For the privilege of wearing trousers
the French government charges women
tax of from $40 to $12 a year This by
no means gives every woman who is
willing to pay the tax a right to wear
trousers. The government instead con
fers the right as tribute to great
merit. Trousers are, in fact, sort OF

plate glass. Nearly all of this glass is
bought by the dealer from insurance
companies. The large plates of this kind
of glass are insured when put in win
dow, and when any of them is broken
the owner of the injured glass usually
prefers that the insurance company
should replace the broken piece rather
than that he should be paid its price

The bite of the terrible cobra OF India
is looked upon asnelaa1 rartaln aeaJa
It is not surprising taat experiments 7"
determine the natare Of this aWin'
poison should attract wide attention
when they are made in a lentlhc man
ner emitting theirresult5 to be accepted
with confidence. Such experiments have
recently been conducted by Mr.. A. a
Kanthack. The venom was obtained
by pressing the heads Of living cobras
by which nerve trying operation the
deadly fluid was squeezed out OF the
fangs.
The fluid dries very quickly and leaves
yellow substance resembling gum
arabic or the dried albumen of egg, which
is easily pulverized. The activity of the
poison is destroyed by prolonged boiling
a concentrated solution of it withstand
inc the effects Of boiling for an hour or
Syo before entirely losing its poisonous
action. A weak solution could be rem
dered innocuous by being boiled from 20
minutes to half an hour.
But of course this can give 10 comfort
to any victim of cobra bite, since the
venom, once injected into his blood,
could by no possibility be subjected to
such a process of boiling.
Ammonia and chlorine water also
proved capable of destroying the poison
if applied to it for a considerable time
in strong solutions, and carbolic acid con-
siderably delayed its poisonous action.
Some hope had been raised that doses
of strychnia might prove a means of
cure, but the experiments showed that
there was no foundation for this hope,
So far, then, cure for the bite of the
cobra remains to be discovered. -

The scheme WIN Fail.

The exposure made by the Valdosta
Times several weeks ago of an effort to
form an anti-administration party in
Georgia and join forces with the popu-
lists has attracteu wide spread attention,
and the people have been put on notice.
A third party paper in Atlanta be-
lieves that there is something in this
scheme and is opposed 70 it. Referring
to the Times article it says:
eve publish the above article because
we believe there is an effort among the
politicians of the state to organize an
anti-administration party and deceive
the people into electing them by advo-
eating the alliance demands. In this
way they can once more secure the of
fees and deceive the voters by profuse
promises. There is no use for these ly-
ing politicians to get up such subter-
fuge. We do not believe that the people
can be deceived by it.
However, we desire TO put the peo-
pie on guard. That such - scheme is
cropping out is apparent from the anti
administration press"
This shows that the scheme will not
capture the third party and wheel them
into line, as was contemplated; and it is
sufficient warning, it seems, to those
dissatisfied people who are conniving at
an overthrow of the democratic admin
istratlon to desist, as failure confronts
Them. hepeople being forewarned are
forearmed.

Some of the English towns and cities
have introduced a device for ventilating
sewers-a Bunsen gas burner operating
to heat to a high temperature series of
cast iron cones over the surfaces of
which the sewer gases have to pass on
their way out to the atmosphere, which
by such contact are entirely destroyed.
In order to obviate all danger of explo-
sion caused by leakage, this new safety
furnace consists of a series of cylindric-
al rings OF segments, each mechanical
ly fitted An intermediate ring divides
the combustion chamber from the verti
cal air passages formed between the in
ner and outer ring of the furnace. The
heat of the furnace is conveyed to the
outer ring by means of thick cast iron
webs that form tiers of air channels
through which the uprising sewer air
passes, and the burner is supplied with
air taken from the outside Of the de
structor column. New York Sun.

The old saying that gambler never
dies rich, and is poor one day and rich
the next, comes true again, and in Colo
RADIO we have living example. Billy
Deutch, known the world over as the
nerviest and most expert manipulation OF
cards who ever gazed on the green cloth,
is dying penniless in Denver hospital
from consumption. Before going to the
hospital he burned notes for $4,000
loaned to friends, saying he didn't want
them troubled by any one after his death.
Thirteen years ago Deutch was in his
prime. He went on tour to foreign
countries. One day the world was start
led by the announcement that he had
broken the celebrated bank of Monte
Carlo. His winnings went up into the
millions, but he was a gambler ever az
forwards, and the poor fellow is dying a
gamblers death.
