RattIesn akes.

From the effective character of their
weapons of offense and defense. rattle
snakes have a great advantage in the
struggle for existence against all animals
except man and his domestic companion,
the pig. Hence in unsettled localities in
North America they are abundant, es-
pecially in the warm regions of the south
and west. In many places they are the
most abundant species of snake, as, for
instance, on the plains, where no species
is as often seen as the Crotalus cont1u-
entus. That they have been much more
abundant in many wild parts of the east
than at present is indicated by the great
quantities of their bones which are found
in the caves of the limestone regions of
the Mississippi valley. The pig, as is
well known, will destroy and eat rattle
snakes with impunity. 1t is said that the
poison is not sufficiently introduced into
the circulation to cause death, owing to
the thick adipose layer with which the
domesticated pig is covered.

HOUSEHOLD HINTS.

Canton flannel makes a good bath blan-
ket for baby. 1t should be made large
enough to completely envelop the child
while it is being wiped dry.
Windows should be cleaned the last
thing after the sweeping and busting are
done Many housekeepers use no soap in
window washing, believing it clouds the
glass. Ordinary tissue paper gives a
good polish.
A recommended polish to use on a
piano case is made from equal parts Of
vinegar and parafin oil. Put together in
a bottle and shake well before using.
This is said to give a particularly bril-
liant polish.
When the ankle has been severely
spraiued immerse it Immediately in hot
water, keeping it there for 10 or 20 min
utes After it has been taken out of the
water keep it bandaged with cloths
wrung out of hot water.
Don't hang heavy curtains around ba-
by's bed. The most that can be endured
are light swiss draperies, and these
should be Numbered every week. Chill
dren need fresh air, especially when
sleeping, and curtains prevent free cir
culation while they collect dust.

your power. Propose to me your tests
and let your son prepare for a life of
slavery"
Katubua thereupon caused two turtles
eggs to be laid before the princess and
said: Maiden, of these two eggs, which
will bring forth a male turtle and which
a female? This is the first test that we
propose to you"
AT this the princess crossed her arms
upon her breast and laughed scornfully.
''This is test of folly. not of wisdom, -
she said. mot all the men in the world
could declare of which of these two eggs
should be born a male turtle and which
female"
But Ratu Tanito stepped forward
and crushed them. "Of neither" he said.
Then Katubua said, Maiden, though
in truth the question seems idle, yet the
youth is right, for a man must know
when to act"
Next there were brought forth two
bowls each covered with mat of woven
grass. And Katubua said: This is the
second test. OF these two bowls choose
that which is full of water"
Ekesa trembled, but quickly stretched
OUT Qer manu- anu ldlO IL UQ Tile nearest
bowl, saying "This is it."
"Choose you now" said the king to
Ratu Tanlto.
But Ratu Tanito crossed his rms up
on his breast and said, mot so; for who
should say that both bowls are not
emptyW
Then the king drew away the mats of
woven grass, and both bowls were empty.
"Maiden," said Katubua, ''the youth is
right. for a man should know when to
speak"
Then Ekesa bit her lip and said, You
juggle with me-"
yet" said Katubua, ''the youth has
detected our jugglery. But here is the
third test. and perhaps you will still win
him for a slave. Which loves a child
better. his father or she who bore him~
Ekesa's eyes flashed, and she drew her.
self up. 'Of a truth, she who bore
him" she cried.
Ratu Tanito turned and looked upon
the girl. and slowly there came into his
flashing eyes a tender light but he did
not speak.
At this Ekesa called to the king, "Tui
VIII, he does not speakw
Sand he is right" said the king For
a man should know when to be silent"
Then Ekesa stamped her foot and cried
aloud in bitterness:
at was trap! You have warned him
what answers he should make and have
plotted between you to shame me! Shame
rather on you. TUT Katubua!'
Ratu Tanito strobe to her side and
caught her by the wrist and said:
go back to your people. ! will none
of you. You have dishonored my father
Go back to your people. Make way
there for the princessl" he shouted to the
crowd. "Make canoe ready and set
her on the shores of Vanua Lew"
But Ekesa's eyes fell. and she did not
move; only stood In her place trembling.
Then Katubua said. "Ekesa. my daugh-
ter, the philosopher Raveniza has asked.
When should woman disobey her hus-
bandY"
And Ekesa lifted her fearful eyes and
answered, "Never. oh. my father save
when he bids her leave him.
And of the union Of Ekesa and Ratu
Tanito was born the great King Ratu
Cakau. whom men called the Seat OF
Justice, and also Tunivalu, the Root of
War.

COUNTER IRRITATION.
Hot Applications, P1asters and Bis
tiers to Relieve Pain.


The use of hot applications to the sur
face of the body for the relief of pain
commended itself to mankind long before
the formation of any theory as to how
the favorable result was produced. 1t re-
manned for Dr. Brown Sequard to estab-
fish by actual experiment the fact that
physical change is actually produced in
tissues by counter irritation.
He found that the vessels of the surface
to which the irritation was applied were
dilated for several hours, as one might
suppose they would be, while in the deep
er tissues the vessels were very much
diminished in size. Thus a mustard plas-
ter on the region of the kidneys has
pronounced effect in reducing the size of
the small arteries.
Experiment has also shown that
counter irritant, Spanish fly blister on
the back of a rabbit, for example, pro-
duces congestion of the superficial It's
sues, while the deeper organs, the lungs,
are at the same time rendered anamic.
Thus we have proof that sudden con-
gestion of the lungs or brain may be to
some extent relieved by counter irritants
applied specifically to the chest and the
back of the neck.
Several stages or degrees of counter ir-
ritation are possible of production, some
times by use of the same remedy. For
example, with an application of mustard
one may produce simple redness of the
skin, or by a longer application or
greater proportion of mustard ingredient
blsters may be produced. Strong mus
tard plasters applied to patients who
were unconscious of pain have even pro-
duced sloughing surfaces.
In irritating cough, particularly that
of consumption, applications of iodine to
the chest are often of much benefit, the
effect being due to the temporary super
fetal congestion thus artifcially estab-
lished.
Counter irritation may be properly used
in headaches, neuralgia, the first stage
of Group or spasmodic cough and in re-
lieving any sudden internal congestion or
spasm. Sponges or cloths wrung from
hot water and the various applications of
hot water and mustard are usually en-
ployed The hot footbath also and in
childhood the entire warm water and
mustard bath have been used in nearly
every household to meet emergencies.
The use of strong counter irritants Ell
Their of heat or various indictments is
to be resorted to only with great care
when person is without consciousness
or when the nerves of sensation are mac
tive, as, for example, in paralysis of the
lower limbs. Troublesome sores may re-
suit in such cases.
The use of counter irritants is also not
advised in depleted states of the body.
Blisters, and to a greater extent the
more violent forms of counter irritation,
carry away nutrient material from the
blood in the process of repairing and so
may seriously diminish the chances of ul-
innate recovery.-Youth's Companion.

FROM AN AGE OF INK.

OF all the ages ever known,
OF brass or bronze, of brick or stone,
The blacklist and the worst, think,
Is this pestiferous age of ink.
In volume vast the torrent pours;
Volume on volume blocks our doors;
Its bosom broadening as it flows
With yer 5 canned and potted prose,
Though all would dam it-and some do
The deluge still is apres nous.
Lured to the brink, women and men
moment pause-thsn dip pen.
"And youi'' hear some scribbler say.
Oh, yes, Pm there-exhibit A.
But one must live; small is my store;
wolf stands darkening the door.
He must be driven to his den,
And SO l prod him with my pen.
When children for new grammars cry,
Can parents stand unheeding by2
All mol The verb starved babe kiss,
Then dash off verses much like this.
If like this, too, my special pride,
round trip ticket provide,
That if none else the moral see
1t will at least come home to me.
Nor is it needed to proclaim
On the envelope street and name
To which the verse, in mentioned days,
May be returned with thanks-and praise.
Though Homers home be still in doubt,
My sins and songs soon find me out,
And with a promptness none can guess
Turn up, and at the right address.
If one did not, l fear | should
Doubt much that it or l was good.

ODD THINGS IN PENCILS.
Some For Use on Glass and Some FO
Use on the Human Skin.

Some For Use on Glass and Some For
Use ON the Human Skin.
"Black lead pencils" said the station
er, "are of course the kind most common
ly used, but colored lead pencils are, in
the aggregate, sold in large numbers, and
they are made in very great variety.
Artists lead pencils are made in more
than 90, in perhaps as many as 100, col
ors. In these pencils, with the lead in
wood, the wood is finished of a color ap-
proximating as nearly as may be that Of
the lead. A tray of samples of such pen
ellis thus presents very striking appear
ance, making more than q rainbow Of
color.
"There are made also colored leads for
use in pencils for movable leads. These
artists pencils of one sort and another
are used not alone by artists, but by ar
chitects, engineers, designers, craftsmen
and others having occasion to use fine
colored pencils.
"Then there is a great variety If color
ed pencils for general use, for checking
and marking and SO on, in Office and
store and library and factory, some Of
these being sometimes used on textile
fabrics as well as on paper and wood.
"There are colored pencils, these also
being made in various colors, that are es-
pecially designed for the use of lumber
men, as there are also pencils with leads
of various colors made especially for the
carpenters use.
'No doubt the common idea of a lead
pencil is of something with which we
mark on paper, though the use of pencils
for marking on wood is familiar enough,
as, in a more limited way, is their use for
marking on fabrics, and so on. But
there are various uses to which pencils
are put that must be less familiar, if not
indeed quit unknown, to many.
There are, for example, pencils espe-
cially made for marking on glass, porce-
lain, polished metals, oilcloth, patent
leather and other things upon which an
ordinary pencil would not mark at all.
The leads of these pencils are of course
made of a material especially prepared
for the purpose. With such pencils
marking is done easily on any Of these
hard, polished surfaces, and the marks
may be as easily rubbed off.
"These pencils are in use in drug stores
and hardware, glass and crockery stores,
and so on. They are made with white
and black leads and with leads in va
riety of colors, the colored pencils being
the more generally used, and the colors
most commonly used being red and blue
and yellow.
Another odd sort of pencil Is one
made for the use of surgeons for mark
ing on the skin in surgical operations and
for anatomical purposes. These are also
colored pencils, and they are made in
variety of colors.
"In fact, simple a thing as the lead
pencil might seem to be, it Is really some
thing that is made in almost endless va
riety. But for all that the pencil man
ufacturer gets every now and then from
somebody a demand for new pencils for
some special use. New York Sun.

And links with yours in the stars above,
How together and hand in hand sweep
