C. B. Mi&yett ells: the correspondent
of the Journal at SWftewall a "story of
whavk f predioament' a nake got into
who" trusted .too much to appearances.
Mr. Midyetit was at the home of Mr.
T. J. Sawyer a few days ago. The wo
men folk went to the hen house" and
there encountered a snake. They con
cluded tihat the snake was upon the
same errand as themselves, looking for
eggs, and ithey judged by the appear
ance of the enake that he had already
helped himself. They were quite right
in judging that the creature had '.'tak
en something." An examination of
his snakeship was made and they dis
covered that it had swavloWed a white
knob of a lock and not "only the knob
but the iron attachment several inches
long to which another knob is attach
ed when put through the door. Of
course the snake had swallowed -ithe
knob because it was like am egg and
had been put there by Mrs. Sawyer ats
a nest egg. The snake must have found
the door knob rather heavy, to say
nothing of the iron attachment several
inches long. 'New Bern Journal.
