In Italy the peusantry talk Of the
'jeweled serpent" and the wonderful
crown or chaplet which he wears This
serpent, which the naturalists claim Is
as mythical rs the legendary hoop
snake, is held In great reverence by
the ignorant Italians, and many Curl
GUS stories are told about his crown.
The crown is believed to be separate
from the snakes head, and to lie COM
posed of natural jewels of great occult
power. Occasionally n jeweed serpent
LAYS his crown aside while foraging,
and If it is found and picked up by
some person at this time IL will work
veal or woe, according to the time of
day. Insanity. the Italians claim, is
caused by people discovering and pick
ing up serpent crowns in the early
morning. before the dew is Of the
Qrassl-.St Louis Republic.

A story is told of sporting black
smith OF Roxburgshire," who was
famed for his success in stalking wild
geese. One day Lord Wemyss went
to see the performance.
The smith produced an old rusty bell
muzzled gun, six feet long in thebar-
rel, into which he poured handful OF
powder, ramming 1t down with thick
wad of brown paper, hitting it as hard
as II II were red-hot nail. This done,
he dived into q promiscuous heap Of
ashes, fragments Of old iron and heads
OF nails, and, having dropped these In
upon the powder and rammed them in
with wad Of brown paper, the smith
felt match for any flock Of geese.
"Come on, my lord" he then cried
"there's flock Of geese on the wilds,
and Ill show you how / deals with
emp
Lord wemyss took the higher ground
to watch the sequel. while the smith,
crawling within an easy distance Of the
geese, composed himself for shot
when about 80 yards of.
After aiming for about ten minutes,
an enormous report resounded through
the air, when "a volume ofdense smoke
arose simultaneously with the confused
geese, whose cacklings were of the
most terrific kind, while one or two OF
the flock were left Auttering on the
ground"
Fearing fatal consequences, and that
the gun had burst, Lord Wemyss has
tened to the spot The smith was in
sensible; but soon consciousness re-
turned, and, crawling up to his gun
and cycling 1t with intense satisfaction,
he said:
''Wal, my lord, no doubt she's pratty
full Of destruction to the fowl; but she's
used me wal this time. It mostly takes
90 minutes guide afore comes to my
self after letting her off-but l always

When my senses returned IL was
broad daylight, and I was lying on
cot in Muggins' cabin, the beautiful but
troubled face OF Veda bending over me.
It was about q week before was
able to get ashore, and, though l had n
trained nurse from Bastia, Veda re-
fused to leave me entirely In the hands
OF another.
Well. in that week had learned to
love the little Corsican beauty with
such IN intense devotion that l could
not bear the thought Of separation.
Her life had been one Of trials and
misfortunes. The old bag who had twice
sought the life of Veda WINS prevented
from taking my life by the timely ar-
rival of Muggins, who had come over
TO the vessel in his boat just before day
break TO see how was faring. Find
ing herself thwarted, she leaped into
the bay, and was drowned before she
could be rescued by Muggins.
She was the last OF the Baralodo fam
ily, between whom and the Dorlos a
dreadful vendetta had existed, and II
was to escape the vengeance OF the old
woman that Veda had slowed herself
aboard the Penguin, hoping to be car
ried TO some foreign land, and thus es-
cape the violence and death that con-
stantly threatened her.
