CHRISTIAN ENDEAVOR.

Washington Endeavorers learned with
the greatest regret this week of the ILL
ness of two of the best known of the
leaders of the Christian Endeavor move
ment-Dr. Francis E. Clark, president of
the United Society of Christian En-
deavor and of the Worlds Christian En-
deayor Union, and DR.. Amos r. Wells
editorial secretary of the United Society
and managing editor of the c. E. World.
DR.. Clark suffered an attack of pneu-
monia while attending Christian En-
deavor conventions in Korea. Before he
was well he got up from his sick bed
and took a long, hard journey through
Manchuria to Hangchow, China, in
order not to disappoint the national con-
vention in session there. He was able
to make but one address, when he was
taken sick with new complications. Dr.
and Mrs. Clark planned to leave Hang
chow on April 2. but this was prevented

GOOD EXHIBITION

An interesting boxing exhibition
was staged at the Y. M. c. A. Service

evening. John Bobrewski, lightweight
champion of the Philippine Islands,
boxed four rounds with c. Schunian Of

on the gloves for two fast rounds with
J. Martin, also of the End Infantry.
Bobrowski showed thorough
knowledge of scientific boxing. He
was hardly up to his best form, not
having been in the game for the past
year. No attempt. at heavy blows was
made at the exhibition, so it was i'm
possible to secure a line on the real

champion Schuman held his own un-

hardly touch him for the greater part

Hartford, with a complete line of ladies' and misses suits, dresses, eve ming gowns, etc. Both ladies have had a wide experience in this special department and the New Britain shoppers in Hartford may anticipate great interest in calling at their shop, being assured not only of most courteous treatment but they will enjoy an opportunity of seeing on dis play the very latest creations in wo- mems apparel.

According to the testimony of MOtorman Joyce and Conductor HOlcomb the accused did pass the trolley, but it was at very slow rate of speed. Prosecutor Klett entered a nolle after these witnesses had testified.
 It cost Valentine Moral $20 for beating his landlord, Albert Mishey, last Wednesday and resisting Ser geant Bamforth yesterday when placed under arrest. Tn court Mishey testified that the accused attacked him Wednesday and when he completed his efforts along pugilistic lines, he was sporting a black eye. Moral at tempted to place blame on Mishey for being drunk and aggressor, with no effect on the court.

be more abundant. It is to be re- gretted he is not like unto her in this respect, for there should be more snakes Joking? No, indeed, for if we will only look into their habits we will learn they were placed on earth for a purpose.
 Did 1t ever occur to you that -he majority of snakes are perfectly harm less? And not only that, did you ever consider their value to mankind? A snake is a snake, but even so it should receive it's just due.
 1 Most of the smaller snakes do man
 a service as they feed chiefly upon ! insects which are injurious to agri- ! culture. Were it not for some enemy 1 to check the propagation of destruc- ! tive insects, many products of the soil : would suffer immensely. We need the 1 smaller snakes to aid the birds and other creatures in reducing the num- | Der of insects which exist on the l ground, in the grass, under stones CT beneath logs and stumps.
 It may be well to state that some
 snakes, like some birds and other ! creatures, have habits with which we ] can find fault. There are snakes which will now and then kill frogs, toads and other creatures which are
 beneficial but in the long run th " more than repay for their wrong
 doing.
 Some people believe that the forked, ! pointed object which a snake darts
 out of it's mouth is a "Stinger" AL 1 though it appears like a formida ble weapon it is only the snakes tongue.
 Snakes do not, Or cannot sting, but
 bite; and only snakes which have l what are termed fangs are pOisOn-
 ous. The fangs are long, sharp-point- ed, curved teeth located on each side
 of the forward part of the upper jaw These teeth, or fangs are hollow, and
 near the point of each fang is a cav- ity. The fangs are connected with
 venomous glands. When poisonous snake strikes, it opens it's mouth as
 it delivers the blow. In a word, it attempts to bite If it proves sue i cessful in reaching it's enemy, the
 fangs are buried into the flesh, and l the poison passes through the fangs
 and is injected into the blood
 The idea that whiskey is an antidote
 for the bite of a poisonous snake or ] other venomous creature Is delu-
 sion so popular and general that
 naturalist always takes special pains 1 to correct and expose it whenever the opportunity presents itself. Whiskey l never will or never did cure any one | bitten by a poisonous snake. Because l some person was bitten by a harm 1 less snake which was mistaken for a | ven nomous one, and recovered after 1 drinking whiskey he attributed his 1 "cure," to the liquor, and so the Idea gained circulation. l have never ! known of a case being cured by the use of whiskey, but have known of cases where it's use resulted fatally. Whiskey only adds additional poison to the system instead of removing and destroying that of the snake.
 To cure a person bitten by a polson- ous snake, take a sharp knife and make a cut where the fangs have sunk into the desh and force the
New Britain herald., 1916-08-26

wound to bleed freely. The major portion of the venom will pass put with the blood. The wound should then be washed with permanganate of pOtash-a five grain tablet dissolved in a pint of water is the proper solu- ton.
 Of the snakes to be found in this locality only two are poisonous. IHe Rays snake, hOg-nOse or f1at-head ad- der, green snake, milk snake, gart CT snakes, ribbon snakes, black snakes water snakes and others with the eX- ception of two, are perfectly harm less. The only venomOus snakes in Connecticut are the rattlesnake and copperhead. The latter is the mor5 common in New Britain. It is more generally known as the red adder or
 red-eye. Although very poisonous, it is doubtful if the bite of copperhead would kill a person. However, it :s well to avoid the reptile. Every adult and child should know a copperhead
 at sight, and for this reason there gre several specimens on display in the Museum of the New Britain Institute. Once copperhead is seen, it will
 never be mistaken for any other other snake. Tn rattlesnake the
 store of poison is larger and the fanss
 are longer; consequently the bite is deeper and a greater amount of ven om is injected into the blood. Unless the wound is treated at once, death is very apt to result.
 For those who are interested in
 learning more about venomous snakes
 and other creatures, they may get the required information at the Museum of Natural History and Art at the New Britain Institute.
