1t takes great many clothes as ordi-
narily worn to keep one warm when rid
ing into the country any distance, par
tioularly if the wind blows. We would
make two suggestions for the benefit of
such. which, if followed, will insure COM
fort and avoid many severe colds. First,
take lighted lantern and place it be-
tween your feet whether you ride in day
time or night. You have no idea, unless
you have tried it, Of the warmth this will
afford, II your hands are cold, placing
them under the buffalo few moments
will warm them; second, don't fail to
wear an ulster with the wind proof lining
such as Townsend & Beck advertise.

Meekin,s Allipetors.

MY boy once had pet alligator that
was pretty fierce" observed Meekin the
lazy inventor, according to the Chicago
Times. when he leased this young saur-
ian, the beast would swipe out with its
powerful tail in an amazing fashion, with
out doing itself or anybody else any good.
It occurred to me that here was a splen-
did example of wasted energy, and I set
out to devise a means of conserving ii and
turning it to some useful purpose. /
spent a winter in Florida, and after l had
experimental with some of the small
gators that are supplied tourists for
consideration, | ordered some big fellows.
After some little trouble | secured ten
gators, each about four feet in length
and of about ten-hOrse power tail capac-
ity. My scheme was utilizing their tail
pOwer-yes, it was a kind of a tail race"
was this: The gators were placed side
by side in stalls, which left their tails
free to wag. 1 had upright beams set
like pendulums, the swinging ends of the
beams coming close enough TO the gators
to be in a good position for action. Then l
built a tank over the stalls and filled II
with laundering big cannon balls. There
was an inclined chute running from the
tank to the power wheel made with hollow
places in the rim, something ike a
water wheel. In the chute l had valve
to regulate the flow of cannon balls. Half
the gators were used to work the cannon
ball part of the machine, and the other
half to run a conveyor contrlVance to lift
the balls back into the tank after they
had done their work In turning the wheel.
l connected a small dynamo by a belt
pulley wheel on the power-wheel shaft.
Ny main circuit ran from the dynamo to
bank of incandescent lamps, which were
to be used in the test. When everything
was ready, the wheels oiled up, main
switch closed and the gators pretty mad,
I hired four little cOlored boys to so along
in front of the stalls and crack the gators
on the head with short clubs. This made
'em awful mad, and so they struck out
with their tails. Then the old shebang
commenced to run. A little coon would
hit a gator on the head, he'd let out with
his tail, strike a beam, open the valve, let
out a cannon ball, which rolled down the
chute and onto the wheel, turning it
around Then the ball rolled back to the
conveyor and was holsted up by one of
the other gators. She was humming
beautifully; but I had forgotten one thing;
that was a governor. The little. coons
liked their work and lambasted the ga
tors numerically. l stopped them, but the
Wild animals We're beyond control They
dashed around until the speed got so
high that the armature of the dynamo
burned out with a fash. The gators
running the conveyor got into race with
the other fellows and hOisted up cannon
balls so fast that the tank got over
weighted and broke down. The cannon
balls fell on the gators heads and killed
every one of them. Fact, l assure you"

he srasped smith by the arm and pulled

'f Ou are "A bunko man" was plainly
written on the face of everyone in the car
and Smith read the words as plainly as
though they had been actually written.
The men seemed ready to assault him,
and the women crouched as far away from

But I only wanted to give the lady her

Il had no thought of taking your money"

Smith gave him his money, sat down in
a far corner of the car, and for the rest
of his journey tried to appear uncon-
scious of the whitening glances cast upon
him. AS he alghted at Canal street he
heard a distant sigh of relief from every
passenger in the car.
