All After Him Now When old John linrloycorn, who had licU! his throne ever r.iiiee our I'tlHm fathers U.ok n nip from a iJilUe i.iu; iii(rniii(! they landed on the Mayflower, licxitii lo slip, llio old ruli! of kick him while he goes down workt-d woll. And it is still working:. One La Grande man recently said no never knew of imythinjf that hud as many friends in . private and enemies in public as John Barleycorn- Very true, J nit just the same tho kicking process continues. ;' ' TaH-lieurois of delusions are 1 requested to step for , ward and help bury another generally accepted idea, now exploded as false. Whisky is not good for snake bite, an nounces Dr. Gilbert Vander Smisstn, specialist in treating cntlenien who have thoughtlessly stepped on metiers, cop Hrheads, water moccasins and other luvcahle pets. In fact, says Dr. Smissen, a quart of rye or Scotch is apt to lessen rather than promote tho victim's chances of re covery. Other scientists Ixick up Dr. Smissen's views. They have been carrying on investigations started by tho jiiazilian institute of serum therapy. Science thus vindicates the legal mling, a few months ago, by Judge J. C. Mutcheson of the federal court in session at Corpus Christi, Texas. A gentleman on trial , fop violating the Volstead act . were numerous and active in wus considered necessary to have a Imttle- of hooch on hand. The judge said he, too, had been brought up on the theory that whisky was good for snake bite ,but that l'ie idea has no longer any standing. A heart stimulant hastens circulation of poison through the body. He added: '"Two hundred and fifty dollars and costs!" Like many other evils, snake bite is not as dangerous iis generally believed. The average mortality from Ameri can venomous serpenta is only a little more than 10 out of. 100 peiisons bitten, according to tho government's biolog ical suivey. Most snakes, the survey adds, skeedaddle at the approach of man- And their striking distance is (illy about three-fourths of their length. Good-bye, oldest of John Barleycorn's i.libis! Make 'Em Over .... In those quiit August days occasionally men talk who wldom Uilk during any other part of the year. He was a window dresser n a La Grande department store who delivered thin lecture on the wax figure the other day: The haughty stare from the wax figure in the dry Koods store window has a purpose. Milady must look serenely proud, that the gorgeous gown or smart frock 1 lint graces her superb lines may not ho out of haimony. Hut all the .short-sighted men. who have tried to flirt with the wax model will enjoy this one comforting hit of news: The cold hut alluring beauty is a slave of fashion, and with the advent of longer skirts she is due to pass, only to Im; replaced by wax models of newer lines. Kvcry spring and every fall the wax models go forth ; from thp fashion centers, to be garbed in stores like the i local ones with all that is latest and daintiest in the way 4if personal adornment, A New York designer has given out the secret. The mannequins have but a brief day of glory. Their un faded tints, their shapely shoulders, will bo sacrificed. Frigid h df-smiles on their lips, eyes still frostily gazing to the beyond, they will go into tho melting pot, to le made into creatures yet more fair for another fashionable season.
