Of all the occupations that call for fearlessness and nerve. that Of the jungle trapper takes first place. He must brave all sorts of danger in the way of pois- onous insects germ breeding swamps anc everglades, hostile savages and levers. He is constantly in danger of attacks hy stealthy wild animals. He ia never safe, day or night, during his Journeys into the forests or onto the plains.
 It is little wonder that the fine speci- mems of animal life displayed in our zoos cost fabulous sums of money. when ore considers the cost of an expedition inso the junges. hundreds of miles. overland from the remote edges of civilization. Sometimes a body Of hunters will spend months in outwittnig and capturing one rare specimen It is not always dfnlclF' to shoot down an animal from point oi safety. but to trail him. and capture him alive in the dead hours of the night, or run him to bay in the light of day, IS task that requires a nerve and q cunning that few men possess.
 To capture an elephant a large pit IS dug. The mouth is covered with light brush. over this Is spread a carpet or grass. The elephant steps into this car pet and the trappers are richear by few thousand dollars. A giraffe is lassoed. He is not hard to catch, but after he is procured it is a problem to get him to a port and ship him without injury to the
