It was said after the firsfover
.brow df St. Pierre that the ex
plorers would face a deadly dan
ger in the venomous serpent,
fer-de-lance.
Thepoison is so deadly that
few persons survive the bite and
woodmen save themselves by
quickly chapping off the limb
that is bitten by the snake. He
isa born enemy, too, and seeks
his man and follows him till man
or snake is killed.
These snakes inhabit the
mountains chiefly, but wneu
Seismic disturbances occur they
descend to the lower lauds.
Hence it was expected that St.
Pierre wou!d be a den of these
reptiles. .
The story of pests on the is
land of Martinivue is interesting.
The time was when, like Cuba,
there were no poisonous snakes
there, but rats of voracious
breed were an unbearable plague
and some one learned that the
fer-de-lance is a good extermi
nator and secured some from
Trinidad. It was a success, for
the rats were soon gone. But
alas! the snakes were infinitely
worse than the rats for they
drove the people out of their
farming lands.
A South African told of the
snake-eating secretary bird. A
pair was secured and lo, the
snakes began to disappear and the
secretary bird began to fatten
and multiply charmingly. Farm
ing lands were reclaimed and all
was doiilg well, but the secretary
bird has beautiful plumes and
femininity yearned for them as
decorations. The bird is too
good a fighter to be robbed cf
his feathers alive and too self
confident to ktfo'w fear.
So hewas an easy prey for ex
termination by the hunter and
behold the snakes were soon
upon trtem again. 1

"Five years ago a disease the
doctors called dyspepsia took
such hold of me that I could
scarcely go," writes Get. S
Marsh ,workknown 'attorney of
Nocona, Tex. "I took quantities
of pepsin and other medicines
but nothing helped me. As a
drowning man man grabs at a
straw I grabbed at Kodol. I felt
an improvement at once and
after taking a few bottles am
sound and well." Kodol is the
only preparation which exactly
reproduces the natural digestive
juices and consequently is the
only one which digests any good
food arfa cures any form tf
stomach trouble.
