Smart Women’s Nasty Pets.
Soc’ety women always seem to be starting some new fad, and the latest thing in pets is apparently a viper of some sort. Lady Constance Mackenzie, the sister and heiress of Lady Cromarty, carries about with her a small snake, which she feeds on fish and other delicacies. while Mrs Arthur Cadogan. the sister-in-law of the LordLieutenant of Ireland, has made a ret of a python. She feeds it with live rats, and varies its menu with an occasional frog. Airs Cadogan's python is nine feet long. Though it dislikes strangers it is devoted to its mistress and will even get on her bed to be near her.
