BOY CUT OUT THE POISON
Presence of Mind of South Dakota
Youth Saves the Life Of
His Sister.

Dupree, s. D.-The presence of mind
of Lawrence Minker, the thirteen-year-
old o Of County Commissioner Mink
or, saved the life of his nine-year-old
brother Neil when the latter was bit
ten by a rattlesnake. The older brother
whipped out a knife and cut around
the spot where the reptiles fangs had
entered the flesh, and then sucked the
poison from the wound.
He then tied a whip lash tightly
about his brothers leg above the
wound, tightening it by means of the
stock Of the whip to prevent the poison
reaching a vital spot, and then walked
home with the little fellow, causing
him to walk slowly in order to avoid
heating his blood.
A physician found but very little
poison was left In the wound, and
stated the prompt action of the older
brother had saved the younger ones
life.

Manager.

Mr.. S.. the theatrical manager,
though in other respects a thorough
business man. could neither read nor
write. but kept q private secretary,
who had strict iniunctions not to be-
tray the secret.
One day the manager was dining at
his hotel. when a gold watch was raf-
fed for. Each of the guests staked
two shillings. wrote his name IN a
scrap of paper and threw It into a hat.
Our manager was dreadfully perplexed
when his turn came to sign his name.
However, in order not to expose him
self, he pretended to write, rolled up
the blank piece OF paper and threw 1t
into ths hat along with the rest,
AS chance would have It. this very
paoer was drawn. Great was the as
Punishment when II was found to be
blank. But B.. the low comedian,
who was present, asked TO have II

ders and in France is a matter to
which the people Of the dominion have
given considerable thought.
From a member Of the Overseas

Canada, maple trees be planted over
the isolated graves and along the
roads leading to the cemeteries. He

Tobacco and P~oison.eas.

Writing to a friend, a corporal of
the Canadian artillery says:
What hurt us most was the gas
they turned loose. 1t made the air
green and yellow, and it just chokes
and poisons a man where he stands.
Tobacco saved many a boys life in
that battle. We began to feel pretty
choky at the guns, and wondered II
tobacco would help Us. We thought
we would try it, and put a big chew
in u mouths, and it made us spit
the gas up. Now, when we notice
the gas in the air, we put tobacco

gasoline stove ablaze.

LOT OF THE SERBIAN WOMAN
To Her Falls the Hard Work Of the
Household While Her Husband
Guards Nations Freedom.

"A house is not based upon the
ground. but upon a woman" is a pop
ular proverb in Montenegro, echoed
heartily by others Of the Serbian race.
Among the Serbs women are burdened
from their marriage day with harder
work than the men because they have
to use the sickle as well as the spin
ming wheel, to tend the iocks with a
piece of knitting or embroidery In
their hands. and to build haystacks
that will do them as much credit as
the earthenware crockery which is
made in summer for the use OF the
whole household.
The Serbian cottage contains no pot
ter's wheel, and the rough clay has to
be pounded with an ak and worked In
to a paste by mixing with hot water
Dough is placed in these primitive
dishes, which are supplied with hooks
to draw them from the embers, where
the bread has been baked very slowly.
In Montenegro the curiously-shaped
shoes called opanke are always home
made, and, owing to the primitive IA
ture of the mountain roads, often have
to be renewed. 1t is considered de
grading for a man to take up any
trade. The men lead a pastoral and
warlike existence, and disdain to carry
burdens on their backs, though they
treat the women of their household
with kindness and are never known to
use them cruelty. The defense of ma
tional freedom must be the main OBJ
ject of his hardy mountain a ce who
have come through a hard struggle
against the Turks without losing their
independence.
The women of Serbia take a second
airy part in all public rejoicing, such
as the Slava. The Slava is a social
gathering as well as a religious festi
val, and guests are welcomed by the
women of the house rising to greet
them. A Serbian wife must always
jump to her feet to return a greeting
even if she is seated at her spinning
wheel; she may never cross the road
when a man is passing.
Serbian women have their owr
merrymakings, known as Prela and
Sela, when they sit at work together
and while away the time by story tell
ing (Prela) and singing (Sela). The!
are witty by nature and have a rea
gift for expressing their feelings il
song.
A collection Of lyrics, composed by
Serbian peasant women, was published
not long ago, and astonished the crit
les of the western world by the reve
lation of a new tone in national poetry
Most of the songs are sad and slow
but there r gay little tunes, i'm
provised when the Kolo is danced, me1
and women joining hands and formins
a big circle.

What Did She Mean?

The two yonug ladies had gushed
and cleared" each other until the
other passengers in the tram were
heartily sick of it; especially as they
never lost a chance of getting in a
nasty cut at each other.
Just before they parted, Angelina
obliged Emmeline with a stamp for
a letter.
"Oh, | must give you a penny for
this!" exclaimed Emmie, as she pre-
pared to leave the car.
Don't bother, dear" cooed Angie;
give it to me next time | see you"
But you mayn't see me for a long
time" protested Emmie.
"Oh, well, the loss wouldn't be
great" cooed Angie, more sweetly
than ever.-Pearson's Weekly.
