FISH AND FISH EGGS BOME MARVELS OF THE TRIBES OF FINS AND §CaALES,. Naturc'« Happy Provisions For Re- strioting Ieproduction-Eels That Bulld Fortrossos Whorcin to Breed Their Young. That obliging person who for the bene- ft of sclence volunteered to count the eggs of a codfish found himself confront» ad with a remarkable proposition. It is gald that hoe first attempted to count them adtor having hardened the roc in a pro- servative, but as this evidently was the work of yoars and would in all probabili- ty become a horftage in his family, to be «completed in some future generation, he compromised by counting a spoonful and by caroful estimate so reached a logical conclusion and gave to the world the fact that the codfish would if all its eggs hatched and came to maturity have given birth to 5,000,000 young. It is vory avident to the statistical and mathomatical mind that if all these cod- fish lived and all their descendants and go on for five or gix years that the Atlantic world become clogged by codfish, Atlantic liners would be stopped in mid- ocaoitm, and tho resultint plague would aweep the world of its human. Inhabit ants, This dreadful fate is happily avert» ed by nature, who provides so delicate an adjustment that the supply of fish is ap- parently equal to the demand, , Nontly all fish deposit eggs by the mil- long, the number being extraordinary. \The momont they hatch they constitute the food for fish. Sardines, herrings, mackerel and countless small fish feed upon their own spawn, and as the young grow thoy become the prey of myr- lads of fish, birds and seals, so that the survival of the millions produced repre- senfa but a fraction of the original de- posit, Tho methods of fish protection and di- xninution presont an interesting subject, \but In investigating the former one is at 'once struck with the fact that in almost every Instance the mother deserts her progeny, leaving them to the care of the | ale, Many of the fish, as the mackerel, swordfish and others, doposit their eggs in the open sea, whore they float along, tha proy of vatious animals. Others de- posit thom upon the bottom, and among tho latter are many which crcet struc» tures of various kinds-barricades or forts, as It wore-for their protection. An interesting illustration of this has noticed in the Saco river, where the lamproy col built a veritable fortress, This was of rocks or stones, some being half as large as a brick, heaped up in the form of a dam Afteon or twonty feet in length and three or four in height. How the fish brought the stones togother was a mys- tory untll the act was observed by some one, Kho cels foraged up stream and, grasping mn stone in theiv suckerlike mouths, lifted themselves from the bot- tom with a wriggling motion, allowing the swift current to carry them down to \the heap, whore the stone was dropped. If u stone was found too large for one, two Inmproys would lift it from the bot- tora and allow it to be carried down atrenmt to the fortress, In this aggregation of rocks the oggs of the lamprey were de- posited, find about them the young were reared, so escaping their many enemies, © A number of fish concent their eggs in :plles of stones which are heaped up in this way, Tho dace is one, the pile or \heap being vory small. The stone toter Is Another example. The latter fish retains the castle year aftor year. The visitor to \Wostminster park, in the conter of the \St Lawronce, will find by careful search | in the immediate vicinity piles of stone threo and a half foct in height, some renching so near the surface that the avrlter touched the top of the nest, and a | boat would run into it, Tha crevices af- forded evory possible security for the youug fish, Amoug the Ingonious methods for car- Ang for tho young and protecting them is that in vogue by tho lump fish. Tho ven- tral fins form small suckers in the fish, and by theta the young cling to the par- | ent, often almost covering it and undoubt- «edly weighing It down. When the fish is swimming, followed by countless num- bors, it progents so singular an appear- «mac’s, that it is called the \hen and chick- ong. In one of Dr. Livingstone's works on Africa ho refors to the legend or belief of the natives that a cortain small fresh wa- tor fish carries its eggs and young in its mouth, 'This was considered a more story of the natives, but later investigation ahowed that this was a habit of the fish. Professor Agassiz discovered a fish in the Amazon which carried not only the eggs in its mouth, but the young, and they re- mained packed awny in its cheeks until they wore liternily forced out. The writer has obsorved the male stickleback take its ailnuto young into its mouth, hold them for a fow seconds and, approaching the mest, Htornlly blow them into it, repeating this day after duy until the young wore too active to be controlled, A fish com- mon in the Som of Tiberius takes its young Into its mouth aud holds them so long that ofton the gills are prossed out, giving tho fish m ludicrous apperrance. \The instances where fish endeavor to car- «y their young or oggs are many. A cat- fish at the time of ogg laying presses its lowor sarfreo upon the oggs, which ad- horo to {t, ultimately appearing to bo de- ponded from stalks, dangling as the fish moves along, and hore they remain until the fish are hatched, ; _ Tho male of the I{ttle son horge receives jthe young Into a pouch and holds them, and one of the pipafish has a similar ar- rangement, though not so perfect. A little fish In the Amazon seizes a root or vine hanging In the water, attaches refuse ma- terlal to It and in the interstices concenls its eggs, which remain there until they tro hatched. In these ways the young fish ave protected from the many enomies that are looking for them, But when the eggs ars hatched then they become viettras, In many instances they are decimated by their own kind, and few escape compared with the num- ber hatelied, sud If nature were not so prolific many tribes would soon become coxtinct.--New York Times.

Whether Dr. Conan Doyle, the creator of Sherlock Holmes, was ever called upon to test his ingenuity upon a real case in actordance with the theories of the all penotrating Holmes is not known to the public. R Edgar Alian Poe, who invented Dupin, the precursor of Bucket, Le Cog, Holmes and all the great detectives of modern lit- ezature, was tested more than once upon real mysteries and showed himself as apt at unraveling them as bis own clever hero. Indeed in one of his tales of mys- tery he purposely paralleled the circum- stances of n case then agitating the pub- He and bailling the police, and the solu- tion which he offered in his fanciful ver- glon proved years after to be also that of the true tragedy. Porhaps it is not surprising that the imagination and trained observation of the novelist should assist him in detective work if he is ever called upon to under- tike it, Anthony Trollope, a novelist as far as possible removed from the school of sensational literature. once accomplish- ed a quick capture in the line of his duties other than literary, for he was for many years an official in the service of the Brit- ish postal department, \He had visited the office of a certain postmaster in the southwest of Ireland in the usual course of his duties,\ his broth- er relates, \had taken stock of the man and bad observed him during the inter- view carefully lock a large desk in the of- fice. Two days afterward there came from headquarters an urgent inquiry about a lost letter, the contents of which were of considerable value. 'The informa- tion renched the surveyor late at night, and he at once put the matter into the hands of his subordinate. «\There was no conveyance to the place where my brother determined his first in- vestigations should be made till the fol- lowing morning, but it did not sult him to walt for that, so he hired a horse and, riding hard, knocked up the postmaster whom he had interviewed two days be- fore in the small hours. Possibly the de- meanor of the man in some degree influ- enced his further proceedings. Be that as it may, he walked straight into the office and said: \'Open that desk! \'The key, he was told, had been lost for some time past, Without another word he smashed the desk with one kick and thore found the 'stolen letter!\-Youth's Companion. POULTRY POINTERS. The more inactive the fowl the less corn it needs. Fowls that fre not closely related make the best breeders. Birds with small combs and plenty of feathers endure cold best. Eggs are fertile after the hens have been mated about ten days. Darkening the nosts will sometimes keep the hens from eating eggs. Paralysis in chickens is usually due to overfceding and lack of exercise. Should discase of any kind appear al- ways provide a dry, warm place. Feeding regularly and liberally is abso- lutely necessary for the well being of fowls. Elave the perches far enough away from the doors and windows to nvoid drafts. When insect powder is used for vermin, it should be well dusted in among the feathers. A bird may be made to look plump by dipping it for ten seconds in boiling water and then holding it in cold water until chilled. In yards where fowls have no run and where the soil is compact a failure to pro- vide gravel will cause indigestion and bowel troubles. Sand is not a good sub- stitute. They require sharp grit. 'To keep down lice oil the roosts and their supports every two or three weeks with kerosene or carbolic acid. Sprinkle sulphur? tobacco or iusect powder liberal- ly in the nests and remove the droppings regularly. A Plant That Never Goes to Seed. A peculiarity of the sisal plant is that it seldom or never sets a seed. 'The flow- ers fall, carrying the ovary with them; then on the ends of the branches young plants develop, so that the pole presents a rather odd appearance with the small plants growing out in the places usually veeupied by the flowers. When these young plants have attriined a height of from three to four inches, they fall to the ground and take root. 'Fhe old plants also reproduce themselves by means of suckers, and hence, when old and neglect ed, fre often seen surrounded by numer- ous smaller ones, as in the common house- leek (setuiperviyum). Dog Sacrifices. Numerous gaccounts have been given, both in angient and modern times, of the sacrificing of dogs for veligious purposes. They wore immolated at certain periods by the Greeks and Romans to almost all thair deities, particularly to Mars, Pluto, Minerva and Proserpine; also they were offered to the moon, because the dog by his barking disturbs all charms and spells and frightens away specters and appari- tions, cy Economy.

Crawford in London Truth, .. wal s A NEW USE FOR MUTTON. Why Certain Kentucky Women Eat Only That Kind of Meat. \Chimney Bill\ Smith, a quaint charac- ter in John Uri Lloyd's \Warwick of the Knobs,\ is responsible for the following story of why the women in one county of Kentucky cat mutton only. He tells it to the village circle, a represenaive body of citizens, which gathers in the grocery store of Mr. Cumback at carly candle- light: \Colonel Jargon, who died over on Blue Gum fork 'bout ten years ago, said thet when he served in the Mexican war fer mbout six months the soldiers didn't get nothin' to cat but sheep. Et war sheep fer breakfast, sheep fer dinner and sheep fer supper. When et war not lamb, et war sheep, and when et war not sheep et war lamb. 'The men didn't think much 'bout the grub. They were glad to git sheep. The weather war hot, and et war late before the frost came, and all this time the men were catin' mutton. One hot night the company turned into their bunks as usual, and next mornin' the air war full of snow. When the men turned out, et war found thet every man's jaws war set tight. Not a feller could git his teeth apart. Et war a sudden attackt of a new complaint. The doctor hadn't never heard of sich a disease, and he had cotch- ed et too. Long 'bout 9 o'clock the clouds broke, and the sun come out, and then the men's mouths 'begun to open, Et war a curious affliction. 'The next night another frost come, and the next mornin' the men hed the same trouble-their jaws were shet tight ag'in. The doctor gave it up as a new discase. He wrote a scientific pa- per for a medical journal and gave et a long Latin name, Mexicojawshet er some- thin' like thet, an' fer writin' thet paper he got a promotion, and when the war war over he war made perfessor in one of the oldest colleges in America. \But old 'Nigger Sam,' the butcher, laughed at the men and said the disease wouldn't hurt 'em, and as he war the only man free from the complaint he war watched to see ef he was usin' any nigger cure, Et war found that when he got out of hig bunk in the mornin' he soaked his head in hot water the fust thing, and when the captain called him up to explain he gives the whole snap away. Bt didn't make no difference while the weather was warm, but\- \Chimney Bill\ stopped. \QMuess what caused the disease,\ he asked. { \The subject's too deep for me,\ an- swered the village clerk. \Give it up, men?\ \Chimney\ appeal- | ed to the circle. \Yos. What was the trouble?\ \The fact war the heads of them men hed got so full of mutton taller thet when thet cold spell struck the camp et sot into a solid cake, and thet cake of taller held their jaws shot. After thet when the air war frosty the cook war ordered to stay up all night and boil water so thet the next mornin' the sojers could thaw the taller in their heads without waiting fer the sun to rise. The sojers kneeled down in a line, with their heads stuck out like turtles, and the cook went down the row, pourin' b'ilin' hot water on 'em as reg'lar as the sun rose.\ \What are you givin' us?\ asked an old farmer. \God's truth, as sworn to by Colonel Jargon, who died on the Blue Gum fork 'bout ten years ago. When he come back from the war, he never give his wife no meat but mutton. The men 'bout diskiv- ered the reason fer his dietin' his ole wo- man, and thet's why in thet Kaintuek county the women ain't none of 'em fed no kind of meat but mutton.\ His Word Backed Up by His Looks. This amusing story is told by the pres- ident of a New Bedford bank. One day he and other officers and directors were engaged in a business meeting, held in the directors' room of the bank, and as they believed themselves secure from in- trusion they were much surprised to see a poor little waif enter the room, some- thing which any man of business affairs would not dare to do under such condi- tions. The little girl, shabbily clothed and pinched looking, had all unconscious- ly entered on forbidden ground, but this she didn't realize and at once went to the men seated about the big table, offering them small cakes of soap for sale. The first director whom she approach- ed shook his head, impatient at the inter- tuption of business, and said sharply, \I never use it.\ The tiny peddler, unabash- ed, went from man to map, all the others, out of pity for her wan little figure, buy- ing of her. As she started to leave the room), after thanking each purchaser, the girl hesitated a moment in front of the director who never used soap, according to his own declaration, and, looking him over from head to foot, said disdainfully, \Well yer look it!\ And then she swept out like a duchess.-Boston Herald. Sieges of Herat. Flerat has been. besieged more times than any place in the world. If the sieges are accurately counted, the result is fifty-two. It was the capital of Timur, it was fought for by the Mohammedans, by the Persians, by the ameers of Kabul, and there was always an ameer of Herat anxious to regain his patrimony. The years when Herat has not seen fighting have been rare, and Herat is a very old town. During the last century it had been unsuccessfully besieged in 1837 and 1838 by the Persians and taken by them in 1850, regained by Dost Mohammed, ameer of Kabul, in 1863; lost by him to an ameer of Herat and regained by him in 1881, under the late ameer, Abdurrah- man Khan,. Reckless. Mr. Wayback-Some folks ain't got sense enough to come-in when it rains. Did you see that long haired chap with his arms full of bundles? Mrs. Wayback-No; who? Mr. Wayback-Don't know, but he is down there at the old pond parintin' a pic- ture of that tumbledown mill. He might know that mill wasn't built right er it wouldn't 'a' been allowed to go to rack ind ruin. Now, I s'pose he'll go of an' put up one just like it an' lose every cent he's got. -New York Weekly. Not Easily Learned.

It is popularly supposed that maternity is the foe of beauty, and the M) worn and faded face of many a mother seems to warrant the belief. | But it is hard to believe that nature should compel a woman to sacri- fice the rightful dower of her @ beauty in order ¥ to carry out a natural function of her being. And nature does not. 'The pains and sufferings incident to. motherhood are, to a large ex- tent, unnatural. This is proved by the use of Dr. Pierce's Favorite Pre- scription, which prevents and cures nausea, tranquilizes the nerves, encour- ages the appetite, induces refreshing sleep, and makes the baby's advent prac- tically painless. Mrs. Orrin Stiles, of Downing, Dunn Co., Wis., writes: \I have been intending to write to you ever since my baby was born in regard to what your 'Favorite Prescription has done for me. I cannot praise it enough, for I have not been as well for five years as lam now.
