RATTLERS AND BEAR AT PICRIC.
Dora Start War of Annihilation
Among Snakes Capture Cnb.
Boys at a picnic at Greeley, Pa., re
cently had rare fun, says the New York
World. Aluch of it was due to the fact
that there has not been such a drought
In Pike County for fifteen years. The
Delaware looks like a lost river, the
beds of the smaller streams are dry.
The picnic was held at Rattlesnake
creek, In which so little water remains
that It does not hide the bowlders on
Its bed. Every boy bad a putty blower,
made from a straight piece of alder,
from which the pith had been punched,
leaving a caliber big enough for a bird
shot.
Soon the boys discovered a colony of
rattlesnakes preparing to cross the
creek toward them. Every Pike County
boy who Is not a nature faker knows
that a rattlesnake hates to wet its rat
tles. The boys hid In the bushes and
waited. Twelve rattlesnakes were In
the approaching bunch. The biggest
started ahead to reconnolter, the oth
ers waited on the bank.
The scout snake made his tortuous
way from bowlder to bowlder, and
finally his rattles, dry, reached the pic
nic grounds. He rattled a wireless "all
right" to the eleven, which crossed In
Indian file. The boys turned their
putty blowers on the snakes and fired
fast and accurate broadsides.
Maddened by the hall of shot the
snakes turned on one another, and soon
every one lay dead, killed by the venom
of each other. The twelve snakes'
combined length was sixty-five feet
But this was not all the fun. At
luncheon the tempting odor of honey
on the sandwiches attracted a very
small cub bear from his home In a
neighboring wood to the picnic ground.
The boys fed It on bread and honey and
took home a real but docile teddy bear.
A Cheerful Hint.
Among the presents lately showered
upon a Maryland bride was one that
was the gift of an elderly lady of the
neighborhood with whom both bride
and groom were prime favorites.
Some years ago, according to the
Woman's Home Companion, the dear
old soul accumulated a supply of card
board mottoes, which she worked and
bad framed, and on which she never
failed to draw with tho greatest free
dom as occasion arose.
In cheerful reds and blues, suspend
ed by a cord of the same colors over
the table on which the other presents
were grouped, hung the motto :
"Fight on ; fight ever."

THE SOURCE QFiUX DISEASE
Every part of the body la dependent on the Mood for nourishment and
Strength. When this life stream is flowing through the system ia a state of
purity and richness we are assured of perfect and uninterrupted bealta;
tecause pare blood la nature's safe-guard against disease. When, however,
the body is fed oa weak. Impure or polluted blood, the system is deprived of
its strength, disease germs collect, and the trouble la manifested ia various
ways. Pustular eruptions, pimples, rashes and the different skia affections
show that the blood is ia a feverish and diseased condition as a result of too
much acid or the presence of some irritating humor. Sores and Ulcers are
the result of morbid, nahealthy matter ia the blood, and Rheumatism, Ca
tarrh, Scrofula, Contagious Blood Poison, etc., are all deep-seated blood
disorders that will continue to grow worse as long as the poisoa remains.
These impurities and poisons find their way into the blood ia various ways.
Often a sluggish, inactive condition of the system, and torpid state of the)
avenues of boiily waste, leaves the refuse and waste matters to sour and
form nrie and ether acids, which are taken up by the blood and distributed
throughout the circulation. Coming ia contact with contagious diseases is
another cause for the poisoning of the blood ; we also breathe the germs and
microbes of Malaria into ouf lungs, and when these get into the blood ia
Sufficient quantity it becomes a carrier of disease instead of health. Soma

suffer in some way. For blood troubles of any character S. S. S. is the best
remedy ever discovered. It goes down into the circulation and removes any
