A Husband’s Question.
When a man, from drinking coffee,
gets to i^ich condition that he cannot
eat breakfast without throwdng it up.
It seems time to quit, but there are
thousands of people who do not un-
derstand that -when an article of food
or drink produces such conditions as
these it should tie absolutely left off.
A little woman out in Mont, writes
that she and her husband knew enough
to quit coffee when It had rapped them

BLACKSNAKE FLAGGED A TRAIN.
(Washington Post )
Capt. Frank Williams, who resides
on his farm at Woodford, about two
the Union depot and the rolling mills*
along the main fine of the railroad.
About half way home the road curves
around through a deep cut. As I gin-
gerly stepped along the erossties
miles beyond the exposition grounds, j while Hamlet glided at my heels,

In the bosom of a snake than 'hat

"Yes. str, he got to be so dependent
on me he followed me 'round like a
calf. If I went out to make a call
on a neighbor. Hamlet would come In
and festoon himself over the hatrack.
happy In knowing I was near, and
hot summer nights he used to crawl
down on the foot of my bed and beep
ray legs cool. He loved to do things
like that for me. He was always
hunting up opportunities to save my
life, bqt there wasn't much chance
here In old Fairfax county. Y' see,
the roads are too bad for automo-
bilea.
“But his faithfulness was at last
rewaiMed, and poor Hamlet did save
me from a horrible death, though a!
the cost of his own life. I had been
over to a matinee at the opera house
in Tidldi one afternoon, and on mv
way homo f went hack of the car
for an Instant I feared that he would
leave me to my fate The next mo-
ment I saw how cruelly I had mis-
judged his noble nature. With eyes
filled with hope and determination he
dived into my pocket, draw forth my
handkerchief, and an instanl later was
mopping it with feverish haste In the
flood that Bowed from my wound. I
lay looking on In bewilderment while
the thunder of the express train rolled
rapidly nearer. Then, as Hamlet
swiftly proceeded to knot the ends
about his tail, I knew he had con-
ceived some marvelous plan of res-
cue, and 1 laughed with joy in ray
full confidence In his snbtle intel-
lect.
„ “I've read of the wonderful doings
of snakes: how the bullsnake bellows
like a bull and the cowsnake bleats
like a calf till the old cow comes up.
and how It stands on its tail, and
by a gentle and soothing titillation it
deceives the deluded cow into belief
that it’s a thirsty calf and induces
her to let down the milk. And I've
s*t up of night* with fellows .in this
old prohibition eounty that would -nar-
ahops and took a short cut between rate to me the aimultaneous and va
garlous gyrations of the snakes that
were processioning across the ceiling.
But I’ve never heard of any that con-
torted like Hamlet did that day. With
one last glance that seemed to say,
'Old fellow, you just put your money
on the long one,’ he swiftly hoisted ni*
tall In the air, pushing it higher and
higher, till there he was standing on
his nose In the middle of the track like
a ballet dancer on the tip of her toes,
while six feet above him in the air
was the tip of his tail, and from it
there fluttered wildly in the wind the
blood-red handkerchief that you
couldn’t have told from the danger
flag of a rear brakeman.
“It must have been a terrible strain
on his nervous system, let alone his
muscles, and I was afraid he couldn’t
hold out, but the next moment the en-
gine came rocking 'round the curve
at a flfty-milean-hour gait. There
was a hiss of steam and a grating of
brakes as the engineer, halted by
Hamlet’B red flag, reversed the engine
and threw on the air. Hamlet, over-
come by the tremendous strain, col-
lapsed and fell in & faint, with his
body half across the rail, as the en-
gine canto shivering up and stopped
within a foot of me—but not before
