WHY NOT GO TO CHURCH?

BUNGALOW-OWNERS

TOO BUSY

By Evelyn Monro

Why do men and women no longer go to church? The recent series of wireless talks on "How I spend my Sundays" has brought out many startling and thought- provoking reasons, but a stay in

RESEARCH IN POISON

LADY WHO WORKS WITH VIPERS

Paris. Visitors to the Zoo in Paris' Jardin des Plantes are not allowed to go up to the second floor of the reptlle house. If they were, some of them might have unpleasant aur- prises. For the laboratory on the second floor is occupied mainly by vipers, and the elderly lady who spends her life among them is said to discourage visitors by let- ting her pots romp about the room. There is one story that when the postauan made his traditional year- ly call for his New Year's tip, he opened the doar and found a tre- mendous bos behind it and since then no postman has taken the trouble to call at all.

The occupant of this laboratory Ix Mme. Cesaire Phisalix. Her husband, in 1888, discovered the antidote for the bite of a viper- the same snake's venom heated until its strength is lost, and then injected as an antitoxin. Mme Phixalix began working with her husband in 1895, and since ke died, In 1900. hus carried on his work alone. She is the author of "Veno. mons Animals and Poisons," the most complete work on the subject," and she is working now on what other medicinal uses may be found for the venom of vipers.
