GREED CAUSED SNAKES DEATH.

A snake in search of food at East St. Kilda, near Melbourne, writes our correspondent, came upon a chickens egg. The snake sucked in the egg, which passed towards the region of his tail in the form of an oval swell ing. The snake then raised it's head and, perceiving a knot-hole in the wooden henroost wall, inserted it's head and the forepart of it's body and swallowed a second egg
 On the approach of the owner of the henroost the snake tried to re- tire, but the second egg would not pass through the knot hole and when he tried to advance the egg in his tail equally impeded his progress Thus ''egg-bound" at both ends, the reptile fell a victim to it's own greed London Mail
