It has been pointed out by Dr. Bou din that the worship of the serpent was so universal in antiquity that all temples v::le to be knowu as "dra conia" (serpent houses). However that may be. serpents were kept in many of the temples of an tiquity. notably in those of Apollo. whose son. Aesculapius. is represented in ancient statuary carrying a serpent intwined round a staff or round his arm. The serpent. indeed, came in time to be the special mystical emblem or sym bol of the Aesculapian art. I The serpents of the ancient Greek temples were in all probability relics of that primitive serpent worship which was at one time universal among prehistoric peoples and has not died out among many savage races at the present day. I And "voodoo," or "obi," serpent wor ship is still said to linger in the West Indies among the descendants of slaves. In Haiti especially, where negroes were dumped down from Africa by the old slave traders and were kept In re serve before being sold to masters in 'the surrounding islands, voodoo has defied Roman Catholic missionaries and priests for ages. A French naval officer who visited the court of the Haitian potentate Soulongue in 1S49 described a voodoo ceremony where cannibalistic and other orgies were in dulged in. It is noticeable that the cock and black goat which were solemnly eaten on this occasion were both of them sacred to Aesculapius. Hence we may Infer that the Aesculapian cultus was originally an innocent foim of voodoo and at the same a primordial religion. The extreme antiquity of serpent worship seems, indeed, to be hinted at in Genesis, where the devil appears in the guise of the' snake god intent on the ruin of man. In the story of the brazen serpent healing qualities are attributed to the image.-Lancet. The Remedy That Does. "Dr. King's New Discovery is the remedy that does the healing others promise but fail to perform." says Mrs. E. R. Pierson, of Auburn Centre, Pa. "It is curing me of throat and lung trouble of long standing, that other treatments reliered only temporarily. New Discovery Ff doing me so much good that I feel confident its continued use for a reasonable length of time will restore me to perfect health."
