A v .a age Your PHILLIPS' MILK OF MAGNESIA Stumbling over vines and roots, we floundered helplessly in that tropic swamp. Late in the afternoon we came out on a bit of solid ground beside the river. We tried to head upstream, but ran into another swamp. We made our way back to the high ground and aU night we huddled there, cold and wet, with the rain dinning in our ears. Dawn found us wretched with hunger and thirst, for with all the water around us, none of it was safe to drink. Across the river we could see waving banana leaves. Over there would be trails, and a trolley line leading to the railroad. If we could only get across. But to get across that river meant swimming and the river was fuU of alligators. On the other hand, it would be almost as bad to go back into the jungle. In front of Freds eyes was a picture of a native he had found a month before. lie had been lost for 13 days and when Fred found him he had gone into his last sleep a shrunken body covered with torn and festered skin. Even alligators would be better than that. It was Bat who decided Fred. Bat was just over an attack of fever, and he was the weaker of the two. "Stay here and rot if you want to, he croaked. "Im going across the river." Fred felt the same way about it. He told Bat to go ahead that hed stay on the bank with a rifle and "cover his crossing with his big automatic rifle. Carrying the lighter rifle a .22 Bat called his dog and plunged into the water. He made steady progress, and no alligators showed their noses above the surface of the stream. But Fred was relieved when at last he climbed up on the other bank. "Bat motioned to me to come along. says Fred, "and with a sick My rifle was much too feeling I made a few simple preparations. heavy and awkward to hold, so I unlaced my belt half way, threaded it through the trigger guard and refastened it around my waist. This permitted the barrel to swing between my legs and gave me freedom to kick. As I entered the water it occurred to me that Bat was covering my approach with a .22 full of water. A .22 wouldnt even dent an alligators tough hide. But by then I was out in the current and swimming. Fred swam steadily. He was making it. And then, when he was a scant 15 feet from shore, something struck him a terrific blow in the small of the back. At that moment, Fred bad visions of a big, scaly snout poking at him before making the final grab. An alligator!

Fred was working down in Costa Rica in 1922, as overseer of a banana farm. Bat was another young American who also worked on the plantation. On New Years morning, the pair of them started out on a hunting trip, taking along Bats dog. And that mutt led them into the worst spot either of them had ever been in in their lives. The dog, Fred says, was a brainless animal, untrained and more trouble than he was worth on a hunting trip. They had crossed a bridge over a river, struck into the tropical jungle along a well known trail and had been hunting for an hour when the dog ran off into the underbrush and, a few moments later, set up a terrific yelping. r s ML a dog alyarn most to their doom.

I crawled ashore and flopped face down on the ground, gagging and retching with naosea, I lay there for a while, and then Bat helped me to my feet and steadied me while I took the rifle off my belt. As they started to walk away, neither man spoke. Nothing was said about Freds terrifying experience. Darkness had fallen again, when, after much stumbling they came to the trolley line that led to the railroad. Just before midnight they came in sight of the winking lights of their plantation camp. They took some whisky and a stiff dose of quinine apiece and went to bed. The next morning Fred got up and began taking stock and got the surprise of bis life. When be came to examine bis rifle be found that the barrel was split from the muzale almost up to the stock. Then be asked Bat a few questions they hadnt spoken of that swim across the river before and found out aU about that alligator that bad given him such a scare the evening before. That alligator just didnt exist It was the gun that had given him that poke. "The motion of swimming. Fred says, had pushed th catch off safety and the drag against the belt had pulled the trigger. The cartridge, exploding under water, created a terrific recoil which drove the stock of the gun into the small of my back. Bat had seen what took place, and thought from my cries that I had been shot. Hence the expression of horror on his face. And L of course, thought it was because something had attacked me. My mind had been too dazed to realize the folly of swimming with a loaded gun. And another folly Fred says he'll never repeat Is going to the rescue of a dog. s Service.
