The tOioON " THE COBRA.
SO Far No Remedy Has Been Discovered
for 1t.

The bite of the terrible cobra of In
Ola is looked upon as meaning certain
death. 1t is not surprising that exper-
1ments to determine the nature of this

nerve-trying operation the deadly
fluid was squeezed out of the fangs.

poison is destroyed by prolonged boil
