WITH DEATH CLOSE AT HAND
Hunter Sat for Hours In skIff, Not
knowing Alligator Was Just
Behind Him.

For the nature student the habits of
the alligator hold much interest; to
the camera sportsman he presents de-
lightful possibilities; while to the
everyday tourist who will really seek
him in his home he will give an as
sortment of sensations more thrilling
than could be unearthed in year of
ordinary globe-trotting.
Hunt up the haunts oil the creature
until you find river that he frequents.
Paddle quietly and alone down the
stream and up the creeks and branches
that enter it, till you find on the bank
the bed of an alligator with signs of
recent presence. Hide your skiff, sit
down on the bed, and wait for him to
come home. BY and by, out in the
middle of the stream, you may see
three little black dots-the nose and
eyes of your absentee landlord-and
soon the whole head, tail, and back
may appear. He will swim slowly to-
ward you, and probably sink gradually
beneath the surface reaching the bank.
If he comes on and crawls up on the
bank beside you, it will be high trib-
ute to your GOODNESS and complete con-
troll of your nerves, and the incident
will make a pleasant place in your
memory
1t happened once to me, writes a
globe trotter, that after long waiting
for the return Of an alligator upon
whose bed l was sitting, l discovered
that he had not left it, but was lying
in the tall grass just beside me, with
his big jaws three feet from my face,
and his ten-foot body curved partly
around me-
After sitting silently In my skiff for
a half hour, wondering why an alliga-
tor | had seen didn't show up, l
CHANGED to look down and saw his head
resting quietly on the surface of the
water within II inches of my hand as
1t lay on the gunwale
1t gives a sensation to be remem-
bered to sit thus, motioness, watching
the unwinking eyes of this free, wild,
powerful brute fixed gravely on your
face, the huge jaws and the little that
shows of his long white teeth within
reach of you and the one thought evil
IDENTIFY in the brutes mind that you are
specially prepared breakfast food pa
tiently waiting to be consumed.

Scheme for Fastening Cream Separa-

Here is a scheme for fastening a
cream separator down on a cement
floor which we have tried and found
very satisfactory. Before putting in
the cement floor, three-fourths inch
bolt was threaded to the middle, then
put through a hole in small piece of
scrap iron, writes Dan Belt of La

ly imbedded in the fresh cement, leay-
ing the threaded end sticking out. The
