is often a:question such assany man
might be expected to answer offhand:
It would be a very intelligent jury

could not remember where HI

probably not. a juryman on the lists
who could not tell,a story of his OWL

What is the use Of snakes? In.
their s:going on their belly the cir
cnmstance that so often offended Ba-
con, lies n Of their greatest uses,
because that, together with their in in
ternal formation and external cover
ing, enables them to penetrate where
no larger c%arnivorous animal could.
venture, into dark and nolsome mo
raises, bog junglcs, swamps amid the
tangled vegetation Of the tropics:
where swarms Of the lesser reptiles,
on which 50 many Of them feed.
would outbalance the harmony of na-
ture.
Wondrously and exquisitely con.
structed for their habitat, they are
able to exist where the higher ami
mails could not and while they help
to clear those inaccessible places Of
the lesser vermin, they themselves
supply food for a number Of the
smaller mammalia, which, with
many carnivorous birds, devour vast
numbers Of young snakes.
The hedgehog, weasel, %ichneumon,
rat, peccary, badger, goat, hog, and
an immense number of birds keep
snakes within due limits, while the
latter perform their part among the
grain devouring and herbivorous les
ser ~creatures.-Harper's Weekly.
