CATCHING SNAKES.

Il May BE Accomplished by tho
Fearless Only.
How do we catch live snakes?"
echoed the dealer in response to the
query. cts easy enough when you
! know how. In the first place, you
have. to be absolutely fearless of
snakes. A person who is without fear
can handle even deadly reptiles with
out danger. Most snakes, you know,
attempt to escape when approached. by
a human being That's where the
catcher gets in his work. He will
make a detour and head off the fleeing
reptile. which then comes to stop
and retreats in another direction. An.
. other detour again starts the snake on
different course, and these tactics
are followed until the reptile comes to
bewildered pause. Then the catcher
will take out his handkerchief. This
he waves at arms length to attract the
snakes attention land all the time he
Is edging up closer until he is right
over the snake. which is concentrating
all it's attention on the Tapping hand
kerchief. A quick movement enables
the catcher to grasp the reptile back
Of the head. and an expert will have it
s'lbdued and under his control with a
few gentle stockings. Black snakes,
bull snakes, pine snakes and other
Tess venomous varieties are captured
that way without dificulty."-Phila
