The Parel'laboratory, Bombay, keeps a sup- j ply'of cobras from waich venom is ex tracted every ten days. The snakes are forcibly fed with egg flip through a tube. The venom is dried over lime and then dissolved in a snlt solution. 1 Increasing doses are injected in a horse until at the end of two years tl>e ani mal can stand a dose 12- 3 times the original one and is quite immune fjjpm the cobra poison. The scrum from the blood of this particular horse is an antidote and is absolutely effective if injected in time. Many lives have been saved by its use. However, each bite requires an antidote made from the venom of the same sort of snake that inflicted the bite. 1 I Printing Perfection Is Our Aim MO one has ever been dissatisfied with an order exe cuted by our Job Department.
