A sight was wltnensed one day at the Zoo that has been the talk of the people managing .the animals of the garden ever since. Keeper Myers, who has charge of the auake cages, waa about to feed the reptiles, when, to hi borror, he saw one black snake mean nriuif six feet devouring Its mate, which was about the same length anil :sl2c of luiclf. The reptile bad swal lowed Its fellow head first, and only a foot and a half still remained outside Its mouth. It was lying quietly, and about once every 3) seconds a sw-al-lowing motion would seize It, when as much as two Inches of Its meal would lLsappear. Myers opened the cage And, grabbing the powerless snake by tlie tail, began tugging away to release It This proved to be no easy task, as the cannlbalUtically Inclined monster tad a firm hold on Its breakfast Aft er several minutes of pulling that brought the perspiration out on the keeper the snake waa set at liberty. For a time it seemed paralyzed, but gradually regained lu Btrength. Cin cinnati Enquirer. Ml Fialak. "All, Ilortense," he cried, "I cannot rive you up.

At certain seasons of the year the Red sea Is almost unbearable.

V A'aW vr see The northweBt is a very trying climate on a piano, an the long wet winters tend to swell the wood in every part of the piano, while the warm dry spells tend to phrink it agiiin. These climatic changes, often very pronounced, oflnct a piano regardless of the manu facturers' skill in seasoning woods; you havo noticed this in a "binding" key when the air is damp, to be followed luter by a "rattle" when the weather becomes warm and dry again. To make a piano as little eunceptible to weather conditions as possible has been the aim of many manufacturers. The greatest advance, however, has been inade by tho W. W. Kimball Co., as a comparison of pianos will exemplify. We would be very glad to have you call upon our representative, Mr. C. V. Davis, at present and until Saturday evening at Uurmeister & A ndresen's Jewelry Btore, where ho will be pleased to show you the essential mechanical features of a KIMBALL PIANO, which make it, in fact, a WEATHER PROOF PIANO.
