CURE FOR SNAKE BITE.
How Ranchman Treated q
Wound When Far From a
Settlement.
Los Angeles Times.

Los Angeles Times
Bitten by a rattlesnake in the
calf OF the right leg in the Santa
Ana mountains last Saturday,
John Mccormick, a rancher of
Grapeland, saved his life by
making an incision with his pock-
let knife and inserting piece
Of the reptiles flesh in the wound.
He bandaged it tightly and walk
ed seven hours before he reached
medical treatment. DIR. Sum
mer J. Quint was called from
Los Angeles to attend Cornick.
When he arrived he found that
his patient was suffering from
a slight poisoning. He declares
that Mccormick saved his life by
by his own treatment.
Mccormick was hunting
through scrub oak when he felt
a peculiar sting in his leg. He
looked down and saw the snake
dragging on the ground as he
walked. His fangs had become
fastened in his leggins and it
was unable to withdraw them.
With the butt of his gun Nc
Cornick knocked the snake off
and then crused it's head with his
shoe heel, AS quickly as possible
he ran into the open and carried
the snake with him. When he
barred his leg he squeezed all the
blood he could out of the two
punctures which the fangs had
made. Then he opened cash,
cutting through the two wounds
and letting out the blood and
poison. He cut a piece of flesh
out of the snakes back and in
serted it in the wound. McCor-
nick used his handkerchief for
for bandages and then tied his
leg again just above the knee to
stop the poison from working
through his system.
Mccormick was miles from anv
settlement where he could secure
medical attention, so he started
back to Grapeland. His leg pull
stated with pain and he soon be-
came deathly sick. In his weak
ened condition he was compelled
to rest on the road time and
again. When he finally reached
nome he was almost exhausted
and his leg was dreadfully swol-
len and almost black.
Mccormick says that his treat
ment was famous among the
Indians for snake bites and he
has known of a number of in
stances where its application has
saved lives.

Facts That Are Bold and Bare

r@lrorother Everything.
All along the line the facts are
bold and bare. The guarantees
OF deposits is the one important
feature of the Democratic plat
form. If the people understand
1t, and understand that the bank
ers alone are opposing it and
Judge Taft insists that it is
socialism to protect the man who
hands you his money-Bryan
will be elected alone onthat plank,
In a word the humble citizen has
a right to be protected, and no
9ank should have a right to make
Uncle Sam a preferred creditor
over him. And this is the Juice
and the essence of the whole
thing, and the further Judge
Taft goes in declaring this Social
lstic the further he will get from

what a comfort and relief it is to

while ironing. 1t can be made from

Is to tired feet.

usual. Aftcrward wash the wood with
plenty Of clean water. Wood thus
treated can be kept spotlessly clean.
In making mustard. it is good
plan to add pinch of salt before
mixing in the water. A spoonful of
vinegar should always be used to
moisten the dry mustard in the first
instance, while better result can be
attained by stirring in warm water
instead of cold when the mustard is
not required in haste.
