When he found a stiski rolled ready for Us spring he would throw ti,k at It nrt.1 Irrlintn It Into leplns;. Then hp would coolly niash the reptile's head with hi heel. H Id that he got no satlsfsrtlon from hooting; them or slaying thrm with a club. The rattlesnake goes blind In July for a little while and In at that time especially venomous. In July.lSCS, Keener found a larRe one near hU father's hotine and stamped It as usual. He seized It by the tall and started In to the house to show It to his father. The snake wait not quite dead. It twUted In his hand, Its managed head rame In contact with his right thigh, near the hip, and It burled Its fangs la Ms fleKh. The wound was treated with ammonia, the young man drank a lot of whisky, and apparently was llttlo the worse for the bite. Ten days aft erward the skin around the wound be gan to darken and In a little while was a bluish black. This shade extended over his body and up and down his , limbs. It ascended to the neck and ( thence to his face. For while tha lower part of his face was black nd the remainder white. When Kessner died the black shade had ascended to the roots of his hair, and but for hit qulllne features he would have been taken at first glance for a negro. Dur ing all this time he was tormented with racking pnlns In his limbs, sim ilar to rheumatic twinges, and was al so troubled with Insomnia. The pains grew worse as time went on, and Just before his death they were almost un endurable, i THE PAROT IN TRADE. rd hj a, Collsetor to llawl I'rrtliient Thing About Debt. "No use to dun 'em! No use to dun 'em! They're dead beats!" These words, uttered In shrill, piercing tones, attracted a crowd In the vicinity of Lincoln park. A well-dressed young man emerged from the vestibule of a residence, where he had been convers ing with a woman, and rushed down the steps to a covered buggy In front of the house. "No use to dun 'cm! No use to dun 'em! They'rs dead beats!" "Quiet, Tolly! Shut your mouth," cried the young man as he removed from the seat of the vehicle a large rage containing a particularly vicious looking parrot. After several times repeating Its uncomplimentary protests the bird finally subsided and Its mnster reaseended the jteps to the vestibule, from which he soon emerged with some bank notes In bli hand. "It's an original scheme of rny own," explained the young man a little later, "and I'll explain the scheme If you keep It mum. Sometime ago I was con nected with an agency that employed uniformed collectors and yellow wog ens.object being to Intimidate the debt or, who would pay a Just bill rather than be disgraced by having self ad vertising bad debt collectors calling upon him evory day. After time legal proceedings were taken by a disgusted Onhtor who had been persistently an noyed, and the wagons and uniforms were promptly suppressed. Hut art Oeadbeats to escape paying their Jut dues on that account? 1 thought not, and recently devised the plan I am no carrying Into execution, People whose names are on the blacklist are gencr ally shrewd enough to understand thi situation and a settlement la at once made or arranged for, I have ben operating for over a month, and In but one instance has Polly been cnllcd upon to repeat her well rehearsed act, I am told that complaints have been made to the poll'e and I must make bay while the aun shines, Oood day.' "Ily-by! I'm a bird, I am!" shrlekcl the parrot, as the enterprising collec tor drove briskly away.

There Is some reason for calling an owl the bird of wisdom; and yet there Is cause for wondering If the crow la not mentally his superior, says I.ljipln cott's. Crows are not disheartened by the gloom of late autumn. If the fog Is too dense to fly through It they rlrto above It or trot about the ground, dis cussing the situation with their fel lows. Is thin speaking too positively? I have been long femlllar with an ob serving man who has lived all his days within sight and hearing of crows, lie claims to understand their language and can repeat the "words" that make up their vocahulary, Cer tainly crows seem to talk; but do they? Does a certain sound made by them have always the one significance? Year after year I have listened and watched, watched and listened, and wondered If my friend was right. He believes It. I believe It almost, Are there limitations to ornithological In terpretotlon? And la this an Instance where truth la unattainable? We know that crows are cunning and by their mother wit have withstood the perse cutions of mankind; we know that they have a wide range of utterances, and not one la put forth merely to gratify the ear, as In the ruse of a thrnsh'i song; yet we hesitate to any plainly that crow talkcih unto crow and that they take counsel together, There la no physical or metaphyseal reason why this should not be the case; there la abundant evidence point Ing In that direction, but no actual demonstration, satisfying every one, has taken place, Were we less theory, ridden and more observant the nucv tlon would have been settled before this, In auch a case the opinion of the farmer Is worth more than that of the professional ornithologist, Ill Head. A passenger on a Cunsrd steamohlp had an experience which led her to be lieve that a aeaman is not apt to WHst.e many thoughts on his personal trou bles. The sailor who brought her to thla opinion had a fall which resulted In a bad cut on the head, the second day out. Bhe wae solicitous In her In quiries as to tola welfare when aha aaw the captain that night, and would un doubtedly have continued her sympa thy had not a rough sea called to mind her own sufferings, fine days later, when she emorged, white and wenk, from her stateroom, she anddenly re membered the poor sailor. In Hi" course of the day she saw him, with a strip of plaster on his forehead, "llow Is your head?" she asked, kindly, as he paseed by her bent on some duty. "West by south, ma'am," was the re ply, delivered with respectful but hasty clearness, and he was gone. Many !' of the llsnsns. Immense fortunes have been mad out of the banana business.

Wear woolen, cotton or silk stockings, ac cording to your comfort. If the fe't are prone to be dry as well as cold they should be soaked In hot water for ten minutes every night, thoroughly dried and rubbed with a small quan tity of sweet oil, bestowing special at tention upon the soles. Nothing that csn keep the feet comfortable should be considered a trouble, as, aside from the fact of their affecting the physical condition, their relation to the nerves must be considered. Trouble with the feet means a nerve-wearing strain. The following baa sometimes proved a simple cure for cold feet: Btand erect and gradually lift yourself to the tlpa of the toes, coming to the natural po altlon In the same easy manner. He peat this exercise several times each day and the circulation of the blood must be Improved. Diet has some thing to do with the degree of Improve ment, and afflicted women are advleod to shun much salted meat, pies and rich puddings." JUBAL A. EARLY'S JULBP. Tamirsne Comnientsrjr hf Vanes of North Carolina. Nearly a quarter of a century ago, as all old and middle-aged persons will remember, the religious temperance women of the north organized a move ment against the saloons, which as sumed large propor'lons and took the form of a veritable crusade. It Invad ed almost every city and large town, bands of enthusiastic women going from saloon to saloon praying and singing In every place where they could secure permission. Whllo the crusade of the "praying sisters" wss at It height that stanch old rebel, Jubal A. ICarly, visited Klchmond, Va., for tha first time since the close of the civil war. "In the hotel," said he to ths writer, "I met my old friend, Governor Vance of North Carolina, since t:n!t"i States senator. Although I was not the governor of floulh Carolina. Vance suggested that It had been a long time fifteen yeara In our case between drinks, and we went In quest of a Ju lep, 'fleneral,' said he, after remark ing that Virginia wss the place for Ju leps, 'have you read how the women of the north are trying to destroy the Honor traffic by praying In the sa loons?' I told him that I had, when he asked: 'Do you believe It'a true? 1 have an Idea that It's only a joke of the yankee newspapers.' I told him that It was true, that a friend of mine bnd witnessed the rather unique proceeding In Columbus, 0. 'Where do they get their authority, general? For the life of me I ran't understand.' 'They pro fess to get It from the bible,' I replied. 'Now look here, Rarly,' he responded very earnestly, 'as a boy and young man I was a pretty regular Sunday school scholar, and the only Instance In the bible that I can recall where any one ever asked for water was a poor devil In hell, where I think he rightly belonged.' " I'roper Way, "Abner," asked the wife of the ed itor of the Plunkvllle Bugle, looking up from her latest "take," "don't yoil think It la a sin for you to write those Washington dispatches right here In the office?" "No, I don't," stoutly re sponded the editor. "I have always been taught that the way to get a thing done right la to do It yourself," Ex. FUttensd. Young Mrs. Torklns was almost In tears when her husband came home. "What's the matter?" Inquired her husband. "It wasn't my fault, Char ley, dear, and I do hope It can be mended.
