WHIsKEY AND SNAKE BITES

Possibly the wide spread of the prohi-
bition movement may cause the fol
lowing news dispatch from Philadelph-
ia to be read with keener interest,"
that though it had come forth a few
years ago:
Science, which likes nothing better
than to destroy our most cherished il
lusions, has been taking cold blooded
look at the rattlesnake, and it is now
stated that whiskey ism t any good for
rattlesnake bites; the buttons do not
correspond with the snakes age, and
the noise of the rattle is not warning
but an invitation. A rattler whose
fangs have been drawn is not neccs-
sarily harmless; the eye, which hypno-
tizes the bird, is pure invention. Fl
nally, there is no known antidote for
the rattlers' bite, alothugh the venom
is seldom strong enough to kill an
adult

spirits consumed in the supposed saw
ing of lives in this country in the past
would suffice to float good-sized ma
w. Many a man has managed to get
all he desired in the way of stimulant
by fadtering into the crossroads store
and exhibiting a bramble puncture in
his hand "Snake-bite' has come to
be a well established reason for lower
ing the bars of total abstinence in the
scrupulously temperance regions. And
now this long reliel-upon cure is pro.
nounced worthless, a mere simulant Of
false courage, to solace the victim rs
the system is doing its own work of re
sisting and absorbing the poison. Oh
viously there will be marked falling
off in the number of snake bites in the
parts where the latest declaration of

from that of the country village. For

from that of the country village. For
there is germ of truth in the proverb
quoted by Mr.. Spiliman that "God
made man, man made the cities, and
the Devil made the country village
The country village seems to supply
opportunities for idleness without the
compensating stimulus to effort which
under some circumstances is found in
the activity of city life.
1t is important to bear this distinc
tion in mind, for idleness is the root Of
all evil in boys life, and hence one
of the most potent factors in the de-
velopment of u boys character on the
farm is the fact that in nearly all cases
he is compelled to perform Light tasks
through the performance of which he
acquires habit of industry which will
cling to him through all his later years.
Vigorous physical health acquired in
out t-door life, habits of industry and a
strong foundation of moral principle
are the equipment of boys, who, COM
ing in the early years of manhood from
the farm, win victory after victory
from competitors born and reared in
cities We're there no truth in this the
stat istics would not show so large a
percentage of the leaders in the cont
mercial, political and professional life
of the United States were born and
reared in the wholesome atmosphere
of the country. The ration needs the
farms, because of the strong, capable
men who come from them, as well as
on account of the food supplies pro.
duced on the soil.

CoUNTRY-BRED BOYS

The tLudent of statistics is forced to
the conclusion that the farm is the
place to rear boy if his parents would
have him develop his natural abilities
and impulses in normal way, while in
the midst of an environment which
builds up and strengthens his character
for the hard work of later years.
Writing in "Science" for May &,
Mr.. W. j. Spillman states that of the
Presidents of the United States only
two were city bred, and that of the
present membership of the senate OF
the United States, 7O.5 per cent. were
country bred.
In fact, while considerably less than
fifty per cent. of the population is &C.
tually living on farms, the farm popu.
lation furnishes 70 per cent of the
leaders in every phase of activity in
this country.

THE CITY COUNCIL will


other meeting next Monday evening,
and a committee appointed by the
board of trade will ask the city to do
nate toward the advertising fund for
the coming sea on. The city donated
quite literally last year, and the Post
believes it was spent in way to
bring good and lasting results TO the
city. Under the old system of So
Letting the funds, some people, who
derive benefit from the tourist trade,
were not found in the list of contribut.
ors, but by taking the money from the
city taxes, everyone pays his or her
share, and the burden is thus made
lighter on the few. who in the past
have carried the burden alone. 1t Is
thus to be hoped that the city council
will see its way clear to assist the
board of trade in its work of adver-
tising Glenwood in the eastern states.

THE SINGLE RAIL

The much-talked- of monorail road is
about to receive a practical test near
New York. A seation of line which
has hitherto been occupied by a pre-
historic horse car device is being fit
ted out with new type of the single
rail car. In this type the famous gy-
roscope is not used. The weight of
the car is carried on four double
flanged wheels placed tandem on the
single rail beneath; while the lateral
strains will be caught by two guide
rails above. The guide rails also
transmit the electricity which runs the
train.
The experiment will be watched with
interest by all, but chiefly by railroad
men. If the monorail makes good, the
present system of rails and engines
and cars thereon will go to the scrap
heap, as fast as they can be replaced
The best engineers are agreed in hold
ing that the monorail, if it works at
all will save 80 per cent. of the first
cost of construction, and 25 per cent.
of maintenance charges. Also it will
make for safety and for speed. The
double track is never quite level, or
quite uniform, or quite fitted for the
terrific strains placed upon it by the
modern speed demands The monorail
will be quite equal to these demands
if it works at all. Personally, we see
no reason to doubt that it will work.
There are doubtless many practical
problems to be met and solved There
are many puzzling features to the new
system to be met and reduced to order
and we do not understand why, in this
first American effort, the gyroscope
has been discarded. But we have full
faith in the ability of modern engin-
GERS and inventors to work out the
problems and solve the difficulties.
The rewards arc so great, and the
general principle 50 clearly establish
ed that the practical results must fol-
low.-Denvee Nsws.

HoBoEs WERE THICK in this city

this week. A number of them visited
the residence d istricts and asked for
food. Some of them did not refuse
to work when ii was offered to them,
but one or two fellows seemed to fear
work more than they would a case of
small pox. This latter class is undc
serving of food at the hands of any
people and should be given places on
the streets for while. One fellow
in particular was told where he could
get u half hours work, but he did not
see fit to call at the house and ask for
the work. He struck quick gait up
Bennett avenue and seemed to see how
much distance he could put between
himself and that job of wood cutting,
Of course, there are men who deserve
help, and it should be given them, but
when deserving man comes along. You
will find him man enough to prove his
claims, and nine times out of ten he
will work even if he has but one arm
to work with.

CORNERS" CAUSE TROUBLE

The corner in wheat inevitably starts
an agitation TO make corners illegal.
The bakers of Pittsburg appeal to See
retary Knox. Members of congress are
being overwhelmed with ldtters ami
kilograms. and the dispatches represent
them as in n mood to take some action
if only the House were organized for
any other business than tariff making.
Probably it is better so. 1t will b.
wiser to wait and see if this corner
does not 90 the way of it's predeces-
sors
Mr.. Pm.ten, the Chicago speculator,
is either right or wrong in his esti-
mate that the supply of wheat is lower
than it was supposed to be. If he is
right, then the price of wheat will stay
up, but it will not be Mr.. Patten, buJ
actual scarcity, that has put 1T up and
kept it up. All that his movement will
have done will be to start the rise i'll
price, a little earlier than it would
otherwise have come, and so to equalizn
supply and demand over the period
for which present wheat must last. ii
he is wrong, then the price must come
down of itself again to lower point
than it would otherwise have reached
because of the extent to which he has
reduced consumption, by forcing the
price upward temporarily. Attempts
to forestall the supply of foodstuff
have always regulated themselves be
cause the task is too great for the re
sources of one man or one group OF
speculators-New York Tribune.
