BY THE CLOCK. 
Let me give you a suggestion for exercise. 
Rise at 6 :30 A. M. Put on old clothing, easy 
shoes and a sweater. Time for dressing, five 
minutes. 
Walk one-fourth of a mile; time, five minutes. 
Then run a mile at a dog trot in eight minutes, 
arranging your circuit of a mile and a quarter 
so that you will finish at your door thirteen 
minutes after starting. At that hour you will 
meet only milkmen and paper carriers. 
That exercise will expand your lungs and 
stimulate your heart action and land you at your 
doorstep at 6:48 A. M., panting for breath, 
thoroughly exhausted, and perspiring at every 
pore. You are then ready for your bath and 
routine of the day. The man of sedentary 
habits who patiently pursues this exercise may 
kiss all drugs good-bye.—New York Times. 
BALD EAGLE KILLED NEAR NEW 
ORLEANS. 
While out hunting recently on Bayou La- 
branche, E. H. Arnold, of No. 139 Dumaine 
street, shot a big bald eagle. The bird measured 
six feet from tip to tip. The bald eagle is sel¬ 
dom found in this section of the country, and it 
is probable Mr. Arnold will present it to the 
State Museum.—New Orleans Times-Democrat. 
AN IMMORTAL SNAKE. 
From the Korean Times. 
During the demolition by the Japanese authorities of a 
building known as Koo Cheun Kak, built many hundreds 
of years ago by the founder of the present Korean 
dynasty, an enormous snake emerged from the hole left 
in the floor of the compound by the removal of a stone 
weighing 1,000 pounds. 
It began to travel round the compound with great 
rapidity, jumping over any walls that came in its way. 
Seven Japanese soldiers eventually killed it, and they 
then took the remains outside and burned them. 
That night a green fog settled down over the city, and 
the seven soldiers who had killed the snake are said to 
have died suddenly and mysteriously. 
After the soldiers were dead the snake again made its 
appearance, and running round and round the houses 
and jumping over them, prevented any one from sleeping 
that night. 
What eventually became of the strangle reptile is not 
related. 
“What a wonderful vocabulary the new minister has,” 
said Mrs. Oldcastle. 
“Yes,” replied her hostess, “it’s almost as big as 
Josiah’s Uncle William’s was, only his turned into a 
goitre at last.”—Chicago Record-Herald.

Where, When and How to Catch 
Fish on the East Coast of Florida. 
By Wm. H. Gregg, of St. Louis, Mo., assisted by Capt. 
John Gardner, of Ponce Park, Mosquito Inlet, Fla. 
With 100 engravings and 12 colored illustrations. 
Cloth. Illustrated. 268 pages. Map. Price, $4.00. 
A visitor to Florida can hardly make the trip without 
this book, if he is at all interested in angling. It gives a 
very complete list of the fishes of the East Coast of 
Florida, and every species is illustrated by a cut taken 
from the best authorities. The cuts are thus of the most 
value to the angler who desires to identify the fish he 
takes, while the colored plates of the tropical fish shown 
in all their wonderful gorgeousness of coloring, are very 
beautiful. Besides the pictures of fish, there are cuts 
showing portions of the fishing tackle which the author 
uses. A good index completes the volume.

Men I Have Fished With. 
Sketches of character and incident with rod and gun from 
childhood to manhood; from the killing of ljttle fishes 
and birds to a buffalo hunt. By Fred Mather. Illus¬ 
trated. Price, $2.00. 
It was a happy thought that prompted Mr. Fred Mather 
to write of his fishing companions. The chapters were 
received with a warm welcome at the beginning, and have 
been of sustained interest. The “Men I Have Fished 
With” was among the most popular stories of papers ever 
presented to Forest and Stream readers.

Bears I Ha.ve Mel—And Others. 
By Allen Kelly. Paper. 209 pages. Price, 60 cents. 
After some years of peaceful slumber, Mr. Kelly’s most 
excellent book of bear stories was roused to life by a 
recent criticism of Mr. Seton, the question being where 
Mr. Seton got his material for his bear stories, for a 
number of people suggested that it was taken from Mr. 
Kelly’s book. With the merits of this controversy “our¬ 
selves have naught to do,” but the matter in Mr. Kelly* 
book is excellent, interesting and worthy of pretty much 
any author.
