POISONOUS SNAKES IN THE
UNITED STATES.

North America, says Allen Samuel
Williams in July Boys Life, the Boy
Scouts Magazine, has two kinds of
poisonous snakes, one of them the
Elapine or Coral Snake-related to
the Cobras of the old world--being
a negligible factor so far as the Grand
Army of American campers are con-
cerned because these reptiles are
found only in the Gulf States and Mex
leo, are small and uncommon. The
really dangerous serpents are the rat
tlesnakes of a dozen important spe-
cies, the Copperhead of the eastern
United States and the Water Mecca
sin of the States South of the Ohio
and the Potomac Rivers. These three
are of the Crotalus or Pit-viper family.
AS a large proportion of Americas
camping out is done in Pennsylvania,
New Jersey, New York and New Eng
land and eastern Canada, It may be
reassuring to know that east of the
Mississippi and north of the Ohio and
Potomac Rivers there are but two spe-
cies Of serpents capable Of INJECTING
injury upon or possibly killing hui
man being-the Copperhead Snake and
the Banded or Timber Rattlesnake,
unless account be taken Of the dwarf
Prairie Rattlesnake of the middle
west, now nearly extinct. More men

THE SPIRIT OF THE WORLD
TEXT OF ELOQUENT BISHOP H. c. MORRISON ~ IT.
MAIN STREET M E. CHURCH SUNDAY
i'm The world demands {

worship him. The world demands
compliance with its spirit
Telling of a young lady who was
receivine the attention of United
States Senator, declining to go 10
ball given in her honor, because sue
was a teacher of a class of girls IN
the Sunday school, and OF the senator
saying, eff there were more CHRISTIANS
like YOU, more men like me would De
christians" the Bishop commended tne
voune lady's conduct to the young
ladies present.
This thing isn't positively out
breaking, it is generally respectable
genteel, The world, the flesh and the
devil. The negative qualities repre-
sent the world. The flesh and the
devil are active agencies in working
out the world scheme of non-conforml-
ty to Gods commands"
The preacher condemned this new
idea that there is no such thing as
eternal punishment for the WICKED
He said the Bible taught that the
wicked and those that forget GOO
shall be turned into hell, and he shall
believe this until the Son of God
. comes back.
There is vast difference between
being transformed and reformed. The
clipping of the wings of sin or the
pulling out its claws leaves the same
cruel bird or ravenous beast. There
is TOGO much back-sliding when you
haven't far to slide.
when a man is born into the King
dom of God he is free indeed. This
puts him into a war-like attitude
Never a soldier of the cross until you
are born again.
ITO be transformed is to be in the
world and not of it."
The Bishop spoke in clear, strong
voice. He was closely followed and
in his closing remarks he urged his
hearers to follow the leadings of the
Spirit saying if God is only leading
whom shall we fear? He prayed that
they might be free from sin and have
large part in the redemption of the
world.

were present, there being six of them

An audience that more than filed
the large auditorium of Main Street
Methodist church, assembled Sunday
morning to hear Bishop H. G. Morrison,
who preached on the subject THE
Spirit of the World" using as his text
the 29th verse of the 18th chapter OF
Romans: BE not conformed to this
world, but be We transformed by the
renewing of your minds that we may
prove what is that good, perfect and
acceptable will of God"
The bishop said in part What is
the 'world?' 1t is not personal, it is
not material. 1t has no geographical
location. 1t is all these combined.
Faber says 1t is a name given to a
certain system of maxims, modes and
customs that relate to human society,"
1t isn't satan, it isn't exactly sin. 1t
is impersonal and yet very recogniz-
able. It's chief quality is an absence
of God, an atmosphere without God.
The world-difficult to define. You
can't draw a line and say certainly
where the church leaves off and the
world begins. Can't bind an atmos-
phere, it is too pervasive. You can
draw line between sin and righteous
ness, but the world isn't sin. 1t is an
element. Just as a fish cannot live
outside its native element, sin cannot
exist where the spirit of God is. 1t
may be poor, it may be ignorant, but
it doesn't discredit itself by coarse
ness. 1t is sometimes pathetic to see
poor or ignorant man or woman try
ing to meet the demands of this task
master. Like galvanized metal it gilt
tiers while it covers the coarseness OF
sin. Some men never get their re.
ligion into their business. A man
whose religion doesn't get into his bus
mess has religion that will not get
into his character. If man has re-
ligion, religion has him. Away with
the idea that religion and business are
separate.
This thing called the world lie
ubiquitous. 1t is at the wedding, at
the funeral, at the bedside of the sick
1t determines the length of the funeral
procession and invades the tombs.

Spirit can drive out the spirit of the

To Improve Dairy Cows.

Speaking on Fundamental Interests
in Country Life" to the ministers and
church workers attending the SUMMER
school of religion at Madison, DR.. A. S.
Alexander of the College of Agricul-
ture of the University of Wisconsin,, on
July II, 1912, offered new and prac-
teal suggestion which deserves the i'm
mediate and earnest consideration of
all who are interested in the welfare of
country communities.
cit is alleged" said he, that more
than 80 per cent of the bulls in use in
the dairy districts of Wisconsin are
grades and scrubs. This lamentable
the results of forty or more years of
writing, talking, teaching, preaching
and persuading against the use of such
undesirable males are unsatisfactory
and that some practical plan of actual
Improvement should now be introduced.
Only by the general use of pure bred
dairy breed bulls can dairy cows be
graded up and improve in quantity and
quality of milk production. The gen.
eral use of such bulls and employment

time increase the present yearly aver

cow from 175 to $50 pounds or more.
Two top crosses of pure dairy breed
blood have produced grade cow that
yielded $50 pounds DOB tubs) butter in
one year. Some scrub cows produce
only 80 pounds of butter year. The

her board and care. The 80 pound but
ter cow is kept at an actual loss. Only
profitable cows should be kept

ANIMALS EYES ARE MIRRORS
Reflected Light Is What Causes Them
to Glow in Dark, Not Occult
Agencies.

It is well known that the eyes of ami
mails glow like Goals in the dark. The
reason for this is commonly believed
to be because there is phosphorescent
matter in the eyeballs There are
many, too, who attribute it to some
weird occult agencies.
But it is all perfectly natural The
light does not come directly from the
eyes of the animals, but indirectly.
That is, it is a reflected light. Let an
animal come out of the forest and ap-
proach camp fire. His eyes glow like
two balls of fire. This is because his
eyes are mirrors and reflect the light
while the rest of him is in darkness,
making the spectacle all the more won
derful.
If you go in a dark room with
light the animal will look directly at
the light. Then his eyes will reflect
that light.
The case is somewhat similar to the
way the moon borrows light. The
moon itself is an opaque body without
any inherent luminosity, and conse-
Quently it has no power of emitting
light of it's own. But when the shafts
of light from the sun fall upon the sur
face of the moon they are reflected
back, and it is the suns light that
Dr1ghtens up the surface of our celes-
tial nightly attendant and makes it Wis
ible to us.
