" , V Rnttlcnnnko Cure " "Do you see that mun passing so care fully through the crowd there ? " said a police ofllcor to TUB Ben yesterday afternoon. A heavy sot , red faced man was pointed out. Ills hands were clasped and hold carefully in front of his ponderous stomach , as If con sciously guarding It from assault. ' \Voll , ho's ' Investigating euro that boats the elixir for novelty , at least , altnough It will never bo as popular as that craze. He's got a live rattlosnnKa celled up under his llaimel shirt. I just saw it a moment ago , thrusting Us ugly bond out of its hiding ilacc. It's a vicious looking reutilo eighteen inches long , nnd has ono rattle and a button. The fellow is carrying it foru purpose that t should think would surely bo accomplished to correct a tendency to obesity. Ho has been getting excessively fleshy for the pnit few months , and un old Gypsy recommended the rattlesnake euro. For u consideration she guaranteed him absolute relief If ho fol lowed her instructions , and her mandate waste to carry that venomous serpent under his shirt next to the skin during warm weather. 'Carrying n live rattlosnnko In a fellow's bosom during dog days would raakn n skele ton of Jumbo , and 1 utn not surprised when ho Informs mo that ho has lost fourteen pounds in the lust wool : . No , its not a fake. I saw the stiiilto twice within the last twenty minutes once when ho tenderly took It out of his bosom und laid It on u table , and but a moment ago when It protruded its head from the folds of his snlrt. Ho pots it and handles it very tcndorl.v , and It sooins to bo very well contented with its home. When belaid it on the tabln it scorned anxious to return to its hiding plnco and started to get there , by crawling up his sleeve. Ho claims Its funga are not drawn , but I believe they nro. " The man Is a well known character about town and has recently figured in cases in the district court. AH faltish ns the story ap peals , Tin ; BSD reporter verified It , and found that the mun has actually be < m carry ing the venomous reutilo in his bosom for several weeks as a Gypsy fottien against a corpulent tendency. The only danger ho fears is some ono rudely rubbing against the reptile and making it bite him while angry. C. B. steam dyu works , 1013 Broadway.

"Have you over noticed , " said a con ductor on a West End street car to a writer in the Boston' Globe , ' 'how women eye women as they got on the carsi1 They seem to take notice of every pai-ticle of dress , the shape of the bonnet and the style of the hair , in one aharp fjlance. I've seen it constantly on my car. Tho.v all do it , youiif , ' and old , and its done in such a supercilious manner , ns if envy was the cause. Now I think it's a very olfctibivo manifesta tion of bad breeding , and I don't think any kind-hearted woman would indulge it it. " "Well , does the 'eyeing , ' as you call it , continue long ? " "Oh , no ; it's none in an instant. The car stops and a .lady gets on or off , and immediately every woman's eye is turned in that direction , and at ono sweep every detail is taken in , often with a derisive smile or a curl of the lip. I am sure few people who travel , and are observing' , can have failed to notice this paeuliar feature of women's treatment of.women. . . It is especially seen when the now comer happens to bo stylishly dressed , or ia remarkable for any beauty of face or ugliness of form , anil it is done in n very marked manner when a shahbily dressed woman is in question. Then you will &eo a grim smile and a shrug of the shoulders ns the eyeing is done. " "Don't you imagine it's ddno else where than on the cars1" "Lord , yes. I am told it's done by women as they pass each other in the street , and by all conditions of wotnon , who cover each other from head-gear to shoestring. " "Haven't you seen it in men ? " "Well , not so much. At least , I think it is a peculiarly feminine weak ness. " . Pears' is the purest and best soap over made. A Grand CoiTun Pnlaco.
