OUR vENOMOUs SNAKES.
What to Do IF Bitten by a Rattlesnake
or Copperhead.

There are only few varieties of ven
omous snakes in this country. The
chief of them are the rattlesnake and
the copperhead. In the South is to be
round variety of rattlesnake, the dia-
mond-backed RATHER, and u variety of
copperhead that lives around ponds
and rivers, called the water moccasin.
Farther West, on the other side of the
Mississippi River, there are several
other varieties of rattlesnake.
The power of the venom of the
rattlesnake is not nearly as great as
is usually supposed
DR.. S. Weir Mitchell. who has made
life study of serpents, says that no
more than two dogs in nine die after
being bitten by rattlesnakes.
The poison of the copperhead is less
virulent than that of the rattlesnake,
and the copperhead is becoming one
of the scarcest of American serpents.
The Northern variety of rattlesnake
(crotalus-a rattle; horridus horrid)
grows to length of from three to
five feet 1t varies from a yellowish
DIOWu 10 dluOsl IL Qetu DldCh dDONc,
with three rows of irregular darker
spots running together in zigzag
blotches. The under parts are gray
ish-yellow.
OF course, the specific feature of
rattlesnake is its rattle, which, as ev-
cry body knows, is a series of bony
rings at the end of its tail.
1t has been generally supposed that
the number of these indicates the
number of years the rattlesnake has
lived, but this is delusion. More
than one rattle is occasionally produced
in year, and the snake is apt to lose
rattles by accident.
The rattle of the snake sounds
much like the vibrating noise made by
some kinds of grasshoppers. If you
hear sucn a sound near you, it is just
as well to pause and look sharply. If
the noise ceases gradually when you
remain motionless and starts up again
when you move, 1t is evident that it is
not produced by an insect.
Fortunately, crotalus horridus is not
an active, aggressive fellow If you
give him the opportunity he will move
out of your way.
1t is a mistake, however, to fancy
that he must coil to strike. He pre-
fers to strike from a coil, because it
gives him a greater reach, but he will

FEATURES OF BUENOS AYRES.
Live, Busy Metropolis with a Popu1a-
ton of a Million.

The city is laid out like a chessboard,
being divided according to the ancient
plan of all South American cities, into
cuadras or squares, with endless
straight streets which have the one
advantage, IT seems, during the spells
of revolutions, of letting the govern
ment make a clean sweep of the rebels
with the aid of artillery, or the other
guns first. In the older parts the streets
are narrow and always treeless, but
the newer thoroughfares have the APP
pearance of European boulevards. The
houses were Originally all built accord
ing to a prevalent one-story type; but
with the rise in the value of property
and the increase of business, houses
ranging from three to six stories have
been going up in the central part of the
city. All the streets and public squares
are splendidly kept and well lighted,
and there are a number of beautiful
parks which have been laid out with
seeming disregard of the cost.
Few people in the United States are
aware that this is a city of almost a
million inhabitants, with the area of
Paris, and that it recalls in its immense
business activity some of the large
oils, however, Buenos Ayres is an
anomaly. 1t will be recalled that the
great source of wealth of the Argen-
tine nation lies in it's wheat and corn
fields its enormous herds of cattle and
sheep. and the expectation of meats,
hides and wool. But owing to the
absence of workable coal and iron
mines and the impossibility of exploit
ing the forests of soft woods because
of their distance from the ways OF
communication. there are practically
no articles manufactured in the Argen-
tine.
A few factories are kept alive by a
high tariff, but they are looked upon
as dollhouse, plants hardly capable of
prolonged existence. Buenos Ayres
thus represents a cosmopolitan con-
glomerate occupied In exporting what
the interior of the country produces,
and in importing what 1t cannot man.
ufacture. The city is thus a national
luxury made up of non-producing con-
sumers. an all-absorbing center which
has done nothing but grow until it rep
resents the life of the nation at the
expense of all other towns.-New York
Evening Post.

launch himself in any direction, coiled
or uncoiled.
At best he can only strike half the
length of his body. 1t is easy to Keep
out of harms way. He never pursues
a foe, and, as his eyesight is poor and
his movements, except when he
strikes. rather slow and sluggish, he
is not hard to kill.
Even when he bites he does not al
ways inject poison in the wound. he
is economical of his venom, and does
not waste any when he can help it.
1t is always wise, when strolling
about in a country in which rattle
snakes may be encountered, to carry
strong staff or stick.
Many harmless snakes, when sur
prised and alarmed. vibrate the tips
of their tails rapidly, and if this is
done among dry leaves the sound
made is not unlike that made by a
crotalus horridus shaking his rattles.
The copperhead Ctrigono-triangu-
lar: contortrix-twister), the only 9TH
er venomous snake most people are
likely to meet outside of museums or
geological collections of animals in
this country, is closely allied to the
rattlesnake.
1t has a thick body, from two to
three feet long; a short tail, without
rattles, and is slow and clumsy in its
movements; but, lurking as it does in
moist and shadowy places, and giving
no warning of its proximity, 1t is more
dreaded than the rattlesnake. The
copperhead is rather light, reddish
brown above, with series of trans
verse darker bands which widen on
the sides into patches.
Its tail ends with a horny point
but 1t has no rattles. 1t is not seen
SO often as the rattlesnake, and I'M
less one treads upon it it is not apt to
make an attack.
All other snakes in this section Of
the continent of North America are
absolutely harmless.
The cure for snake bites in common
practice is to fill the patient full Of

writer. is a great mistake, as the ven

a DINNER WITH TOLsToY.

ment Marked the Repast.
Edward A. Steiner describes visit
to Tolstoy in the Woman's Home Com
panion. He says:
Countess Tolstoy, as every one
knows does not agree with her hus-
band in all his theories; but she agrees
with the world which worships him,
and 1 believe that she is very proud
of him, and very devoted, although
her devotion has been severely taxed
in various ways. She has copied yards
of unreliable manuscript while babies
of various sizes were pulling at her
skirts; she has translated books into
three or four languages and has trans
formed all sorts of garments to meet
the needs of the changing sixteen,
her children. For many, many years
she has nevertheless been cheerful and
happy; and is it possible that there
can be a greater test of a wife's good
ness or a woman's greatness?

The meat was of the Hamburg steak

kasha and two eggs constituted his
dinner. 1t must be over twenty years
since he has eaten meat, and probably
longer than that since he has tasted
liquor or smoked tobacco.

One of the best remedies for the

tage of being a domestic article al

ed tightly above the wound to form
a ligature The wounded spot is then
cut as deeply as the fangs may have
entered. Let the wound bleed freely
Suck it with the mouth, after which

wound, changing the soda as often as
it turns black. Strange to say, rattle
snake venom taken into the stomach
is quickly and safely assimilated by
the digestive organs.
AS much as thirty drops have been
taken at once without harm to the
experimenter, who, however, was
careful to rinse the mouth and teeth
with soda and water at once after
taking that amount.
Another remedy is ammonia, which,
if applied promptly and freely, will
cure almost any kind of a snake bite.
If the foot is bitten, prepare a foot
bath of a quart of coal oil mixed with
teacupful of salt.
This will also cure the bite of cop
