An English woman residing in India
one evening found to her horror that a
huge cobra had coiled itself about her
veranda rails, near which she sat play
ing the violin. She was too near the
snake to run with safety, so she contin-
ued playing while she gradually edged
away. At first her only idea was to
keep the creature thus engaged while
she escaped, but when she had gained
safer distance and perhaps fascinat-
ed by the unwonted sight strange in
spiration seized her. She played air
after air of different characters.
The effect was magical. That snake
behaved like an ardent. hot blooded
disciple of Paganin Every variation
in the music, whether of volume or OF
tone. produced instantly a correspond
ing change in the attitude of the cobra
If she played a lively dance, it swayed
its body sideways in quick time and
vet in graceful curves. Once she struck
a number of false notes in rapid sue
cession OH purpose. The cobra WINGED
and writhed in pain as if suddenly
struck with whip.
Thus the creature behaved like a
mad musician till the lady. getting
tired of the sport, gradually worked
herself farther and farther and then
made sudden bolt into her room and
banged the door. leaving the cobra to
wander disconsolate to its lair in the
fields.

you may go into the goat business
and educate the people of the middle
west to eat goat meat" said Wiley o.
Cox yesterday, "but you will not learn
from books what my father learned
from experience" and then Mr.. Cox
gave away trick of the trade.
THE man who goes in for Angoras
will find that it is true they will jump
anything under 100 feet high and climb
a sapling. They will get at the neigh
boris wash as sure as it goes on the
line, and there will be lingerie to pay
for. But if you would be on the safe
side and keep the billy there turn him
up ana cut away the little creeper that
you will find at the bottom of the hoof.
1t will not hurt him to lose it, but it
ruins his ambition as mountebanll.
1t will save lots of trouble to have a
chiropodist get at the Angora with Il
nail trimmer"
Goat meat cannot he distinguished
from mutton ordinarily. In every car
of sheep that comes from New Mexico
there are sure to be from two to n doZ-
Ell goats in the lot. They all go to the
same block at the packers, and the
good wife who takes home goats chops
for lamb chops is never the wiser. Nor
is the butcher. A goat is only q goat
when he has his pelt on. After that he
is a sheep.-Kansas City Journal.
