as a candidate in the lie german viva voce the german examiner aciner asked him it if he could speak herman erman yes a little he ans answered modest ly oh ob said the examiner 1 I will then wish nish

time that really you would think that it never meant to leave olt off but the fact is that bat it Is not only satisfying its thirst but Is filling up its cistern ns as well one after another the be cells in ID its stomach are filled with the waler and as soon as each Is quite full it Is tightly lightly closed then when the animal be becomes connes thirsty a few hours later all tuat that it if has 1 to do Is to open one of fit the cells and allow the water to d bow ow out next day it opens one or two iwo wore more cells and so BO it goes on day after day until the whole supply Is exhausted
