 The populistic wave which threatened to swamp the soeialistie labor party in this country appears to have been only temporary, according to the report of Lucien Sanial, one of the American del egates to the international congress. Since the holding of the St. Louis con vention the accessions to the ranks of the socialists are said to have been more numerous than at any other period.
 The socialists claim this to be due to the feeling that by indorsing Bryan for president the peoples party has vir- tually consented to its absorption by the democratic party.

the tropical banana, but the latter has
been knocked out by the big apple

it is that the Indians apparently suffer

Remarkable results have been obtained

But when a rabbit was protected by

nature of the venom OF many different
kinds of snakes. Whence does the
snake collect its venom? 1t must take

the poison in particular gland. OF
course there may be changes in this
POISON differing from that found in
the original source-the blood of the
