 My old rat is not dead, but has taken up his abode in my new lum- Der pile. He is liable to be disturbed again some of these days.
 
 Will Smith helped me on my house a day and a half this week. He told me that Mrs. Smith came nigh get ting bit by the biggest rattle snake he ever saw last week. The snake struck at her in an old house and hit the floor right at her, barely missing her. She ran out of the house so badly frightened that she could not tell him what was the matter, but he looked in and saw the snake. He had just finished hooking up his team to go to the house and had her get in the wagon and go home. Then he took his rifle down to the field and killed 1t. It was about five feet long, but he shot away the rattIes. He said it would have weighed about thirty pounds and was the most vi- cious one he ever saw He said he could not have killed 1t without a gun. When 1t struck at Mrs. Smith she said il rose straight up on the end of its tail.

 A new thought has just struck me forcibly about the old age pension, and that is that it is needed to take the place of the free homesteads to which the fathers had access. They answered in place of the pension. Now that they are all gone, we should have an old age pension to take their place. In the Saturday Evening Post of August 6 Baron Rosen favors the pension. He, since the war has forced him to earn his own living, has dis, covered that the dread of homeless old age is the greatest cause of worry that there is, and that the removal of that would do the American peo. pie more good than any other legis- lation Congress could enact. In that he is certainly right.
