Australian snakes and remedies from a lecturer
Visitors to La Perone or Warra Bay should refrain during the coming summer from peering at galvanised iron on the ground. Mr George Cant, a professional snake catcher, has observed snakes leave homes for shelter. Dr. B. J. Kinghorn cited Cant’s work and noted many venomous species in Australia, including the death adder and tiger snake, with danger levels varying by species and breeding season. Snakebite treatment outlined involves immediate ligature, cutting punctures, and applying permanganate, with cautions on timing to prevent death or serious injury.

The trial drew criticism for leniency with the press noting that such thefts and “diverting socialised property” would usually be punished by death in Russia. A handsome engineer influenced her, claiming the modern Russian woman must blend business skill with sex appeal. The typewriter, valued at 5000 to 10000 renbels, was cited as the first step in pursuing that ideal.
