There I secured the rare butterfly I was looking for, and, through that success I was able to obtain a position with a Boston museum, to travel all over the world for them, collecting valuable specimens. I have been here for only a few weeks, but I already have a commission. I am soon to start for California, in search of a Cornu batrachian." "A 'Cornu batrachian'!" exclaimed Bob.

Nor is it possible to explain them away, as Cornu, Faye, and others have sought to do, by substituting for the rush of matter in motion, progressive illumination through electric discharges, chemical processes, or even through the mere reheating of gases cooled by expansion.

He looked very grave, and got a piece of brown paper and folded it up. Then he began to beat time on my knees and sang out boldly, Cornu ejus exaltabitur. It was enough to make one laugh, for he was only seven years old, and ugly too. But Mariuccia, who was knitting in the hall-way, called out that it was just what Maestro Ercole had sung the day before at vespers, every syllable.

Oh well, then, let her write in the papers that she did not intend to wound me. But she will not do that, I answered. Write to her to tell you so. I will not allow myself to take that step. But I would like to know the truth, however! Do you know someone who...then Madame Cornu mentioned me. Oh, don't say that I spoke to you of it! Such is the dialogue that Madame Cornu reported to me.

Drawings of the internal casts of a Man's and of a Chimpanzee's skull, of the same absolute length, and placed in corresponding positions.

The Eared Grebe is included in Professor Ansted's list, but only marked as occurring in Guernsey. There is now no specimen in the Museum. SCALAVONIAN GREBE. Podiceps auritus, Linnaeus. French, "Grèbe cornu ou Esclavon." The Sclavonian Grebe is a regular and rather numerous autumn and winter visitor to all the Islands.

Every Lemur which has yet been examined, in fact, has its cerebellum partially visible from above, and its posterior lobe, with the contained posterior cornu and hippocampus minor, more or less rudimentary.

These sorrowful promenades with his melancholy companion would commonly end a tiresome day at Batifol's school. Amedee was now in the "seventh," and knew already that the phrase, "the will of God," could not be turned into Latin by 'bonitas divina', and that the word 'cornu' was not declinable.
