TnE SNAKES CnARM.
Has IL Really the Power to Fascinate Its Vic
Tins,

Has IL Really the Power TO Faseinate Its Vie
Tins.
Concerning the power of a snake TO
charm birds and fowls, and even human
beings, there has always been doubt and
discussion The Popular Science Month.
ly recently printed some curious aneo.
dotes on this subject Here is one of
them: A gentleman from Iowa says that
one day while going through his poultry
yard no noticed turkey hon with neck
stretched TO tho utmost, eyes distehded
and wings eighty raised gazing most in
tently upon the ground three or four feet
from where it stood. Watching il for
some moments he found that the turkey
moved slowly around the attracting OBJ
ect ia Il circle, without withdrawing its
gaze for moment. After 10 had made a
full circle he approached 90 learn the
cause OF its extraordinary behavior and
found that the attracting object was
email striped snake partially concealed by
some small weeds; aud nos until be touch
ca 10 did the turkey notice his prese nee,
though ordinarily il would not permit
him to approach within two or three
yards. Even when driven away the tur-
key persisted in returning and working
around in a circle.
Other fowls we're then driven in the
direction OF the snake, and Oh catching
glimpse of It we're strangely affected.
Final >, satisfied that the condition of the
fowls on seeing the reptile was purely an
objective one the writer took stick
and approached the snake TO kill it. 10
was dead already snd--most noteworthy
point OF all-its head was crushed out Of
all semblance of its original shape and
covered with dirt.
The conclusion the writer reached was
that small animals passed into a subjec-
tive OF hypnotic condition on being sud
denly brought in view Of serpents,
of which all animals, great and
small, appear TO stand in dread. Accept
ing this, he says, we have the fascination
OF birds and small beasts by a scientific
fact.
