yellow fluid Of characteristic odor.
The deaths from bites of poisonous
snakes vary from per cent in the
case Uf copperheads to about 20 per
cent for the large rattiers.
The symptoms Of snake 1;lte are in
tense pain, discolored swelling of the
bitten part. and profound distur-
Dances Of the circulatory and nervous
systems. There IS great weakness
and prostration, nausea, and pro-
fuse flow of saliva. Muscular paraly-
sis may occur in from three to four
hours. Inconsistencies is rare, but
the patients often fall into a kind OF
stupor.
AS soon as possible after the bite
has occurred, a band made of hand
kerchief or some similar article
should be applied a few inches above
the wound, between it and the heart
and twisted with stick to prevent
the poison being carried into the sys-
tenn by the circulating blood. The
bites Of most snakes consist of but
two punctures; these should be freely
incised with knife and then sucked
There is no danger in sucking the
wound if there ARE no cracks or sores
in the mouth or on the tongue. After
the wound has been sucked it should
be cauterized by applying carbolic or
nitric acid on the end of a stick, such
as a match. Or cauteriZatiOn may
be done by heating nail, knife blade,
or some such article and freely burn
ing all parts of the wound.
After the wound has been sucked
and cauterized, the bandage may be
loosened. 1t should be allowed to res
main loose for one minute and then
be frightened up again. If no alarm
ing symptoms have developed within
20 minutes it may again be loosened,
this time for two minutes, after
which it should be frightened again.
After another period of 20 minutes
the bandage should be loosened for
three minutes. This procedure
should be kept up for several hours,
gradually increasing the time the
bandage is sijoff; the object lis, of
course, to allow only small quanti-
ty Of the poison to get into the sys-
tenn at one time.
If in spite of the local measures
and the use Of the bandage general
symptoms Of weakness develop, the
patient must be given stimulants. 1t
is commonly believed that large doses
of whisky or alcohol in some form

should be administered. This is a
Serious mistake, as the alcohol will do
harm by. adding another depressant
to that which is already in the sys-
tenn.
Instead of whisky it is better to
give aromatic spirits Of amonia, one
half teaspoonful in water every hour
and half cupful of very strong cot-
fee every two hours.
OF recent years serums have been
produced which are very effective IN
certain kinds of snake bites, but they
are rarely obtainable when most
needed.-Dr. Washburn, in The Pro-
gressive Farmer.

house on the North corner Of Main

house, then at the forks of the road,

court house was erected on the lot,
purchased of Granny Corley, among
trees Of natural growth, pines, oaks,

Mr.. John Meetze was clever, good

. TO almost anyone asking it of him. He
was perseyering. energetic. thorough
going and did more than any one else
in building up the place, urging and
pressing to success many of the enter

SOUTH|S CENTER 1. OF |. O.P. ATTACK IN ELECTION YEAR
Fess Appeals For Republican House in Resigning to Enter Senate Race in Buck
 eye State
By HUGH ". RODENTS Washington Bureau, The ACs-Hernld,
 800 Davidson Building.


 Washington, July 2-(Special} }-- Evidence again aecumulates tending to prove that despite their admi5- sion or boast in campaign years that the country is reunited, the re- publicans in election years invariably wave the bloody shirt, and proceed against the south.
 It is an old political rabbit foot which appeals not only to those who can't forget the differences which prevailed in 1861. but to the negro who infests the populous centers of the east and middle west and who is easily aroused to hatred of the south where he cannot live with whites on terms of equality
 Fe<s Resigns
 Representative S. D. Tess of Ohio has resigned as chairman of the re- publican congressional campaign committee. He Is anti-south with an apparent fondness for the negro. He vas formerly an educator in school which catered to negroes His sue cessor as chairman Is William Wood representative from Indiana. His predilections are identical with those of Fess, 1t has been indicated.
 MT. Fess resigned for the purpose of running for the Senate against Senator Atlee Pomerene. democrat. In announcing his resignation, he .s- sued q long statement in which he extolled hts own alleged success in transforming a democratic House into a republican House. In concluding he made his appeal to the voters oi the country to re-elect republican members of the House, and, of course to elect him to the Senate.
 Makes Prediction
 That appeal was entirely a sec tional appeal. It was based on cht fact that If the next House is dem ocratic, all important chalrmansh'p; will fall to southern democrats rep. resenting II states in the south eastern corner of the United States He declares truthfully that in sucf event, southern democrats woule control all Legislation, fiscal anu otherwise.
 There is the implication that these chairmen would show favor to tn, south in matters of taxation, would in other words, make the other sec tons pay while the south rode fret of charge.
 Fess refers to the fact that years ago, the south tried to dissolve th' union or destroy the government. He protests against turning the gov ernment over to the men who trie' to destroy 1t. The appeal is iden teal with others made by Fess.
 He evidently holds that 1t Is -h' most effective that can be made tt the intelligent voters of the repub lican party in Ohio and other states

 pr. Milton paused. Davis and clavering listening intently, nodded agreement with his marriage views Abruptly. Clavering resumed Glen denins's story:
 Of course, I had no intention oi marrying, Jim. But, being a man you will understand when I say that girl made me forget everything but herself. I was like the fellow in the play who. Cant sleep, can't eat can't think of anything else but you.
 Sexual attraction is a law of na- ture that psychologists and philoso- phers have written reams about Some have acclaimed 1t, some have disclaimed it, but not one has ex- plained 1t.
 To man sexual attraction is al- ways an amusement. With the woman 1t is always a business. An English poet said this much nicer many years ago when he wrote: Love Is of mans life a thing apart 'Tis woman's whole existence"
 "So that's why Harry married Doris" unused Davis in a tone of innuendo.
