Science Uses
Snake Venom

Snake venom, blood-chilling as
pect of nature, has been harnessed
by science.
Thanks to scientific research,
the venom Of cobras and other
deadly reptiles is now used in the
treatment of such diseases as an
gina pectoris, leprosy, palsy and
cancer, according to an article in
the May issue of Science Illus
trated, new science magazine.
"When a cobra bites man, its
venom paralyzes him, causing
death by asphyxiation when the
paralysis reaches his respiratory
centers," the article states in part.
"But when q doctor injects cobra
venom into the human system (be-
ing careful not to use too much),
the neurotoxin acts as a pain
killer. Because it &c 20: habit
forming, as are many modern
drugs used for this purpose. cobra
venom has been found useful for
controlling pain in various dis
eases"
Incidentally, if you should be
so unfortunate as to be bitten by
a snake, and nothing happens in
the next ten minutes, you can be
sure it wasn't a poisonous snake.
To be on the safe side, however, it
is advisable to take every precan-
ton even before ascertain ng
whether or not the snake Is poll
