There is a little reptile belonging in
Madagascar known as the scimitar
snake, that is the curling sword Run
ming along the back from head TO tail
is a blacklist, horny substance, which
bends with the convolutions of the
snakes body as readily as would a well
tempered steel spring, and throughout
its entire length It bears an edge as
hard as flint and sharp a q razor. They
are not poisonous, but when one Of
them springs on a man, which he likes
very well 70 do. he win soon have a leg
off unless cracked on the pate. Some
snake specialists claim that the pres
ence Of this reptile on the island is the
reason there are no large quadrupeds to
be found there at present, the curling
sword in back ages having taken off
legs faster than they could be created
