Hearing a hissing sound, he looked around and sa-v tna reptile darting its head in a threatening manner toward him. He raided his gun and fired at it, but iaissed it and suddenly the snake uprang at him Losing his presence of mind, Mr. Lowman started to run He had not gone 20 steps before his foot became entangled in some brush and he fell to the ground. The rep tile overtook him and entwined itself about his body and began tightening itself upon him.

The amateur collector of curiosities generally baa on exaggerated Idea of the valno of his treasures. Ko sooner does he got hold of something which he considers nnlquo and interesting than be fancies that every museum in tbe country will jnmp at the chance of pur chasing it from him. With this idea he is continually calling upon museum keepers and trying to persuade them into exhibiting his so called rarities. The curator of a popular northern museum has been mnch worried hi this way during the last year or so. Only the other week a white haired old man came to him and showed him a dagger which was said to be the weapon used by King John in stabbing the boy Prince Arthur. Tbe dagger was quite a modern affair and showed no signs of age, bnt the old man stuck to his de scription strenuously. "My dear fellow," he said to the cu rator in patronizing tones, "if you are so blind to your own interests as to re- fuso this dagger, it is no concern of mine. It has been in our family for cen turies, and we are descended in a direct lino from Hubert do Bourg, tbe noble man who refused to allow Prince Ar thur's eyes to be burned out with red hot irons. I'll give you one more chance, and if you won't have it I'll take it elsewhere. ' Needless to say, he had to take it elsewhere. Another crank drove tip to the mu seum gate one afternoon on a dray, to which wkk stripped a big, cumbersome writing table. The curator hastened out to nu-ct hiin nnd was just in time to prevent him bringing the piece of furniture bodily into tho bull. On being uFkrd for an explanation, tho visitor said ho had decided to pre sent tho museum with a priceless treas ure in the shape of u writing table used by Sir Francis Bacon. Ho had been pre serving it for a long time, he said, in order tlr.it he might write its historr. which be bad at last completed in a manuscript volume of 820 sheet a Tbe curator, who is, of course, an expert, ' examined the denk and declared it to bo worthless. Tt h'--1 aucqreatlv been use a in a scnooiroom until it had got too rickety for service aud was then, dis pensed with. At any rate, it couldn't have been more than 70 years old. This report was communicated to the visit or, who thereupon took to raving like a madman and became so violent that he and his treasure had to be moved along by the police.' Royal relics are mnch in favor with amateur collectors, and, tbongh some of the curiosities submitted to the museum recently have been thought worthy of a place on the tables, tlio majority have proved to tw hope lets rnbbish.

"Clar to goodness, boss, ain't got ono iu do cyah.

So the porter took off his jacket and turned back his cuffs and weut to work. He tngscd and pulled and seesawed the boot back aud forth and perspired aud grunted, bnt tbo boot wouldn't move. Tbe drummer filled tho broach again. "I need to pull my grandfather's boots off sometimes wheu I was a boy. bo said. "Tell you how I did it. Turn rennd, " ho Kiiid to tho darky. Tho darky turned.

LEAN MEAT. It Sometime Contains a Much as Scn-ty-rlrlit IVr Cent of Water. Lean meat, it may surprise, many to learn, is much more watery than fat meat. This may be illustrated by tho statement that very lean meat may cou taiu as mnch as 78 per cent cf water, while very fat pork may contain only 10 per rent. The flesh of lish is more watery than ordinary butcher meat. Thus salmon contains five-eighths of its total weight of water, cod four-fifths and flounders six-sovenths Among the foods which may bo cited as containing but a small percentage cf water, and c ciiTquently ns dry U.c.d, aro flour and oatmeal, l.nd sugar is a food entirely devoid of it. Tim uuiuial body has oftru been aptly likened, t-u niachiueidJiicjiii-nrac'hiiies, It ra rnijrcs fg-j to jjppp n working. Now this fuel it obtains from the food which wo eat, and in default of food tbe ani mal tissue itrclf is drawn upon. Food, therefore, keeps the. animal tody warm and yields the mpscnlar energy necessary for the accomplishment cf the work whinh tho body dees. In this capacity the three classes cf food nutrients may all be concerned. The value of a food may bo estimated in terms cf tbe amount cf heat it will give rise to. The most concentrated food fuel is fat. Wlicu fat is burned, it gives rise to tvrico as much heat as is given by the burning of cither the albuminoids or the carbohydrates. Fattv foods, there fore, posses a much greater bearing value than nonfat ty foods. Philadel phia Times. 3fasel tho labrfca. .

Ancient Tnermopjrlah An officer of the English intelligence department reports that iu spite of the fact, which is well known, that the sea has receded since ancient times, the strategical position of this ancient pass is still immensely strong.

Very soon afterwards, A Sore two inches across formed and in walking to favor it I sprained my ankle. The sore became worse; I could not put my boot on and I thought I should have to give up at every step. I could not get any relief and had to stop work. I read of a cure of a similar case by Hood's SarsapariUa and concluded to try it. Before I had taken all of two bottles the sore had healed and the swelling had gone down. My is now well and I have been greatly bene fited otherwise. I have increased in weight and am in better health. I cannot say enough in praise of Hood's Sarsapa riUa." Mas. H. Blake, So. Berwick, Me.
