WILL SNAKE Poison CURE LEP
RosY2 In a recent number OF the
DeHfStHe WfaiciHlccJEe W0clleR
sch1ift, DIR, de Moura, a physi.
clan of San Paulo, Brazil, reports
on the favorable results be has at
tanned in the use Of rattlesnake
poison as remedy for leprosy.
Among the natives Of Brazil the
rattlesnake has long been esteemed
as a remedy for various diseases oi
the skin, being usually eaten bV
the patient, the head alone ex.
cepted because Of the poison
glands it contains. How much
this cure is affected by superstition
cannot be asCertained easily; at
all events, especial Importance is
given TO rattlesnakes in the treat.
ment OF leprosY. 1t is stated that
the leper who has been bitten bV a
rattlesuake and does not die from
the bite is shielded Tor the rest oil
his life from the disease. DR.. de
Moura, therefore, using every pre-
caution, made a series OF tests with
snake poison carefully prepared
and administered to lepers who
were violently al. The poison,
obtained by expression from
the glands, afforded the most
favorable results. The doctor
has administered the re medy to
fifteen patients in all, to some
internally, to others in the form oil
a subcutaneOus spray; and 1t is
his conviction that BY careful and
intelligent use Of the poison of the
rattlesnake leprosY can be cured.
He is now striving to improve his
mode of treatment. With much
more reserve the distinguished
pharmaceutist Professor L. Levin
expresses his opinion in a briel
article in the same WocheHSch7fE
He does not deny the possibility
OF the favorable effect OF such
treatment, but warns against ex.
aggerated hopes. He recalls a
case reported by Tschudi which
shows that snake poison admins
tered in large quantities kills
lepers as easily as other men and
women. A leprous patient =
let himself be bitten " a snake,
because popular belief ascribed
curative effects to the bite OF this
snake. Twenty-four hours after
he had been bitten the patient died
in convulsions. Professor Levin
admits, however, that this case
proves nothing against the posi-.
bility ola cure Of leprosy by snake
poison.

fectly, but who would want to talk
through such a thing as that, any
way7 advise you to save yovr
money, young man." Telephone
stock is worth today $50, ,ooo, 900 or
some such sum, and Bell got sew
eral millions of the MONEY. He
offered a tenth interest to an ex,
aminer in the Patent Office for
SGoo. 1t was refused. That tenth
interest was worth $1,000, 900
within IS years, and the man to
whom it was offered is still exam
ing patents at $4,000 per annum,
Edison was a telegrapher when
he made his first important iaven-
ton. He took it to company on
Broadway, New York, and the
manager told him he would pay
$40, 900 ior 1t and not a cent more,
The future wizard was astounded,
never having thought Of receiving
such an immense sum. He teared
the check might be bogus and was
sure Of it when the paying teller ol
the bank refused 10 cash 1t otthand.
However, when he secured identi-
fcacion the money was handed TO
him. 1t was the greatest daY in
Edison's life, and, though ne has
received millions since then tor his
ideas, he has never been made so
happy by a subsequent success.
Hugo Cook, OF Dayton, Ohio,
was a worker Tor wages IN chat
city when he made the invention
upon which one ofthe most efficient
cash registers in the market as
based. He receives a royalty OF
So apiece, and enough are sold in
a wear to give him an income OF
about S25, 900.
w. L. Buudy was a matchmaker
vhen he invented the workman's
time recorder, which is now com
ing into use all over the world for
the purpose Of keeping "tab" on
employees in factories and other
business establishments. Large
capital has been invested in the
contrivance, and Mr.. Bundy IS
rich man.
Westinghouse, who invented the
air brake, was a machlnist. his
idea was worth many millions to
him.
Gramme, a Belgian, who in
vented the ring dynamo, was a car
penter BY trade, employed in the
making of models for electric
machines, He could hardly read
or write, but he bought a diction-
ary ald book on electricity and
tried 70 teach himself. His inven-
ton revolutionized the manutac-
ture OF dynamos, brought him a
fortune and made him famous.
These are only a few out OF
many instances which serve to
show the opportunities that are
open to the workman or the toller
