      The Changes Taking Place in Two Pollywogs.

Two large pollywogs have been placed in Schumacher & Miller's aquarium with the gold fishes.
The smaller of the two pollywogs has had two hind legs tor several days. The larger wog, which is four or five inches long, had no legs Saturday but Monday morning he was found to have developed two hind legs.
He doesn't use them much yet, his locomotion being by means of his long tail. The smaller wog is more quiet and seems to have a swelling on one side of his jaw. This is thought to be his front legs which have not yet been seen. The metamorphosis of the pollywogs into frogs will be watched with interest and the aquarium affords a perfect view of the "wogs" at all times.
