as remarkable in his method of living as he is ugly and he is ugly without doubt his broad lumpy head has a mouth that is like- a cavern and teeth- that slope backwards so that any flsh that once passes the portals of those awful jaws never has a chance of coming forth again the ordinary angler squirms on the bottom of a shallow shore among the rocks and seaweeds opens his mouth wide ready for business and drops his rod and line this rod and line con sists of a spiny sort of projection from his uppermost fin that extends into a thin string and at the end of this string is a knd of tiny tassel that is the lure now the angler begins to fish the rod and line projecting forward and the lure just ahead of his- jaws an inquisitive flsh comes nosing round wondering whatever that bobbing tassel might be it touches the lure ever so gently and then the big gates of the anglers jaws snap together and the inqusltive stranger has gone inside out- of the wet some anglers can swallow small cod and thps o nn n rnucu by fisijermen in many localities deep down ta midocean from a quarter to threequarters of a mile beneath the surfale there are tiny anglers that adopt a strange device it is dark in those ocean depths so the angler is fitted by nature with a lamp he lights his lamp just a glow at thotop qf jtils head or end of his line of course when to the surprise of the other flsh somebody lights up iii those dim deeps all the others come round to see what is this wonder they draw nearer the crafty angler watching the while then when the crowd is gaping and gazing in
