OF which would hardly be pleasant
If the snake were lassoed in the
usual manner It would lie impossible
to prevent its springing forward and
wounding its captor. So a strong
leather loop is attached to the end of
a long stick. When the loop is Sc
curely fixed around the reptiles neck
his motions may be controlled by
means of the stick. One man holds
the snake while the other deprives
him of his store of venom. If he re-
fuses to open his mouth a little tick
ling on the nose will induce him to do
so. His ugly, darting, forked tongue
is not dangerous, but the toothlille
fangs hanging from the top of his
mouth are mis- deadly weapons. When
he thrusts his head forward to strike
muscles contract which force poison
from glands behind the fangs which
he buries in the flesh of his victim,

ticially secure the venom. which does
not flow of its own accord after the
mouth is opened, the operator presses
certain muscles in the back of the
snakes head and the poison pours
into a bottle held beneath the fangs.
About a teaspoonful at time may be
taken from a healthy, mean snake.
The venom is then injected into a
horse, which begins to swell in about
ten minutes. Very few of the animals
die from this treatment. If still alive,
in about three months a small guam
tity of blood is drawn from the horse,
from which the serum is taken. This
is the anti-toXin, and it has been sue
cessfully used in the treatment of
many small animals bitten by Venom
Gus snakes.
Nature INDUCES in many queer

psrary; and time alone can tell wheth-
e1 they be right in their judgment
But in any case the use of the X-rays
is less Objectionable than that of sur
geon's knife, and no very satisfactory
results have ever been produced by the
latter. So it may well be conceded that
a forward step has been taken.
Medical activity in all departments
of investigation is very marked. One
discovery seems to lead naturally &c an
other. For some time endeavors have
been made to obtain a serum which
shall invariably prove a specific for
snake bite. Many scientific men have
been working on the problem, which
seems now to have been solved al
though no man has yet been found
with sufficient love of investigation
to induce him to submit to being bit
ten by a rattlesnake or copperhead
in order to try the efficacy of the anti
toxin.
In laboratories where the interest
ing work of making snake serum is
carried on it is necessary to keep on
hand a large number of snakes of the
most deadly varieties, as after the
venom is all extracted from one of
the reptiles it takes about two weeks
for him to secrete fresh supply. At

securing of THIS poison IS a very dan
