CROCODILES IN WATER.

Practically Invisible Themselves, They See, Hear and Breathe. The crocodiles are thoroughly aquatic in their habits, and their peculiar conformation enables them to attack and seize their prey unawares. Their nostrils, which lead by a long canal to the back part of their throats, their eyes and their ears, are placed on the upper part of the head, so that when in the water they can, breathe, see and hear, while they are themselves practically invisible. When they dive their nostrils and ears are closed by lids or valves, and their eyes are covered by n transparent nictitating membrane. They aro further furnished with an arrangement which prevents the water from getting down their own throats when they are holding large animals under the water to drown them. The dentition of these reptiles is peculiar. The teeth are sharp and conical and are hollow at the base, and each tooth serves as the sheath of another, which will in time replace it. The tongue for notwithstanding the ancient belief the crocodile does possess a tongue is fleshy and is attached to the bottom of the mouth. And finally the lower Jaw is hinged at the very back of the skull, thus giving the animal its extraordinary gape and also the peculiar appearance which caused the notion that it moved its upper jaw.

BY ESTHER GRIFFIN WHITE. Flower stealing is one of the most contemptible forms of thievery. And this is the time o' year when it begins. Householders set out flowers and shrubs. Next morning they go out and find holes in the ground. Maybe they casually glance over a fence on the next block in an aimless stroll for the soft spring air and behold i their erstwhile plants growing lu6tily on the lawn. Honesty Is, after all, negative. Sometimes merely relative. Frequently the point of view. Some persons affect to believe that the earth and the fullness thereof belongs to humanity. So, they help themselves to anything or everything in sight. A plant, they argue, was made by God for the enjoyment of man. Therefore It should not be segregated. One man has as much right to it as another. So he reaches over the fence and pulls it off the stalk or sneaks through the alley gate in the dark of the moon with a trowel and elopes with it roots and all. Anarchists want to do away with law. Socialists want common ownership. Tyrants want absolutism. But the same individual recognizes that none bf these are compatible with human nature. The Bible says that the heart of man is desperately wicked. And you only have to take a few deep sea observations round your own town to know that this is true. For its only the fear of the "iron hand of the law," that protects any man in the poesession of his own property. No sadder spectacle in illustration can be seen than the old Reeves estate. The Reeves estate is not a public domain. It is private property. But the destruction accomplished by the public is appalling to those who knew it before it was made over into a city addition. The mutilation of trees and shrubbery is outrageous. Persons who have not bought lots and therefore have no right to remove or transfer any plant, tree or bit of shrubbery have flocked thither by the dozens and helped themselves to anything they might fancy. The fine magnolias, in instance, have been almost totally destroyed. The trees on this estate were flaunted as one of its chiefest attractions and assets. For the natural beauties were property owners besought to make purchase of lots in this addition. And it was understood that one of the conditions of sale and inclusion within the confines of the city was the preservation of these natural beauties that is beauties of nature. For, in the beginning, they were artificially produced through human arrangement. But, between the irresponsible pub

lic and the short sighted policy of the city officials, this addition to the city seems in a fair way to become as barren and unattractive as many other "improved" sections. For the glory and honor of j?ictnresqueness and the effective mlse en scene of the town it is a thousand pities that the Reeves estate could not have been kept intact either as a residence or a public or semi-public institution. But since it is open to the public the latter certainly should have some respect for the rights of ownership and not commit inexcusable and impudent depredations on what is still private property. Custodians of parks will tell you that the lack of respect for civic ownership is one of the hardest things they have to overcome in the public That it takes many hard blows, a few arrests and some record-breaking fines to convince the public that a civic right is as much to be respected as an individual one. Locally the civic right is respected far more rigidly than the private one. For the parks now enjoy almost entire immunity from depredations of this character. But flower, plant and shrub stealing is still rampant. And It Is not the vagabond element alone that indulges in this refined form of thievery. But representatives from alleged highly moral purlieus. "You can't always sometimes tell." It is no encouragement to the sometimes reluctant householder to carefully set out and tend flowers and shrubs .for the purpose of adding to the ornamental value of his property and that of the town to have his work of weeks or months nullified by the sneak thief over night. Identified offenders of this class should be strenuously "dealt with" by the police and a little conspicuity would soon stop this unpleasant form of neighborhood stealing. One reckless form of disregard is attendant upon fires. People rush to a fire like water to

the sea. "

the alleys, swirl round the corners and drop from the sky. These people irlll climb fences, run through yards, trample flowers and bushes and otherwise conduct themselves like hyenas in order to gratify their prying and excited curiosity. - A beautiful old fashioned yard was almost entirely destroyed a few years ago by the insane procedure of firechasers although a policeman and several residents of the house used time, voice and muscle to fend them off. Boys, girls, men. women scaled fences, climbed window sills, walked on flower-beds, crowded through bushes to get as near as possible to a burning wood-shed. People run to lawlessness. It is harder to hang on to what you get than to have nothing to hold. The possession of great wealth is, from one point of view, undesirable. Every man or woman of any considerable wealth is deviled to death by the hordes of the impecunious. By sharks and promoters and agents and every form of the con man both

polite and impolite. By the lary, the ne'er-do-well, the idle, the desperate, the disappointed, the failure. To separate him from his money is seemingly the amiable intent of the whole world. It is not natural to be honest. This is not a cynicism. It is a truth. And a fact. It is hard to be absolutely honest. And if you are. or approach it. you get no credit for its native poesession or its hard won acquirement. Look about you.. Do you not see on every hand the dishonest flourishing as the green bay tree? Not only the financially dishonest, but the socially dishonest, the morally, the religiously, the professionally, the artistically dishonest. And no dishonesty is more detestable than that which takes what it can get by seemingly fair and open means. Like robbing the Reeves estate of its floral and arboreal possessions.
