Jamaica

There are a good many crocodiles in
the more distant reserves of Kingston
harbor and at the mouths of the ia
maica rivers. but they are exceedingly
wary, and Il most cautious approach is
necessary if one wishes to get close
enough for an effective shot.
Just as the lion has his jackal and
the shark his pilot fish so the crocodile
is almost always accompanied by a
small plover. which perches upon the
scaly ridge of its back and is just Wis
ible above the filthy water in which its
big patron loves to wallow.
On the approach of man or any other
danger this tiny bird futters into the
air and utters a shrill cry to warn its
''chum."
The crocodile dives, and you may sit
In your canoe and nurse your rifle for
an hour without q chance of a shot.
The Jamaican crocodile is shyer of
man than most of its kind.-Chicago

The average person of so called cul-
ture who has leisure to read reads too
much and thinks too little. and in con-
sequence his conversation lacks fresh
ness and ~spontaneity. An exchange,
after saying that people generally read
too much and read more than they
carry. tells a story of a man who had
been a great reader, but had changed
his ways, and people. after he read
less, finding him much more interest.
Ing. exclaimed: How entertaining
John was today! He must have been
reading a good deal"
Mere reading is . waste of time. To
conduce to intelligence the reader must
train the mind to concentration on the
subject in hand. and TO concentration
must be added the effort to clothe and
transmit thought in appropriate phrase.
