II ta1os Judgment to keen brllllaneg

finds to be quite lucrative. At present
she has an order for rattIesnakes from
a railroad show which exhibits here
soon, and is making all the catches she
can. One day recently she succeeded
in landing two fine specimens of that
species, one of which has Is rattles and
the other nine.
Her method of catching reptiles is
merely to ''grab 'em back of the head
and put 'em in my basket" At home
she feeds them and sells them, making
SIS on mice full-grown rattIer, and
propOrtionately on copperheads, vipers
and blacksnakes. Miss LanOn does not
profess to be a snake charmer, nor has
she any love for her captives; the whole
affair with her is merely a matter of
business. During berrying time she
spends much time picking berries on
the mountain, but says snake-catching
is more profitable. She is not likely to
have many competitors.

when Animal. Faint.

The little gray dog tumbled head
long INFO the area, and the maid who
happened to be standing there closed
the gate. When the dog saw she was
safe from her two legged pursuers she
toppled over in a dead faint. At any
rate. the maid insisted that she faint
ed. The boarders, who crowded out
into the area to help bring the little
animal to, derided the assertion, but
the doctor that finally Joined the group
said there was nothing preposterous
about 1t.
"Of course she tainted" he said
Lots of animals faint. Cats and dogs
and even more stolid animals keel
over in moments of fear and exhaus-
ton. In the case Of horses the pros
tration is generally attributed to sun
stroke, but quite often they are knock
ed out by plain, everyday faint in
stead Of atmOSpherical eXcesses. Fowls
faint too, and the birds of the air. In
fact, it is hard to find any living crea-
ture that doesn't tOpple over in crucial
circumstances. If the lioness of the
jungle were up on etiquette she would
be just as much justified in carrying
a camphor bottle as the finest lady in
the land."-New York Press.

FacuIty OF ImitntIon In AnImaIs.

Faculty of Imitation In Animals.
Some animals have wonderful powers
Of imitation. Dogs brought up in the
company of cats have been known tc
acquire the trick of licking the paws
and then washing the face. When a
cat has been taught to. sit up for food
her kittens have been known to imi-
tate her action. Darwin tells Of cat
that was in the habit of putting her
paw into the mouth of a narrow milk
pitcher every time she got the chance
and then licking the cream off her paw.
Her kitten soon learned the same trick.
A lady tells of rabbit that she keeps
in cage with a monkey and says that
Bunnfe has caught many of the
monkeys ways. 1t is said that starv-
ing pigeons that have been brought CE
on grain will not eat peas to save their
lives, but that if pea eating pigeons are
put with them they follow their ex-
ample and eat peas.-DCGoit News

Washington Could Run.

"As to running" said Parson Weems
In his book on George Washington,
"the swift footed Achilles could scarce
" have matched his speed. 'Bgad, he
ran wonderfully said my amiable and
aged friend, John FitZhugh, Esq, who
knew him we'll. We had nobody here
abOuts who could come near him.
There was young Langhorn Dade OF
Westmoreland, a confounded, clean
made, tight young fellow and a mighty
swift runner, too; but, then, he was no
match for George. Langy, indeed, did
not like to give up and would brag
that sometimes he had brought George
to tie But believe he was mistak-
en-, for 1 have seen them run together
many a time, and George always beat
him easy enough.

Isl nAgon | orten ar rik som min far
pa landtbruk och skogar och pengar;
och pigor han eyer visst fyrtio par
och minst EFT par hundrade drangar,
Han aker / yagn, som ar hog som EFT
hus
mar nagon gang staden han gastar.
Den har uppa sidorna lyktor och Illus
och drages af fyra par hastar.
I form sitter kusken och ropar slit:
hej!
Och guldpiska svanger han ock en-;
och bak pa hundsfoten, der star en-
lakej
med fem skalpund silver pa rocken.
En- flock utaf pager der hemma star
luip'
| blaa gemaket och skinner
frackar med breda galoner af gull
och knappar af akta rubiner.
Betraffande garden sd manner jag
blot
att denna, till form och fasoner,
ser ut ungefar som vart kungliga slot
och kostar jamt fem miliioner.
Och rummen ierinne, dem raknar mar
jamt
till tusen med blaa gemaket,
och ALA a. stora och halla bestamdt
en- halfmil fran golfvet till taket.
i la~'garden, hyilken ar oerhordt stor,
kristallkronor prunka fran asen!
Och ungnot och stutar och aldriga kor
ha turkiska mattor i basen.
Och tuppfar han sitter pa pinne af stall
af karlek sa makta betagenl
Och honorna varpa | g~uldforgyld skAl
minst iva tunnor h0nsagg ON dagen.
Och grisarne spisa ur fot af porslin
marangor sd mycket de kunna,
och bada | dammar af Gains aseptin
SAINT dia likor ur en- tunna.
ia, ingen i orten ar rik Sol min far
pa boskap och skogar och angar;
men far jag ON handen en- gang hvad
han har,
f0rvandlar jag skrapet / pengar.
