The Cherokee Indians' cure for the [te of a rattlesnake is at once so cointon sense and scientific as to merit a idespread acceptance. Its common mse lies in the fact that the victim as or ought to have the necessary nplement always at hand, there need ot be an instant's delay, and that it is le scientific plan goes without saying ecause it carries away the poison at tice. The Indian at once, when bitin, drawing his knife, pinched up the art bitten and cut it out, then, seeklg the nearest stream, not often very ir away, plunged the leg in the runIng water and kept it there until all leedihg had ceased and, as my inDrmant, an old man, told me, seldom uffered any ill effects.

The small child, seeing her mother examining with a clouded brow a bit ?f paper, inquired: "Is it a nice letter, mamma?" "No; it's a nasty big bill, dearie."

Even in the midst of horror there is jccasionally a rift of humor. It is said that at the time of the Johnstown 3ood a grocer to whom one of the citizens owed for an overlong time a good sized bill for provisions while floating along on the top of the waters in a raft made of two window blinds and a skylight caught sight of his delinquent Jebtor whirling around in one of the oools of the eddying curreut clinging to a large hogshead. "Ah, there you are!" cried the grocer, businesslike to the last. "Been looking for you for several days. When ire you going to pay that bill?" "Can't say just now.

A man just outside the orchestra rail leaned forward and. pointing to the score, remarked: "That was good work, old man, but you missed one place." "I did!" responded the drummer In surprise. "Why, I thought I played everything that came my way." "No," the other resumed, "you didn't do everything, and I saw the leader glance at you.
