The Weldon News tells a queer story of how one snake bite killed two animals and yet the animal bitten didn't die at all. It says that Mr. F. L. Litts, who lives near that place, is the owner of an old dog. A lew days ago a snake bit a dog on the mouth, and its head swelled up to a tremen dous size The dog kissed a pup py, and the poison was imparted to the little pup, and its head al so became much larger than its normal size. The puppy kissed a cat and strange as it may ap pear the cat also received the poison, and the poor feline's head and mouth became swollen. In three days the puppy died, and the cat died, but the old dog re covered and got well. News cV: ! Observer.
