Uncle Bill Doney wants to know when poker was invented.

 J. O. Parsons and w. A. Campbell are organizing a society for the pro tection of snakes, and particularly of rattle snakes. Parsons believes they would, if properly trained, make very good watch dogs, and Campbell has had experience with their utility in other directions. He says that where he used to live, one of the neighbors caught baby rattler and after time succeeded in tanning it. It grew to be fourteen feet long, was very play ful, never showing anger when fon- dled by the children, though averse to having anyone touch it's rattles. It followed its master just as dog does.
 One day there came up a terrific electrical storm. Several homes in tnC tO"h "Clt SlluSh py hShNhhiS' when the snake, seeing the fiery bolts falling around, and seeming to sense the danger that threatened the home of it's infancy, forthwith climbed to the roof and in perpendicular posi- ton, standing on its head, shook its rattles violently at the heavens, defy ing the lightning. The electricity, at tracted by this lively lightning rod, reduced to ashes this noble animal and saved the house.
 One of our local physicians tells about taking care of patient during two confnements. The pay for the first was very slow in arriving. The proud father, after the arrival of num- Der two, asked the doctor if the baby had any marks, to which the doctor re- piled:
 "Yes, one-C. O. D."
