Every one ov 'em orter be run out oV

R.-'Why, I can't understand why
you are complaining. You have had
more than three months to join the
army and make yourself famous by
getting killed or otherwise. People
who expect to do business in time OF
war or peace, either, should get q move
on themselves"
B.-"0hI.I don't want you ter be
talkin' ter me. I wanted ter jine the
army but Betsy wouldn't let me. She
Wuz afeard that I'd git killed, / reckon.
She did tell me that I mite jine, but
didn't think she meant it, so I Wuz jist
waitin'hopin'they'd send out conscrlpt-

anyhow"
R.-'If you wish to know my pri
vate opinion, it is that q man who
allows his wife to dictate what he shall
or shall not do is not the one who is
likely to win fame and honor in war,
or elsewhere"
B.-"Your opinion il not with
shucks in August. Plenty ov men
who are afraid ter speak above g

are az brave az lions, and are perfeckly

the war q little longer I would hev biz

R.-"Yes, I know. You belong tc

war ia going on, but who always gel
raging mad as soon as peace is declared
and begin to fight and keep it up until
the next war begins, provided they
live that long. You will see them pop

A system of treating diseases without
drugs and medicines. 1t demands a
thorough and comprehensive knowledge
of the anotomy of the Human Body, as
well as the science and ability to follow
the Physiological Laws governing the
distribution of its vital fluids and forces.
Prof. Wilkins reads his cases from
magnetic influence. Locates the seat of
disease and defines its symptoms more
clearly than the patient. This power
is a gift and cannot be questioned by the
biggest Skcptic. If so, convincing
proof is open to you.

TEXAS SNAKE. STORY.
A Rather and a Mexican Ahoat on q
Plank For HOurs.

A Rather and Mexican Ahoat on
Plank For Hours.
II have heard of many men being
placed in odd predicaments, remarked
Captain Jenkins, "but one of the most
peculiar situations that ever befell an
individual was assuredly that of an ig-
norant Mexican good many years ago
near Indianola, Tex, at the time the
town was SO nearly destroyed by trop-
zeal hurricane or cyclone. l have heard
the story many times, although 1t hap
pened so long ago. 1t was during the
extreme height of the cyclone Houses
in Indianola were going to pieces like
SO much paper, boats were being wreck
ed, and it looked decidedly bad for the
individuals who were located in eX-
posed portions of the coast. 1t was
about this time that little Mexican
settlement on one Of the coast islands
adjacent to Indianola began to go to
pieces, the water having risen over the
top of the sand dunes and the waves
smashing the loosely constructed build
ings of the settlement into kindling
wood. Jose Baretti, one of the inhabit-
ants of the settlement, was separated
from the remainder of his family, and,
clinging to long plank, was driven in
to the inner bay over the ruins of tho
settlement.
"When the day broke, he was out of
sight of land, The waves had Gained
down and tlte storm was gone AS he
cast his eye about in the early dawn, to
his horror he found the other end of
the plank occupied by an immense rat
tlesnake. AS soon as the snake observed
tho Mexican he began to writhe and
coil In an odd sort of manner, and ap-
parently to make attempts to reach the
poor fellow, whose hair was then stand
ing on end in manner wonderful to
behold. The hours went by. The snake
kept up his antics, but for some reason
did not get any nearer the Mexican
The unfortunate fellow was afraid to
leave the plank, knowing that he would
drown, and at the Same time he was in
horrible fear Of meeting death in more
terrific manner from snake bite. He lay
pii lhc oil'i VI tHo pldlh WIFI LIS eyes
fixed on the RATHER In fact, they both
eyed each other, and this they kept I'D
until midday, when a fishing smack
came sailing along on the lookout for
castaways.
"The Mexican was seen from the
boat, and in short time was hauled
on board moro dead than alive. He
pointed weakly at his kissing compan-
ion. The sailors on the smack killed the
rattlesnake and found that he had Jam
med his tail through small knothole
In the plank. The immersion of the
buttons of the rattle in the salt water
had caused them to swell, and he was
unable to remave his tail from the hole.
To this fortunate circumstance the Mex
lean owed his life The fact that tho
coast islands contain many rattlers &C.
