Snakes Are Hard to starve.
New Orleans Times-Democrat.

New orleans meS-DemOcrat.
The man who tries 10 starve a snake TO
death is in a bad way said the man who has
had some experience in dealing with reptiles.
and / happen to know what 1 am talking
about because OF a little thing that happened to
me a number OF years ago. There is really no
telling how long a snake can go without food.
1t is estimated that a horse can live twenty-five
days without solid food. A horse Will live on
water for that length OF time. Bears can live
for six months without food. They generally live
through the winter months by sucking their
paw. or course, they have some food on hand.
and they slip out 20 get what they can, but the
main sustenance of the bear is the accumulated
flesh of the summer. But l am inclined 10 be-
heve that the snake can hold the record when
II comes 10 doing without food. / had an ex-
psrience a few years ago which convinced me OF
this fact. l caught a rattlesnake in my hem
house in the southeastern part Of Arkansas. and
happened TO catch him so that he could not get
out. There was a gOOd-sized rathole in the place
and he darted into this as a last resort. |
stopped the hole so the snake could not get out
and Tor the purpose OF starving the reptile 10
death 1 never thought any more about the
that. when l had occasion 10 make some repairs
about the place. II was necessary 10 do some
excaVattng. l was simply startled 10 find. "A
short distance below the surface. the snake I
had sought 20 starve TO death. He was a little
lank and was not very active. but he was still
alive. l felt sorry for the reptilian, and would
not kill him. allowing him 10 crawl away,
Since that time L have been convinced that a
snake could do without food for a considerable
length OF time. and the claim that they can 90
twenty-one months does not startle me AT ali
for the snake in this instance I am sure never
had a bite 70 eat during the time he was in the
rathOle."

saved. just as the beer wastings of the
saloon are saved. and they are finally made

know it, but she frequently gets this kind
Of vinegar, and Ii would probably surprise
you to know what a very large amount OF
the vinegar put on the market is made from
the drippings which ooZe from punches Of
overripe bananas. Because of the fact
that New Orleans is the greatest banana
market in the world, there is in the local
trade a vast amount of banana vinegar
sold. Go down 10 the fruit wharf II you
doubt my statement. There you will find
a little industry which you probably had
never thought Of before, and one which
shows how close we shave things in these
modern times. TIL fact is that We do not

Armour's example in using every part OF
the hog, and converting previously unused
portions of the swine's anatomy into
sources of profit. has been ~scrupulously
followed by the American people. and We
cannot find a better illustration OF the
fact than we find in this very business of
manufacturing vinegar. We simply use the
leavings to make a useful and valuable
commodity"

There are many ways to make vinegar"
said a local dealer, and there are all kinds
and brands of this useful household arti-
Gle. But few persons ever stop to think
about where the vinegar they use comes
from. The fact is that the average house

any sort Of reference TO the brand. Some
times we have calls for apple vinegar, but
it is really a rare thing. L like apple vine

that they turn out a big per cent. of vine

comes from this source is made of beer.
The little quantities Of beer which are left
in the glasses are poured into a receptacle
which Is kept for the purpose. The drip

wasted in other ways. is dumped into the

the annual Epiphany ceremonies on the

peasants are seen trudging along the Jeri-

haversack and carry-all on their backs.
Some OF the pilgrims are old and weather.
worm, others young and cheerful. while a
few, overcome by sleep and fatigue. are
lying prone along the roadside. But some
how the whole lot, young and old, manage
TO reach the banks Of the river in good
time for the ceremony.
They spend the night, perhaps, in the
Russian hospice at Jericho. where they
simply huddle together like a flock OF
and the whole crowd has gathered on the
bank, where Greek priests, who will pres
emily drive a most lucrative trade. await
them. The principal articles sold are
branches OF trees from various sacred
spots. stones from the Mountain Of Temp

ness and ~rosaries with olive stone for
beads. To whatever religious value Is
claimed for these articles the Russian
peasants implicitly give credence. and they
willingly pay their money 70 obtain them.
During the hours Immediately preceding

In prayer and silent devotion. To many
pilgrims this occasion is one Of the great

not only 70 visit the Jordan. but actually
To battle In its sacred waters. Suddenly
chanting Is heard. and the crowd quickly
opens 20 let a procession OF purple-clad
ecclesiasticics pass 20 the waters. then

themselves along the banks. eager and

sooner does the sacred symbol touch the
water than a dive is made into "a by the
enthusiastic crowd, which splashes and
sprays and dips-altogether a strange
scene. Such is the baptism. and the longer
it lasts the greater the merit the pilgrim
will enjoy.
All dripping with water each shroud Is
now wrung out and slowed away TO serve
as the cereclOth when the pilgrimage OF
