A CREEPY SENSATION

A CREEPY SENSATION
in my hair, and strange feelings
of fascination, faintness, and fear
stole over me, as [ stood rooted
to the floor, afraid even to look
round at my possible window-es-
cape, The two huge monsters
crawled stealthily up the sofa and
kept stretching out their necks to
gaze at me, their forked tongues
jerking in and out, and their eyes
staring with what seemed to me a
devilish inquisitiveness
The silence was only disturbed
by the beating of my poor heart,
and [ knew not ho7 long it was
before the door opened and my
host roappeared with a pretty
lady, who after a smiling curtesy
to me, lifted the snakes from the
sofa, or rather, leaning toward
them, allowed them to entwine
themselves quickly round her
comely figure, Although still
frightened, | began to give signs
of relief, and could not help being
impressed by the picturesqueness
of the scene, The lady's black
velvet bodice showed off to great
advantage the large snake coils,
with their curious markings, and
her rich brown hair was soon
charmingly ruflled by the caresses
I of the snakes as they poked their
noses through it. In few min
utes two little girls appeared, and,
tripping up to their mother, began
playing with the snakes, calling
the boa cleopatra DEAR" and
actually kissing its nose until the
snake tried impatiently to with
draw it's neck from their fond lit
tie hands.
Mrs. NJ, who seemed over
weighted with the two snakes,
asked her husband to relieve her
of the python, and she then pro-
posed that we should have some
coffee, which Wa brought IN by
the little girls. BY this time l
had regained my self-possession,
and watched her with the keenest
interest of an artist as she poured
out the coffee and tapped occas-
ionally
THE HEAD OF THE BOA,
which was inquisitively stretched
out toward me- During this time
the smaller snakes were all about
the room, a green one half hidden
in the blotting book, and others
hanging from the tables and
chairs, and from Mr.. Ms pockets
Several months after this adj
venture, 1 happened to be at "
rather smart wedding, and meet
ing Lord Arthur Russell who |
knew was a lover of snakes) |

and was rather taken aback by his
proposal that we should 90 away

AS the population of this county is
only 10000 H. will be seen that nearly
nine-lenths of the people Of this county,
in the aggregate, inside Of five months
time, have been afflicted with some
disease, and so badly afflicted, too, that
they have been compelled to use intOX-
icating liquors. Ne can boast no long
e. Of the heallhful climate OF nor Invest
Kansas. Why, according to that,
every man, woman and child in this
county, in the aggregate, in one years
time, will have been 50 sick, that
they must have from half pint
of whI-key to gallon of alcohol or
a case Of beer, at one dose according to
the nature and tenor of the disease.
Really, it is worse than a choIe a cpl
demic, and the strictest sanitary meas
ures should be enforced. If this state
of affairs continues much longer, our
people will be compelled to hunt more
healthy climate.

MS gives an average increase OF
about 225 statements per month. Fig-
uring upon this basis, without counting
any increase OF drug stores, within one
year from the passage of the new law
there will be 34,944 statements fled.
We submit that this is not an encourag-
ing prospect, and believe that every
gOud citizen will agree with as that
something ought to be done t. suppress,
at least in a measure, this reckless
traffic
o. course it is perfectly right under
the law to sell liquor for its excepted
and legitimate purposes. but with the
population of our county, IL Is evident
10 every thinking man that the sales of
liquor ale far in excess of what the law
contemo plates or warrants. and that gross
frauds are being perpeJrated bv some
body, and that the law is being daily
violated.

THE RECORDS SHOW
that there are twelve permits to sell

one of the drug stores. They are as fol-

drug stores haye been started IN the
county since the last law was passed.
At this rate the increase of drug stores
would be one dozen per year and un-
restricted, the drug business would
soon become very popular in the county,
We have taken pa rs TO examine the
records in the office of the Probate
judge. and find that there is an
alarming increase in the number
OF statements filed each month.
In studying the following figures
the time Of taking out the permits
mus be taken into Consideration. 1t IS
not entirely safe, either, to judge of the
amount If liquor sold by the number OF
statements filed, for some druggists are
aggregating much more liquor to the
statement than others. V e have in
mind now certain dru0gi-t who has
been selling a dozen bottles of beer, and
rs high as a gallon of alcohol to one
statements, and that for medical pur-
poses, while there are other druggists
who sell almost entirely a very small
quantity TO the star cement. We have in
formation also that certain druggists
sell considerable liquOr without any
statements al all, and that in one case,
at least, statements have been DESTROYED
before filing with the Probate Judge.
So due allowances should be made in
considering the following figures.
