It consists of a figure, a horse, for in
stance, balanced with counterweight

edge of table or mantel, where it
may rock to and fro with a life-like
motion. A string between the depend
ing weight and some movable portion
of the figure causes the portion te
move also. In the case of a man or
horseback the string is attached to the
tail OF the horse and when the figure
moves up and down. Stimulating gal
lop, the animal switches his tail in al
exceedingly realistic manner.
