Or. Woods Hutchinson, who recent
.ly cleared up some of the mysteries
about poison iyies, has now perform
ed q similar service to what are
konwn at rattlesnake bites. This Is
subject in which we are Interested
still even in Iowa, for occasionally
rattler appears on the scene. One OF
the most recent instances OF this
dreadful afliction was when Senator
Newberry OF Strawberry Point. was
bitten and confined to hospital for
some time.
DR.. Hutchinson says that he has
failed to ind an authenticated case OF
death due to rattlesnake bites. He
says that he has traced scores OF
alleged cases. but in every instance
he found there was nothing to It.
One "fairly well substantiated case"
OF death he did find, but the death,
from septic poisoning, was due to
carelessness In treating the wound.
The ''flret aid" man used rusty jack
knife to cut away some Of the flesh
around the wound, and 1t was that
rust that brought about the poisoning
that proved fatal. Another case re-
suited in death from alcoholic poison.

just Aids Digestion.
This rattlesnake poison, therefore,
corresponds to the human saliva
which Is injected into the food to aid
digestion. The snakes saliva is more
powerful because the snake eats more
indigestible food. When the snake
swallows mouse he submerges the
mouse with this secretion. and 1t Is
SO powerful that 1t dissolyes the
mouse, bones and an.
When the snake bites you some OF
this saliva Is injected into the wound

CHIEF WITNESS FOR
ROADS TAKES STAND

Analyses Demands of Enginemen-
Last Witness in Wage Arbitration
May Be on Sandwich or More.

Chicago Feb. ia. w. Trenholm,
the last of the witnesses for the west
ern railroads in the wage arbitration
began an anlysis OF the demands of the
enginemen today. Mr.. Trenholm, who
is general manager of the Chicago,
Minneapolis, ST. Paul & Omaha rail-
road is the chief witness for the en-
ployers. AS he proposes to discuss in
detail each of the sixteen demands
made by the men. he will be on the
stand a week or more. The first de-
mand concerns a days work. In pas
senger service the demand names five
hours or 100 miles, in freight, ten
hours or 100 miles; overtime to be paid
for pro rata.
The witness said that standardization
of hours and pay were ideals to be de-
sired but that the task was one of
monumental proportions.
II believe in an honest days pay for
an honest days work. he said. Under
the demand made by the men, an en-
gineer who started out on freight run
and had gone perhaps ten miles and
was called to leave that train and haul
in disabled passenger train, would
have to be paid full day as freight
engineer and another day as a passen-
ger engineer. I think that engineer
should do both jobs and be content with
an honest days pay. no matter what
he was called upon to haul"
