THE DOG DAYS.
In the Course of Time Sirius May
Rise In Midwinter.

In the Course of Time Sirius May
Rise In Mid,inter.
Dog days begin, according to the ira
ditions Of boyhood i'll certain parts Of
the United States, when the green
scum, algae, begins to appear on the
surface of the lakes and rivers. Then
it is supposed to be unsafe to go in
cording to the tradition of many adults
as we'll as of boys. dogs most frequent
ly go mad. All nations and races of
civilization apparently have had pc
riod during the summer known as dog
days when many maladies were sup
posed to be common. But the madness
OF dogs, hydrophobia, was never associ-
ated with dog days by the ancients.
Dog days are rather indefinite pc
Rod, according to this green scum rule.
but there is disagreement of authori-
ties as to when dog days really do be-
gin and end. According to the diction-
airy, dog days are part of the year
about the time of the heliacal rising of
the dog star, Sirius"-that is, when the
dog star rises in conjunction with the
sun or as nearly in conjunction as may
be observed. Various dates from July
3 to Aug. 10 have been assigned for
the beginning of dog days, and they
thirty to fifty days.
1t seems to have been from the helia-
cal rising of Sirius that the ancients
most commonly reckoned the dog days.
Thus at the present time dog days
would begin July 3 and will end Aug
IL. Sirius is the brightest star in the
heavens, and it was easy to associate
the mutual heat of the brightest star
and of the sun with the hottest and
most unkindly period Of the year Hip
pocrates $50 B. CO declared the dog
days to be the most unhealthy part of
the summer.
Dog days are continually dropping
farther back in the calendar. Now
they are twelve days behind the sched-
ule to which they held in, the period Of
the pharaohs. In time Sirius may rise
in the dead of winter. The Egyptians
maintained that the first Indication Of
the rise of the Nile took place on the
morning of the longest day, when, as
they said, the sun and Sothis (Sirius)
rose together. They attributed the rise
OF the river entirely to the great heat
generated by this star in conjunction
with the sun.
Sirius is situated in the mouth of the
constellation CAMS Major (the great

tians and Etilopians. Twas computed

The Pythops Are Enormous and reed
On Pigs and Children.
4 In the Sarawak Gazette is an article
on the snakes of that part of Borneo
or the poisonous reptiles it says: The
cobra (Naja tripudians) is a black
snake which raises its head to strike
when lrritated. at the same time ex-
panding the hood at either side Of the
neck. 1t splits at intruders and Kisses
like a cat, whence it is known as
"uiar tedong puss;" In some parts, too,
as .tedong mata hari" The word "te-
dong IN Sarawak is apparently APP
piled to all large snakes which Malays
consider to be poisonous. and, as our
Malays are but Ill acquainted with
these animals, quite a number OF large
but harmless forms are designated by
this term. The hamadryad (Naja bun
yarus) is a brown snake considerably
bigger but rarer than the cobra. 1t is
rather shy. but when cornered, like
the cobra, it raises it's head and ex
pands the hood before striking Its
food is chiefly other snakes.
LESS dangerous than these najas
are the vipers. of which the most
common species is the green viper,
which reaches a length Of two feet or
more. The head Is large and shaped
like an ace of spades. This creature is
tree snake and very sluggish. The
'brngarrs' are Of several species, one,
Bungarus fasciatus, of length up to
four feet being black with yellow
rings. 1t Is called the 'ular buku tebu'
sugar cane joints by natives. There
are also sea snakes of many species.
