"With all the rain we have had for the past two weeks," said the man from over Sinnemahoning way, "it would seem to me that the Natrlx fasclata erythrogaster, or its near rela tion, the X. fasclata slpedon; or. In fact, the whole blamed caboodle of the Natrlx family, couldn't have dared to hope to have a Spring opening more to its liking than April has been giving it right along. "I haven't seen even a sign of one of 'em yet, though, and if none of 'em has come forth to cavort and contort along the borders and on the overhanging bush es of the storied Sinnemahone, it isn't at all likely that any oC 'em has shown up yet bn this commonplace side of the mountain. You haven't run across such a thing as a Natrix, any of you, have you? A Fasclata erythrogaster? Nor even a slpedon?" "If you spell 'em 1-d. Id; J-lt, Jit; ldjit." said the man in the pink, blue, green, red. yellow and purple Mackinaw Jacket, breathing quite hard and chewing his navy plug fiercely, "I've see one. Yes; and I see one right now, by socks!' The man in the many-hued Jacket looked straight at the man from over Sinnema honing way, who merely smiled blandly, nodded at his Mackinaw friend and re sumed. "Yes," said he. "The Natrix Is tardy this year, plain enough, and has missed a whole bunch of weather that would have been congenial to him. And then It is a great setback to us over the Sinne mahone. Sweet birds may sing their ver nal songs amid the bursting buds; flowers bright and flowers gay may bloom on the hillsides and scent the vale; but we never can feel our hearts throbbing with the gladness of the merry Springtime, no matter how good the sucker fishing Is, if the Natrix is "hot come. "Sinnemahoning land is never quite aflush with the Joy of Spring until Na trix gets along that way. Particularly the fasclata erythrogaster. And this sea son, up to date, we are still shy the Na trix, even Including the slpedon. "I wouldn't feel so down-hearted and lonesome, though, so far as I am con cerned, If I had 'only met a Eutaenla brachystoma or one of Its more familiar cousins, the E. slrtalls ordlnata or even a dear little Storerla occlpltomaucotus. But not a ding one of 'em have I run up against, and so It is plain that none of those ever-cheering harbingers of spring on the Sinnemahone has as yet stuck forth Its head. "Why! Two weeks earlier than this, last year, I saw a Storerla oclpltomacula tus In a lively tustle with a Bufo Ientlgln osus more than three times Its heft, and it was in a good way to best It and dine upon it, when a sprightly, but covetous Eutaenla slrtalls ordlnata Jumped In from where it had been watching the scrap and took the Bufo away from the poor little occlpltomaculatus. "The poor little occlpltomac went dis consolately away toward the creek, while the Eutaenla slrtalls itself engulfed the lentlglnosus, and a hungry Chelydra ser pentina, just astir after its Winter coma, and which had just failed to capture a plump Catastomus commersonl, looked wistfully on. Oh, the Spring was gladsome a year ago, with the Natrix. and the Eutaenla and the Storerla all early on the scene and doing stunts! "And so I've been wandering dejectedly to and fro this Spring. Of course, later on, there'll be lots of things to brighten life on the Sinnemahone. There's the Anclstrodon contorrlrix, for instance, and the Heterodon platyrhinus; but then we don't ever expect them along until the hired man is out betimes, raking the meadow sweet with hay. And not until tho huckleberry is azuro on tho sunkissed barrens, and tho blackberry has ripened where the briar patch tangles the old burnt-ground back lot, will we 'welcome the Bascanlon fiogelllfornls and Bascanlon constrictor, close of kin, and pert, slick and sassy both. "And there's the Crotalus horrlda, whose merry castanet we never hope to hear un til the waters run low, the stones grow hot beneith the blandishments of the July sun and tho bogs are dry In the upland swamps, whither the Bascanlon constrictor never goes for whithersoever tho Bascanlon constrictor goeth, thither the Crotalus horrlda tarrieth not, but straightway taketh up its bed, so to speak, and gltteth. "And before the Maytlme grass is lush in the meadows and the pasture Is rich where the sweet-breathed klne chew their cuds and swish the pestering files, we never look for the Ophlbolus exlmlus, for there the milk Is sweet in the mllkhouse. May nights are cool, and it is up to the Ophlbolus to eat, drink and be merry. So none of these frequenters of the Sin nemahoning bailiwick Is of Springtime joy to us, and we miss the Natrix and the Eutaenla. We do, for a fact! "Speaking of the Heterodon platyrhinus, though, one day I but there! I'll bet a big red. apple that as Heterodon platy rhinus you folks on this side of the moun tain fall to recognize the Heterodon platy rhinus! And as the Erythrogaster fascl ata or the but tut, tut! I might have known as much! "Why, oh, why will you dwell on this side of the mountain? What point Is there In being citizens of a district where the Heterodon platyrhinus is known to fame only as the hog-nosed snake, or, at best the blowln' adder? How can mortal man be happy, domiciled where they call a Bufo lentlginsus a hoppy toad? And where, if I should lay before them a Storerla occlpltomaculatus, a Crotalus hor rlda, a Natrix fasclata erythrogaster or Natrix fasclata slpedon, an Ophlbolus ex lmlus and a Eulaenla. brachystoma or a Eulaenla slrtalls ordlnata, they would yell: 'Mud snake! Rattler! Watersnake' Snoopln mllksnake! Garter snake!' and would grab a club and pitch In 'to smash em? "And what hope Is there of a land where they know the Chelydra serpentina only as the snappln turtle? Holler 'Blue chaser black snake 1' and drop their berry pails and run away when the fleet and And every Distressing Irritation f Skin and Scalp Instantly Relieved by a Bath with llf1!!!
