There are two very finely prepared
skeletons of big snakes in the Nation
al museum in Washington. and in
making them ready for exhibition the
utmost pains were taken 10 preserve
the cartiiaginous extremities of the
ribs. which with ordinary treatment
are lost Without these little pieces
of cartilage the serpent's skeleton can
hardly be said to be complete, mas
much as they are the feet upon which
the reptile walks, as ii were. In fact.
a snake walks on the ends OF its ribs
and in that manner achieves locomo-
ton.
Some big serpents, however, like the
boas and pythons. really nave hind

seems that monopoly of the extern

once came into the hands of man
who kept his agents at the principal
stations and required them to furnish
him all facts that came to their knowl-
edge.
At one of his stations in the far 2ortii

the greater part of the season, and
there was no prospect of improvement.
when he looked into the matter. Upon
examining his agents letters from
that place for some years back he
found by comparison of dates that
at certain place behring's were likely
to be found. He accordingly instructed
his agent to send his boats TO that
spot.
The fishermen laughed at the idea
of a man sitting some hundreds of
miles away and telling them where to
get fish. but as his orders were posi-
tive they had TO obey. and the coHse-
quence was that they returned next
morning loaded with behring's.

ANIMALS IN A STORM.

Wild birds do their best to keep out
of the rain. Some of them build a roof

cliff where they may be safe from the
discomfort that the rain brings.

Gettisx the Musical Pitch.

Musical pitch has curious tendency
to creep up. It is said that Bach's mu-
sic sounds much differently now from
what it did when Bach wrote It. be-
cause the instruments are now pitched
higher In 1882 il was found that the
pitch of high \ at the Vienna Court
Opera had crept from the prescribed
49, double vibrations a second to Alb,
and in 1888 this number had further in,
creased TO 40.
Accordingly musical conference
was held and resolution was take
to re-estabIish the cid pitch Of 43o

nouncement the Reichsanstalt. the i'm

rected many hundreds of tuning forks

pitch and thinning the arms if they
are too high.
All the military orchestras of Ger
many are pitched alike. and the Reichs-
anstadt keeps the tuning forks correct.
This solicitous care of the government
in preserving standards is one reason
why the world now goes TO Germany in
musical matters.-Pearson's.
