INCUBATION FOB SNAKE BITE.
DIR. Calmette Finds That a Lethal
Dose Destroys the venom,s Effect


Many readers of Hamlin Garland's re-
cent story of the Moki Indian snake dance
doubtless wondered how it Is that the
indian apparently ssuffer no inconve-
nience from the bites of rattlesnakes. for
unquestionably at times the performers
in the dance are bitten. The late Captain
John G. Bourke, who was the first intel
ligent white who witnessed the Mod
snake dance and kept the record Of 1t,
thought that these Indians possess anti
dotes we had not yet discovered. Today
the real study Of anti-toxinss has COM
menced. and IL IS by DR.. A. Calmette.
chief of the Pasteur Institute OF Lille,
that the properties OF an a-nti-venomous
serum lave been exactly explained. DIT.
Phssalix's experiments show that under
certain precautions a man or an animal
may suffer hardly any Inconvenience from
the venom Of a viper. Remarkable re-
suits have been obtained with the venom
OF the cobra When two miliigrammes OF
the dried cobra poison in solution were
injected into a rabbits ear, the animal
was dead after twelve minutes.
But when q rabbi was protected BY
former extremely weak solutions OF the
cobra poison. and then the same strong
infusion OF the venom was injected into Ii.
the animal was not Inconvenience. DR..
0atmette tuteStlsatton began with the
study Of the nature and venom OF many
different kind OF snakes Whence does
the snake collect its venom II must take
II from its W blood and ~oncentrat the
poison In a particular gland OF course.
there may be changes In this poison diff
fering from that found in the original
source-the blood Of the snake itself. We
know that the pig and the are
not affected by snake bites, and 1t Is nat
ural to suppose that in their blood there
Is something. which makes them immune.
Following the Roux method. DIR. Cal
mette took a horse, because this animal
shows a natural resistance to snake bites.
The horse was ~inocuiated with a lethal
dose of cobra poison, and the animal was
not Sensibiy inconvenienced. The iniec-
tions were eontinued for three months,
by which time the horse could stand a
dose fifty times the lethal strength. The
blood of the horse had acquired immunity.
Taking twenty cubic centimetres of this
horse serum, it was found to be sufficient
.sto cure a man suffering from the bite of
a deadly reptile" More curious was
this:-When a snake was inocalated with
this horse serum. he did not suffer when
bitten by any other kind Of variety of
snake

An Automatic Ftsbinr Rod.

A Chicago genius was recently granted
q patent IN an automatic fishing rod.
This great labor-saving device consists
of a rod and holder cooked and poised up
on a strong spring. In this position it
may be left upon the shore by itself af-
ter the owner has baited the hook and
cast 1t into the water. When q fish seizes
the bait the tug It gives the line opens the
trigger and the fish Is jerked ashore and

the spring. This invention at once re-
moves fishing from the list of laborious
occupations and makes 1t nothing but
pastime-New Ideas.
