The Snake stone.

In most accounts Of snake charm
ing in India, the snake stone plays
an important part. When the char
mcr is bitten the stone Is applied to
the bite, and is supposed to aid in
his recovery. Lieut. l.. Mackenzie,
writing in the London Field, gives
some notes on two OF these stones,
which he had the opportunity OF see
ing. They were triangular in shape,
at end rounded, with smooth, polish
ed black surfaces. They are said to
come from the hills Of Tibet and to
be solidiiied saliva OF the markhor.
This animal Is spoken Of in Lieut.
Mackenzie's note as the Persian
snake eater" It's saliva Is thought
to contain an antidote to snake poi
son. The markhor Is a species Of
wild goat found in India, Tibet and
Kashmir.

SETTER HAS SPECIAL GLASSES.
Eyes Failed, Owner Takes Dog to Oc-

A dispatch from Lead Hill, Ark.

A dispatch from Lead Hill, Ark,
says:
Minnesota Fanny, thoroughbred
English setter, granddau ghter OF the
famous Joe Cummins, wears specta-
cles. She is the property Of Troy
Cant ell, of this city, and was fitted
out this week with "specks" by an
oculist Of Harrison, who found that
she was suffering from astigmatism
This dog has been known as the best
hunting dog in northwest Arkansas
for years.
This year, before the opening Of
the quail shooting season, Fanny
went to the fields by herself, coming
in at night badly scratched and many
times showing evidences Of bad falls
and bumps. Her owner could not
understand until the opening Of the
season, when he took his gun with
Fanny to the field.
Fanny tried hard, but could not
keep from falling into bitches and
running into trees, and Cantrell
thought she was locoed.
1t was discovered that her eyes
had gone bad during the summer
and an oculist was called.
The dogs "specks" are held in
place by straps and appear very
much like goggles. The lenses are
protected from damage by protrudfng
rims Of metal. The dog seems to
understand their benefit and hunts
like an old-timer with them on.

Clemson College, S. G..

New York, Nov. 21.-The Carne-
gle foundation for the advancement
Of learning met here in annual ses-
sion to-day to consider revision of
conditions governing Carnegie pen
sions to college and university presi-
dents and professors.
President Pritchctt announced that
Carnegie had added $2,O0O,00O to
the fund since the last meeting, in
creasing it to $1I.O0O,00O. Forty
eight professors were retired on pen
sions during the past year, making
39S in all.
Secretary Clyde Furst, Of the foun-

tees that politics or any other outside
cause had entered into the refusal Of
the foundation to grant pension to
Woodrow Wilson, now President
elect, who applied for one two years
ago. He explained that conditions in
Governor Wilson's case made 1t i'm
possible to grant the pension and con-
form with the governing rules.

Favors Single 6-Ycar Term.

Washington. Nov. 9.-President
Taft's declaration in favor Of a con-
stitutional amendment to limit the
Presidential tenure Of Office to a
single term OF six years, with ineli-
gi3ility to either a succeeding or
term and President
elect Wilson's endorsement of the
Democratic platform, favoring such a
limitation, are believed here to fore
shadow strong pressure for legisla-
ton along this line early in the com
ing Congress.
Numerous measures have been in
troduced in both Houses OF Congress
looking to a change in the Presiden-
tial tenure. The Senate Judiciary
Committee wrcstled with the problem
in the last session and Senator Cum
Minis, who reported the Works pro-
posed amendment out Of committee,
purposes to press the measure when
Congress convencs. A similar amend
ment is hanging fire in the House
judiciary Committee.

Progressive Farmer.)

Unquestionably, the main reason
why many farmers make such poor
showing and accumulate so little is
to be found in the fact that they
have no definite purpose in their
farming. They do not know what
they are trying to do. Their main
crop this year may he cotton, next
year it may be corn. another year it
may be something else. They may
'go into" hogs when prices are high
and out again when prices get low.
They do not know even now what
crops are to go in the different fields
next year. and they have only the
vaSucat sort Of idea as to what they
Will have to dispose o" next fall or
next spring
This sort Of farming will never sue
cccd. The first thing for the farmer
to do in planning his work is 10 de-
eide what particular line Of farming
he Will follow. Ii he IS going to
make cotton, or peanuts, or hogs or
dairy products. or anything else, his
main dependence for cash, he must
then plan his rotation. lay out his
fields, arrange his work with a view
TO making this speciality as profitable
as possible. Then he can give attcn-
ton 10 the best methods Of handling
the other crops aud other lines OF
work.
Judici0us specialization. or at least
ludiciouS arrangement OF crops and
work with a definite end in view, is
the only safe plan for the farmer to
follow. This is not Incompatible with
proper rotation and diversiiicat ton.
In tact, it is almost an essential part
OF 1t. iIaphazard rotations, uncer-
tam aims, constantly changing plans
must give way on thousands Of our
southern farms to definitely planned
progress toward a determined end be-
Tor" any high degree OF prosperity is
reached.

THE "BApTIsT SPECIAL" BIBLE.
New Improved" Version Uses the
Term Immerse.

What Is regarded as most radi-
cal version of the Bible, says Phila-
delphia dispatch to the New York
World, has been put on sale at the
American Baptist Publication Society
rooms. 1t is Baptist Bible for Bap-
lists only, and much of the old text
has been entirely changed.
In that portion Of the New Testa-
ment where the conversation OF the
Saviour is described, in place Of US
ing the Greek "baptize" the literal
translation "immerse" Is used, so as
to conform with Baptist teachings
that Christ went down into the wa
ter for the baptism.
All the archaic forms Of the King
James and Revised Versions have
been completely eliminated. The new
Bible Is called the "lmproved Yer
sion,' and is distinctly different from
the old Scriptures. Practically no
other church but the Baptists will be
able to use 1t, because it interprets
the Scriptures to mean solely what
the Baptist church teaches.
"Adam and Eve" Eleminatcd.
New York, Nov. 20.-First copies
of the revised edition Of the Bible
published by the American Baptist
Publication Society has reached the
society's headquarters at No. 23' East
Twenty-sixth street The new edi-
tion is radical departure in it's con-
struction from the language used in
the King James version.
In the new Bible the names
adam and Eve" do not appear.
Their place is taken by the words
"man" and woman" which is di-
rect translation of the old Hebrew
names. The word "hell" Is eliminat-
ed, underwood" being inserted in
its places.
Other great changes are made. The
story Of Jonah and the whale is
changed so that the words "great
fish"-as being nearer interpreta-
ton Of the ancient Hebrew-take the
place of whale" Jehovah thy
God" takes the place Of Lord thy
God" Carved" replaces "graven,"
and the word Immersed" in paren-
theses follows the word "baptize" in
every instance. In the new edition
the Lords Prayer becomes:
"Our Father who are in heaven,
hallowed be thy name. Thy king
dom come. Thy will be done, as in
heaven, so on earth. Give us this
day our daily bread. And forgive us
our debt, as we also have forgiven
our debtors. And bring us not into
temptation, but deliver us from the
evil one. Amen"
Owing to its recent arrival none
Of the Baptist ministers seen would
commit themselves to an expression
Of opinion concerning the new edi-
ton, saying that they had not yet
had an opportunity to study it. One
Of them, when asked whether he
thought the charm of the old English
phraseology would not be spoiled
by the alterations, replied that the
aim Of the society has been to pro-
duce an absolutely correct Bible, ir-
respective Of any charm of language.

Post-NIortem Appearance.
Congestion Of the blood vessels Of
the meninges membranes covering
the brain and spinal cord) appears
to be constant and areas Of softened
nervous tissue are often found in the
brain. In one instance in particular,
a softcned amorphous larger than
silver dollar was found in the left
| cerebral hemisphere. This horse was
apparently in normal condition when
placed in the stable at night, but was
delirious when found in the morn
ing. The animal died within six
hours and (as this lesion must have
been well developed before the symp-
toms appearedD the hopelessness Of
medicinal treatment In such cases
is at once apparent.
Treatment.
Medicinal treatment is unsatisfac-
tory and practically useless in the
majority Of cases, as the central
nervous system has usually under
gone degenerative changes before the
symptoms develop. When the ami
nal is noticed, before the ability to
swallow is lost, a purgative should
be given Immediately. One ounce
and a half Of Barbados aloes dis
solved In a quart of warm water Is
probably the most satisfactory, al
though three-quarters Of a pound or
one pound of Epson salts (well di-
luted), or one quart to a pint and
half Of raw linseed oil may be given.
1t will be noticed thrt these are lar
ger doses than ordinarily recon-
mended for horses or mules. If an
imals have difficulty in swallowing or
are unable to swallow, drenching is
not to be attempted, as the drugs
will pass to the lungs and cause a
fatal attack Of pneumonia in the ma
jority Of cases. Cathartics admins
tered hypodermically are far safer
and Of quicker action than those
mentioned above, and If yeterina-
rians are available, their services
should be secured Immediately.
Where veterinarians are not avail
able 1t is possible that the local ply
sician will administer such cathartics.
Heart stimulants, narcotics, ETC., are
also indicated at various stages Of
disease, but their administration
should be left to the veterinarian.
Potassium iodide in one and half
drachm doses should be given twice
daily as soon as the animal Is able to
swallow. All horses and mules on
the premiess should be given com
plete change of food
Prevention.
Do not feed moldy corn or fodder.
If necessary to feed corn 49, poor
quality, this should be sheIed and
poured into water before feeding.
Most Of the damaged kernels will
float and can be SKINNED off. The
balance should be mixed with other
grain If possible. Careful supervis-
ion Of the feeding of horses and
mules will prevent this disease.
