While playing in good-sized city

street by an eager young man, who
said:
"How do you do, Mr.. Clarke? l
saw your performance last night. I'm

"Oh!" said Mr.. Clarke. "And how
do you like newspaper work?"

have sixth SENSE
ViperS Ee!isvei to Possess Un-
known Faculty.
New York Curator Says Exact Nature
of Reptiles Sixth Sense is In
COMPREHENSIVE &c Man.

The intuitive flash commonly known
as bunch or sixth sense has been
explained more or less satisfactorily
By Freud and other psychologists as
ii applies to man, but no one ever
psychoanalyzed a snake. Hence the
mysterious sixth sense of the lowly
pit viper is still a poser.
In the opinion Of Raymond l.. Dit
mars, curator of reptiles at the Bronx
zoo, the exact nature of the snakes
sixth s1nse is incomprehensible to
man, as he possesses no yestige OF the
unknown faculty himself.
1t is only in that type of snake dis
tinguished by a slight indentation in
front Of the eyes on each side of the
head, and generally known as pit VI
pers, that the puzzling phenomenon is
present. The indentation is the out
ward Indication of series Of two cavi.
ties sunk into the snakes skull. 1t
is simple but delicate organ, well
lined with a sensitive membrane and
connected with what passes for q
brain in the reptile. 1t is evidently
In active operation, and it's condition
shows that 1t is not lingering vestige
Of an outgrown stage of evolution as
are the small bones which prove that
snakes once had legs.
The pit viper, which includes the
rattlesnake, mOccasin, copperhead and
"fer-de-lance," has the same rudimen-
tary inner ears as other serpents, and
must use its forked tongue on the
tuning fork principle to hear. In that
connection 1t is no better than the gar
den variety Of snake. But In most
other ways 1t Is infinitely superior. 1t
can almost think.
Inasmuch as the only type Of SER
pent which does display signs of men-
tai power at all is distinguished by
the pit 1t Is logical to presume that 1t
is the seat of the snakes sixth sense.
Snakes certainly are not intelligent,
says Mr.. Ditmars, and they are in
capable Of reasoning. Yet some of the
acts performed by pit vipers can only
be explained in one of two ways
either they have mysterious added |
sense or they have the capacity for
and SO can profit by expert
snce. Scientists who have studied |
reptiles are convinced that the former
theory Is the more tenable-
Such snakes seem to sense the pres
snce or approach Of an enemy and
sven detect the imminence Of other
forms of danger. Too, they have a
loming instinct more remarkable than
The homfng pigeon, which at least has
he advantage Of bird's-eye view.
No matter how far afield a rattle
make may roam In the course Of
summer it will invariably return with
accuracy to its hibernating
,lace when the air becomes chilly.
There is only one species of pit
iper indigenous to the tropics and
hat displays the same faculty In re-
,ard to its regular home as the hi
'ernating species Of the North. And
ts talents as weather prophet would I
'ut to shame the best efforts of our
earned experts with all their appa- :

THIEF-pROOF SAFE
Makers of Strongboxes ThWart
Modern CrackSmen.
Progress of MetalurgicaI Science Has
Been Most Rapid and the Up-to-
Date Burglar Has Difficult Task.

Those who have valuables deposited
for safe custody with their banker
do not doubt that they are secure in
deed. They do not realize that The
continuance of this security involves
never-ending battle of minds be
tween strong-roOm and safe manufac
turers and scientific cracksmen.
Many modern burglars acquired ex
perience of different explosives dur
ing the war that has aided them enor
mously. Before a new method of Sc
curity has been long in use, some clev-
er criminal will find a way to defeat
it, and it is thereby rendered Obso-
lete.
The time has passed since safe
makers produced anything they con-
sidered absolutely burglar-proof.
Their aim nowadays is to produce
safe or strong room calculated to hold
out against attack for given length
OF time
The longest period that bank safe,
filed with money and clients valu-
ables, can be left without being Wis
tied is that from close Of business at
the end of the week until Monday
morning, or something over forty
hours.
II 1t Is absolutely impossible to
force an entrance into the safe In that
time, plus a good margin for safety,
the makers object will have been at
tanned.
The successor to the key lock Is the
combination keyless lock, which pos
sesses none Of the formers disadvan-
tages. The combination can be
changed rs often as desired, and the
lock set SO that two or more people,
each with his own secret combination,
are necessary to operate it.
Time locks are also frequently
used, though less in this country than
in Great Britain. BY means Of these
safe can be set to keep shut for a
definite period of time, during which
even possession of the combination
will fail to effect an entrance.
The modern safe door has a slab
Of manganese steel, at least two
inches thick, as first line Of de-
Tense. This offers considerable oppo-
sition to liquid explosives and the o1y-
hydrogen blow-pipe, the principal
equipment of the up-to-date burglar.
Behind this are successive layers OF
materials, which are
calculated to blunt the strongest tools
and delay the intruder, If not actually
defeat him.
The progress Of metallurgical SCI
ence has been most rapid, and as each
new method of attack Is revealed 1t
Is promptly counteracted and rem
lered useless.
Those Of the public who put their
trust in locks, bolts, and bars can rest |
assured that everything is done by
to justify their conf
Tit-Bits.
