Newspaper Callers.
The average citizen has very lit
tie idea Of the number Of calls which
are daily inflicted upon the editor Of a
big newspaper | was not with the
colonel over five minutes and during
that time at least ten men called to see
him on various matters. Men wanting
positions, men with schemes and men
with advice. men with favors 70 ask,
men &c borrow money and men with
manuscripts TO sell. They all insist
upon seeing the editor, and each re-
CARDS hts business as the most impor-
tant of the day.
1t is a never ending stream. and each
man is MORALLY offended if he is kept
waiting or refused an audience, and yet
newspaper men who are familiar with
the manifold claims upon an editors
time are the loudest In their complaints
about the red tape" which compels
them to send in their cards and state
their business before they are admitted
They want to march right in 70 the edi-
tors desk, roost on the edge of bis
table and compose themselves for a
comfortable chat.
If a paper could be run without out
side interruptions the editor would have
an enjoyable time, but being the target
for an assorted gang of cranks, bores
and nuisances, he is obliged, in justice
TO himself and his readers, TO hedge
himself about with some protection. If
men had more sense this would not be

IN THE WATER WITH a RATHER.

Wiley Pressed the button aud the Snake
Came Near Doing the Rest.
J. G. Wiley. Of Brooklyn. who had
been enjoying his outing in the vicinity
of Blood's, this county. was a passen-
ger homeward bound on Erie train s
Mr.. Wiley told a reporter at the depot
that he was going home a week before
his outing was owe because he had a
little experience with a rattlesnake on
the Cohocton that had rather unnerved
him.
Il was trout fishing Saturday, said
Mr.. Wiley, and was wading down the
stream with tolerably good success
with the trout, when just ahead Of me
saw a snake swimming the creek. /
didn't notice what kind Of a snake il
was. but reaching down in the water l
found a good sized Hat stone and tossed
it at the snake. Ny aim was so good
that the stone struck the snake near or
on the head, and carrying IL to the bot
tom with its weight pinned il there.
The head was held tight beneath the
stone, but the tail and a couple of feet
Of the body were thrust above the sur
face. where they thrashed about furi-
ously. and ! discovered that the REPTILE
was a rat,lesnake.
Acting on the impulse Of the mo
ment did then probably as foolish a
thing as any man ever did stepped
70 where the snakes noisy tail and
writhing body were lashing about in
the water, and Selling the tail ierked
the snake from beneath the stone. with
the intention Of whipping il against a
tree that stood at the edge of the creek.
Although the snakes head had been
damned down on the bottom by a
stone and held there for nearly a min
ute, the venOmous and now furious rep
tile had plenty Of life and no end Of
malice left.
Il had no sooner ierked his head from
under the stone and above the water
when he turned on me like a fash. shot |
his head back and sunk his fangs in the
sleeve Of my fishing coat Just above the
wrist II he had aimed half an inch
lower the curved injectors Of his venom
would have punctured my flesh, and /
would doubtless have been saved all Of
life's subsequent trials. In another sec
ond hurled the deadly reptile from
me. It lay for a moment quietly on
the water, and then slowly swan on its
way.
1T was all could do to get to the
shore, so deathly sick and cold had |
become when the full force Of the peril
my rashness had placed me in rushed
upon me. ! fell on the bank in a half
unconscious state, and it was a long

The majority Of well-read phys
icians now believe that Consump-
ton is a germ disease. In other
words, instead of being in the con-
stitution itself it is caused by innu-
merable small creatures living in the
lungs having no business there and
eating them away as caterpillars do
the leaves Of trees.
A Germ The phlegm that is
coughed up is those
Dlsease' parts Of the lungs
which have been
gnawed of and destroyed. These
little bacilli, as the germs are called,
are too small to be seen with the
naked eye, but they are very much
alive just the same, and enter the
body in our food, in the air we
breathe, and through the pores Of
the skin. Thence they get into the
blood and finally arrive at the lungs
where they fasten and increase with
fughttul rapidity. Then German
comes in, loosens them, kills
them. expells them, heals the places
they leave, and so noursh and
