Pensacola the other day to avoid the
law as profession because there
were already too many lawyers. He

THE WOMAN THOU GAvEST ME

God gave Adam good many
things. 1t seems that he was put
in "a garden" and charged with the
responsibility of tending it. But
there was no apparent reason why
he should not have staked q much
larger claim. Standing at the top
of creation. in splendid solitude and
, miserable isolation he could. have
said:
81 am monarch of all survey;
My right there is none to dispute;
From the center all round to the sea
l am lord of the chickens and
brute"
There wasn't any Monroe doctrine,
nor allies, nor ententes-no nation
al lines, nor international problems.
He was a mighty rich man, but he
was friendless. and Poor is the
,friendless owner of a world" Be-
sides, with all his possessions, he
lacked a good many things. He
didn't have any clothes to wear, and
If he had had, there was no wife to
mend them, and no. place to go
where clothes counted.
The good Lord saw that as things
stood Adam was a failure-a bust
ness failure, literary failure, a
family failure. Seeing this, He
said 1T is not good for man to be
alone" go causing Adam to fall

and using that as a starter, He

announced his willingness to do that

themselves in the presence of wit

FLORIDA ALLIGATOR IS
USEFUL CITY SERVANT

We find this in the Fort Meade
Leader, which is good enough to
travel as showing the utility of the
Florida alligator as member Of the
municipal board of administrations:
Fort Meade is perhaps the only
city in the world which has an alli-
gator on it's pay roll. But Capt. King
has discovered very useful work
for Nick in the scavenger depart
ment of the city's sewer system.
Nick belongs to small boy here
who hires him to Capt. King, our
superintendent Of public works,
when there is need for line to be
passed through sewer as is some
times the case when sand accumu-
lates or an obstruction lodges. After
Nick has travelled from one man
hole to another with the line secure
ly fastened to his body, which he
usually does in a very few minutes,
he is hauled up and the line attached
to the drag which does the rest. We
hope to show in our new booklet a
picture Of Nick the captain. the
windlass and negro assistant, caught
in the act. The sanitary depart
ment of Paris, we are told, uses a
mechanical crawler to pull a line
through it's sewers when there is
need Of dragging same, but it took a
Florida cracker to think of a plan Of
using native talent. 1t is cheaper to
catch alligators than it is to manu-
facture heavy crawlers, equipped
with sef-motoring machinery"
