RArTLEsNAKE POISON AS MEDICINE.

The London Court Journal publishes the fol-
lowing:
1t may not be generally known to our readers
that snake poison is used for medicine purposes
in these days, and that, under the name of
"Crotalus H0rridus," the poison Of the rattle
snake is utilized in homeopathic pharmacy.
Messrs. Thompson and Cappel of Liverpool,
having recently imported q number of rattle
snakes. abstracted the venom from the live an
lmals in the following ingenious mapner: The
reptiles were in separate compartments of a
case, fitted with double lid for extra security.
A long staff fitted with a thick India rubber
moose at one end, which could be leosened or
frightened by the hand ut pleasure, was inserted
through the partially opened lid, and the 0p-
portunity quickly seized of slipping the loop
over the snakes head, the loop beng immedi-
ately drawn tight by means of the cord attach
ed thereto. With similar cOntrivance the
tail was next fastened, and the snake being
thus securely held, was lifted out of the box to
the floor of the room. A pickle bottle contain
ing chloroform was then thrust over the snakes
head and carefully held in its place by keep
ing time with the animals efforts to extrcate
itself. AS the reptile became stupefied the
moose was gradually relaxed. to enable the
lungs to have full play, and when it appeared
pOwerless, the snake was laid in long narrow
box, made for the purpose, with an aperture at
one end, out of which its head projected while
the after operation was performed Its jaws
were then opened and fixed, and the poison
glands were pressed with forceps, then with
the gloved finger and thumb, while small
blown graduated phial was held to receive the
drops as they oozed slowly out through the pois-
on 'fangs Twenty drops was the average guam
tity yielded from each snake. The venom is of
straw color. thick and gummy in consistency
and decidedly acid in its reaction on litmus
paper. 1t is readily soluble in glycerne or
water, but is precipitated by strong alcohol,
the precpitate being re dissolved by the addi-
ton of little water. It's Genealogical proper
ties were fully tried on variety of animals.
Half drop produced death on a linnet within
three minutes after being injected under the
wing The symptoms produced in all cases
were very similar.

message, and sent the following reply:

At last the minister saw him and came up.

So many accidents have occurred in spite OF

some more rapid and surer method of warning

The new method is electricity, and consists OF
loud whistle operated upon by current. and
