SONGLOVING LIZARDS

The Tuntnrnn of Xeiv Zenlnml Are Saidto lie rnrtlcnlnrl Fond of Rol-

licking Choruses

A curious fact has lately beenlearned about the tuatara the largenative lizard of Now Zealand-

It is a great fat sleepy thing froma foot upward In length with a meas-urement around of about 12 Inches Itis kept tamed about rocks Wildspecimens are growing rare thoughone island oft the coast yet swarmswith them

These harmless things come out asa rule only for food But some one inChristchurch at Auckland has dis-covered a way pf bringing them outat any time This Is by singing to

themTheyhave their preferences in mu ¬

sic too They evince much more sat¬

isfaction at a rollicking chorus thanat a solo

Ono day a song sung by a girlbrought some out but only their headswore visible their sleepy eyes openiliuj every few minutes ThenQueen1aqdthere was no doubt about the effecton tho tuataras

They wriggled about on the rocksalmost dancing in their excitement andjoy until the repertoire of the singerswas exhausted when the lizardssneaked back again to their homeamong the rocks

Now Zealand is the only place inthe world where these great lizardsare found and they are said by blologists to be out of their place in thisstage of the worlds history Theybelong to tho coal period and likethe moat ought by natural laws tohave become extinct long agoi
