HUNTING ALLIGAToRs AT NIGHT
It Is a Weird and Oftentimes Very
 Dangerous Sport.

Dangerous Sport.
 Night hunting for anigators is one of the weirdest forms of American sport. The canoe glides softly over coal-black water, with heavy trees hanging over the banks and every thing lost in gloomy mystery. A lan- tern with a strong reflector is car ried. The dazzle of it makes a drift ing or swimming alligator hesitate just long enough to provide a good chance for shot. Sometimes the lantern Is affixed to the bow of the boat Some times 1t is affixed to the front of the sportsman's boat so that Its beam of light shines straight in the direction of the line of aim.
 This method of night hunting Is known as shining" If the gator Is asleep when the shine" falls on him, he will glare stupldly at 1t for mo- ment or two before he Is awake fully enough to get away into the darkness. Then Is the time to shoot. The shot gun Is most used for this kind of hunt ing, and the charge is sent into the

Our government is constantly called npon to protect American citizens who become involved in difficulties abroad. This protection Is one of the most important of its duties. and yet one of the most delicate and embar- rassing. If performed at all 1t must be performed promptly and effectively, and yet the department Is always handicapped by the probability that such applicants are impudent impos- tors or weil-meaning dupes. It is safe to say that majority of the so-called American citizens who appeal for in tervention in their behalf are foreign CTS by birth who have taken out, or pretend to have taken out, naturaliza- ton papers for the express purpose of returning to the land of their nativity and there engaging In pursuits more sr less acceptable to the authorities.

NEW FLOATING HOSPITAL.
Latest Innovation Connected with Care
 of the Sick

of the Sick. The plans of the new Boston float ing hospital are still in process of con struction by naval architects. who, however, have completed one showing the hull. which gives some idea of her dimensions. She is to be construct ed of steel, TO feet over all, 46 feet over the guards and 40 feet water line beam.
 Her superstructure will be not unlike the harbor steamers. though much more lofty. Her underwater body will be of an unusual shape for this class of vessel, being similar to the shallow, center board American sloops of twenty years ago. This will insure ease of motion, an absolute necessity in hospital ship.
 The ship will have five decks. On the lower deck, or In the hold. will be the engine room, with 1.I50 square feet of floor space. the autopsy room and morgue, and the machinery for the atmospheric plant, which dries, cools or warns the air, as occasion may re. Quire.
 In this part of the ship will be the dining room for the mothers and chill dren. seating about 100 at time, the Kitchens. serving room and storage hold for the ships stores. On the main deck there will be of. rces for physician and others. the lab, oratory, another necessity In carrying on the work. which was done in a closet on the old boat; the visitors waiting room, dressing room, sewing room, linen room, and dining rooms for guests, physicians and nurses There will be large ward amidships. Each ward will have Its ante room. and on this deck, near the bow of the boat, will be a large operating room and sterllizing department. On the awning deck will be space for caring for 200 out-patients. with screened beds and other appliances; the reception room. the kindergarten room for well children. state rooms l for the physicians and the resident physicians room, resting rooms and shower baths.
 The spar deck will be clear, with the exception of lifeboats. pilot house and captains quarters. The ship will have a sixty -eight-foot smokestack, i've feet in diameter. which will weigh six tons. She will have a hollow steel mast. which will also serve as smoke and ventilator pipe to the kitchens. This mast will carry d tifty-foot spirit for signal purposes.

GIRL WHO WENT FISHING.
Sat Down on Her Captive and Then She
 Screamed.


 Screamed.
 I lifted with might and main. The whisk of filmed tail, s feetins glimpse of dusky scales and scarlet speckles became suddenly correlated in my mind with the fact that one of my boots was full of water, and my line was swinging high In the air-the hook gone, the gut leader nipped off short, says Country Life in America. It was small work to 80 to the tent for the other pole. One does not expect all luck to be good luck in fishing. Back on my stone perch flung my line into the air at random, and the bait struck the water just below the little cat aract. A tug. mighty as the first, and fully as prompt, nearly lost me my balance. but 1t steadied my nerve. One thought, one purpose filled my mind-I must get that fish to shore. The trees on shore began to move in circle, of which I was the center. With joy I saw my angry captive flash out of the water; then came an instant of despair. He was off-the curve on which he rose was complete, and he fell forward-right at me. The up curve was a forlorn hope-the down curve was perfect assurance. I knew my fish would never escape me. By all the laws of dramatic unity and poetic justice, he was mine. For in his gaping mouth 1 read startling revelation. He was bringing back those two hooks! He struck the water in that little basin shut in by the three Jutting rocks, and I sat down upon him! I did 1t calmly, and I trust with dignity, but without delay. It was the only thing to do. He was in a trap that needed but a lid I was that lid. There I could answer my fathers call, for the dazed fish had found a corner, and a groping thumb and finger had found the back of his neck. My repressed feelings broke forth in one long, ambiguous, feminine scream.

 One of the exciting stages of alli- gator hunting is after the beast has been hit. As a dead alligator sinks almost at once, 1t Is necessary to get hold of him quickly Sometimes 1t hap pens that the creature has not died as he should. and in that case there will be vast trouble, great deal more in teresting to read about than to expe- rience. A ten-foOt alligator, hurt grievously and crazy mad, canoe that remains right side up even under or dinary circumstances only because the occupants are lucky, pitch dark bayou and black water full of various undesirable reptiles, from water moe casins to other alligators. makes a combination equal to a first-class night mare.
 Many alligator skin hunters in Flor ida and the Gulf States carry marks that accrued to them because they made such a mistake about the death of an alligator.
 SI"ihihs du hiAshtor "lth rue Is pretty sport especially If the hunter Is blue blood and willing to call 1t fair deal only If he shoots the reptile through the eye. An alli- gators eye is not big. If the bullet even 50 much as grazes the bony eye socket, the chances are that 1t will glance of and the alligator will plunge away, unharmed except for astonish- ment and anger at the unreasonable ness of man.

 Pe-ru-na Contains No Narcotics
 One reason why Peruna has found permanent use in so many homes is that it coontains no narcotic of any kind. Perupa is perfectly harmless.
 It can be used any length of time without acquiring a drug habit. Pe- runa does not produce temporary re- suits. It is permanent in its effect.
 It has no bad effect upon the system, and gradually eliminates catarrh by removing the cause of catarrh. There are multitude of homes where Peruna has been used off and on for twenty years. Such thing could not be pos sible if Peruna contained any drugs of a narcotic nature.

Dividing the Tips.

Tipping has been reduced to a very fine system in some English hotels and restaurants "I was sitting at meat with the manager of one of the well known London restaurants" says a writer. "I am short-sighted and un- observant,' I said. and as I never know one walter from another I'm al- ways uneasy lest I've tipped the wrong one The manager laughed. Fritz, bring the book he said. The book was opened upon the table and dis closed columns and rows of figures op- posite the names of walters. Between them the manager and Fritz explained the system.
 Every penny given in tips was cast into a common fund in charge of a waiter elected by his fellows. At the end of the week the sum was distrib- uted. Three classes were arranged by the manager. according to efficiency, and the shares were in corresponding proportions. so that the junior who hovers with the sauce is by no means equally rewarded with the expert who can advise in the matter of wine.
 "Waiters keep jealous eye on their fellows. and the man suspected of pocketing a tip finds his position un- tenable. The system Is good for the public. since 1t diminishes the unpleas S. ant personality of charita ble action. It Is good, too. for the walters, since that record of the weekly gratulties showed that the best walters made about S2.000 year in tips"

Columbus, Ohio, May Ie, 1903.

SolumDus, Onio, May I9, 19o3.
 Some four years ago I was suffering from impure blood and general run down condition of the system. had no appetite, was losing flesh, and had an all- gone tired feeling that made me misera- ble. I began the use of S. S. S., and after taking seven or eight bottles my skin was cleared of all eruptions and took on a ruddy, healthy glow that assured me that my blood had been restored to its nor. mai, healthy condition. My appetite was restored, as could eat anything put be- fore me, and as regained my appetite Increased in weight, and that "tired feel. ing" which worried me So much disap- peared, and I was once again my old self.
