SERPENT EATING SNAKE.
A VenomouN Kept lie Tlint Will Al
tiu-U Man or Beaxt.
The serpent rating sujike, or king of
serpents (Ophiophagus elapst found in
Burma, is among the most interesting
of our venoiihuis snakes and tlie only
really aggressive member of tiie ophid
ians. readily attacking any man or
animal that happens its way. The
female is especially irritable during
the season of i:. iitication. and an
adult snake attains a length of from
twelve to fifteen feet, is superlatively
swift and active and possesses a poison
fang three inches in length and charg
ed with a very powerful venom. It
will be admitted that Opliiophagus
claps. Xaia bungarus or serpen tivore.
as it is also called, is a foe that had
better be avoided.
While being neither an arlwreal nor
a water snake, the Ophiophagus claps
climbs trees with facility and takes to
water readily, swimming with great
ease and skill. Its poison is as deadly
in its effect as that of the lesser hooded
snake (the Ophiophagus chips also car
ries a lioodi. the cobra, but it is believ
ed that the action of the venom is not
quite so rapid.
The shortest period within which it
proved fatal to a fowl was -fourteen
minutes, while a dog expired in two
hours and eighteen minutes. Nichol

| Why Suffer From Rheumatism?
[ Why suffer from rheumatism
j when one application of Chamber
lain 's Pain Balm will relieve the
pain? The quick relief which this
liniment affords makes rest and
sleep possible, and that alone is
worth many times its cost. Many
who have used it hopmg only for
a short relief from suffering have
been happily surprised to find that
after awhile the relief becomes
permanent. Mrs. V. H. Leggett
of Yum Yum, Tenn., U. S. A.,
writes: "I am a great sufferer
from rheumatism, all over from
head to foot, and Chamberlain's
Pain Balm is the only thing that
will relieve the pain." For sale

BREAKING THE NEWS
It was a ditticult situation. To be
sure, Marcella bad not actually flirted
with Ackley Henderson. Sue refused
to Include the verb In her well bred vo
cabulary, but thpn?
Men are so queer, so apt to think that
one means things when really one is
actuated only by ordinary courtesy aud
the gayety of the moment and cheer
fulness toward the world in general.
When a man calls very regularly, is
that any reason why a girl should con
sider him in love with her? It would
be abominable conceit, Marcella as
sured herself indignantly as she twist
ed up her hair. Why, dozens of men
had called on her in the last five years,
and only three or four had asked her to
marry them. Each of these men had
seemed surprised when she refused.
Therefore why should she worry for
fear Ackley Henderson would take it
badly and think himself ill treated
when he learned she was engaged to
an eastern man? The wedding was set
for June, and Marcella felt that she
must break the news. She told herself
that she would do it that very evening
and was surprised to find herself turn
ing to lee at th^-Lli ought.
She stared at Iky own face sternly in
the glass. It was not that she had a
lingering fear lest she eared for Ack
loy_not a hit of It! The man down
east had all her heart, but she did like
Aekley Immensely In a friendly fash
ion and dreaded his displeasure. .Tu4t
why should she think he cared for her?
She demanded a reply as she fiercely
searched for another shell hairpin. lie
had never said anything, but then
words were not always necessary. On
ly a week ago, when she had been play
ing at the piano, on turning suddenly
she had caught his gaze fixed on her
with such open tenderness that the
blood had rushed to her face. lie had
carried it off well by asking in the
next breath some irrelevant question,
but it had started her to thinking.
Really it was too bad of Ackley. He
was such a reserved, odd person that
one never could tell -what he was going
to do next. lie never confided in his
friends, though apparently he was free
and open.
She scan-lied her memory sharply.
Had she ever given him the slightest
right to fancy she was especially at
tracted by him? Of course she had
been interested in his yachts and his
theories on the proper way to drive a
horse and his favorite books, but that
was only what ordinary politeness call
ed for. If one did not talk to a man
about the tilings in which he was in
terested. what 011 earth would become
of conversation?
Marcella jabbed in the last pin and
straightened her side combs, and just
then the bell rang. Heaving a long
sigh, she went down to greet Ackley
Henderson. He was so particularly
happy and cheerful tonight that it made
her task doubly hard. How should she
begin? She could not plunge into the
subject abruptly? she wanted to glide
into it gracefully and by degrees-hut
somehow she could not manage the con
versation. And all the while Ackley
sat beaming joyously at her.
Marcella shivered. She wished she
could remember a few times when she
had been rude to him? the memory
would brace her up-but there was j
j nothing but unremitting and gracious |
kindness on her part in the hateful j
past. She wondered if he would tell her i
what he thought of her when she told
him of her engagement or whether lie
would take It quietly and go away and
brood over it. She didn't know which
would be worse.
She chattered fluently on everything ;
j under the sun, but at last talk ran
slow. Silence fell. Marcella felt it j
was now or never. She leaned forward .
| and fingered the paper cutter lying at |
her hand and spoke in a low voice, j
She did not look at him.
"I'm going to tell you something. ?
Ackley." she said. She could feel that |
he was all attention instantly. "I?
perhaps I should have told yon? told
people some time ago. but I? well, I
didn't. I? you've met Bob Van Puy
ster of New York? I'm going to marry
him in June." She ended with a rush.
After an instant she raised her eyes ?
bravely to meet his stricken face. Then j
she stareil in blank amazement, for
Ackley Henderson was smiling surpris- j
edly. delightedly. j
"Why. I'm greatly pleased." he cried j
heartily. "I>e Puyster is a fine chap.
I'm glad to herfr It. And I might as i
well tell you there's a girl down in St.
Louis that is going to be Mrs. Hender- j
son next fall, and your profile and hers
are identical. Every time I look at you
I'm- reminded of her, though, of course. I
! you're not alike."
Marcella was speechless. For one
: mortal hour she had to sit and listen to '
the praises of another girl sung into
her astonished and reluctant ears and
smile as though she liked it. Her own
engagement lie apparently dismissed
from his mind. He was about the fur- i
thest from a heartbroken man one
would care to see. - i
Yet when Marcella took down her
1 hair that night she broke three of the
shell pins because she wa? thinking to
hard and indignantly.
Girls, there is no doubt, are queer.?

There is a Difference.
The difference between Kenne-i
dy's Laxative Honey and Tar and
all other cough syrups is that it
moves the bowels, thus expelling
a cold from the system. This re
laxes the nerve tissues and by its
healing and soothing effect on the
throat and lungs the cough is re
lieved ? cured entirely. Kenne
dy's is the original laxative honey ;
and tar. It contains no opiates. !

This is a very homely subject, but
one that is much neglected.
In hot weather tbe dishcloth should
have particular care. It should be i

and as often as the dish towels. Have i
two? one to wash china with, the other 1
for pans, etc. After using hang where ;
they will dry quickly. Scald in hot i
pearl ine water at least once during thn
week.

sometimes is yvholly due to foul and |

Remedy the Very Best.
"I have been using Chamber- j

say it is the best cough medicine
I have ever taken," says Geo. L.

its being the best, as it will cure
a cough or cold in less time than
any other treatment It should
always be kept in the house ready

cured in much less time when
promptly treated. For sale by
