he still proposed having it. He lay in
the corner of the room perhaps twenty
minutes, and then. without noticing my
friend and myself, gided out toward
the dead RATHER He went up to it con-
fdently. and beginning at the head
licked its body down on one side clear
to the tail, and we could see a thick
oily substance deposited on the scales
Of the dead reptile. Having fabricated
one side, the. llingsnal1e returned to the
head again, and licked the body all the
way down on the other side. Then
going back to the head the king
snake threw open his jaws, and without
any ceremony began to swallow his
late antagonist, though the RATHER was
almost two feet longer than himself
and three inches bigger around This
was too interesting process to miss,
and we made q night of it watching it,
| am unable to say how that kingsnake
put that RATHER, so much bigger than
himself, inside of himself, but by eight
o'clock in the morning the last bit of
the rattlesnake had been forced into
the kingsnake's stomach. But the
kingsnal1e was a sight. He was about
the shape of a toad fish, and after the
process of gorging was over he seemed
to be, and we thought he was, as dead
as the snake he had swallowed But
we let him lie. IN week he began to
get smaller, and in three weeks he was
up and about, evidently looking for
chance at another rattler. 80 we turned
MIN out of the house and he went Gid
ing out on the prairie with fire in his
eye. and pity the first rattlesnake he

very interesting ease in point Accord
ing 20 DR.. Sharp, ants have the most
perfect sound-producing organs that
have yet been discovered in insects
These are situated upon certain seq

OF ants examined by him. the sound be-
ing produced by rubbing. But Dr.. Sharp
has NOT heard these ant voices, nor has
anybody else, although he is convinced

and twist in such way that he de-
feated the kingsnake in his efforts. I
had noticed, while the snakes were rest
ing. that the RATHER was nearly two
feet longer than the kingsnake. and.
knowing that the latter had attacked
the former for the express purpose of
making a meal on HIM, wondered at
his nerve.
''The two snakes tossed and tumbled
and writhed together for ten minutes,
and then that round came to an end.
During all this struggle the kingsnake
kept his jaws fast in the rattler's neck.
He never let up particle on that As
they lay on the ground at the end of
that round-the second one had seen;

Fought took a long stick was using
as cane. and running one end of it
under the kingsnake's lower jaw,
where he was fastened to the RATHER.
l lifted the two snakes from the ground
They simply writhed and wriggled their
long bodies. and finally wound them
about the stick. My friend ranch was
near by, and / carried the snakes there
and put them on the floor of small
room IN his house. AS soon as l put
them down they resumed the fight, the
kingsnake retaining his tenacious hold
on the RATHER, the struggle being the
efforts of the one to enfold the other in
his coils, and Of the other to prevent it.
If the RATHER could have broken the
hold of the kingsnakes jaws on his
neck, / haven't the least doubt that
this record of kingsnake and rattle
snake fight would have been broken,
for the RATHER would have won. But
he couldn't do it.
and so the combat went on, each
round lasting from five to ten minutes,
from the time i discovered the two
snakes until II o'clock at night. Then,
at the end OF q particularly long round,
my friend and |, who had watched the
fight without leaving it minute, were
surprised to see the lsingsnake let go
his hold on the RATHER and crawl to one
corner of the room. But he knew what
he was doing. The rattlesnake had
given up. He had to- He was as dead

Graduated properly:
Decked in gown Of white or blue
Pink or mauve or soft ecru,
She will read her essay, dsO

She will give advice as sage
AS a woman's twice her age;
She will stun you by the thought
Out OF her experience wrought;
She viii make you think that she
Must her mothers mother be!
What . lot she thinks she knows,
As from point TO point she goes;

mid the blosseming boughs sing, sing,
Afar and near let the glad notes ring,
Fer care not who nor how many hear
But my song is sung only TO you, my dear
You only, though echoes through orchard and
grove
Its passionate burden, love-I love
For love is its message TO all who hear,
But it's YOU you alone, whom l love, my
dear"
(She sings TO her nest)
What to me now are the raptures of Sight,
Ny four precious eggs, brown-speckled ard
white.
To warm you to life meath my brooding
breast,
Your father sits yonder on a green spray,
he feeds me and sings TO NE all the long

Together they sing)
