Fallacies About RauIesnakes.

This is one reason for the con-
Itinued existence of the rattlesnake In
the midst of enemies who would eN-
terminate IL. for, contrary 10 the
general belief, the rattler rarely
gives its characteristic note OF warn
ing until actually attacked. In fact,
the sharp vibrant ring of It's terminal
appendage is probably designed moro
to assist this very sluggish serpent 10

fiance or warning. In the first place,
seprents possess but the most rudi-
mentary traces OF auditory apparatus
and are practically deaf. the de-
ficiency I'm the sense of hearing be-
ing compensated for by an extreme
sensitiveness Of feeling which makes
them aware of the approach OF NOV
ing objects by the vibration OF the
ground.
Hunters, treading cautiously upon
soft carpet of moss or leaves 10
avoid alarming game, will often step
close 10 or over a rattler without
disturbing IL or receiving warning.
and while many snakes are seen ana
killed by them, IL Is probably that a
far greater number are passed by
unnoticed All snakes are timid ami
would rather run than fight, and
the rattler is not inviting certain de-
struction by advertising it's where
abouts in the brush.
Another common misconception
which Is apt TO lead 10 serious acci-
dents Is the belief that a rattleT is
rendered perfectly harmless. so that
IL can be handled with impunity, by
the removal of it's poison fangs.
These fangs, two In number, are sit
uated on the upper jaw and lie nat
except when the serpent strikes,
when they become erect and
