Skulls Fer Drinking Cups.

The barbarous custom of converting the
,kulis OF enemies into drinking cups was
Il common one in ancient times among
the fierce tribes Of northern Europe and
was not unknown to the people of the
more civilized regions farther south. The
Italian poet, Marino, causes an assemblage
Of friends to quGff their wine from the
skull of Minerva. and in his Wonder of a
Kingdom Torrent makes Dallker say;
Would had ten thousand soldiers heads,
Their skulls st all in silver, to drink healthS
To his confusion who first invented war.
Thomas Middleton, Il dramatic writer Of
the early part Cf the seventeenth century,
is believed to he the originator of the
phrase, "A soldiers drinking cup" as ap-
piled to a human skull In The WITCH
one of his most celebrated plays, the duke
takes a bowl, which he is told is a human
skull, whcrcupon he exclaims:
Call it soldiers cup.
Our duchosst, | know, will pledge lis, though
the cuD
Was once her f,ther's head, which a trophy
Wen keep till death.
Ono of the delights of the immortals, As
reprcscntCd in the old Scandinavian sa2as,
is that of drinking TO drunkenness from

did not want them. The farmer took the
bag and returned to his quiet home as

A few days after he had been to the city

1t makes a great difference with whom
YOU play joke. You may have many
good friends. but some are of Il sensitive
nature and cannot enjoy laugh at their

Itinerani Vendors in BANGOR.

The Bangor correspondent of the sun
the city government there for tn, protec-
tion of local merchants against the raids
of itincrant vcnders as follows:
: Much trouble has been experienced all
over the State at different times, from the
invasiOns Of itinerant vender>, who have
set up shop, sold inferior COOL at higher
prices than the regular dealers would sell
them for, giving people the impression by
loud talk and tlaring handbills that they
were capturing rare bargains: then when
they have gulled their innocent victims
have folded their tents like the Arabs and
silently stolen away. The regular dealers
had good cause to object seriously 10 these
inyasiOns, fer their trade was injured and
the people were swindled. and they did
object but TO little purpose for in many
instances the odinanccS were not sutfci-
entity explicit To deal with the matter
Bangor had an experience lately which
taught IA lesson and bore good fruits for
the merchants and the public as well The
city council has passed an ordinance as IA
measure Of protection TO local merchants
Any itincrant vcnder who has an idea of
descending upon Bangor must show that
he has been citizen of this city for 30
days preceding the time of his proposed
sale he must deposit Il certain sum of
money with the city clerk as guaranty
that he is to continue here in business for
three months after the issuance of his city
license. he must produce his State license,
and other formalities must be complied
with before business can be transacted
1t will be seen that it etfectually excludes
an tincrant dealer from operating in Ban
gor, and protects both merchants and the
Dmhlic.

BURNED WITH GASOLINE.
Narrow Escape of Mrs. Shearer and
Little Daughter.

On Thursday last, as Mrs. Joseph
Shearer was in the act of replenishing
her stove with gasoline an accident
took place which might have cost her
her life, and also that of her little
daughter. In filling the tank of the
stove Mrs. s. removed the cork from
the top of can, in order to let the fluid
run more freely, and in doing so quite
quantity of the gasoline splashed
out of the can and over the stove. In
an instant the fluid was in flames,
setting fire to the carpet, which
threatened to destroy the house, Mrs.
s. grabbed up the carpet, wrapped it
about the burning can, and threw
both into the yard; in doing so her
hands and arms were burned quite Sc
verely, and the clothing of her little
three-year old daughter was ignited,
the right side of the child's face be-
ing burned seriously before the mother
could smother the fire. Outside of
the injuries sustained by the mother
and child, the house was damaged to
the extent of about $50, which was
covered by insurance. 1t was q mi
raculous escape from death for both
mother and child, and the destruc-
tion of the residence by fire.

ABSOLUTELY PURE

without loss OF time The idea of re-
treat never seemed to enter that fiat
head. Sometimes he would lie and puff
out with impotent rage, throwing his
mouth so wide open that it seemed the
venom must start, and sometimes he
glided toward me, his head an inch
above the ground, with an attitude
which seemed to say, "Stand still there,
and We'll sec who laughs. -
At last killed him. He was neither
larger round nor longer than an ordi-
nary lead pencil; cold, leaden gray
on the back, but underneath rosy as the
mouth of a conch she'll. The fangs were
tiny, not much more than an eighth Of
an inch long, and as delicate as the tint
est needle, A wondrous mechanism, this
mouth, with its two automatic needles,
so intinitesimal, yet so perfectly compe-
tent. l Iopened the ugly little jaws wide,
pressing upon the sides of the head, and
when the recurring fangs had risen
from their grooves in the roof Of the
mouth and stood tense stream so in
conceivably fine that the eye could bare
ly note it spurted from each, and in the
space Of two or three inches melted into
invisible spray. Yet that jet, finer than
q cobweb strand, was enough to give
swift death to the largest and strongest
animal that walks.
When the hunt was over, I told my
Indian chums Of the pichu-cuate and
asked them many questions. They all
knew of the snake, though several had
never seen one, and all agreed that it is
extremely rare. The crotalus ranks
among the Pueblo divinities, and their
charmers have no Difficulty with that
steady going and respectable reptile.
But even among these people, with
whom the cult Of the rattlesnake has
such astounding features and where un-
til recent years every Pueblo kept q sa-
cred rattlesnake in sacred room, with
special priests to attend him, the vii
lainous little sand viper is accursed.
Even those who have "the power of the
snake" can do nothing with him. He
