WANTED MORE SNAKES.
As Means OF Bringing Sinners to Re-
pentance, Minister Saw They
Were What He Needed.

In rural town in Michigan lived a
family named Beaver. noted for their
hardihood In all manner OF naughti-
ness. They were the great torment
OF the minister's life. Finally. one
of the boys was bit by rattlesnake
and sent for him. He found the lad
greatly scared and very penitent.
After some conversation. the reverend
gentleman closed the interview by
prayer.
20. Lord" he began. I'VE thank thee
for rattlesnakes. We thank thee that
n rattlesnake has bit Jim. Send an.
other. We pray thee. to bite Tom. and
one to bite Joe. And. o Lord. send
the biggest kind OF rattlesnake to
bite the old man: for nothing less than
rattlesnakes will bring this Beaver
family to repentance" e."-NetaphysIcal

MEANING OF NOON IN LAW
Il Signified. Decisions
Conflict.

The courts of several states have
dealt with an odd question. none OF
thTn agreeing upon a similar answer.
When is 1t legally noon? Fire insur-
ance policies expire at noon, and the
word is admitted to mean exactly IL
o'cto tk, midday. But standard time has
not been adopted In all communities.
Many small towns cling to sun time,
which may be from a few minutes to
nearly an hour earlier than stand
ard.
! In Cne state fire occurred at two
minutes past noon, sun time. and the
insurance company held that the pol
icy mad expired before the fire. Sun
time is used In that town. but the in
surei sued the company. holding that
local customs did not rule the policy
and that he was entitled to his in
surhnce. The state courts sustained
him.
3 III another state a similar contention
wss taken 10 the courts and Just the
opposite decision given. Several con.
fiieting precedents have been estab.
lished in state courts. and 1t Is said

ssrs.ss carss From the Am.sss.

oas Of the strangest cargoes ves-
ssl could possibly have was unloaded at
the London docks toward the close of
March. says the Scientific American. It
consisted Of several sacks filled with
dried flies. consigned TO large firm OF
grain merchant.
These flies. originating In Brazil. have
been purchased for use In the manu.ac-
ture OF food for chickens. cage birds
and the like. They were caught on the
river Amazon by Brazilians, who travel
up the river In fiat.bottomed boats and
who are provided with gauzc nets. with
which they capture these insects in
millions. as flies hover In dense clouds
over many OF the swampy reaches of
the Amazon.
Tho flies thus caught are killed,
dried In the sun. and then placed IN
sacks. Upon arrival in London they
are mixed with millet and other grain
and are sold as chicken food. etc, Some
time ago the Brazilian government.
fearing that the Ash in the Amazon
river would be starved. forbade the eN'
portation OF tiies: hence the price OF
this strange commodity. which used 10
be Cd per pound, has now risen to Is
Sd per pound. and often little more.
