Tyrrell’-s Drug Store Phone 68r2 PARK ST. UNITED CHURCH 1 (Rev. J. H. Osterhout, B.A., B.D. j Pastor Many gold firth were given away at Tyrrell’® drug store, and -here -are a few rules -to -go by in the care of these fish : Use as large an aquarium that your -space and pocket-book will allow, as fish should not; ‘be crowded. Use some fine, washed hard -sand on the bottom of the aqu-arium, if you like. Put in suitable ornaments, according to the individual taste. In a -still water aquarium, with one three-inch fish per gallon of water and healthy growing plants, you- can man lain satisfactory -conditions almost indefinitely and will need only to replace the water which evaporates. It i® not at all unusual to -have an aquarium operate without -cleaning fo-r a period of -six months- at a time. If water is pure, the sin- gle -coll organism? called algae, will gro-w profusely, and will be recog- nized as -a green coating on- the glass,.. This is not slime. It is a valuable -aid to the fish. If the aquarium is prepared with all the accessories plac- ed properly, pouring in water from a considerable height will disturb them. This can be prevented by put- ting a board on th-e inside and let- ting the waiter fall on this board at first. After filling the aquarium, let it stand in the room several hours be- fore fish are -put in- it. This will re- move any excess of oxygen which -might have a tendency to smother the. Goldfish. In choosing water, we would re- commend : First, filtered rain water. iSeco-nd, city water from faucet, and third, water from a well placed last because some well water has a large amount of iron or sulphur in it, which is not best for goldfish. -Put some salt in a container (pre- ferably siea salt), a tablespooirful to a gallon of water, and let the fish re- main in this s-olution for five min- utes. Even if they, turn over on their sides and appear to be almost dead, they will quickly revive when transferred to the fresh waiter in the aquari um. Repeat this salt bath pro- SCe-ss at least onc-e a month, whether they seem to need it or not. -Gold-fish will tell when they need assistance, iby certain definite signs. If they have used up all the oxygen in the water, they will hang at -the to-p with their mouths protruding, gasping for air., If the fish are sick they will lie on the bottom with tins drooping. They are also sick if they show spots o-f white -cottony appear- ance. In ease of either of these trou- bles, give them the salt bath. As thé aquariums are small they have little exercise so need little feed. They should not be fed ainy -more than they will eat in a half hour, twice a week Feed the food so slowly that you can see each particle consumed. If there i-s a surplus o-f food in the water, it rapidly decomposes, liberating an acid which absorbs oxygen and po- intes the water. Tif necessary to change the water entirely, be careful to see. that the new water is practically of the same temperature. Clean the aquarium thoroughly and the ornaments- with a â- strong- salt solution. Do not use soap -or other similar -clean-sing materials. Do not handle gold fisli if pos- sible. Use a rounded, rather deep dip net for transferring them, under any condition’s. Do not even put the â- SUNDAY, APR. 3rd 111 a.m.â€"Rev. C, O. Miller, of ] Bridgeivorth. 7 p.m.â€"(Rev. C. O. Miller.
