CURIOUS BELIEFS
REGARDING SNAKES

In spite of the great decrease 10 the
number of British reptiles, many SUI
perstitions and charms regarding
snakes still exist
The most potent charm against
snakes is said to be mllpreve, Really.
II is a piece of eorallne limestone
about the size OF pigeons egg Old
fashioned people believe that on one
night in the year all the adders meet
together and start kissing Their
breath forms a bubble which solidifes
into the milpreve. Whoever finds 1t
is assured OF good luck and immunity
from snake bite.
Another superstition is that the
breath Of snake on hazel wand will
produce hard stone ring which is an
lnfallihle remedy for make bite.
Many country folk believe that an
ash tree will keep off snakes. A peas
ant couple were Mortified to find that
their baby shared its morning bowl of
milk with an adder. They tied an ash
twig round the child's neck, and the
snake never came near 1t again. But
the child pinned away and died, be-
moaning the loss of It's playfellow, of
which Ii had become very fond, says
London Tit-Bits.

To shoot sea gull, take II home

Ing water. This absolutely destroys
the fishy taste.
The young gulls can be eaten i'm,
mediately, or they can be hung in

favorite method, as 1t provides m

These smoked gulls are as delicious
as any game bird, while they are fat
