BARBED WIRE.

A Lucky Device That Brought Millions
to It's Inventors
1.-THE luckiest invention In history, r
said a patent official. was that Of
barbed wire. It came about by acci-
dent. me- RI
Isaac L. Ellwood was the inventor
OF barbed wire. IN his youth he lived
In De Kalb, ILL.,, and, having d neighbor
whose pigs trespassed on his garden,
he put up one day a wire fence of his
own make. This fence had barbs and
points on it. It was queer and ugly,
but it kept out the pigs.
ut was real barbed wire fence,
the first In the world, and there were
millions Of money In 1t, but young Ell
wood and his friends laughed at its
freak appearance. 4
One day two strangers saw this
fence, perceived how well 1t kept out
the pigs, realized how. cheap 1t was
realized, in a word, Its value and or
dered several tons Of It from EIlwood.
Furthermore. they contracted to sell
for a term Of years all the barbed wire
he could produce.
"Ellwood borrowed 81, 600 and set up
a little factory. A few years later on
he had paid back that loan and was
worth small matter OF $4,000, 900
besides. New York Press.

How Snake Poison Kills.

4 The action OF poisons upon the sys-
tenn Is and always has been one Of the
most interesting of subjects. Just how
and why it kills have been determined
through a series of experiments made
by scientists. The following descrip-
ton Is one Of the best and most lucid
OF any that has been given to the pub-
lie: The venom may be roughly sepa-
rated into two parts, one acting upon
the blood and the other upon the
nerves. When injected it immed iately
begins to create terrible destruction
In the blood vessels, The wallis OF the
veins are eaten away, and an internal
hemorrhage takes place. While this
10 going on a portion Of the venom Is
attacking the nerves. Particularly
susceptible to its ravages is the Vase
motor system, nerve center which
controls the muscles OF respiration.
Paralysis takes place In these organs,
and the victim generally dies from an
Inability to breathe. Exchange.
