CLEARS UP MYSTERY ' t OF LOB8TER'S LIFE ( Something of the mystery hit*; ( erto surrounding the development- ] I of the lobster has been cleared up i Professor Bouvier. The inves- t 1 tigation was carried out at the mar- t "itime laboratory at Plymouth, I England, where lobsters are abun- 1 ' dant among the rocks and the con- J ditiona for studying them are fav'orable. The newly-hatched lob- i store are different from those, com- 1 | monly known. In the larval state j jrfliey are very minute, quite trans- 1 'parent, and their body, Jiat and leaf-like, has three pairs of swim- i mere. i I Between this and the adult con- < ditto® as many as nine different 1 | stages of transformation have been j I observed. Rare specimens of so- | I called "puerulus" have been bus-' pected of being lobsters in a youth- j • ful stage — about an inch long, i 'transparent and soft-shelled — and i this view has been confirmed by : 'finding the next 6tage in actual progress. The puerulus stage is : that in which swimming is given up for quiet lodging in the rocks, i | Growth and change are rapid, and the ^volution from the egg to the , fnllvdeveloDgd^bster seems to bf completed'" in -two months. — New . : York Press. \ :l / WANTED— 60 MEN AND WOMEN. , -1- .
