Curing q Snakes Blindness.

One OF the most poisonous snakes AZ
the London zoo, king cobra, recently
became nearly blind. When it shed its
skin it threw OFF every part except the
transparent plate which covers the eye.
After each change Of skin this plate re-
mained uncast, and the successive layers
became Opaque, aud projected over the
eye in a horny boss. The keeper used
the snake habit Of creeping through an
aperture which it can find in the wall of
its cage to rid itself Of the growth over
the eye. He drew back the iron shutter
which separates one compartment from
the other, leaving narrow space open.
The cobra soon discovered this, and
pushed its nose into the crack. This
was slightly widened and the snake
squeezed through, rubbing off one Of
the scales as it did so. twas then in
duced to go back by the way it had
come; and after this had been repeated
once on twice it cleared the scale from
the other eye. Since then it has cast
its skin completely and its eyes are ap-
purently none the worse for it's tenn
porary blindness. Snakes naturally
drag themselves through rough grass
and holes to get rid of the old skin which
clings to them.-LondonP Public Opinion

Do Diamonds Breed9 ?

One of the qtleerest of the old-time su-
perstitions was the one that is response
BILE for the notion that pearls and dia-
monds "breed" like animals do. Rues
says: "As for what know concerning
the reputed story that precious stones
are divided into sexes, male and female,
just as are plants and animals, and that
they breed like the latter do, relate
the following, which came under my
own knowledge: A certain princess OF
Luxembourg had two diamonds, the
colors of which betolsened that they
were male and female. The princess
laughed at the notion until one day she
was startled by finding a tiny speck Of
a diamond in her caslet. She put the
two large diamonds and the little one
away together, and they had whole
family in reasonable course Of time"
a similar tale is also told by Boetbivs

WOMAN AND HOME.
VARIOUS USES OF SALT.
Its Value In the Household Illustrated by
q Few Examples.

Its Value In the Household Illustrated by
Few Examples.
One pint OF fine salt mixed with two
pints vi wood ashes and mixed with
water will mend cracks in stoves. When
clinkers accumulate in the CRATE, throw
in handful of salt, let stand few min.
utes and they will be easily removed.
a teaspoonful added to the water in
which cut flowers are placed will pre-
serve them for considerable time,
and little rubbed on the griddlcs be-
fore greasing will prevent cakes from
sticking. Damp salt will remove the
discoloraton caused by tea on cups
and saucers; if sprinRled Immediately
over any spot where something has
boiled over on the stove, there will be
no odor, and the SPOT will be easily
cleaned. A tablespoonful put in kero-
sene lamp will make the oil give n
brighter light, and small pinch added
to the starch will prevent 1t sticking to
the irons. If your ingram carpet looks
6ingy sprinkle little salt over it and
let it lie for at least five minutes, then
sweep it thoroughly, and you will be
surprised to see how much brighter it
will look.
One of the best things for cleaning
brass is salt dissolved in vinegar. Cot
ton fabrics are less likely to fade If
allowed to lie for a short time in q
strong solution of salt and water.
Sprinkle damp salt around where
there are moths and they will speedily
take their departure.
If small pinch is added to the whites
of eggs they will froth quickly.
Small doses given at short intervals
will stop hemorrhage of the lungs; for
stings or bites of any kind of insects
apply it damp and bind tightly; for
neuralgia or severe pains in the stom-
nch, fill muslin bag, heat it and lay
II against the aching place.
If the throat is very sore, wiring II
cloth out of cold sal. water and bind
around the neck, covering with dry
towel; q weak solution gargled will
also help the throat. A sponge bath in
salt water will arrest night sweats,
and If used cold is one of the best So
lutions for restoring firmness of the
flesh; battle the face upward and ther
wipe dry. One-half teaspoonful dis
solved in little water will almost in
stantly relieve dyspepsia, or cure coiic
in a grown person.
Two teaspoonfuls in about half pint
of tepid water will act as an emetic, or
if snuffed up the nostrils will relieve a
cold in the head or catarrh.
Salt should be eaten with nuts to
aid direstion.-Home Queen.
