saver and a rubber hose saver
in one, the Hose Reel is Just
what you want. People who
bought the last lot have found
this out and tell us so. Ifyou've
ever used one, you will agree
with us. If you haven't and
want to find out their value
by experience, it will be good
chance for you to take one Of
these; the price is trihing-the
value great.
We have added a lot Of
small Iron Stoves to our stock
and will probably be able to
suit you now even if you want
something besides a Fischer

day work, and a cheap article
the Pansy Iron Stove stands at
the top of the heap, but for one
that will cook the incest of
delicacies without the aid of a
cooking manual, we commend
the Fischer Steel Range to
your notice.

THIS HAPPENED In TRINIDAD.

Eggs That a Snake Had Swallowed Were
Hatched Into Chickens Afterward.
'Some time assw MI dRfra a sHHj .,,v ..-
prietor of the tobacco plantation of Cha
quanas, on the island Of Trinidad, was
annoyed by being deprived OF his usual
breakfast egg day after day." an ophidolo-
glst remarked, beginning a story. THE loss
was the cause of considerable disturbance,
for the cook, corpulent negro, had limited
her suspicious that IL was owing to the
thevery of Biharri, the Hindoo butler The
latter. on a hint from an American visitor,
had constructed an ingenious nest to beguile
hen into laying three or four eggs a day,
and he had been more than usually atten-
tive 10 every cackle, but instead of three
eggs every day not an egg could be found,
although the hen cackled as usual.
MIR. Anderson was displeased. and
among the servants recrlmlnaton was loud
and bitter. Bharri watched the cook ana
the couk watched Biharri, while the house
maid and stable-boy watched both, and
were watched In turn. A little apart from
the other buildings is the stable. In lurk-
ing-placeS there Mr.. Anderson, as he rode
into the yard one day, found the cook, the
housemad, the stable and Biharri.
Each held up hand in mute appeal not To
come nearer, while the cook in stage
whisper explained that the hen was on the
nest Presently the joyous hen flew forth,
cackling louder than ever. The watchers
rushed from their hiding places, crowded
around the nest, and plunged their hands In
TO grab the prize. As they did so an enor-
nous snake shot out, and while screaming
in chorus they rushed for the door. The
cook fell over the snake, Biharri fell over
the cook, and the stable-boy and housemaid
took refuge in the kitchen. Mr.. Anderson
jumped from his horse and with his riding
whip stretched the snake dead by blow on
the head.
Then the servants gathered round the
dead thief. and BihaIrfs face wore the tri-
umphant smile of innocence vIndicated. He
pulled out his knife, ripped open the snake,
and nine fine eggs rolled out fiom the capa-
cous stomach. They were marked and
placed under hen. Three weeks after
ward the incubation was finished, and six
young chickens burst their shells. The
other three eggs were unproductive, owing
perhaps to their longer exposure to the ac-
ton of the powerful gastric juices of the
snake. The snake was the crbo well known
as the devouIer Of the young of the deadly

off the skeleton finger a ring. Returning to

The Icelandic luxury that seems most
popular among men is snuff, and they have
the most astonishing method of taking it
yet discovered by man, with ali the ingpn-
uity that has been exercised in titillating
tie nerves of the nose with tobacco powder.
The Icelander takes his snuff from horn

but with one positive curve, as in the horn

after the manner of the apex of a pepper
box, the object being to provide means of
Sitting las one Sits pepper the snuff from
the horn.
Now the Icelander clasps the horn firmly
In his right hand, the large end next his
little finger, and, in case OF all extra large
horn, extending beyond the hand. This
brings the little end Of the horn between
tue thumb and forefinger, the nozzle point
Ing upward. The little end of the horn IL
