The Winged Lion of st. Mark.

The famous winged lion on the column
in the place of st. Mark in Venice-an-
scribed by Mr.. Ruskin as '.one of the
yrandest things produced by medieval
art, which all men admire and none can
draw"-has been thoroughly examined
and repaired under the direction of the
Cayaliere Boni, "a distinguished Italian
architect, who has published a report on
the subject. Originally the lion was
gilt, and traces We're found of gliding on
the upper paw. The eyeballs are of Il
vitreous material. white and pellucid.
with triangular facets, but these do no
appear to be the original eyes, which are
supposed to have been of carneliaE
chrysoprase or other opalesque quartz.
The animal is constructed Of small
pieces of bronze about one-third of an
inch thick, secured by screws to an iron
framework. The framework and screws
having oxidized. it became necessary t.
remove the lion from the column and to
replace the iron framework by Il frame
of bronze. Signer B8Hi. for the reason
that he gives. believes thar the lion, Is

Ing tire fatal bite the rattlesnake always
give his note IF warning, and the same
may he said Of the cobra di capello. the
most deadly of the many poisonous rep
tiles of India. The cobra warning is un-
mistakabio-he dllates the crest upon his
neck and gives a hiss loud enough to be
heard distinctly 30 feet away The co.
bras crest is a flexible membrane orhooi
with two black circulars joined togethe.

some smell.
According to the best authorities. the
cobra never bites while the hood is
closed, and so long as that particular
membrane Is not erected the creature
may be approached and handled with
IMMUNITY. Even though the crest liz
spread. if the creature continues in IL
