Herring, Shoals Grow, Despite' Onslaught From Man: Enemies. - Gaspe Basin, Canada, Aug. 9.--A trip with the fishermen who go out to their leisurely semi-annual migration to the spawning grounds is a revelation in the way of affording a conception of the immense number of these fish. It i seven exciting to catch a sight of the herring school for the first time. The sea glitters far as the eye can reach with the reflected sheen from the silver-sided multitude. The air vibrates with the wi of innumerable gannets and other" gue swooping as often as appetite ls to snatch another mea frcm the prodigal provision beneath. There is a splashing, romping fringe on three sides of seals, white, piglike por- poises, little blue herring sharks, and now and then the fitelike tail of a grampus, standing bolt upright a dozen feet out of the water. The great curtain nets, as well as the seines, have to be of the stoutest mate- rials, or they would be, as indeed they often 'are, smashed by the dead weight of the multitude. The side ropes and meshes are at certain seasons incrusted several inches thick with herring spawn, which gives the water a milky appear- ance for miles. But all this does not give one such an idea of the amazing size of these silver-clad armies of the sea as does a walk on tHe beach in some of the New Brunswick coasted counties after a heavy gale in the spawning time. The eogs of the herring fall at that season through the water, and in _gum- mv clusters affix themselves to rocks and stones at the bottom. Each one is about a quarter of an inch in size, protected by a fairly stout gelatinous horny shell. These are often thrown out by heavy gales, and lie upon the shore knee-deep. Farmers busy themselves for days carting these eggs to their fields where they form a valu- able manure. An observer in Pleasant Bay, on the Magdalen Islands, reported that the as was "covered two or three feet deep with them for several miles." No uninstructed person could believe that these incredible masses of marine flot- sam were of animal origin. There are thousands of tons of them, each ton, aggregating millions of potential her- rings. The shoals of herrings are never ap- preciably smaller, in spite of the vast quantities of spawn thus destroyed by ales or high tides. Each herring, it Be lately been demonstrated, produces about 30,000 eggs each season. The old naturalists used to calculate the number as ten times as great. . The fishermen take thousands of bar- rels of mature herrings each year. The lobster fishery alone uses 40,000 barrels for bait; the cod fishery many times that number. The manufacture of her- ring oil dicnoses of immense quantities also. E sarrel of fish produces near- ly three yw.ions of oil and a fifth of a ton of expensive fish guano. Only the best fish are barreled for sale. On the Pacific coast the fish are even more numerous than on this side of | grain merchant, 1 dealers, a bushel each. A few of them -------------- "10th, 1907 WHTG, SATURDAY, AUGUST A BUSINESS PARABLE. You Can't Fail to Appreciate the Point Once a farmer had 1.800 bushels of wheat, which he sold, not to a single but to 1800 different paid him in cash; but far the greater number said it was not convenient then; they would pay later, A few months ssed and the man's bank account ran w. "How is this?" he said. "My 1,800 bushels of grain should have kept me in affluence until another crop 18 raised, but I have parted with the grain and have instead a vast number of ac- counts, so small and scattered that I can not get araund and collect fast enough to pay expenses." So he posted up a public notice and asked all those who owed him to pay quickly, But few came. The rest said, "Mine is only a small matter; and I will go and pay one of these days," forget- ting that, tho each account was very small, when all were put together the meant a large sum to the man. Things went on thus. The man got to feeling so bad that he fell out of bed and awoke and, running to his granary, found his 1,800 bushels of wheat still safe there. He had only been dreaming. Moral--The next day the man went to the publisher of his paper and said: "Here, sir, is the pay for your paper, and when next year's subscription is due you can depend on me to -pay it promptly. 1 stood in the position of an editor last night, and 1 know how it feels to have one's honestly earned money scattered all over the country in small accounts." The Men's Outlook. East and West, Two dollars a year from each church member would support a sufficient num- ber of missionaries to bring the gospel message to every human being in all the earth, in one generation; that is within twenty-five years. This is the careful calculation of the cautious business men who stand for the Laymen's Missionary Movement. If every church member were to give a one cent stamp on five days in the week, or a single street car fare for any. one day in the week, the aggregate would be sufficient to equip and maintain a missionary force large enough to overtake the task. The reckoning made by experienced missionaries is a man or a woman free to give whale time to the work, to 25,000 ple, with native assistants trained. his would mean trebling the present staff at work, the world over. For cost,' it would mean an advance from $21,000,~ 000 per year, at present contributed by all ristendom, to $80,000,000 a year. Great Britain, the United States and Canada, amongst them, give 85 per cent. of what is now contributed. 1f the total increase is to be reached, these great missionary nations must keep up their percentage share of the increase. e appeal is thus brought very close, espe- cially to voung people, now beginning to earn money. It is entirely practicable. Largest Stones. The walls of the Acropolis at Baalbek are truly called Cyclopean. The famous Trilithon, the largest stones ever used in building, measure respectively 65, 64 and 68 feet in length, each block weigh- ing 750 tons. How these huge masses were accurately placed in position twenty feet above the ground is a problem which modern science, with all its appliances, the continent. In one year one of the American companies, the Alaska Oil and Guano Company, shipped 172,000 gal- ons of herring oil, 1,200 tons of guano and 192 barrels of choice herrings. This represented about 60,000 barrels of her- rings. Hundreds of thousands'of bar- rels are taken altogether in American waters each year. How these prodigious armies of fish get their living in the sea has only been exactly determined during the past few years. In fact experiments to perfect the proof are still going on along this coast Following to a logical conclusion the argument that all animal life depends directly or indirectly upon the vegetable finest sort of bolting cloth as used. by millers was drawn slowly behind a steamer across a bay. An acre of salt water, it was discovered, produces about as much vegetation in a year as an acre of good meadow land. : One great naturalist has computed that if one of the countless number of varying minute organisms was allowed perfect development without any coun- teracting destruction for one month the product would be a mass of protoplasm many times larger than the sun. One little plant manipulates itself by break- ing in two about five times a day, and becomes 'mature in three hours.e An immense number of tiny animals browse upon this rapidly-increasing herbage, and together with it constitute plankton, which is the scientific name for this prepared ration of meatr--and greens dealt out in amazing quantitics at Nature's free lunch counter. The herring family is provided with an automatic straining apparatus of the utmost fineness whereby as they breathe the water through their gills, they un- consciously sift out their daily food. Thus they have the happiness of feed- ing without effort and of finding their supplies without exertion, and thus they stand at the very apex of idealistic tratnpdom. - To one who knows the secret of the green coloring of the ocean, the wonder 1s not how does its countless. animals Let their living, but how the amazing vegetation of the plankton can possibly be kept under, even by the multitudin- ous' grazing things. which throng those aqueous pasturages -------- The Fraternal Spirit: "The time had come," recently spoke that great leader, the Bishop of Lon- don, "to look upon the Nonconformists of England as something more than an integral part of the religious life of England. They formed almost half the Christians, Was it quite Christian to ignore the existence of the Nonconform- ist minister in the country town or vil- lage? It did not mean that they were to preach in his chapel or invite him to their church--such short cuts to reunion defeated their own purpose: it did not mean that they were to cease to preach and teach the Catholic truth of Chris- tendom clearly and effectively: but it did mean that they were to ognize him as a Christian brother shepherding his own flock in his own way, and teach- ing them to love and follow Jesus Christ. So far from such a spirit being inconsistent with sound church princi- ples, the contrary was the case, and all over the country it was (he strong, con vinced churchman, who knew his own principles and was not them, who was living on more brotherly a Carriages, Cutters, Harness i ia . every Saturday er matchless. i Pr ------------------------------------------ The girl of matchless beauty is nev- terms than anyone else with his Non- conformist neighbor." kingdom, a dragnet composed of -the } ashamed of leaves unsolved.

Professor Charles Briggs, Union heological Seminary, who a few years ago was convicted of heresy by the Presbyterian church and then joined the Episcopal church, recently read a paper before 'the Presbyterian Dit of New York upon "The Virgin Birth." It was so orthodox that it was requested for publication, and the erstwhile heretic was unanimously elected an 'honorary member of the union.

At this great centre of church interest the delegates from America, Anglican, Presbyteram, Methodist, Congrega- tional, were received twice, and once entertained by the Archbishop of Can- terbury, who wrote to the conference at the Bible House cordially and unre- servedly in its behalf. The delegates attended a service of intercession in His Grace's chapel. Will this recognition from the highest authority, following the Bishop of London's sermon, satisiy those in Canada who decry inter- denominational courtesy? A great gathering was the annual re- ception of colonial and missionary church workers by the Archbishops of Canterburv and York. Organised by the United Boards of Missions, of which the agchbishops are the presidents, this ar's function was attended by a more fiumerous and representative gathering than ever before. It was under the aus- pices of the United Boards of Missions that the pan-Anglican Congress is to be held next year, and there are already diocesan boards in twenty-sgyen out of Re thirty-seven dioceses in England and es,' Among the speakers at the reception was Dr. - Schieffelin, president of the American Church Missionary Society, who explained the new Laymen's Move- ment in America, which had appointed eight members to visit England in an- swer to an campaign of the same character there The American delegates commenced their work in London the last week of May; there were receptions at the Bible don.
