Chicago News. + There are four kinds of venomous serpents in the United States--the rat- tlesnake proper, the copperhead and . moccasin, the coral snake and the The diamond rat tlesnake and the copperhead are | the most deadly. The former is undoubt from snake poisoning than any other in the United States... This is due to its large size--it grows noteinfrequently to seven feet in length and three in- in diameter--and to the great of its fangs and the copious amount of venom it inject into wounds. Probably not more than fifty persons die of snake bit in the United States in any vear. Perhaps thirty thousand would be a fair esti mate of the world's annual death rate from the 'bite of venomous snakes, notwithstanding the long and prac tically fruitless efforts of to discover an antidote. ches length selence The late Duke of Sutherland is said to have left ninety-two wills, mi A Signora Eleanora Duse, the great Italian actress, diffems from many of her associates in at least one respect --she does not seek publicity.

Noteworthy among the surprising discoveries made by the Peabody Mu- seum recent expedition in' "'eatral Am- {erica was that of a magnificent hicro- elyphic stairway at Copan, unearthed by George R. Gordon. From its design and workmanship is considered the gpreat- est architectural feature that has vet been brought to light in this celebrat- ed prehistoric city. This new find has revealed two important facts. The an- tiquity of Copan is pushed Lack to a greater period than was supposed, as the stairway bears an inscription over 700 years earlier than any in- scription yet found on any existing monument. . Also the inscription with which the stairway was decorated iy the ingest hieroglyphic one that has heen met with ~among the Maya ruins. Frag- ments of sculpture mingling with the ruins show that the stairway belong- ed to a temple undoubtedly the most imposing building in Copan or in all ancient America. The stairway extended from a piaz za terrace to the top of the mound, distance of 125 feet, and was 26 feet wide. Every foot of it was covered with elaborate sculptures. and hiero olvphic inscriptions. These ave de- ciphered, and, it is thought, will vield valuable new information in regard to this prehistoric city and people. Your Mission.

Dr. Zava, a well-known collector, recently purchased from a captain in the Italian army an old painting which was so dilapidated and begrim ed with smoke that it was impossible for him to discever the signature of the painter or to learn what was painted on the canvas. Consequently, he askéd Prof. "Tonelli, an expert, to restore it, and as a re- sult the signature, "Pier P. V. Gino," which stands for Pier Pitt or Vanucci Perugino, was found on it, When the captain heard that the old | painting which he had sold was © a | genuine Perugino he wanted to buy | it back for 400 francs, the sum which | Dr. Zava had paid for it, but the lat- ter refused to let him have it, and the case is now being tried in court. | Modern Maidens.

Newspapers, periodi- cals, books old and new=all present themselves to him in their proper per- spective; they are all grist to his mill, but they do nbt go into the same hopper or requirei the same process. Un the contrary, one of the main distinctions of the clever read- er is that without varying as to im- tensity, he varies almost indefinitely as to pace. This power of reading tlexibly comes mainly, of course, with practice. For those who have lacked an early experience of books the man- ipulation of them is never likely to become the perfect and instinctive pro- cess of adjustment which it should be. A certain increase of facility, howev, er, the belated reader may surely ex- pect to gain from some sort of ob- servance of this simple principle of adjustment. : This anxious but unskilled reader is too likely to have a set gait, so many words to the minute, or lines to the hour. An essay, an editorial, a chapter in a novel or in the Bible, a scientific article, a short story, if they contain the same number of words, take up just the same amount of this misguided person's time. No wonder reading becomes an incubus to him, with the .appalling monotony of its procession of 'printed words fill endlessly before ° him. He really has time enough, if he knew how to make use of it. "Eben Holden" keeps him busy for a week 'or more; it should be read in a few hours. He plods methodically through Sir Walter and finds him slow; the happv reader who can get Quentin and his Isabelle' satisfactorily married in six hours does not. The trained reader re-ad- justs his focus for each objective. Mil- ton may be read in words or lines, Macaulay in sentences, Thackeray in paragraphs, Conan Dovle in paves. The eye, that is, readily gains the power of taking in words in groups instead of separately. How large a group the glance can manage varies with the seriousness of the subject. Wealth And Wages. According to the statistics tabulat- ed by Sir Robert Giffen, the wealth of Great Britain and Ireland amounted in 1812 to. 160 pohnds sterling per head, and in 1885 to 270 pounds ster- ling per head. That this advance was not due to the enrichment of' the rich, attended by the impoverishment of the poor, but benefited all classes, is evi- dent from the fact that from 18407 to 1900 the average wages of the com- mon workman rose from forty-three to 100, or about 133 per cent. The fact that compassion for poverty finds stronger and more frequent expression with us than with our ancestors and that more persistent and systematic efforts are made to relieve it, is not due to its greater prevalence, but to the clearer perception of its evils, the wrevalence of a higher standard of Bris a more correct conception. of what is necessary to human comfort, and stronger sympathy with all forms of suffering. Ballooning As A Cure. New York Medical Record. Dr. Naugier, of Paris, in a paper read at 'a recent meeting of the Aca- demie de Medicine, made astonishing claims as to the tonic and blood- forming effects of balloon ascensions, A two hours' voyage in the air, he de- clared, causes a marked increase in the number of red corpuscles, and the condition persists for ten days ascension. Five such ascensions in the course of six or seven weeks, he said, are more beneficial to an an aemic than a sojourn of three months in the mountains. © The good effect be gins to be felt almost immediately, and a lengthened stay in the air is of no value, and in the case of many is actually detrimental in causing ner vous irritation.

You don't find [them in the East but out in Califor nia, where the weather is always mild, they are raised in large numbers and at stated periods suffer the indignity of having their feathers pulled out and shipped to Eastern merchants. Seventeen vears ago Edwin Caws ton, of Pasadena, Cal., took it into his head that the thrifty South Afri cans had top long had a monopoly of the ostrich business. It occurred to | him that if he could establish a farm in California it would be a' much bet | ter scheme than raising fruit or. in ranching, particularly as ostrich 'fea { thers were selling at a good, round figure in this country, thanks to the twenty per cent duty upon them. 3 After thinking the matter out Mr. Cawston quietly charted a ship and set sail for South Africa.

Since then the farm has thrived, and now the forty-two have increased to ten times that number, and their feathers are among the finest that come to the market. - It is no gasy matter to take care of ostriches: They are at time vicious and can kick with such force that the kickee thinks a" tem storey. building has fallen on him.
