Snakes Fight to the Death.

One of the jungle secrets is the cause of deadly enmity that exists be- tween the 'tomiga" and the black snake. o. E. Malsbury, engineer in charge of land surveys at Panama, de- scribes fight he saw between two of these. While cutting a trench along the edge of a swamp his machete men ran across "tomiga" whose head was sticking out of pile of leaves. One of the men cut the head off and pulled the body out to see why the snake had not made an effort to get away. Half way down the body was black snake coiled and biting savagely. The blacksnake was driven off, but re- mained near and twice came into the open and bit savagely at the dead ''tomiga."
 Owing to it's peculiar actions no ef- fort was made to kill the blacksnake, but the men continued their cutting for an hour or so longer. Then they returned to the spot and found the body of the "tomiga" enfolded by that of the blacksnake, which also was dead. It had been bitten about mid. way between head and tail and its body was swollen. It was concluded that the "tomiga" had started the fight by biting the blacksnake. which got hold of its enemy before 1t could coil again for another attack.

child's Narrow Escape.

Snake stories so frequently degen- crate into mere fabricatiOns that 8 serious chronicler hesitates to tell of an incident such as that which w. F. Beyer, lighthouse engineer, witnessed on the Sirio river, near Panama. The river had been swollen by the. first heavy rains and at it's junction with the Trinidad was very swift. Five men and child came down to the ford at Largatera and prepared to get into cayuco for crossing. The river looked SO treacherous, however, that they decided to make the cross ing in parties of three.
 One man, the child, boy of four years. and the paddle man got into the canoe and put of. The first eddy caught them when they were not 25 feet from shore and upset their boat. As they struck the water a huge boa dropped from limb over hanging the water, coiled itself around the child and started for shore. It glided up the steep bank and made for the jungle. The child's body caught between two stalks of bamboo and while the snake was trying to pull itself through the man on the bank ran up and killed 1t. Two bright weIts around the body of the child are the only injury he sustained.
 Gatun lake now covers an area of about fifty square miles, At it's final height of S5 feet, which 1t will attain about Nov. 1. it will cover 164 E square miles.

THE OTHER FELLOW"

Ninety-nine and nine-tenths per cent class, Intentionally or unintentionally, forget themselves and think about the other fellow"
 If the other fellow is promoted, they are jealous. feel that their em- ployer has discriminated unfairly, and that favoritism or luck is responsible for the good things which he has re- ceived.
 If they make mistake, instead of attempting to learn better, they hunt up the mistakes the other fellow has | made and excuse themselves because he has blundered
 Many young man, who has not been promoted or received raise of salary instead of analyzing himself. goes to his employer and says, You raised Smiths salary, think mine ought to be raised too"
 The employer naturally asks him what Smith has got to do with 1t. Smith had his salary raised because he deserved it. Yet proportion of
  this feeble and unbusinesslike argu- ment, forgetting that it is .'up to" them, not up to- the other fellow, that it is all important to them what they do to themselves, and of less consequences what happens to the other fellow"
 Don't envy ''the other fellow; be fv..1 wi 0Y. l periences with him; congratulate him when he is promoted: learn of him, if he is good teacher. His promotion. even if you do not receive like one. | is an indication that the firm for i which you work is prepared to do by you as it has done by him as soon as you are worthy.

 No business man worthy the name wants to have inefficient employees about him. They injure his business and injure him. The modern business man requires efficiency, and in most cases he is ready to pay the price necessary to obtain it.

(Copyright. 1915. by the N THE SOCIAL LIFE OF BUSINESS

Business, while often hard and even cruel, does not refuse to consider the human side of life.
 Thousands of captains of industries and merchant princes recognize the needs of man as well as those of trade, and encourage many forms of social intercourse among their em- ployes, including the establishment of libraries, reading rooms, gymnasiums. and the organization of athletic and other societies.
 Exhaustive experiment has shown that healthy social life can be added to business without detriment to finan. cial profit, and that the more em- ployees get together, play together as well as work together, the more eff cient they are likely to be. Workers of the same grade natural no reason why they should not enjoy one another's company in business and out of it, why they should not have common business interest and social acquaintanceship and friend. ship.
 Of course, business must be at tended to, and any social life which interferes with the conduct of busi- ness cannot very well be tolerated, but there are forms of sociability which the well-regulated store or factory should recognize, and many of them do.
 Fellow employees should be friends | as we'll as business associates. They should enjoy one another's company at work as well as out of hours. | A hearty Good morning an ex- change of smiles, pleasant joke, a business, helps to bring the strenu- ousness of work to a livable level | and assists rather than retards the action of business.
 Get acquainted with your fellow clerks. Know something of their per sonal life as we'll as of their business. 1 Organize ball teams, associations for business and social betterment. Con meet with the employees of similar in stitutions. Intermingle and inter change.
 The greatest business men in the world are members of boards of trade chambers of commerce, and other or ganizations. They lunch together un afraid of competition. Their princi ples should be emulated by the em ployees, who, collectively, are as strong factor in success as are those who command them.
 Let your wife come into this SO cial and business life, if she will
 Do not draw too sharp line be tween business and family.
 Pass along the good things you have to others, and they will reciprocate.
 The more you get together, the greater will be your accomplishment
 Remember that you alone amount to very little, that you as a part o1 ! a composite mass may hold great re sponsibility.
 The successful man Is not hermit He circulates rather than boards. He shakes hands with his competitors exchanges experiences with those oi similar callings. He has normal so cial life, the kind that does not inter fere with his business. He renders unto business all that business de serves, and does not forget there it something besides business, some thing which, if properly handled, vii push rather than handicap trade.
 Don't live by yourself. Get away ! from yourself. Get together.

Fly Poison.

House flies are more than nui-
sances; they convey disease and filth
wherever they go. So, if there are
no screens in the house, try these SIM
pie methods for getting rid of them:
In the bedroom put sponge in saul
Ger and saturate it with oil of laven-
der. If this is hung two or three feet
above the table one may eat in peace
throughout the meal Pots of rose
geranium, or the branches bruised and
hung up, are also said to be good for
flies. A honey pot of death and de-
struction to them may be made with
two ounces of ground black pepper,
four ounces of white sugar and half
a pint of sweet milk. Cook the things
together for a minute or so, and then
fill small plates with the mixtures,
keeping edibles closely covered.
Sweep up the dead flies twice day
and burn them.

modate the persons on the Arabic.
Company Makes Statement.

The White Star line, after announc'
ing there were 40 persons on the
Arabic gave out a corrected statement
giving the total number as 423. There
were 1872 second-cabin passengers, AZ
in the steerage and 243 members of
the crew.

the company:
THE Arabic left Liverpool at two
o'clock Wednesday afternoon. She was
torpedoed Thursday morning at 9:15
o'clock in latitude $3.50 north, longi-
tude 1892 west.
"She had aboard 423 persons. AS far
as can be ascertained there are 375
survivors.
1T is understood that only six pas
sengers are unaccounted for"
The White Star line said there were
only 423 persons on the Arabic, but if
the Queenstown figures as to survivors
landed are correct it would indicate
that there were 446 persons aboard.
Captain Finch, who was in COM
mand of the Arabic, is a veteran skip
per. He sailed the Pacific for years
out of San Francisco.

Main hope was pinned on the report
that steamship was proceeding to
Queenstown with about four hundred
persons on board.
A report from the British steamer
Magnolia said the Dunsley had been
torpedoed, but that some time after
the Arabic went down she was still
af1oat and was picking up survivors.
The Dunsley left Liverpool on
Wednesday for Boston. She is a yes
sci of about 5000 tons gross. and was
therefore of sufficient size to accom-
