RATTLESNAKE'S TEETH.

If You Do, Handle 1t With
Care.
Washington Spcial to New York Sun.
The zoo keeper carefully un-
folded a small paper packet
which looked as if it might con-
tain headache powder.
Want a rattlesnake's ?"
he inquired.
'"Tooth?"
well, call it a fang, if you
want to; but amt there some
thing in the Good Book about
sharper than a serpent's tooth?'
Look at this one and you think
that the old fellow that wrote
that must have known what he
was talking about
He opened the paper and show
ed what seemed like a miniature
horn. 1t was shaped like a cow
horn, which has only one curve.
1t was yellowish white, like a
discolored tooth.
1t was about three-quarters of
an inch long and a sixteeth of an
inch in diameter at the base,
where it seemed as if it had been
broken off. The point was as
sharp as a needle. An eight of
an inch back of the point, on the
outer curve Of the tooth, was an
opening, the end of a sort of tube
which ran the whole length of
the tooth.
This little channel through the
tooth seemed to be full of a dried
substance, which the zoo keeper
evidently regarded with proper
suspicion, for he warned the re-
cipient of the tooth to handle the
same with care. He did not
think that one would get a true
case of snake bite from one Of
: them more than once.
According to him the keep
, ers at the zoo often pick VI
} these loose teeth in the
snake cages. They are appar
emily shed in the course of natur
al changes, something as th'
serpent sheds his skin. The!
: are not merely the snakes bab!
= teeth, for he sheds these discard
ed teeth, but if the skin shoulC

The Remedy That Does.

"Dr. Kings New Discovery is

others promise but fail to per-
form, " says Mrs. E. R. Pierson,
Of Auburn Centre, Pa 'It is cur
ing me of throat and lung trouble
of long standing, that other treat
ments relieved only temporarily,
New Discovery is doing me SO
much good that I feel confident its
continued use for a reasonable
length of time will restore me to
perfect health.'' This renowned

highest position in the world and
it's occupant is an important
factor in all national matters. If
he is a devout believer in our
of government, recognizes
the constitutional distribution of
powers, trusts thoroughly in the
people and fully sympathizes
with them in their aspirations
and hopes, he has an opportunity
to do a splendid work he occupies
a vantage ground from which he
can exert a wholesome influence
in favor of each forward move
ment.
'The responsibilities of the
office are so great that the occu-
pant ought to be relieved of
every personal ambition, save
the ambition to prove worthy of
the confidence of his countrymen;
for this reason he ought to enter
the position without thought or
prospect of a second term. While
the burdens of such an Office are
heavy, and while the labors OF
the office are exacting and ex'
hausting, the field of service is
large and, measuring it's great
ness by service, a President, by
consecrating himself to the pub
lie veal, can make himself secure
in the affection of his fellow
citizens while he lives and create
for himself a permanent place ir
the nations history"

The readers of this paper will be
pleased to learn that there is at least
one dreaded disease that science has
been able to cure in all it's stages, and
that is Catarrh. Halls Catarrh Cure is
the only positive cure now known to the
medical fraternity, Catarrh being con-
stitutional disease, requires constitu-
tional treatment. Halls Catarrh Cure
is taken internally, acting directly upon
the blood and mucous surfaces of the
system, thereby destroying the founda-
ton of the disease, and giving the pa
tient strength by building up the con
stitution and assisting nature in doing
it's work. The proprietors have so much
faith in it's curative powers that they
offer One Hundred Dollars for any case
that it fails to cure. Send for list OF
testimonials. Address
