"Thirteen. Eleven are dead. The other two will never escape alive. They are fed up with the poison-gas."

"Thank you." Meyer-Maier hung up the receiver. "Very well," he murmured, "now there can be no question of any danger, for each fly can only lay three or four eggs at once,—not a million."

An immense weariness overcame him. He went into his bed-room and fell exhausted on his bed. "It is well that there is a supreme wisdom which controls the laws of nature. Otherwise the world would be subject to the strangest surprises." He thought of the monsters and crept anxiously under the bed-clothes. "I'll entrust Schmidt-Schmitt with the investigation of the creature phenomenon, I simply can't stand further excitement."

And sleep spread the mantel of well-deserved quiet over him.

"Ah!" cried the Professor, with a loud and ringing laugh, "it was a trick of that inexplicable electricity."

From that hour my uncle, was the happiest of learned men, and I the happiest of ordinary mortals. For my pretty Virland girl, abdicating her position as ward, took her place in the house in Königstrasse in the' double vicinity of niece and wife. We need scarcely mention that her uncle was the illustrious Professor Hardwigg, corresponding member of all the scientific, geographical, mineralogical and pediological societies of the five quarters of the globe.

 visible eyes. A pair of spectacles, however, concealed this defect.

Phessenden Keene fell in love with Aura at first sight, and poor Pep was madly jealous, for in the whole-souled breezy westerner she had at last found a man who had won her heart. But she was a good girl and managed to conceal her feelings. She was very good indeed to her rival who evidently returned Keene's affections.

Keene spent hours teaching Aura how to speak, and also training her in the elements of civilization, for she knew less than a child.

Unfortunately, the climate of Now York did not agree with her. She who in the tropics could stand a, dry {{reconstruct|heat}} of 120° F., suffered under a damp {{reconstruct|heat}} of 90° F and three months after {{reconstruct|her}} arrival in the United States, she {{reconstruct|became}} ill, and in spite of Doctor Hackensaw's strenuous efforts to save her, died.

Keene was inconsolable for a long time, but some years later he married Pep, and the pair were very happy together. Migg's heart almost broke {{reconstruct|at}} the time, for he was devoted to Pep, but he finally consoled himself with a peroxide blonde.

As for Doctor Hackensaw, he is still alive and still continues making his wonderful inventions.
