FISH AND SNAKE YARNS.

UNCLE EPH PLUNKETT, of Mirabella
Falls, Tex, has taught rattlesnake
to shake his tail to music.
THREE THOUSAND salmon, 1t is
claimed, were landed by Samuel Good

MRS. o. P. PAYNE, of Gainesville, Ca,
killed thirteen rattlesnakes in the lot
around her home, with piece of fence
rail, few days ago. They averaged
about two feet in length each.
AN old Maine fisherman has been
living in dory all summer, cruising
about Penobscot bay catching and cur
ing fish. He has camped in rough
fashion on the islands, hasn't slept in
a bed since last May, and AYERS he has
had a very fine time.
ONE curious result of the hurricane
that struck the southern coast recent
ly was the killing of quantities of fish.
For many days after the storm the
coast around Savannah and throughout
the stretch where it's force was most
vented was strewn with dead fish of all
kinds.
POISONOUS snakes are SO numerous
in Venezuela that snake bite is almost

almost every case.

She Works with a Man of Dry Science
but She Overcomes That.
woman who is secretary for we'll
known scientific man has caused much
secret envy among her sex because of
her abounding vitality she always dis
plays. Some of her less energetic
friends assert that her vitality is posi-
lively irritating. She works all day
and she stays up as late as she wants
to, having the good times which most
women who work hard deny them
selves, saying they simply must have
time for rest" She is always alert,
mentally and physically. This, she
says, is the way she does it: She rises
early. That, at the outset, would
frighten most people out of their desire
to be perennially gay. Her next move
Is more encouraging for she differs
from those disagreeable people who
recommend cold plunge for the first
act of the day. She doesn't believe in
cold plunges, but she does dash cold
water in her face, and then eats an
orange or some other fruit in season,
and bathes her face, neck and arms.
! BY the time breakfast is ready and
| less resolute people are rubbing their
eyes and saying sleepily: "Mercyl Is it
breakfast time?" She has copied her
report of a lecture or prepared some
original matter for the publisher. Her
morning meal begins with more fruit
She is a great believer in fruit and
water, but takes the former internally
and the latter externally Much drink
ing of water, she contends, makes the
flesh soft and flabby; much bathing
makes it firm and elastic.
After breakfast comes the long pull
of the days work with the learned
man. He, 1t is whispered, does not
recognize grammar as his strong point
at least his secretary does not. AZ
ter pursuing the elusive rules of syn
tax and rhetoric through the labyrinth
of his treaties, she goes home a mental
and physical wreck But she looks at
her haggard face in the glass and
smiles scornfully and inhospitably upon
1t. She waves her wand, otherwise her
hair brush, diligently for awhile, and
bathes her face and arms in very hot
water. Finally she heats her hand,
moistened with aromatic vinegar, rubs
the back of her neck we'll, then looks
in the glass, and, prestol the haggard
face is gone and a rosy one appears in
| stead.
Late in the evening the superior sec
rotary likes to indulge in cracker and
some stewed fruit, and the last act of
the day is her bath. Three times a
week she INDUCES in a sulphur bath.
She had shrewdly observed that at the
sulphur springs even wrinkled old
ladies came from the baths with soft
pink glow tinging their yellow checks.
| Consequently she tried manufacturing
her own sulphur baths. She throws
handful of sulphur into the bath tub
and the next morning she has as pret-
ty a flush as a three-year-old baby.
She admits that it takes determine
ton to inaugurate this regime, but
claims that once started it supports it
self by the extra energy it superin-
duces. And then she exults. And her
indolent sisters say she is very irritat-
ing. Her spirits are almost animal"
