such stones as the amethyst, the aqua

snake Charming.

The secrets of snake charming are
much simpler than most people imagine.
The snakes to be handled are gorged
with food until they become drowsy, or
else they are. druaged 80 that their
senses are dazed. Sometimes they are
kept III icehoxes, and the cold puts them
III semitorpid condition. In either
case the snakes are only half alive.
In handling the reptile the hand must
always grasp 1t at certain places where
the head can be- guided and held from
the body This Is the hardest thing to
learn; but, like everything else, 1t
comes with practice. BY dint of dex-
terity and strength the snake is easily
passed from one hand to the other and
Is al1o~va4I TO coil about the body The
snake charIner. however, must be on
the alert. When the snake becomes too
lively, it IS put back into the icebox.
In handling reptile with the fangs
in-which ought to be prohibited by
law-one requires great strength. as the
strain on the system during the per-
Torrance Is very great. The grasp and
movements must be precise and accu-
rate. There Is no room for hesitancy or
uncertainty Most OF the snakes ham
died, however, are harmless so far as
poisoning Is concerned--Charles Rob-
inson IN Lippincott' 8.

Fun With Sea Turtles,

teras was part owner and captain
of the Mary Lyle at that time and was
coming up from Savannah with half
cargo of rice. when one morning the
lookout yelled to me to come up on deck
and look at the sea turtles. When got
up and looked over the rail, the whole
ocean, as far as could see ahead Of US,
was covered with turtles They were
tremendous fellows and were padding
along lazily in the opposite direction to
int In which we were going.
1T didn't take US long to rig up q
windlass and tackle and begin pulling
some Of the old fellows aboard. We
picked the biggest, as they came, and
In the course of three hours we had
caught 20, about all that we could
handily dispose Of about the ship. Only
nine Of them lived until we reached
New York, and we sold them for good
prices. The shell of one that weighed
470 pounds is now In front Of an eating
house on Houston street, New York. I
would hate to say how many turtles
were in sight Of the Mary Lyle that day
for fear somebody might think was
fish EARNING, but they came by US stead
lily for five hours, and when we got
we'll into the school it extended as far
as the eye could reach on all sides, and
there was turtle to about every 40
square feet of water, and I didn't see
one that weighed less than 100 pounds. A"
