dried adders are practically the only
drug used by the peasants. When
any member of peasant family
suffers from chills or fevers, he is
given tea prepared from pieces Of
the dried adder boiled in ralnwater
for ten minutes. Village druggists
stock up quantities of dried adder at
the end of every summer.
In the foothills of the Alps, viper
brandy is favored for chills. Physi-
clans admit that the, serpent teas do
produce perspiration, which is often
beneficial in the early stages of some
diseases. Until as late 40 1884, the
viper was rated in the official pharm-
acopaeia as an authorized medicine.
At one time the medicinal use of
snakes was almost universal in Eu-
rope and old books tell Of many
astonishing cures obtained through
the use of lizards. But slowly the
faith has been stamped out, except
in the most backward of French
provinces.
In starting their campaign, the
prominent physicians point out that
often the dried snakes are treated in
an insanitary manner and thus real
ly spread diseases.

by fifteen railroad labor organiza
tons with q membership Of about
million, and it circulates among these
men.
Scope Broadened
Seven years ago 1t was established
to spread information about the
Plumb plan. Later its scope was
broadened and it is devoted to In
forming railroad men what Congress
and the President are doing, and
what Is happening elsewhere in the
world, of particular interest to labor.
The paper has never received paid
advertising. The workers them
selves acted as ciculation depart
ment. One man alone got 1000 s@-
scriptions for the paper.
100000 Home
Labor was able, at price Of 50
a, year, to publish weekly, to build
up a 100000 home across from the
Capitol, and to establish an emer-
gency fund after the building cost
had all been paid.
For a number of years past Labor
has issued special editions during po-
litical campaigns, and sent them into
States where it's organizations wished
to elect candidates, but this years
record was the most ambitions ever
attempted:
Labor issued ten special editions
this year. each for circulation in
one State only, and each devoted to
the roerits of one candidate. The
expense of mailing and expressing
the papers was borne by Labor, and
railroad men distributed the papers.
No other person contributed to the
cost.
Edition to Alaska
About 500 900 copies Of Labor went
into Iowa to aid Brookhart. Nearly
as many went to Massachusetts in
behalf of, Walsh. A million copies
were sent into Pennsylvania in an
effort to elect William B. Wilson to
the Senate.
An edition was even sent to Alaska
to help Dan Sutherland in his fight
for reelection as delegate, and was
successful.
In three cases Labor did not &C.
complish it's purpose. The California
edition was late, and only 100000
copies were sent out. 1t failed to
put over John B. Elliott against
Sam Shortridge. The Pennsylvania
edition was unsuccessful, and so was
one sent to Minnesota in behalf Of
Magnus Johnson, candidate for gov
ernor.'
7 In the other States Labor's candi-
dates were successful. A number Of
them have publicly acknowledged
the effectiveness of the Labor sup
port.
