SNAlx.-t is a we'll known fact that the
path marked lin the dust let us say by a
snake in It's progression forward, consists:of
series ofreyersed curves. From careful
study of these paths, (somc hours after their
maklng) we have learned the following Gu
rlous facts.
First: the more devious the path, the more
rapid the motion: q knowledge OF this the
serpent has. we conclude, impaired to some
men for their benefit in an emergency.
Second: Il straight line being the shortest
distance between two points, the serpent has
a natural aversion to going straight to the
point: we take this to indicate that the in
fluencc excrted by the Original Snake upon
father Adam has been to some extent trans.
mit,ed to posterity.
Third ii is not recorded that second
snake has eyer been known to travel sue
cessfully over the identical path of another,
proceeding note striking coincidence be-
this vertebrate and another species, bred
back to the Father of Lies.
Fourth these curves arc so irregular that
table of slnes and cosincs, or equations
applicable to an abscissa and ordinate have
never yet been discovered: this we under
stand teaches us, why we can never exactly
or finally determine from paths made, what
paths yet to be made will! be, when we are
endeayoring to get at the bottom facts Of
snakes and other wrigglers.
Fifth: that these curved paths of snakes
proyc the eternal fitness of things.
