several large rattlers.

they have been for years. he said.
The season seems to have been just
right to bring them cut. A forest
ranger told me that he had killed more
this simmer than in the last five
years put together.
Il have been bitten by rattlers seven
times in my life, but always had per-
manganate of potash with me and
saved myself from serious harm.

knife and apply the antidote before

When Jack returned with tho rep
tiles he entertained his friends with
an exhibition OF snake dentistry, in
which he extracted the fangs from sew
eral rattlers.
ut isn't generally known that a
rattlesnake has seven sets OF fangs.

Strange Human Foods

The Chinese get a very palatable

worm. The poor remove the envelope,
broil the chrysalis and eat it with salt
and pepper. In the homes of wealth,
however, the chrysalis is fried in lard,
butter or oil, and mixed with tho
yolk of an egg. But the strangest Of
all food is the larvae of a certain fly,
common in California and known as
the Ephydra. The flies are washed on

collected In bushel baskets. The In
