The Savages Initiate the Melody of the

The melody OF rain dancing on the

heath. is a species of sound that the
art OF music has yet to initiate, if it
would complete its list of instruments.
The MeGicans had some rattles made
Of very peculiar clay with pipes IN
side, which were minded to represent
this sound, says Good Words.
Certain tribes Of the North Ameri-
can Indians have been milarly fasci-
mated by the loud pIash Of water. to

structed accordingly with view to
reproduce this sound Large buffalo
hides are filed with water and sewn

them consisting of a complicated

that had poured it; 50 that by repe-
