Another Temperance Les,on

There is no known antidote for the
bite of the tiger in Australia. Persons
bitten die almost instantly, and the gov
iernment has a standing offer of 900
for anyone who will disrovera remedy.
Some few years ago young man ac-
tually discovered an efficacious anti
dote. To prove it's value he allowed
himself to be bitten repeatedly by
snakes in full possession of the power
to kill. One day he gave an exhibition
before some government officials, but,
being much under the influence of
liquor, he did not recollect what he had
done with his antidote, and he died
shortly after the snake bite, his secret
perishing with him.
