Antidote for Snake Bites.

An interesting illustration of the
antagonistic action of poisons Is men
toned in the current lumber of the
Pharmaceutical Journal. DR.. Mueller,
of Yackandandah, Victoria, has
written q letter in which he states,
says our contemporary that In cases OF
snakebite he is using solution of
nitrate of strychnIne in MO parts OF
water, mixed with a little glyceriAe.
Twenty minims of this solution are
injected in the usual manner of q
hypodermic injection, and the fire.
quency of repetition depends upon the
symptoms being more or less threat
ening, say from 10 to 20 minutes.
When all symptoms have disap-
peared, the first independent action
of the strychnine Is shown by slight
muscular spasms, and then the in
jections must be discontinued unless
after q time the snake poison reasserts
itself. The quantity of strychnine
required in some cases has amounted
to grain or more within q few hours.
Both poisons are thoroughly antag-
onistiC,' and no hesitation need be
felt in pushing the use of the
drug to quantities that would
be fatal in the absence of snake POI.
son. Out of about 100 cases treated
by this method, some of them at the
point of death, there has been but one
failure, and that arose from the in
jections being discontinued after l IA
grains of strychnine had been inject
ed. Any part of the body will do for
the Injections, but DIR. Mueller is in
the habit of making them in the
neigh borhood of the bitten part or
directly upon it.

would take him the same number of
years to "pick up" hsphazzard in a
shop, and accompanies this instruc.
ton with q scientific teaching OF
the why's and wherefores of his work
that the shop seldom or never fur
nishes. At the same time, it enables
him to reach the stage at which he
attains q value as Q mechanic

he went into q shop as a boy
H. can commence with the trade
schools in his seventeenth or eight
zenith year, and would be just as far
as the shop boy of completing his
trade school course. with the incslu-
abba advantage, If he has wisely used
his time, of possessing the foundation
tor an education that will ever help
him.

ALL ARE IN THE SAME BOAT.

to Divide the Industrial Movement which
is Now Everywhere Showing It's Power at
the Ballot BOx-We Must Stand United.
Now comes the cry that farmers and
laboring men can never unite in one
political or industrial organization-for
their own common interests--because it
Ia said their interests are not Che same,
but are, on the other hand, opposite and
antagonistic. AS well say that mans
two hands cannot work together for COM
mon purposes because their positions are
opposite and lRbors different. Each has
It's own secret pocket into which the
other is not admitted. Each has special
functions to perform, many of which the
other cannot perform. Yet those same
two hands find In practice that, though
their interests and lsbors are not identi-
cal, yet they are mutual and cooperative.
They meet together for common pur-
poses daily and hourly and aid each
other In the most confidential manner.
They both seize the same handle of the
sledge or axe for common purpose; and
when the right hand would handle q
hatchet the left holds the pin to be driven.
All day they cooperate and work TO-
gether most effectively for common pur-
poses, but when work is done each rests
and recuperates in its own side pocket,
sub-alllance or secret assembly, without
the merest symptom of jealousy.
Yet 1t ia upon this alleged jealousy and
imaginary antagoniSm of interests that
the enemies of labor found their hopes
of dividing and beating the labor move
ment which is now everywhere showing
it's power at the ballot box. It is claimed
that farmers desire to hire labor as
cheaply as possible, while laborlng men
desire to get as high wages as possible,
and that therein lies an antagonism OF in
terests which can never be overcome. II
this near-sighted Wow Of the matter
covered the whole case, or even any con-
siderable portion of it, 1t would have
weight. But it does not. 1t might with
better reason be said that farmers cannot
unite with each other in fraternal organi-
cations for common purposes because Of
their sntagOnisms and rivalry in supply
ing the same markets with the same
goods. Every farmer is the industrial
competitor of evrey other farmer, and
must, In the very nature Of things, be
the enemy of the man whom he Is trying
to crowd to the wall, and who is trying
to crowd him to the wall. Yet, In spite
of this narrow and short-slghted view Of
the case, farmers have no difficulty in
uniting and working shoulder to shoul-
der with each other for their own COM
mon interests, and standing msnfully to-
gether In q life and death struggle with
the common enemy.
1t might with much show of reason
be said that two lawyers In the same vii
lage can never unite in fraternsl organi
zation for mutual benefits, because each
takes from the other one-half the local
business which the other might enjoy
were his competitor out of the way. Yet
lawyers find no difficulty in uniting for
the benefit of their profession. The
same statement will apply to each Of the
professions, to merchants and to men Of
all business pursuits and industries
where individuals and firms are rivals of
