ta undor a commission from t'io Argen

ence which prompted him to eternal
Vlgilan-o in regard ta s -alcttS, Ho was,

claso hy. Huddenty - ho notljcd

AVhat should he do? 'To wako tho rain
nieaut certain death to him, but how
o kill tho creature or attract it away
"without waking him?
Ho recalled n nuthod of capturing
tho cobra of India. Ho prepared a
lip-knot, lly stealthy, almost imper
ceptible iuovomants he attracted tho
serpent's attention. It turnod its
head. Uo cast tlo nooso over it, and
drew It tight around thoroptllo's nek;.
It wart not a moment too soon. Tho
sergeant nwoko. Ho falntod with

Blip-knot had suved him, and tho stroko
of tho Babcr. cut offi tho scrpont's head.

In the coursoof his long tight against
slavery Ooneral Hawley and his oM
friend, John Hooker, had on cxporit
" ence which Is probably unlquo among
Vow England citizens. Hawley bought
and Hooker owned a doctor of, divinity.
A scholarly colored man, James Pi n
nlngton, who had nvt'lved at Hcidoli
berg the degree of D. D., was settled
pver the TalcottStreetchurch In Hnrt
tort, Conn. It came out that ho
ran away from slavery wlon a boy.
lie was "owned" at the South, and
when tho fugitivo slave law was passed
there was danger of his capture and
servitude. 8q Lawyer Jqj Hawley
went to his owners, for Mr. Hookor,
bought this doctor of divinity and
brought Mr. Hooker back tho bill of
fcalo. Mr. Hooker tried for a day tho
Reeling of owning n, minister and than
put on record in tho town clerk's ofllce
deed giving tho Itev. Dr. James Pen
nington tho ownorshlp of himself.

t The Dos and tlia Watch.
A youngjady had a beautiful gold.
watih of which, she was unduly proud.
Tlio time-piece was exhibited on vari-
xous occasions, and a fow days agc
Vhen toino admiring friends ver ox-
jtminlng it, tho watch accidentally
flipped from their fingers. A cry of
-dkmay went up whon tho party saw
rho watch disappear with a gulp in
the yawning mouth of a dog which sat
pt their foot, looking expectantly up--vard
and good-naturedly Wgging its,
stall. Toor doggie imagined that he
iud nvcived a choice morsel, and
"looked pleased with his feat of catch-
irg it ou he fly, but prveH to b(,

Upat.!hed, and at the post-mortem
the watch was recovered, none the

Sir Joseph Fayror, who is the great
est living authority on the subject of i
snake bites, holds that a person suffer- i
'ns from snake poison is practically
4ying "uexvous exhaustion," an4
Consequently when" tha victim, is forced

throw off by perspiration the poison
that has been absorbed in his system,
his end s in reality being hastened;,
perspiration &huld be induced by a

out of the system. Sir Joseph Foyrer's
experience leads to the conclusion that
