SNAKE CHARMER TELLS
SECRETS OF THE TRADE

! snake before undertaking to exhibit it.
The snakes were fed every two weeks,
and the snake eharmer found that it was
unsafe to handle them much until three
or four days after their meal
In the early stages of digestion they
require quiet. and If disturbed were like
ly to dsgorge what they had eaten. 1t Is
a serious matter to lose u meal when
meals come two weeks apart. Sometimes
a snake would die from being disturbed
too soon after feeding. 1t was not diff
cult to replace a snake. for New York is
an excellent snake market, but the loss
of a python was a serious matter fnan-
eially. and a new snake had to be studied
before 1t could be publicly exhibited
The important thing in picking up a
snake was first to distract his attention.
This was commonly done by holding u
cloth in front of the creature Instantly
the eyes of the snake were fixed upon
the cloth and then was the moment for
the snake charmer to seize 1t.

the head and not far enough back TO per-

that the snake charmer must be wary,

of the snakes anger to put the creature

An American RoyaIlst.

From Leslie's Weekly.
Although Prince Victor Napoleon has
for years been posing az the Bonapartist
pretender to the throne of France, his
claim to that mpty distinction is now
disputed in behalf of an American. Many
Bonapartists have OF late come to regard
young jerome Napoleon 'Bonaparte of
Baltimore, as the rightful chief of the
Bonaparte family. This scion of the
famous house lately sailed to Europe to
visit ex-Empress Eugene at her resi-
dence in the Riviera. 1t was through Eu-
genies influence, when she was still a
sovereign, that the French council of
state deereed as valid the marriage of
King Jerome Bonaparte to Miss Elizabeth
Patterson of Baltimore, and proclaimed as
legitimate Inc son born to that union. As
tracing descent from this frs. marriage,
Jerome Napoleon Bonaparte takes preee-
dence over Princes Victor and Louis, who
are descended from King Jerome and his
secoro wife.

LETTERS TO EDITOR
Plea for Pure Drugs.

To the Editor of The Age-Herald.
A great many persons are ventilating
their ideas in denuneiation of impure
foodstuffs Foodstuffs are not the only
articles adulterated. Medicines are yet
more largely fraudulent. The shelves of
drug stores formerly filled with COM
pounds made on the most scientific princi-
pies are usurped by all sorts of nostrums
for any and every ailment known to the
human anatomy.
The scientific doctor, so venerated in
days gone by, whose prescription was a
sacred script, has fallen into the hands
of eharlatans who appropriate any scin-
tllations of information a prescription
may impart, and the resultant compound
IS foisted on the public for masterpiece
of science.
In my humble estimation a school of
science ought to be established in every
state in the union, where not only bread
stuffs ought to be examined, but every
remedial agent offered to the public for
curing disease should undergo chemical
examination and the constituent elements
entering into its construction, as well as
its quantitatiVe ingredients, be fully set
forth Many diseases are on the increase
from INSCRIPTIONS compounders general
ing so-caled specifics to combat diseases
of which they know nothing. The most
eminent Psychologists have failed to find
q specific Tor numbers of diseases that, in
the hands of the pharmaceutists, are
as simple as one and two and as readily
cured as cutting long hair. Nothing should
be permitted to be offered for sale in
shape of drug unless it has previously
undergone a chemical analysis.
Years ago Holloway's ointment lini-
ment, pills and tonic were offered in
France but had to undergo examination
in the school of science before they could
be offered for sale. The ointment, that
cured all sorts of things was composed
of lard beeswax and olive oil. The llni-
nent was made from soap the tonic
common whisky, and the pills Qarina)
wheat flour. That man made million
by his humbuggery. In recent chemical
examination of aristol in New York it was
proved to be Fuller's earth with Other
inert substances, but selling for the price
of the original scientific article at 81 ar
ounce. Many other frauds of this char
atcer have been unearthed.
OF all things let us poor mortals have
pure drugs j. Fl. SIMS, M. ID.

From the New York Sun.

From the New York Sun.
N Industrious snake charmer rehears-
u ing behind the scenes of an East
Side hall paused long enough in his
work the other day to let out some pro-
fessional secrets.
He made no pretense to hypnotic power
over his sinuous fellow performers but
said that everything lay in a close ac-
quaintance with the snake. After that
a snake charmer must be a person Of
eternal vigilance.
He could never be quite-sure what a
snake would do. The snake that he had
/ handled hundred times with perfect
safety might turn on him the hundred
and first time.
One indication was especially to be
| trusted. A snake. like cat, shows its
anger by a slow movement of the tail
/ When the tail begins to wag the snake
charmer must put aside the angry SER
! pent and fetch out another If his little
! turn is to be done with safety.
This particular snake charmer was
! especially skillful in handling pythons.
I The python, according to his account of
! the matter, being a constructor is usually
held to be non-venomous, but the bite OF
! the python is to be avoided when the
/ snake is shedding his skin.
At that time the python is blind from a
/ film that comes over the eyes, film
! that is shed with the cast-off skin. In this
! condition the creature is extremely nerv-
Gus and sensitive, easily provoked to an
ger and somewhat venomous.
At other times the python is to be
feared for the blow he strikes. 1t is like
the kick of a mule and no man can stand
up against it. The python strikes n man
J in the breast or near the waist II he is
disabled by the blow the snake may coil
about him and do him mortal harm.
The snake charmer found it necessary
for success In his business to keep three
pythons. and, as they cost from 800 to
$500 EACH the business required some out
lay of capital. He could no. safely work
with strange snakes. With three pythons
whose temper he understood ne could be
pretty scure of always having at least
| one to work with
He had to study the condition of q
