The Serpent's Venom.

A physician, while talking with 3
group of friends, remarked: ut is COM
mon to hear people speak about poison
ous serpents. Serpents are never pois-
onous; they are venomous. A poison
cannot be taken internally without bad
effects; venom can. venoms, to be
effective, have to be injected directly
into the circulation, and this is the man
nsr in which the snakes kill. The ven
ON, taken internally is iuocuous.
"Another popular error is the suppose
ton that snake bites. Probably no
creature in the world provided with teeth
aud jaws has so little power of biting.
The jaws are not hinged, but are attach.
ed one to the other by cartilage. Thus
q stake can have no other leverage in
opposing one jaw to the other, and could
not in this manner pierce the skin. The
fa9gs are driven into the flesh BY 8
stroke, and not by Q bite. A snake is
harmless unless in coil. From its coil it
throws his head and body forward, and
strikes or hooks its fangs into the object
aimed at. The entire work is done with
the upper jaw, the lower jaw having
nothing at all to do with it. A man
striking a boat hook into pier furnishes
an example of the way in which snake
strikes. Biting is a physical impossi-
bility."-Meo Orleans Tin,es-Democrat.

The Rev. Mr.. Skidmore, presiding
elder of this district, who prepared
much of the fruit now on exhibition
at the Worlds Far, said be was not
at all surprised At the verdict that
Idaho fruit Was the finest exhibited
there. Our prunes, for instance, are
incontestably the finest in the world.
In drying them Mr.. Skidmore made
exhaustive tests and he ascertained
that they carry from 10 to 20 per
cent. less moisture than the prunes
grown in other States. This is an
enormous advantsge-an advantage
equal to the difference between 4 and
5-which will itself give Idaho the
supremacy in fruit growing. In
fact, Idaho seems to be the ideal
home of the prune.
The climatic conditions of Idaho
seem to be the best possible for the
growth of prunes, aprcots, apples
and other of the more popular and
choice fruits.
