PYTH0NS AS PETS.
Tho Man Liked Them, but They Were
Not Appreciated by His Wife.

Not Appreciated by His Wife.
An Englishman who spent much tina
in Bengal tells in Blackwoods Magn-
zine about couple of pythons that
were kept as pets. He says:
Zone hears good deal about tho
snakes, but one sees very little Of them
at any time and in cold weather moth
ing at all. Indeed. the only snakes l
saw were two great pythons whic:. n
planter kept in one Of his indigo watts
for his private delectation. He loved to
watch them and feed them and poke
them with a stick and see their fiat.
vicious heads drive at 1t with the
speed and force of steam hammer
"His wife liked them less because
one of them had once escaped from the
vat and wandered into her bedroom.
It was daytime. and she was resting
from the heat, and, hearing it advance,
breathing heavily, she thought 1t was
her somewhat asthmatical fox terrier
and told it to lie down. AS it seemed
to be making for her bed instead, she
looked up to find that it was one Of tue
pythons looking for a warm place in
which to lie. Her screams brought her
husband, who, annoyed by this esca-
pade Of a pet which his wife had new
er properly appreciated, thoughtlessly
seized it by the neck, with the result
that in twinkling it had knotted itself
around his arm and nearly pulped it
before his bearer could arrive and get
1t by the tail.
"Two men, it seems, can deal with a
python fairly effectively by grasping
each an end Of it, thus preventing it
sfrom weaving itself into the coils that
crush. But no single man is Of much
use, for the reason that he cannot in
the nature Of things grasp and keep
taut an eighteen foot length of writh-
ing muscle. The planter told me that.
as it was. his arm had turned black and
blue all over. as If it had been squeezed
in a heavy door. and it was weeks be-
fore he could use it. But he still loved
his python"

once upon returning from concert
tour decided to go straight to her villa
in France, accompanied only by her
maid. She knew there were no serv-
ants there at the time, but felt no
alarm. They arrived in the early even
ing and enjoyed being home again.
At nearly midnight they sat softly
talking together, with only the mellow
moonlight flooding the rooms, when
they heard a window of the south
balcony being raised, and an instant
later steps were heard in the hall.
Almost paralyzed with fear-no one
to help, no weapon at hand-there
flashed over the prima donna a realiza-
ton Of her power Of song. 1T has
moved thousands" she thought, and
with trembling notes she began to sing
what had been uppermost in her
thoughts before the entrance Of the ill.,
truder, Home, Sweet Home" The ex'
quisite voice grew steadier, and it rang
out in its sweetest, purest strains.
Then followed "Old Folks at Home"
but her audience had gone. The maid
saw a dark figure creep through the
window and steal across the lawn and
out Of the gate.
Some weeks later NOrdica received
the following letter:
Dear Madame-On the night Of the -
I entered your home to relieve you OF all
your diamonds, jewels and money. but An
angel song rang out in the sweet words of
mothers songs. and my hand and heart
were arrested. and vowed never. never
again to do aught that would sorrow that
gainted one.

bless you!
