ORIGINAL NEW ENGLAND.
II Is Said That 1t Was Located on the

Pacific Coast.
There Is a common saying that IL the
pilgrim fathers had only landed on the
Pacific coast a large portion of the
Atlantic seaboard would never have
been settled. Californians, Oregonians
and Washingtonians believe this Inn
plicitly. In other words. the charms OF
the Pacific coast in the way of climate
are so appreciated that, having once
Experienced them, men are unwilling

one man in thousand living on the
Pacific coast knows that as matter
of fact the accents Of our mother
tongue were heard on the beach not
far from San Francisco forty-one years
before English was spoken on Plym-
outh rock.
More amusing still is the fact that
the original New England was on the
Pacific coast, for Sir Francis Drake in
1879 at the close of a months stay,
took possession of the country for his
sovereign. Elizabeth, and named the

IMMUNE TO POISON.
Practical Methods of the Snake
Charmcrs of the Orient.


For many years IL was regarded as
one of the East Indian miracles that
the snake charmers of the orient could
encounter the cobra in an arena, allow
the serpent 10 bite them time and
again and survive the deadly poison.
This dangerous feat puzzled the doc
tors OF the British army and was never
quite unds stood by scientists general
ly until within recent years, when the
secret of these jugglers with fate leak
ed out. The East Indian snake charm
er begins at an early age to make him
self immune from the venom of the
cobra. lie takes the infant serpent
and allows IT TO bite him. This injects
into his system a very mild dose Of
the poison. lie rePeats the operation
many times. and then ventures 10 al
low cobra sQmewhat older to bite
him. Gradually he permits himself to
become inocwated with the venom Of
younger serpents until he has become
so accustomed TO the poison that his
system is immune By the time he
grows uphe has become so thoroughly
accustomed TO the spell that it has
practicable no effect upon him. 1t is
like the drug habit-one can work
oneself to a pitch of enduring a dose
that would be sufficient to kill several
persons unaccustomed to the influence
of the drug. Thus the seemingly au-
dacious trick was exposed as a very
practical thing, after all.
