! the Missouri Pacific flyer, crashed
through bridge over an arroya, or dry
4 creek, near Eden, on the Denver & Rio

Snakes Wear Glasses.

Snakes may almost be said to have
glass eyes. inasmuch as their eyes
never close. They are without lids,
and each is covered with a transparent
scale, much resembling glass. When
the reptile casts its outer skin. the eye
scales come OFF with the rest of the
transparent envelope out of which the
snake slips. This CLASSY eye scale is
so tough that 1t ef!ectually protects the
true eye from the twigs, sharp grass
and other distractions which the
snake encounters in its travels. yet
1t is transparent enough to allow the
most perfect vision. Thus. II the
snake has not a glass eye, 1t may, at
any rate. be said TO wear eyeglasses.
