They had rcacfccd a point on the old emigrant r0jid, near tho Big Meadows. , Mr Lascy, Sr., U perfectly familiar with the whole of that mountain country, and hid decided on a camping place a few miles further on. But I coming to an pld cabin oh the road, . ...

Vfith its head elevated about threer 'est from the floor and drawn a little backward to tho stately curve of the neck, evidently to make vjoni for the swing of the open ing door, tii o hu-e monstsr faced his intruders. Loth men carried rifles, and as tho elder Lascy started back, tho son brought his riHe to his shoulder and fired at the reptile's head Mr. J Lascy, quickly .recovering himself, fired also, and almost at the samo tinio. There was a terri!!e shuffling sound for a second and like a flash the snako scaled th walls of the cabin through an op'::v!:i cloo to tho eaves and dis appeared. :ud a. iio v.-as going over a piece, of his tail fell from tlv$ wall to Lie ;'ocr. Whether both shots had e.Tect orlnot it cmn vt b said, but ou-3 r.'not cert. duly did. hut missine: the.head struck the tall, which was in range on the opposite idf ag.iiust tha rocks, aud iu going over die wall it was torn from i is siender hl!i.

The- snake wa3 ;-t le:ict sixtuou feet, long," The body was immense, as can be judged by the tail, and as it !.iy up x the ibxir, partially lliltauc'd. it-appeared-to be fully eight inches in breaiith. It was covered with alternate black arid vftite rings. Mr. Iascy sayr. that from -the fright which the sudden and unexpected sight occa sioned and the rapid disappearance of the -reptile after the shooting but after they fired they quickly retreated from the door it ij impossible to give a minute description of the appearance of the monster, other than its color and enormous uizo. IIqiV to Cool a Cellnr. A great mistake Is sometimes made in ventilating cellars and milk houses. The object of ventilation is to keep the cellars cool and dry, but this ob ject often fails of b-iug accomplished by a common mistake and instead tho cellar is made both varin and damp. A cool place should never be ventilated, unless "iihe air admitted is cooler than the air within, or is at least as cool as that or a very little warmer. 'J'h3 warmer the air the more moisture it holds in suspension. Necessarily, the cooler the air tlm more this moisture 13 i condensed and precipitated. When a cool cellar Is airod on a warm day the entering Rir, being- in motion. 'appears oool; but as It S'.'a th cliar tiic ccoUr air with which it becomes mixed chiil : it, the moisture is eon l-nsed and dew is deposited 0:1 the cold walls, and may often bo ssen ruiming u"vn them in streams. Then the cellar is damp and soon bc-comes moldy. To avoid this the windows should o.-d.r bo opened at rd-ht and lat;i last tiling before retiring. There i-; no need to fear that the night air is u unfaithful; it is a pure as the air of ndd iay, ai.d is really damp it may be tiionmdy dried by I placing i i it a j '" f fr-sh lime in an . .... .... open w)X.

Tho real misery of the widow, however, begins after the first month. It is not enough that she is quite heart-broken for her deceased husband, and that she under goes all the above mentioned bodily privations; she must also continually bear the nost galling indignities and the most humiliating seif-s icrifices. She cannot take an active part in any religious or social ceremony. If there be a wedding in the house the Widow must not Uracil or in any way interfere with the articles that are used to keep the curious marriage customs. During the poojuks. or religious festivals, she is but grudgingly allowed to approach near the object of veneration, and in some bigoted families the contact of a r widow is supposed to pollute the mate rials requisite for the performance of marriage ceremonies. The widow is, In fact, looked upon as the " evil one " of the hou30. If she has no son or daughter to comfort her, or if she has ; to nass her whole life, as is often the i ' ' caso, with her husb.-'nd's family, her condition truly becomes a helpless One.' D'iringany ceremony or grand occasion ! slm has silently to look on, others around her or.joying and disporting ; themselves, and if some kind relation j does not conr to relieve her tedium she j has hardly any thing to do but to rum.i- nate on her present sadrwretched con j dition. 12 very fijuiala member of a ; family, whether married, can go to par- tioK, but a widow catniot, and if sheex- presses any wh.h to join tho family on j such occasions it is instantly repressed by the curt rebuke of her mother-in-law or some other relation that " she is I a widow, and she must not have such i wishes.1 Oiigia oi' Slanting Hoof.
