A ReaourcefuI Rentile.

An example of rare animal intelli.
gence was related by the French ,ex.
plorer G. Mingaud. This noted sci
enlist had caught water adder, which
he placed in a wire cage. The snake
began at once to try to effect an es.
cape between the wire bars, but got
no farther than her head and neck,
which protruded through the inter-
stices. At last the reptile, weary of its
futile efforts, lay down on the bottom
Of the cage, and Mingaud observed il
go into apparently useless commissions.
But the snake knew what it wanted.
Not more than a minute had passed
before 1t gave up it's breakfast of the
morning in the form Of a lizard about
four inches long. A moment later the
adder was again at the bars of the
cage and this time had no difficulty In
crawling through.

TYPEWRITERs' MISTAKES.
Some B1unders That Make the Em-

ployer,s Life a Burden.
In some stenographic systems an ar
bitrary sign may stand for one, two or
even three words. Sometimes the mis-
translation of one of these signs leads
to funny results.
1.-THE deed shocked the nation to the
heart core" was what was said, and
the typewriter evolved 1.-THE dead
shocked the notion to the hard car"
THE rumor was but transient, though"
was hardly recognizable as 1.-The ram

end collision was evidently in that
girls mind.
"As mamma fed the Jews" was In
geniously tortured by another young
woman into las mamma fed the jays"
Yet she was a Sunday school teacher.
"Plays, creeps and laughs the inno-
cent" crooned the man one day, mouth
baby verses. When the typewriter tap
ped out plays craps and leaves the in

He said, 1.-THE voice of DIR. Jocelyn
was heard calling for assistance" and
it came out 'The vice of DR.. Josh Lane
was hard killing four assistants"

tated and it came out "But she held
Jacks, two, drawing for that, and so
passed one," would it have been I'M
just to credit the girl at the machine
with an elementary knowledge of gam
bling?
Occasionally new beast or bird is
discovered by the typewriter, thus,
'"The sea quail was" ETC., the intention
being 1.-The sequel was" etc. This was
in line with blunder made by the
same girl, who had avowed that "a
gull sunk the schooner" instead of "a
gale" On another occasion she de-
clared that a pair of lovers "hatched
up pretty squirrel instead Of their
having patched up petty quarrel"
Having confessed that once upon
time she had been a waitress in pop
ular restaurant, the reason is clear
why 'Foist the males of the dynasty"
was clicked out, "First, the meals Of
the dinnersty." This sounds like a
made up" but it is fearful fact.

Most Tedious Reading.

The proofreader took off his glasses,
wiped his tired eyes and put his hat
on. "Ill go out and take walk" he
said. Il have been working two hours
on these time tables, and that is all my
nerves will stand. No work is harder.
more tedious or more wearing than this
time table proofreading. So much, you
see, depends upon accuracy. If in the
proofreading of book an error or two
are made, laugh or frown is the only
consequence, but an error in time
table may mean disaster. Sometimes
we go over time table seventy and
eighty times before we finally o. X. It.
We get to know the time table by

graphs. How wearing the work Is! In

SUSPENSION BRIDGES.
Used by Man Hundreds of Years Ago
For Crossing Streams.

Used by Man Hundreds of Years Ago
For Crossing Streams.
The towline is doubtless the earliest,
as it is still the simplest, application Of
q rope for the removal of material.
Hitched to a floating log, the genesis
of all water craft, canoe or sledge, it
was used before history learned the
art of writing or mankind the art Of
reading.
The towline was combined with the
suspension cable as a means Of cross
ing streams i'll the mountains of Hin
dustan at very remote period. The
suspension cable, often several hun
ilred feet in length, was made of twist
ed fibers or slender stalks of climbing
vines. This was solidly secured to
large trees or MASSES of rocks on the
banks of the chasms to be crossed. On
this cable a wooden block, grooved I'M
derneath, was placed, suspended from
which was a small rude platform or at
times simple loop of rope for the
passenger or baggage. The wooden
block, with it's attached load, was pull
ed across the chasm in either direction
by towline attached to the block.
This rude contrivance is the genesis Of
the most refined aerial ropeways Of the
present day and of the suspension
bridge also. which is, of crude form,
of very great antiquity.
When the Spaniards first visited Pc
ru they found suspension bridges which
could be traversed by men and bur-
dened animals. Some of these bridges
were of over 200 feet span and were
formed of half dozen cables of twist
ed osiers stretched from bank to bank
and passed over wooden supports.
These cables were bound together by
smaller ropes and were covered with
a layer of bamboo, which formed a
support for the roadway.

DRUNKENNESS AND CRIME.
The Defense of Nfurderers Intoxicat-
ed When Deed Is Committed.

The Defense of Murderers IntOxicat-
ed When Deed Is Committed.
Drunkenness as defense for MUIR
der can be reduced to the plain state
ment that drunken man bent on COM
mission of crime is as dangerous to the
Individual against whom his efforts
are directed as is the man who is so
Der.
The argument that murder or any
other breach of the law should be con,
doned because the accused admits he
had been drinking to excess for con-
siderable time before the crime was
committed may appear reasonable, but
Is it? Manifestly the man was in pos
session of his faculties before he began
drinking, and If he continued the de-
bauch until such time as he believed
he had some right to take the life of
another there can be little excuse for
his act.
But it is not so much in the decision
of one case that the danger lies. If the
courts are to take as argument for &C.
quittal the word of man charged
with felony that he is irresponsible be-
cause it was committed while he was
drunk, the possibilities are dangerous.
What is to prevent every deliberate
murderer from hiding behind this de-
Tense, as so many of them have hidden
behind the ruling Of court that there
is emotional insanity? Is it not pos
sible, If one man is acquitted of crime,
or his sentence is made nothing more
than few years confinement, because
the crime was an act done while he
was under the influence Of liquor, that
it will serve to increase the number Of
felonies of that Pittsburg

ERYSlPELAS.
Treatment That Is Said to BE Speedy
and Effective.


and Elective.
A medical authority says: / would
like to state that consider that one
may get absolute control over erysip-
elias generally within three days by
a very simple treatment. OF 100
cases Of ordinary facial erysipelas
treated should not expect more than
three that would not yield within three
days, very likely within forty-eight
hours, with the simplest antiseptic
treatment.
My custom is always to treat cases
Of that sort by the application during
alternate hours Of the day and evening
of mild solution of carbolic acid in al
cohol and water as an evaporating To-
ton 1t is only in very exceptional
cases that the disease is not almost
completely under control and has dis
appeared within forty-eight hours, but
after three days it would be extraordi-
nary If by this means every vestige of
the disease has not disappeared.
This has been my treatment in cry
sipelas for many years. have never
known it to fail. have never given a
drop of medicine internally. feel that
I have absolute control over the dis
ease. am speaking now Of ordinary
erysipelas, not the deep seated phleg-
monous erysipelas, Of course The
strength Of the solution used is as fol-
lows: Crystal carbolic acid, one-half
dram; alcohol, four ounces; water, four
ounces.-Health.

A mantrap has been found in Afford,
Lincolnshire, England, which shows the
barbarity of a century or SO ago. 1t
is probably the largest mantrap in ex-

length, and it's jaws, with teeth pro-
truding two inches, will open fully two
feet two inches by eighteen inches.
Old time landlords who chose to insist
upon their rights In their entirety, as
they often did, were at liberty to plant
these barbarous engines about In the
underground Of their inclosed land for
the benefit Of any trespasser or possible
poacher who might chance to set foot
near them. Their use was abolished by
law In 1927.
