange behavior is this: When the eggs are set free in the water they soon hatch and the little ones swim ebout until they find hich to attach them- for a time on the h and then drop off, sink to the bottom and form burrows for themselves. i i i parasitic life is no doubt a reversion to the habit of some ancient ancestor.

"In rising," he said, "to present the views of His Majesty's loyal Opposition, I should say to ene House that there came fo me last summer as well as fo the Primé Minister, representations from many eminent men, asking that the question of Tmperial defence be kept out of contentious politics.
