Fishing and hunting are recognized
as Florida's favorite pastimes. Daily
parties leave for the interior for such
sport. Among the many experiences
which have been met with recently
none excels the horrible ordeal which
two men from the north went through
a few days ago. The two left St. Au-
gustine on fishing tour to go about
sixty miles from here. All along the
stream is a barren wilderness of scrub.

stones. Being tired and sorefooted
after their days journey, the men
made themselves comfortable on the
hearty meal they both fell asleep. One

something choking him, and feeling

Shiny. 1t was very fine specimen of
the snake species which was girdling
his throttle. The monster was soon
dispatched, and the two men were
about to lie down again, after Kidding

but, when about to leave the rock, hiss
ing and rafting became more audible,
and it was but a few minutes until it
was as loud as ordinary toned voices.
The men, finding that they were sur
rounded, broke branches from the
stubby underground of pines and com

darling, kissing snakes. Realizing
that they had an all-night job, they
secured rocks and larger sticks and be-

The noise seemed to awaken the whole
barren waste into kissing and rat

Each man began the slaughter with
redoubled vigor, vainly trying to fight
their way to the stream, some hun

would gain few PAGES of the distance,
only to be driven back again to the
rock. The rafting and kissing be-
came so loud that their voices became
scarcely audible unless close together.
The hair on both mems heads stood up
like bristles, while their arms were
blood-stained to the elbows. The
stencil from the snaky battlefield was
almost unbearable and sickening in
the extreme. Within three hours after
the first snake had been killed hun

and their legs and arms began swell

by and the slaughter continued. At

For fifty feet all around the large
rock lay heap of stunned, squirming
and dead snakes, and as far as they
could see all around the barren waste
was seething tide of reptiles that
came toward the rock with maddening
fury. With difficulty they managed to

STORIES OF NAPOLEON.

During Napoleon's reign as first con

Balbi. was banished from France. She
went over to England, and the Incl
dent soon passed out of the mind of
the first consul. who soon became EN-
peror But al st. Helena some one men
toned her name, and Napoleon at
once recalled the circumstances at
tendant on her Punishment. He be
came interested and asked Las Casas:

Not at ALL" was the answer. She
was one of the best-hearted women in
the world, full of wit and Judgment,
and not at all bitter in her ideas a.
bout you even after you had sent her
away from Paris"
"iShe had good cause to complain of
me, then" responded Napoleon.
There is the great disadvantage Of be
ing compelled to depend on the repots
of subordinates.
Il had occasion to meet her in one
of my missions to England" rejoined
Las Casas. She manifested not the
slightest resentment, but was just a
little curious to know how she became
to be regarded figure in politics. She
was entirely devoted to society. and it
was a great sadness to her to have to
leave Paris
You should have set me right in the
matter" said Napoleon, with a touch
of bitterness in his tone. You must
have known | had no desire to do in
justice to any one, and least of all to "a
woman"
"Ah" exclaimed Las Casaa. Il did
not know you so well then as do now"
Then he continued. retiectively: Il
heard a story about her once which in
dicates her feeling in Faench politics.
A royalist had just come from Paris to
London. and a dinner was given to
him by the emigress, who wanted to
learn what was going on in France.
The man was a bitter enemy of yours.
| and he said enthusiastically: The
first consul is not in good health. He
isyellow enough to inspiredelight. Let
us drink to his approaching death, The
lady exclaimed, with every symptom
| of repulsion: That is horrible thing,
to drink to the death of human be
ing. | will propose a better toast Let
us drink to the health of the king. Her
amendment was accepted. She was a
| very attractive woman.
Well said the emperor, 1T can't be
| bel ped now. This is only one of the
many acts of involuntary injustice in
to which | was led by my advisers, and
which [ would like to undo. 1t is the
misfortune of a ruler that he caunot

Don't Encourage Blues.

A woman may be as beautiful as
Helen OF Troy and as allurlno as the
serpent of the Nile, yet if she be not
cheerful she is altogether incapable of
winning and keeping affection after It
is won. This old world is on the look
out for all that is bright and gay.
There is so much of sorrow lurking in
every corner that we want to turn our
backs upon 1t whenever we can; there
fore a woman. to be appreciated in
home and social life, must be like a
ray of sunshine rather than cloud,
no matter how beautiful that cloud
NAV be.
We women are so apt to be dcpress-
ed by rainy DAYS and other outside in
tiuences that really should not have
the power to dampen the tone of our
spirits. Suppose the weather is gloomy
and we get up feeling certain that we
are IN for very severe case Of the
blues. Now, if we have q mind we
can fight off those cerulean horrors
and make ourselves and every one
about us feel better and brighter in
stead of gloomy and depressed.
Many a woman has been heard to
say: Il have the blues dreadfullv to-
day and yet | don't know what for,
I'm sure" Now,in eases such as these
it is a positive sin to let gloom settle
down over our spirits when little en-
ergv will dispel it. There are many
real causes for downheartedness-
health, the loss OF friends and the nu-
merous trials that come into every
life ami which are heart sorrows that
are not talked of cTe=!Y Yet even
these can be lived down AMI we can
cultivate a seeming cbeerfuluess that
after time loses its artificiality and
brings with it tendency to look on
the bright rather than the dark side OF
life. The optimist is popular: there
fore, encourage a spirit of cheerful
ness, for with it all ills grow less and
every burden becomes easier 20 bear.
