How to Capture and Control Any Rep

If you are quick and fearless you
may manage any snake SO long as you
are armed with a cane or q piece of
wood like cane.
Push the snake around Ia any way
that you can In order to prevent him
from coiling. When you have him In
Just the right position make a very
quick move and place your cane across
his neck Just behind his head. Then
you have him. He cannot get out OF
control.
Now bend down and grasp the snake
In the place where your cane rests.
just behind his head. With your left
hand put his body under Your right
arm. No matter how enraged the rep
tile may be he can do no harm as long
as you hold him In this position. His
body Is held by your arm against your
side so he cannot coil around you or
around any convenient object.
In handling snakes In the house 1t is
essential to keep away from furniture
or anything which the snake could coil
about They ere very strong, and once
they get themselves wrapped around
any object 1t is exceedingly difficult to
pry them loose. - Popular Science

Noles In Everything.

1t is held by more than one high au-
thority that matter is neither continu-
Gus nor heterogeneous. Thomson show
ed by an experiment that hydrogen can
be passed into a vacuum tube through
an incandescent platinum window. In
similar way sodium passes through
glass. and this is a useful fact In the
manufacture OF vacuum tubes, because
sodium can be passed into the tube TO
absorb the residual oxygen. Bellad.
the Italian physicist, has shown that
hydrogen can pass through cold iron.
Matter may therefore be generally re-
garded as full Of holes.
