An earthworm avoids the light of day and digs its burrow and seeks its food by wonderfully coördinated activities of its muscles and other parts, which are controlled by a double chain of ganglia along its ventral side, connected with a similar pair of grouped nerve-cells above the anterior part of the digestive tract.

"I pray to God that you're wrong, sir," answered the carpenter; "but, now that you comes to speak of it, the same thing have struck me too.
