NEAR DEATH THROUGH SNAKE
Sleeper Awoke to Find Monster Coled
 sAround His Neck.

F. E. Feve, an employe of the Northern Electric, had thrilling ex' perience with snake Tuesday morn ing. Feve with two companions occu- pies tent made out of gunny sacks in the western portion of Oroyille.
 He was awakened by feeling of strangulation. He attempted to cry out, but so tightly was his throat bound that he could make no sound As he became fully awake he realized that something must be done or he would choke He grabbed frantically for his throat and his hand slipped over the scales of a huge snake which had coiled itself around his neck. He frantically pulled the coils loose, the reptile resisting him and biting him in the cheek.
 His two companions, awakened by the noise, came to Feves rescue. The two pulled the snake away and threw it to the floor, where it glided away while the men attended to MT. Feves wound. The reptile was gopher snake.-Redding Correspondence San Francesca Call.

Tjoers Tap Rubber Trees.

Near Perak in the Malay peninsula is prosperous rubber factory run by 8 long headed Scotchman. In order to obtain the sap from which the rubber is made it is necessary to puncture the bark of the trees. Laborers are scarce in that district, but there are an abundance of tigers. There were not enough men to tap" the trees, but the Scotch proprietor hit on a bril- liant idea. He knew that tigers are fond of valerian, so he gave orders that all the trees should be rubbed with this stuff. The tigers came up and caressingly scratched the bark in the most approved herringbone fash ion, after which all that the coolies had to do was to walk around once a day and collect the rubber.

AN OLD TIMER.
Has Had Experiences.

4 woman who has used Postum market 8 years ago knows from ex- perience the necessity of using Pos tum in place of coffee if one values health and steady brain.
 She says: At the time Postum was first put on the market I was suffer ing from nervous dyspepsia and my physician had repeatedly told me not to use tea or coffee. Finally I de- cided to take his advice and try Postum, and got sample and had it carefully prepared, finding it deli cious to the taste So I continued its use and very soon it's beneficial ef- fleets convinced me of it's value, for l got well of my nervousness and dys. pepsia
 My husband had been drinking cof- fee all his life until it had affected his nerves terribly. I persuaded him to shift to Postum and it was easy to get him to make the change for the Postum is delicious. It certainly worked wonders for him.
 We soon learned that Postum does not exhilarate or depress and does not stimulate, but steadily and honestly strengthens the nerves and the stom. ach. To make long story short our entire family have now used Postum for eight years with completely sat isfying results, as shown in our fine condition of health and we have no. siced rather unexpected improve. ment in brain and nerve power" Name given by Postum Co.,, Battle craRk, Mich.
 Increased brain and nerve power al ways follow the use of Postum in place of coffee, sometimes in very marked manner.

All women work; some in their homes, some in church, and some in the whirl of society. And in stores, mills and shops tens of thousands are on the never-ceasing treadmill, earning their daily bread
 All are subject to the same physical laws; all suffer alike from the same physical disturbance, and the nature of their duties, in many cases, quickly drifts them into the horrors of all kinds of female complaints, tumors, alteration, falling and displace- ments or perhaps irregularity or suppression, causing backache, ner- vousness, irritability and lassitude.
 They especially require an invigorat- ing, sustaining medicine which will strengthen the female organism and enable them to bear easily the fatigues of the day. to sleep well at night, and to rise refreshed and cheerful.
 How distressing to see a woman struggling to earn livelihood or per form her household duties when her back and head are aching, she is so tired she can hardly drag about or stand up, and every movement causes pain, the origin of which is due to some Arrangement of the female or ganism.
 Miss F. Orser, of 14 Warrenton Street. Boston, tells women how to avoid such suffering she writes:

I could not sleep and could hardly drag around. l consulted two physicians without relief, and as a last resort, 1 tried Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound, and to my surprise, every ache and pain left me. I gained ten pounds and am in perfect health."

TRY PARK POLICEMAN
FOR SHOOTING YOUTH
VICTIM INTERFEREs WHEN OF.
FIcER sPANKs BOY
Lads nfesting EastIake Have Given
Police Much Trouble and Defend
ant Says He Fired Merely to Scare
Fugitive

On a charge of assault with a deadly
weapon upon Millard Becktel, youth,
Special Policeman M. A. Major of East
lake park was bound over to the su-
perior court by Judge Rose at the pre-
liminary examination yesterday after
noon. Bail was fixed at $500, which
was produced Immediately.
The shooting of Becktel occurred at
Eastlake park on the afternoon of July
Is. Major admits firing into the ground,
but said he did so only to frighten the
boy, as he had made his escape from
the policeman.
The bullet from Majors revolver en-
tered Becktel's left foot. Becktel was
Immediately removed to the county
hospital.
Becktel says he interfered with
Patrolman Major because the latter
was spanking a small boy. When he
tried to stop the afficer the latter at
was just about to handcuff Beckte
when the lad escaped and started to
run down the pathway. 1t was then
that Major fired.
Major maintains that Becktel is a
member of a gang of boys that infest
Eastlake park and with whom he has
had great deal of trouble. On the day
of the shooting Major discovered Jose
Papinda, a small Mexican boy, fishing
in the park lake and proceeded to
punish him with a spanking. 1t was
then that Becktel interfered.
About thirty witnesses were called in
the case, but few of them were exam
ined yesterday.
