How to Keep an Alligator.

To those who may think Of keeping
an alligator q brief description of the
best way to house him may be useful.
Procure a good-sized box, say W or
three feet square, and a baking pan
about half the size of the box, to hold
the water (Which should be change
every day or two), then cover the floor
of the box with sand. Put glass or
wire netting on two of the sides and on
the top of the box. Glass is better, be-
cause it retains the heat in the box; but
you must lie sure to freely admit the
air.
For food, raw meat given on n straw,
to seem alive; flies and worms an small
live fish form an alligator's favoritc diet.
But as he is not de,nonstrative his air of
content is apt to lead one to neglect him
unless special care is taken. Remember
that the alligator is accustomed 10 the
heat of Florida and keep him in a warm
room during the winter.
| am sure that alligators are more iu-
tclligent than they are generally
thought to be. Indeed, l have heard OF
one in a South American country which
having been caught when very young
and patiently trained. would follow its
master like a dog and was perfectly
docile.-St. Nicholas.
