An extraordinarj- resemblance hag recently been discovered at the London Natural History Museum between a specimen of the huge African elenhant and the pygmy shrew mouse. Sir E. Rav Lankester suggested comparison of the two, and the result has been that practically every bone, muscle, biooci vessel and nerve of the giant beast has been found identically reproduced in the little animal, which is scarcely two inches in length. In the museum a stuffed mouse has been placed be tween the fore feet of its enormous: mounted prototype for the purpose of showing the curious likeness. 7 The Kiad You Have Always Bonlit, aud Trhlch liag hcn in use for over 30 years, I:a3 homo tle &;--;muro ci" and lias !'
