Cures for Snake Bite.
m the Chicago Inter Ocean.

From the Chicago Inter Ocean
Last Thursday Mrs. Henry Eisenhuth,
living near Ingleby. spent the entire day
barefoot in the berry woods, and was bit
ten on the foot at a spring near her own
home just at dusk. The snake, a copper
head, lay partly concealed under a tuft OF
hay in the path and 1t drove its fdnGs into
her great toe.
Mrs Eisenhuth applied a freshly cut.
strong onion, and a mounted courier was
sent here for Dr. Frank, who found the
woman on the verge of commissions. The
swelling and pain continued for forty-eiSht
hours before it began to subside.
Earl Mung, fourteen years old, of Rock
Springs drove a large rattlesnake under
some loose stones. The reptile permitted
about five inches of itself to protrude from
the stones and young Mung attempted to
loop the tail with cord. expecting thus
to be able to snap the rattles off. But, I'M
known to the boy the reptile had coiled
about under the stones until its head was
within striking distance of the lads hand.
into which 1t sank it's deadly fangs. The
boy was a quarter Of a mile from home,
and by the time he reached the house the
hand had become swollen and numb. His
mother Immediately killed a chicken and
opened its body, and the boys hand was
thrust therein and kept there until DR..
Woods of Pine Grove arrived. He found
the boy dreadfully sick and much swollen,
but he declared that the chicken poultice
had saved the lads life. The boy suffered
terrible agony for several days. a violent
delirium accompanying the fever. in which
he imagined himself in den of snakes
causing him to fight and attempt to run
away

Of Barela. was bitten by rattlesnake yes
terday and only his presence of mind
saved his life. He drank twenty pound
pail of milk and then came to Trinidad for
medical treatment The doctors say the
milk saved him.

Excitement In Lanark.

The citizens of Lanark had an exper-
fence the other day that discounts any
that our strenuous president had with
the wild beasts of the jungles in the
Rocky mountain county. A circus had
wintered at Lanark. and the proprie-
tors were last week preparing to go on
the road. One afternoon their man
eating lion broke from it's moorings
and started out to do the town. Leav-
ing it's cage with the bound the lion
started across the fields with a growl
and swish of the tail that aroused the
natives. The animal caused conster-
nation and frightened some of the cit
liens out of a years growth. There
was a scurrying for the houses and
buildings. and the sudden barring of
windows followed.
For hours the lion was at liberty.
but was finally caught. A wall of can
vas was thrown around him and he
was induced 10 enter his cage. For
many hours the frightened people kept
in doors and the tree tops. as they did
not want TO meet the enraged animal.
There was no damage done. but the
escape of the beast caused an excite
ment that awoke the old town prop
erly.

shattered-that resistive power is
gone-that you need a medicine that
will rebuild and re-supply the lost
nerve force. that will so strengthen
you that you can resist and overcome
these terrible seizures. Such a medi-
cine is D. a. w. Chase's Nerve Pills.
