Records Are Matters of Common KnowI-
edge Among tho Bedouins.
Tho Arabs have no written pedi
grees; it is all an affair of memory
and OF notoriety in the tribe. Certain
alleged pedigrees of Arabian horses.
couched in romantic language and
in a small bag hung with cord
around tn, animals neck, have been
published but according TO the At
luntic Monthly, these are forGeries
gotten up probably by horse dealers,
Egyptian. Syrian or Persian. Tho
breeding OF every horse is Il matter of
common knowledge and it would be
impossible for his owner TO fabricate
pedigree SO rs to deceive tho ma
tives even il he were so inclined,
The Bedouins. it seems necessary to
admit are. in general great liars;
and they will lie Ito a strangely about
the age, the quality or the ownership
OF horse but they will not lie about
his pedigree, even when they can do
so with impunity. To be truthful on
this subject is almost a matter OF re-
liglon, certainly a point OF honor in
the desert.
How far back do these pedigrees
run, and what was the origin OF the
Arabian horse? These questions it is
impossible to answer definitely The
Bedouins themselves believe that
Allah created the eluine genus on
their soil. The root or spring OF
the horse is. they say. lin the land
OF the Arab" This pious belief is
spared by few generous souls in
England and America small but
devoted band. who gallantly defend
the cause Of the Arabian horse agains,
his only rival the modern English
thoroughbred. Chief among these
faithful was the late Ma or X. ID.
Upton. who visited the desert himself.
and who has recorded his experiences
and his views. Major Upton con-
cluded that the horse was found ia
Arabia not later than about loo
years after the deluge if indeed he
did not find his way there Immediately
after the exodus from the ark. which

THE LESNAkE'S TAI



How the Caudai Alarm Clock of the
Creature is Constructed.
The structure from which the rattle.
snake takes his name-the rattle
consists mainly of three or moro solid.
horny rings placed around the end of
the tail. These rings themselves are
merely dense portions of the general
outer skin OF the body, but the rattle
has also u solid foundation of bone.
for the three last bones of the tail
become united together in one solid
hole or core, grooved where the bone
join. while they increase in size to-
ward tho hinder end of the complex
bone thus formed. This bony core is
invested by skin also marked by
grooves which correspond with those
at the junct ons OF the three bones
and this skin becomes much thickened
and SO forms an incipient imperfect
idtle OF such young snakes as have
not yet cast their skin. When it is
cast the skin investing the tail close
to its termination is not cast Off but
is held fast by the enlarged end of the
bony core before mentioned.
The piece o skin thus retained be-
comes II loose ring in front of the
incipient ratio. says the Quarterly
Review. and thus forms a first Joint
or ring OF the future perfect rattle.
The same process is repeated at each
mott fresh loose ring or additional
joint to the perfect rattle being thus
formed every time the skin is shed.
Thus the perfect rattle comes ulti-
mately TO consist of number of dry.
hard, more or less loose, horny rings
and in this way rattle consists of as
many as twenty-one co-eX;sting rattl.
ing rings. 1t is the shaking of these
rings by II rapid wagging of the end
of the snake's tail which produces tho
celebrated rafting sound-a sound
