THE TOAD AND THE SNAKE.
Y/hereln the Fatrachian Shows Him
self as Wise as the Serpent.
The following snake story was told
some years ago by a reputable citi
zen of Anson county: 'Driving along
a public rosd one day ho saw a to-ad
fneg crossing the road at "top speed
—hitting only the high places and
lew of them. As the frog disappeared
In the bos-ky underbrush on ono Bide
,a black snake In hot pursuit made
Its appearance on the other. The
i*tory teller followed the two into
the 'bushes to seo what, the result
would be. He had proceeded only a
short distance when he found the
frog at bay, facing the snake and
'with the latter circling about In the
effort to make an attack from the
rear. His frogs':!p kept turning all
(the time, always facing the enemy.
Tho reason of this manoeu re on
the snake’s part was that tho fiog
had in its mouth, held crosswse and
about tho middle, a stick about tho
.size and length of a lead pencil. The
ifrog knew Ohe snake could not swal
llow him so long as ho presented such
a frent. iThe man watchod the per
formance for some time and when he
left the snake wa3 still circling the
frog and the latter faring Its enemy
on every turn. —Charlottevillo Observ

Woman Gets Rid of “Coffee Heart.”
The injurious action of Coffeo on
the heart of many persons is well
known by physicians to bo caused by
caffeine. This is a drug found by
chemists in coffee and tea.
A woman suffered a long time with
severe heart trouble and Anally her
doctor told hor sho must give up
coffee, as that was tho principal cause
of the trouble. She writes:
“My heart was so weak It could
not do its work properly. My hus
band would sometimes have to carry
me from tho table, and it would seem
that I would never breathe again.
“The doctor told me that coffee
was causing the weakness of my
heart. Ho said I must stop it, but
It seemod I could not give it up until
I was down in bed with nervous
prostration.
"For eleven weeks I lay there and
suffered. Finally Husband brought
home some Postum and I quit coffee
and started new and right. Slowly I
got well. Now I do not have any
headaches, nor those spells with weak
heart. We know it is Postum that
helped me. The Dr. said tho other
day, ‘I never thought you would be
what you are.’ I used to weigh 92
pounds and now I weigh 158.
"Postum has done much for me
and I would not go back to coffee
again for any money, for I believe it
would kill me If I kept at it. Po3tum
must bo well boiled according to di
rections on pkg., then it has a rich
flavour and with cream is fine.”

Tuberculosis Killed 78,289
Death Rate Declines in All Registrar
Nine Causes Are Most Frur
Out of Every 100 OccupiT, ’
25 and 34 Due to „
Washington, D. C. Health De
partment returns show the total num
ber of deaths from all forms of tuber
culosis returned in 1908 was 78,289,
exceeding those of any previous year
of registration, but the death rate per
100,000 for 1908 is less than that for
1907. In all registration States the
deaths from tuberculosis showed a
decline except in Colorado, Rhode Isl
and and Vermont.
Each of the following causes of
death was responsible for at least
5 000 deaths of male breadwinners
during the year: Typhoid fever, tu
berculosis of lungs, cancer, apoplexy
and paralysis, heart disease, pneumo
nia, Bright’s disease, suicide and ac
cident. The total number of deaths
of occupied persons from these causes
was, for males, 138,259, and for fe
males, 17,43 4. Of the deaths of occu
pied males, 29,433, or 15 per cent.,
were due to tuberculosis of the lungs,
and of the occupied females, 5511, or
21 per cent., were due to the same
cause.
In the registration area of the Uni
ted States during the year 1908, 30.9
deaths out of every 100 deaths of oc
cupied males who died between the
ages of 25 and 34 years were caused
by tuberculosis of the lungs, or nearly
one death out of every three. During
the same age period 41.9 per cent, of
the bookkeepers, clerics and copyists,
40.1 per cent, of the barbers and hair
dressers, 40.9 per cent, of the ser
vants, 44.1 per cent, of the hoot and
shoe makers, 49.2 per cent, of the
compositors, printers and pressmen,
41.2 per cent, of the tailors and 25.6
per cent, of the farmers who died in
the registration area during 1908

The destitution and absence o£
work for the unemployed is
in practically all of the manufacturing!
cities and towns in the United King
dom. A striking feature of the situa
tion is that the men seeking work are
for the most part in the very prime of
life.
Plans are being considered where
by the employers and the working
men may be brought closer together.
The Government also is seeking to
discover some means of cutting off
the supply of unskilled and unintelli
gent labor by training boys to enter
regular and permanent work.
