Hot drinks are a useful addition to
all meals in cold weather; but don't
drink tea and coffee. The ultimate
effect of both OF these drugs is to
decrease the heat production in the
body and to permit an accumulation
of substances commonly known as
uric acid.

CRADLE LAND OF HISTORY
Memories That Cluster Around Vil- iages and Mountains Now Under
 Turkish Domination.

While the allied fleet is endeavoring to force it's way to the stronghold of the Turk, it is passing by and bring ing into notice lands and towns which are so ancient as to seem almost names without identity. Yet the cities of Smyrna and Ephesus, the island of Mitylene, the dozens of historic will lages and mountains are all places which were the center of history hun dreds of years before the Christian era.
 Mitylene is the modern name for the island of Lesbos, one of the Grecian archipelago, a spot where Turning Sapho loved and sung" Here people so ancient that their very existence is almost mythical fiourished nearly 5000 years ago Orpheus, the god of music, is said to have visited it's shores, and other famed poets and musicians made it their home. Yet today it is the home of a few ignorant Greeks and even more ignorant Turks.
 Smyrna, which lies at the head of the gulf of the same name, fourished so long ago that it had chapel to Nemesis, the goddess of revenge. It was built probably a thousand years before Christ, and is one of the seven cities claiming to be the birthplace of Homer. On a tiny island now used as quarantine station, and just outside of the city, the great philosopher An Tho Chrictian church was built here by Bishop Poly carp about one hundred and fifty years after the crucifixion.
 A railroad connects Smyrna with Ephesus, which was the alleged birth place of the goddess Diana and the spot on which her famous temple was built. Ephesus was a thousand years old when the Christian era began. Croesus and Alexander the Great vis- ited it; 1t was subdued by Marc An tony and seen by Cleopatra. There are to be seen the ruins of the prison in which Paul was held, the rock in which the seven sleepers slumbered, and 1t was in this city that the great council of the Christian churches met in the year 431 to put down the Nes- torian heresy.
 All these lands, cradles of the hu. man race, the birthplaces of history and the beginning of civilization as if has come down in the last 5000 years are in the domain of the Turk, yet in a few months, perhaps, they may be awakened to a new life with quite another government.

GOT THE B|G SNAKE
Native Used Swamp Angel to Se-
 cure Boa Constructor.
Animal Collector Tells Remarkable Story of Ills Capture, but He Has the Reptile He Had Set His
 Heart On.

Jacob Schmidt, one of the best known animal catchers in America. was a passenger on the steamship Al mirante, which arrived from Central American ports recently, says the New York Globe. He brought back with him over twenty-one different varie- ties of animals and birds, including a shark-faced lizard, a crawling parrot and jul, which is of the same spe. cies, Captain Schmidt thinks, as the South African anteater
 A blue-faced monkey, which was among the cargo, died on the trip, strangling itself between the bars of its cage. Many of the animals will go to the Bronx zoo.
 Captain Schmidt told how he had trapped a giant boa constructor with the aid of a native animal charmer in the wilds of Colombia. Schmidtt's men had been trying to trap the snake for a week, but the reptile was too willy until Nagal Tax, one of the twen- ty odd natives in the party, hit upon a scheme. Tax had considerable fame as an animal charmer, though he didn't attempt to work his wiles on the snake.
 swamp angel, as the blacks call white dove, which is not uncommon in the Colombia lowlands, was caught by Tax, who spent two days in getting 1t trained.
 "The next midday We started to trap the 'bo con-" said Captain Schmidt. q expected the experiment to fail, but I had tried everything else and failed I didn't just see how Takky was going to land thirty-foot snake with bird not much bigger than robbin, but I calculated on giv- ing him every chance.
 When we reached the spot where the 'bo con had been last reported we scattered until one of the natives final ly located him. Takky made us all keep away and stealthily made his way near the snake with his swamp angel In hand and told us to remain silent until we heard his whistle. He said 1t might be that day, maybe not until the next.
 "At dusk Takky's shrill whistle rang out and we rushed forward There, on the ground, dead, I figured, lay the snake. The swamp angel was circling round it's head, while Takky was do- ing a hoppy kind of dance to show his pleasure. I had told him to be careful not to hurt the snake and I was mad clean through and told Takky so.
 Him ain't croaked; only sleepin'," declared Takky. Angel made him dizzy, fyin' round his head in circle. He tried to charm angel and I kept her fyin' just out of reach"
 Well, there was the snake, and we lost no time ropin' him. don't know how Takky got him and I don't care. but these fellows can do mysterious things down there. Some time when I got more time I'll tell you more ex- periences with Takky."
