Mr.. Louis Meri1oil, we'll known New
York caterer, is fond Of telling of "a large
black snake that was fast friend of his
for many months.
My first acquaintance with the SNAKE
said he, "came about when went on sol
itary fishing excursion. ! was iu the habit
of taking a small punt on a stream in the
northern part Of the state, Al,cr fishing
the stream ] always m0Ored the pant in
the same place, and stepping ashore pro.
ceedel to clean the fish that / had caught.
While thus engaged this black snake came
from beneath a rock aud after quietly
looking me over proceeded to make meal
of the refuse from the fish. lie then re
tired. The next day found him waiting
for me when returned, and after That we
became great friends 1t was not long be-
fore he would glide into the punt, and coil
ing himself up go fishing with me,
never did anything to offend him and he
evinced no fear of me.
One day was unable to go on the stream,
but gave directions TO two friends who de-
sired days fishing where to fad the punt,
but neglected to mention my friend the
snake. As they approached the boat they
were Mortified to see the large reptile Gid
ing toward them In fear and anger one
Of them raised a large stone, and dropping
it crushed the life out Of my whilom com
panion, When heard Of it'll was Gugry
and sorchearted for a long time over the
loss of my curious pet New York News.

y cemetery seems queer place in which
to set upa gambling hell, but those who
woo fortune at Squirrel Hill, Pa, evident
ly care little for their surroundings. At
any rate Robert Walters, sexton of the
German Evangelical Lutheran Cemetery,
is in Jail for the oifense of maintaining n
gambling house in the graveyard. Walters
lives in the dwelling at the cemetery gate
For months past he has been using his
house as a resort, permitting such games
as faro, poker and Il strictly German pas
time styled chip" He was paid percent
uge of the money handled, and in addition,
il is alleged, disposed of strong liquid re
freshments to his guests Often there
were u score or more of players in the
house.
The existence of the game" was discoy
cred in II peculiar manner. One Sunday
there was dispute and some of Walters
customers bought their own supply of
beer, and takingup IA place on the cemetery
property proceeded to have good time.
Walters called the police, who arrested the
men, Upon being arraigned they were
fined and overheard to remark that if
Walters didn't pay their fines they would
tell something to his disadvantage. The
officers kept quiet until Walters came for
ward and settled He was arrested, and

The Cause OF Poor Health

Is often found in the neglect OF ones
own self. A light cold or slight head
ache is treated as not requiring much
attention; the assumption being that
they will soon pass of, and it is only
when a case of fuII-hedged sickness de-
velops Itself that the consequences OF
that neglect are fully realized. As a
preventive and positive cure for Conghs,
Colds, Hoarseness, Splitting OF blood,
Asthma, Pains in the Chest and first
stages Of consumption, use Eilert's Tx
