The recent death of Miss Julia Bry-

Bryant, has called forth number of
"reminiscences of the poet and his fam

was not man Of winning personality.
He was too dignlfled. But at home
he could unbend with his children and
their intimate friends he could occa-

How tho Swimmer FIoata.

To float go out into the water as far
as your waist, says Country Life In
America. Throw yourself on your back
facing the shore. Hold your chin UP as
high ms possible. This will submerge
your ears, but don't let this strange
sensation worry you. If the water
closes over your head simply close
your mouth and remain still and
straight; you will go under for a sec
ond only.
Now throw your arms out wide be-
hind your back and throw out your
chest. Hold your chin high. Inhale
through the mouth. Exhale through
the nose. You are now In the ideal
floating attitude. Never lift your head
Keep straight and still, chest up, toes
showing, chin high and ears submerged.
Try TO float as long as possible, because
this exercise forms the basis, not only
for swimming on the back and for life
saving, but also for sustaining yourself
quietly In the water for hours A
thlrty-mlnute float is a very respectable
performance.

The Saber TOothed Tiger Was q
Formidable Creature.
The most remarkable of all the ex.
unct feline animals are those known
to naturallsts as the saber toothed cats
or tigers, a group comprising the
greater part of all the fossil forms
They date back to the earliest times of
which we know anything about the
FAMILY In North America and reach
down to the time Of man himself. A
large and powerful species described
from the Indian Territory by Cope
lived contemporaenously with the hairy
mammoth, as evidenced by the com.
minglins Of their skeletons There can
be little or no question but that the
hairy mammoth was contemporaneous
with man in North America as well
as In Europe. Its geological range Is
from the close of the eocene to the LAT.
ter part of the peistocene.
The chief popularity Of the animal
Is the extraordinary elongated canine
teeth, The tail is of unusual length
and the legs are short The animal
measures about seven feet In length
aside from the tail. The lower laws
have a downward projection In front
due to tangelike widening Of the
JaWbones. which doubtless served Ms n
protection to the teeth. preventing their
injury or loss. In some Of the larger
forms from South America this fanps
was not present, while the canine
teeth were even more elongated than

SNAKES AT $50 A FOOT.

Big Ones Consequently Come High
Some Snakes sold by the Pound.
Snakes" said a dealer in wild AMI.
mails and reptiles, increase In value
out OF all proportion to their size. SO
while you could buy seven-foot py-
thon for SIP, you couldn't begin to buy
one Of twice that length for twice that
price. A fourteen-foot python would
be worth $50. And python twenty
Eve feet In length would cost $500.
Some sorts Of smaller snakes are
regularly sold by the pound, and we
sometimes buy big snakes in that way
OF sailors that bring them in on ships
coming from snake countries. We
weigh the big snake in n bag and pay
so much pound for 1t.
But big snakes are not sold in that
way by dealers, nor are they sold by
the foot, though. Of course, the length
governs the snakes value. But of two
snakes Of the same length one might
be worth more money than the other,
For snakes vary in their physical char
acterlstics just as human beings do,
and their prices vary accordingly.
"Of two big snakes of the same
length and the same thickness one
might weigh fifty pounds more than
the other. And then Of two big snakes
OF the same length one might be thin
and spare Of body, while the other was
thicker and bulkier, and as between
these two, other things being equal, the
bulkter snake would he worth the more,
because 1t would make the more strik-
ing and imposing show.
Thus while the length does gov
ern, 1t Is not the only thing to be taken
into account, and SO big snakes are
sold neither by the pound nor by the
foot, but at prices fixed on each indl-
yidua snake.
big snakes and little ones are sold
to geological parks and to show people
all over the country. For the very
largest snakes the demand IS greater
than the supply"

THE HOMESTEAD.

Girt all about with fence of white
The low-roofed cottage stands
There, stretching far, are banks Of green
And yon are fallow lands.
Skyward at eve the swift bird wings
Along Its meted way;
There, stars of love look down by night,
A sun of love by day.
Unchanged the wild and singing woods;
The glad brook dances still
And echoes as of yore ring out
The music of the hill.
And where we played the violet grows;
The trout leaps in the stream;
And just as fair as long ago

All things in earth, and sky, and breeze
To olden days are true;
D playtime maiden, naught has changed
Or passed away, but you!
