NO SNAKES IN CANADA.
The Great Forests Are SingularIy
Free from Reptiles.

A curious thing about Canadian for
ests is that there are no snakes, and
even from description the Indian
guides did not seem to understand
what snake would be like.
Fishing all through Canada is as
good as the hunting, and should one
fail to bag a moose he is fully recon-
pensed for the trip by the abundance
of other game, including bear and
deer. There is a weird melancholy
about Canadian forests, with their
hundreds of small lakes and rivers
scattered here and there, and although
the scenery never rises to the magnifi-
cent, there is something haunting,
aside from the sport in it, that draws
the hunter back season after season.
Canada is filled with legends and
strange superstitions most of them of
Indian origin, and all of them interest
ing to degree, especially when re-
lated by one of the Indian guides who
can be induced to talk.-Leslie's

NEW IDEA OF CONSUMPTION.
Doctor Says Disease Is Primarily De
rived from Cattle.

A London physician, DR.. W. Picket
Turner, who has made first-hand
study of the disease for many years,
advances the theory that the medical
world is attacking the problem of con-
sumption by an utterly false route.
His view, briefly stated, is that tu-
berculosis is an animal disease pri-
marily derived, in all cases, from cat
tie. 1t belongs, he says, to the my
cotic group of diseases, diseases in
which the original source of infection
is a plant Bovine cattle derive tuber-
culosis from timothy and other allied
grasses by natural affinity.
Man acquires the disease by inges-
ton or incubation, never by inhala-
ton 1t is not hereditary; neither is
there any predisposition to it in the
individual. The bacillus in state Of
nature is saprophyte, feeding on decay
of the vegetable world. But the ba-
cillus becomes pathogenic-capable of
causing disease-in cattle when they
are deprived of actinism or the prop
erty of the chemical rays in sunlight.
1t would, If all this be true, become
reasonable to assume that by restor-
ing actinism to cattle the bacillus
would again become saprophyte, in
which case consumption would be ex-
tirpated.

Lonuinn for country Lie.

A strange thing is the universal
longing of professional men and others
who have come to the city and have
prospered as they advance in life to-
get back to the country 1t is seldom
that they do return, and when they
do there is often disappointment and
things do not appear as they did long
ago. The change is in the man him
self, but he thinks it is in the country.
Nevertheless, the desire to get back
to the old country place to end ones
days is very general. Sir Walter Scott
refers to it and compares the course
of man through the world to that Of
the hare which is started from her
lair and after long chase and max
ing large circle ends by returning
to the nest from which she started.

Take care of the stomach and the
heal b will take care of itself. II peo-
pie only realized the soundness of that
statement the majority might live to a
good old age like Moses, "the eye un-
dimmed, the natural force unabated."
1t is in the stomach that the blood is
made. 1t is from the stomach that
nourishment is dispensed to nerve and
muscle. If the stomach is I" weak" it
can't do its whole work for each part
of the body. If it is diseased the dis
ease will faint the nourlshment which
is distributed, and 80 spread disease
throughout the. body. 1t WAS the
realization of the Importance of the
stomach as the very center of health
and the common source of disease,
which led DIR. Pierce to prepare his
"Golden Medical Discovery" Disease
which originate in the stomach must
be cured through the stomach" The
soundness of this theory is proved
every day by cures of diseased organs,
heart, liver, lungs, blood, by the use
of the Discovery" which is solely
and singly a medicine for the blood and
! organs of digestion and nutrition.

AIl Pieces Rut the Pawn.

The archbishop of Canterbury, on
one occasion, when addressing the
members of chess club, said that
though he was not a distinguished
chess player, he could claim to be a
representative of chess in an unusual
degree, for he had seen good deal
of kings and queens, had lived in two
castles and was the only living man
who was both knight and bishop,
so that he represented all the pieces

LAST YEARS COUNTY EXPENSES

For general county purposes last
year tae sum Of $36, 1895 was expend-
ed. These figures are considerably
less than those of the previous year
1905, the sum for that year being $40,
498. 5O-a difference of $6,32S.65. This
difference is largely accounted for by
the fact tuat the public roads in 1905
cost the county 1923, 1918. 80. while in 1906
the cost ives SIS, $780, 6-$5, 559.54 less
than for the previous year.
The figures given above do not in
clude amount paid for public school
maintenance, but were for other ex-
penses for the term of l9O4-5. Outside
the town of Okolona, the public
schools cost the county 21e,946.57, For
1866 the cost was $21, 1922 an in
crease of 81, 1920, made necessary by
the increase in number of school build
ng and pupils and also an increase often
per cent in the salaries of white teach
ers. This raise in salary was made
imperative in order to secure teachers
of competence and has resulted in ben
eft to the county. The present super
intendent has succeeded in getting the
best class OF teachers to be secured for
the money. For the school year 1905
thirteen new school houses were
erected in county school districts, one
of them costing $500.
! Altogether the sums expended for
schools and general purposes are small
considering the size and population Of
the county. Houston Post.

The origin Of this name for the ma
tives of South Africa is peculiar. 1t is
said that the early Dutch soldiers at
the Cape Of Good Hope particularly
noticed the click that forms so dis
tinct feature of the Kafir language,
which sounded to them like continu-
Gus repetition of the syIlables hot"
and 'tot." They therefore called the
natives Hottentots, the zen" meaning
"and" in the Dutch language.
