 The snake that bit the boy was of huge size, according to the de- scription given by the child bit- ten. He said when he first saw the reptile it looked to him as though 1t was fence post lying in the underbrush.
 The physician attending the child stated that the bite re- ceiVed was one of n most serious nature, and that had it not been for stimulation given through n glass of wildcat whisky, which had been in the home for several years, there would probably have been no chance for the child to have recovered.
 About three years aRO, while clearing a right of way for new road the father of the boy found hidden in the bushes along side the place where he was working gallon jug of white corn whisky, which he carried to his home, where it was placed for safekeeping. and had not been opened until on this occasion, when it was found to be most needed.
 The child is now cut of danger and is rapidly recovering from the shock received.

It proposes to give to the great con sumer of coal the man who has storage facilities, the man who buys over a hundred tons, cheap rates in the summer; and then forces the in- terstate commerce commission to charge the old rate in winter-and to add to the old rate, the reduction made in the summer for the benefit of the great consumer

 How It Discriminntes
 Senator Underwood attacked the section of the bill which gives the interstate commerce commission the right to commander freight cars for the movement of coal as a section preferring one industry over another, putting one industry out of business, and enhancing the opportunity of the other.
 "The battle cries of the republican party" he concluded never greatly appealed to me. Taking the govern ment out of business was alluring in the last campaign. But for me. am willing to stand on the Jefferson n principle that that government which governs least governs best. There is no reason at this time for the government dipping it's hands deeper into private business.
 Therefore, am opposed to the passage of the bll.'

THOUSANDS HAVE BAD BREATH AND
 DON'T KNOW IT

Nothing is more offensive than bad breath. Yet thousands of people suffer with this distressing afflic- tion--and the surprising part of it is that a good part of them do not even realize it. Most people hesitate even to mention this disagreeable subject.
 An excellent remedy for bad breath is daily use of an antiseptic mouth wash such as Steroline. A few drops of Steroline on your tooth brush will keep your mouth cool, sweet and fresh. It makes an excellent denti- frice, as it gets between the teeth, reaching all the hidden spots that or dinary tooth pastes and powders can not reach. It arrests decay which is one of the commonest causes of bad breath and gives your mouth that clean feeling" Get Steroline from your druggist today!--Adv.

DIVING or THIRsT,v SENATE MEMBERS VOTED "DRYr

Washington, June 30.-( -(Special)- The Senate will quickly follow the action of the House In so repairing the original Volstead act that doc tors will be denied the right of pre- scribing beer for patients If they should think such prescribing neces- sary.
 The fight in the Senate will be short, The fight in the House was an d-fashioned prohibition struggle in which the throb of the tom tom was again resorted to. Men displayed their passions and their weaknesses. Great statesmen who spend hours each day hunting a drink, loudly voted beer to it's doom. Men who go on that sultry afternoon would have gladly paid $10 for cold bottle of Budweiser did not hesitate minute about casting their ballots.
 Representative Tillman of Arkansas made the most typical prohibition speech. He based his argument on the alleged disinclination of Irish men to subscribe to the theories and practices of prohibition. q love the Irish" he said, but grow sad at heart when l see them asking for this German brew of he'll"
 Masters in Gallery
 The prohibition masters sat in the gallery. Representative Hill of Mary land pointed out Wayne B. Wheeler. counsel for the Anti Saloon League of America, and referred to him as the attorney paid S50,000 per annum by John D. Rockefeller. The pro- hibittonists in the House stood on their legs and loudly pplauded their strategist.
 When the bill was finally passed, there was a remarkable demonstra- tion by the victors. They proceeded as if the millennium had been restored, and all the troubles of the world dis sipated forever The only notable speech against the bill was made by epresentative Cochran of New York. It was not answered, but, neverthe- less, was entirely futile.
 Southern statesmen voted for the bill to the man.
 The Senate will be more sedate. Senators, who oppose prohibition, re- gard 1t as an additional enforcement measure, and will support it, in all Likelihood.
