A Snake Swallows a String of Fish.

Hugh Pattison, of the water rates
Office, had a funny experience while
fishing at Long Lake, says the st. Louis
Globe Democrat. He had been catching
fish pretty liTely all the morning, and
along toward noon he went on land and
left his string of fish in the water by the
boat He fingered under the shade of
the trees for couple of hours, and then
returned to take up his rod for the pur-
pose of enlarging the string of croppies
that he caught in the morning. after
fishing short time he took nice bass
and reached over the side of his boat for
his string Of fish, to place the bass with
the Others. 1t was gone. Not sign of
his twenty five croppies could be found.
You may imagine my disgust at the
discovery" said Mr.. Pattison, relating
the story. ~ had almost made up my
mind to pull up stakes and go home,
when | noticed a monster blacksnake
lying in the sun by little bush about
twenty feet away. l had little rifle
with me and | took careful aim at the
snakes head aud let go. The bullet did
its work well, for the snake, after writh-
ing little, became quiet, and l went
ashore TO look at him. l took pole
with a hook on the end that | use for
loosening my line when it is caught on a
snag and pulled the big snake up on the
bank. never saw such a big one before
and its belly was pulled out till it looked
like stovepipc. noticed a piece of
string sticking out of the snakes mouth
and my curiosity was aroused, so l took
out my knife and cut him open. Well,
you may not believe it, but there was my
elegant string of croppies in the snakes
sto mach, and some of them were alive
and kicking when l took them out
Threw them away3 of course l didn't.
Just washed them off and went on fish
ing, and when | got home l gave the
string of fish to friend, who declared
that he never ate better croppie in his life.

Fantastic Brahmin Idols.

One sees Brahma occasionally in the
East pictured in heroic size on the walls
of houses, or as an idol OF wood or
stone, occupying u shed at one end of
village with his wife Sarasvati. He is
also, of course, to be seen in temples, but
not often.
Sarasvati is always represented as a
beautiful young woman presenting a
flower to her husband, says a CORE
spondent Of the C0urier-Jomndi. Like
our own Mother Eve, she was created out
of portion of her husbands body, al
though the Hindoos do not distinctly say
q rib.
When this happened Brahma was pos
sessed of but one head. Beholding this
lovely newly created companion, how
ever, he at once became smitten with her
charms. Sarasvati, being a shame. faced
maiden, modestly turned away to escape
his gaze.
At Brahma's wish to still behold her,
a second head issued from his body. AS
the damse skipped around to another
position third head appeared and then a
fourth.
At length, in her embarrassment,
Sarasvati sprang into the sky. Not to
be outdone, however, Brahma instantly
produced fifth head. This fifth head
was subsee euently struck oil by another
god in a dispute, which leaves him only
four.
The idol with the leopard skin loin-
cloth, the snake about his head and
neck and the tridentiu in his hand, is silva,
the destroyer. He is one of the most
familiar idols one sees in India. AS you
approach an Indian village the first
building by the roadside is apt to be
a shed-like shrine, sheltering an idol of
silva about the size of a man.
He is painted red, with blue neck,
and sometimes garnished profusely with
bits of gold or silver tinsel pasted here
aud there about his figure. This bright
paint and tinsel gives the idol rather
cheap and tawdry appearance, sugg estive
of cheap show.

FIameless Secnrite.

Securite, the new flameless explosive,
is the invention of Herr Schoenweg, and
has been used in Germany for two years
past 1t is composed of nitrated
hydro carbon in combination with GER
tain oxidizing agents, which is rendered
fiameless by the addition of a certain
proportion OF an organic salt. 1t emits
spark in exploding, but this spark is
harm! !ess, not possessing sufficient energy
to explode intlamable gases or coal dust.
BY the action of the organic salt the
spark is almost instantly extinguished.
In the tests mentioned, the tiameless
"securite' was exploded in vessels con
tanning the most highly explosive mix
ture of gas and air. and, in some cases,
this combined with coal dust, but while
gunpowder invariably causes their ex-
plosion the iameless "securite" did not
ignite the gas or the coal dust, and it was
demonstrated 10 be safe, even under more
severe tests and conditions than are ever
present in mining operations. Detroit

Leghorn Straw Farming.

What is known as Leghorn straw is
raised on the hills which rise on each
side of the rivers Pisa and Elsa, to the
southwest of Florence, Italy. Its adapt
ability to the uses to which it is destined
depends principally on the soil in which
it is sown, which soil, to all appearance,
exists only in this small district, out of
the bounds of which, the industry is
unknown. Any variety of wheat which
has hollow, flexible steam can be used
for seed. The soil must be titled and
prepared very much as it is for corn, but
the seed must be sown five times as
thickly as is usual for other purposes,
and this is done in the month of Decem-
Der or February. When the straw is full
grown, and just before the grain begins
to form itself in the ear it is uprooted
and firmly tied in little sheaves the size
of a handful, Each sheaf or menata, as
it is called, is spread out in the shape of
a fan, TO dry in the sun for three days,
after which it Is safely slowed away in
barns. The harvest being over and the
fields empty, it is again spread out to
catch the heavy summer dews and to
bleach in the sun, during which process
it is carefully turned until all sides are
equally white. Here the cultivatory
work ends, and the manufacturing be-
gins. -N6,0 York. Dispatch.

ARTIST AND Fe1AR.

Should you in Florence wander where
The Past has boarded riches rare
Paintings within whose perfect lines
The kindling touch Of genius shines,
Statues throughout whose marble limbs
A seeming life blood leaps and swims-
Among the names recounted long
With honor in enduring song,
One will be heard where'er you 60,
The master's-Michael Angelo.
And you will hear another name
Blown by the trumpet blast OF fame
Through Christian lands. No halls of art
Bespeak the throbbings OF his heart,
But streets are vocal, and the square
That heard his final martyr prayer.
A rosary his fingers told,
The cap he wore in cloisters DID,
Bome blazoned books, are all they show
or noble Fra Girolamo.
Both long have bosomed in the clay,
Yet both are living on to-day.
Time hath no bondage OF control
Der emanations of the soul
The years have shown how well they
wrought,
Preserving still their priceless thought
One shaped in forms most fair to see,
The other worked intangibly.

To Preserve Milk.

According to an English recipe, when
it is difficult to preserve milk from be-
coming sour and spelling the cream, it
may be kept perfectly sweet by scalding
the new milk very gently, without boil
ing. Cream already SKINNED may be
kept twenty-four hours if scalded with
out sugar, and by adding to it as much
powdered lump sugar as will make it
pretty sweet, will be good for two days,
if kept in a cool pla e. Syrup of cream
may be preserved as above in the proper.

sugar to pint of perfectly fresh cream

A SONG OF DREAMS.

A dream Of merry child at play,
Blue eyed and fair, frollcsome, gay,
Glad as the birds in the springtime are,
Sorrows afoat like clouds atar,
Careless Of trouble, untouched by fear,
Singing her way through the golden year.
A dream of a woman, old and gray,
Wrinkled and bent, vending her way
Lomesomely toward the last milestone,
Where the grim, dark shadow of death Is
thrown,
Storm stained and weary, and worn with
care
The candle of life at its final flare
A dream of grave ina churchyard lone,
Neglected, drear, with weeds o'ergrown,
With only the chirp of the crickets song,
As it sings in the grass the whole night longS
To break the silence that brood so deep
Where the worn out soul and body sleep.

other method, which is properly do
nominated dry baking, is best performed
when thin slices of bacon are placed
upon the bake pan, beneath the fish, and
also upon the surface or upper side OF

fish requires no other attention than
that it should be removed from the oven
as soon as baked. Fish baked by either
method flakes and separates easily from
