Kiding the Horse. It is easier to sit on a cantering horse because the horse uses only his legs, there is but little upward spring, but simply a tilting forwards and backwards between the fore and hind legs, and the rider only feels a swaying movement like that of a rocking-horse. When gal- loping, however, the horse brings also into play the powerful muscles of the trunk and the back thrown upwards when the hind legs are beneath the body. With each stride there is a corsiderahle spring upwards and forwards, and the rider is conscious not only of a rocking movement, but of a sudden upward thrust at each stride calculated to throw ior-

When using the world famed Diamond Dyes for home dyeing, use fresh, clean, soft water; hard and impure water will mar the beauty of the shades. Wooden, earthen or enamelled vesseis are best.

Old articles, before dyeing, should bé well washed with soap and water to re- move dirt or grease, and rinsed in hot water, and dyed while damp. When any particular shade is wanted, the dye should be tested by cyeing asmall piece of the stuff.

THE TWO KINDS OF SNAKES.

“Ronous Wave No Advantage Ove:

Non-Poisonous in Getting Food,

A lecture recently given at the Royal Institute by Dr. Fraser on the medical treatment of the bite of venomous ser-

pents fully confirms the popular estimate of the deadly nature of the weapon carried by thése serpents. The minimum lethal dose varies in proportion to the size, and also to the individuality of the creature bitten, for though more poison is needed to kill a man than to kill a eat, the cat needs more in proportion to its weight. But non-venomous snakes are the only creatures which do not sucewnb almost instantly to the poison,except the venom- ous serpents themselves. The cobra is proof against cobra poison, and the puff- adder against the bite of another puff- adder, apparently because all the food which they eat is the flesh of animals which the snakes themselves have killed with their own poison. The best safe- guard for the human being, is to obtain immunity in the same way, by swallow- ing the poison. The selective power of the stomach retains for use in the system

the protecting element and rejects the rest, and it has been found that kittens suckled by a mother which had been

*‘immunized’’ by swallowing cobra poi- son were also protected. Hypodermic in- jection is mainly ineffectual. because of

the frightful power of the poison, and the microscopic doses which must be used, the amount contained in ofe or

two test-tubes shown by the lecturer be- ing probably more than.enough to have kiiled the entire audience assembled.

The testimeny to the deadly. nature of the serpent’s weapon is so complete that the question naturally occurs why the non-venomous serpents have survived at all in the struggle for the survival of the fittest. The problem is attractive mainly because the conditions of snake struc- ture seem almost intended as an illustra- tion of what we may call dogmatic evolu- tion. Certain snakes, of medium carry the most deadly weapon, whether of offense or defense, owned by any ani- mal. In addition, they have the perfect vertebrate structure which Sir Richard Owen so much admired, and can there- fore swim, climb, and make their way in places where’no animal of similar size can go. They are the best equipped ani- mals of their kind. (side by side. with these are found snakes of similar size and equal powers, except that they lack the invincible lethal weapon. They have de- veloped all the special attributes of their kind except that one which renders them an object of terror to all other creatures. They only carry blank cartridges in the battle of life. Evolution seems arrested for no reason; they not only fail to zrow the poison tooth, but do not develop the power of crushing their prey the constrictors do. It would be far easier for a conmmon grass snake to kill a frog by poison before eating it, as the cobra does, than to have to swallow it alive. It would save it trouble to crush it, a young boa constrictor of the same size would do; but it does neither, because it neither has developed, nor in the least likely to develop, the necessary equip- ment for so doing.

By the theory of evolution the. grass snake ought, therefore, to go back in the world, while the other common English snake, the poisonous viper, armed with a weapon equally powerful as a protection and a means of killing prey, increased in size and numbers, and teok its place. Yet this is exactly what has not hap- pened. Grass snakes are larger and more numerous than adders, and there is no evidence that the absence of the poison fangs in any way endangers the survival of the species. Instances of this disparity

as

as

seems

of equipment, seen in such a marked form in the case of the venomous and non-venomous snakes, are commonly

found among other animals, and though by the analogy of certain examples of evolution the less well-provided ought to disappear, or to develop better physical powers and appliances, they manage to maintain their place without modifica- tions of their structure. There is hardly any large group of birds, beasts, fishes or insects in which instances do not occur of the successful survival of creatures which have never acquired the special- ized powers gained by others, and when creatures of wholly different orders, but living upon identical food, are compared, such as the birds, fishes, monkeys, and reptiles which feed upon insects, the dis- parity of eqnipment is even more strik- ing. It is not difficult to account for the survival of the non-venomous snakes, except on the supposition that the poison is a necessity for obtaining food or for self- defense, which the continued existence of the non-poisonous snake shows that it is not.—London Spectator.
