Picnic Proverbs,

The quiet girl doesn't do any waltz
ing until she gets an ant for a partner.
If you make the kid carry the heavy
luncheon basket, you can't blame him
for tightening it on the way.
You are always out in the boat when
the shower comes on.
The fatter the girl the more swinging
she can stand.
If your girl wants some cherries, don't
climb the tree in your best clothes. It's
more economical to follow the example
of the immortal. George and cut 1t down.
A girl can set out the picnic luncheon
in such a way that a man can never find

An Electric Light Bath.

There is apparently no limit to the
curious and unique arrangements sug-
gested for the employment Of electricity
for general household purposes, as is
evidenced by the device that has just
been completed by a Cincinnati firm. 1t
is an electric light bath, which is not to
be COMPOUNDED with an electric bath.
The cabinet is of the usual size of vapor
baths, with a lid ~inclosing the body
completely, except the head, which is
exposed. The lamps are distributed
around the body of the patient, being
arranged in groups of fourteen and OPP
Grated by a separate switch for each
group.
About sixty lamps OF sixteen candle
power are used in the bath, The sides
Of the interior of the cabinet are backed
by polished nickel to give reflective
power. The effect Of the strong light Is
to brown the skin as IL it had been ex-
posed to the sun. The combined effects
of the electric and vapOr bath in one
are said to be without the usual de-
pressing effects Of the vapOr bath alone,
in fact having an opposite effect and
making a patient buoyant and frisky.-

A SNAKE RIDES A BICYCLE.

A Big I;attler Takes Possession Of y
Wheel, but Tangles Himself to Death.
1t has been some four or five years
since one day was riding my bicycle
over a road in northeastern Ken
lucky which crossed a strip of wood,
land probably two miles wide. The
road was so nearly INSTRUCTED by an
almost impenetrable growth of un-
derbrush that there was barely room
for a carriage.

the silence and beautiful scenery,
which was rendered the more enjoy
able by the sun as it cast its last
golden rays over the dense foliage,
and the thought never struck me
hat my heart would palpitate any
faster by encOuntering 4 much dread
ed foe.
| was descending a gentle slope
about 800 yards long, and on account
of the descent l was coasting at a
lively rate when l glanced ahead,
and there. only a few PAGES from
me, lay a huge rattlesnake stretched
across the road directly in my course.
was greatly frightened and put
down the brake as hard as | could,
but was so near that | could not STOP
before coming into contact with him.
He seemed not to care for me and
still lay stretched at full length with
much more ease than l was enjoy
ing. was afraid if l tried to run
around him that he would spring
upon me, and not being able 20 stop
my wheel in time l determined to
run directly over him.
When the front wheel struck him
both his head and tail gave a quick
slap against my feet. but l pressed
the pedals with all my might, and
when, as l thought, l was over him
/ looked back over my shoulder, but
could not see him anywhere, and not
until I heard his body slashing about
and heard him buzzing could Ilocate
him.
I found that in some difficult way
he had succeeded in getting between
the rows of direct spokes, and by
crawling as the wheel rolled he man
aged to keep his position.
| was not particularly pleased tc
have a close combat with such a rep
tile, neither was l willing to have my
wheel ridden by such a rafting con
Germ, but l conquered my jealousy
and determined to give it possession.
Jumping off l let my wheel fall,
and stepping back a few feet found
that the snake had sunk his fangs
into the rubber tire, and after he
made repeated attempts to free him.
self l concluded that ne was con.
quered.
l got a stick which l found near by
and mangled his head. He was SO
badly tangled between the spokes
that l had considerable trouble in
pulling him out. His exact measure
was 3 feet and IL inches, and he was
the largest l ever encountered. l

road, for it makes me culver every

AN EXPERIENCE OF ONE NIGHT.
Story OF a Young Fellow Whose White
Hair Attracted Attention.

Story OF a Young Fellow Whose White
Hair Attracted Attention.
In Albuquerque, N. NJ, n night
they pointed out a white haired
young fellow and told me how it
came about that his hair was white.
He was a gambler by profession
and happened to be in one OF the
frontier towns at a time when the
business was getting rather danger
Gus. A moral wave had swept over
the place and the authorities were
running the gamblers in right and
lett. This man was caught and put
into Jail with a couple of horse
thieves and several others of his own
class.
Death is the penalty for horse
stealing in the camps, and i'll this
case they seemed not overparticular
whether somes stray sheep got mixed
in with thieves or not. About mid
night the sheriff entered and led one
of the men out. Pretty soon he re-
turned with another fellow.
What did you say the sisters
name was!" asked one. We'll, write
it down. Mebbe she'll want some
thing done with the body"
Then another fellow was led out,
and when the sheriff and his assist
ants returned they held another
whispered consultation concerning
certain relatives. Then they took
another man out, returned and did
the whispering act again. And so it
continued. The strain on the fell
lows who were left behind was in
tense. They knew that each man
taken out by the sheriff went to his
death, and the thought of who would
be next was enough to drive a man
crazy.
The night wore away and the
young man referred to was the last
to be taken. He was conducted to a
bridge outside the town, a rope was
placed around his neck and then he
was swung off. The vigilantes pulled
him up at once, however, and as he
gaspingly recovered a fellow whis-
pered in his ear:
I'VE are going to take a vote on
this business" he said. You are q
young man, and some of us feel sorry
for you, but remember, if we let you
60 you will have to leave the town"
The promise vas made quickly
enough and the man continued,
Look here, I'll cut this rope, and
while we are voting you clear out"
The job was done, and with his
neck still smarting from the strain
of the rope the young man raj for
the brush. He wandered around in
the chaparral till morning, and i'll
the early dawn came to a ravine.
He wandered along this looking for
some water with which to battle his
wounds, and on rounding a curve
beheld a camp fire.
Seated in a row before it were all
the men who had been in the Jail.
Each had been given the same
chance. Chicago Mail.
