BLY’X‘H'S ('URNE‘ (S. Durham, Ont. HAMPDEN. BORN. Living Fish Net. A peculiar method of fishing is em- ployed by the natives of certain islands of Oceania. At stated intervals about 200 of them will assemble on the beach and all together plunge into the water, each carrying a branch of the cocoa palm. At a. given distance from the shore they will turn toward it and form a compact half circle. each holding his palm branch perpendicularly in the water, thus forming a kind of seine. The leader of the party gives a signal, and this living net approaches the shore gradually, in perfect order, driv- tng before it a multitude of fishes. Sur- rounded by this living wall and caught in the cocoa palm blanches, many fish Nicely Translated. A quaint translation is that by the young Japanese who wished to turn into his mother tongue the English proverb, “Out of sight. out of mind." He evolved a translation which. being construed back into English, read. “Tho Invisible is inane." Easy Borrowing Terms. In the course ot a lecture on “ ~lov- emment Finances and Social Life In Japan" before the Japan soviety in London. Kengo Mori. financial commis- sioner and attache for the imperial Japanese government, said that in the olden days gentlemen tried to keep aloof from all money transactions. 0! course there were borrowers and lend- ers then. as there are today. and even among the Samurai class. But their agreements, if written at all, were al- ways worded in a manner characteris- tic of the spirit of the times. One such agreement ran: “Dear Sirâ€"l hereby confirm that I borrowed from you the above mentioned sum of money. Should I not repay the sum you are en- titled to laugh at me in public.” The Great Lesson. “Agatha. love, do you mean to tell $27.50 '2” o “Geoffrey, dear, before you have been a husband many years you will learn. the great lesson that the dimensions of a hat aflord no criterion for judging the size or the bill.”â€"Chicego Tribune.

He stepped up to her, took her hand ‘ in his and looked intently into her eyes where he saw a struggle between pity and self sacrifice on the one hand and revenge and possible death for herself on the other. And he saw. too. the moment when the decision came. She took off her sunbonnet and hand- ed it to him. then divested herself of her dress, which she also gave to him. He understood and put them on.

When he reached the spring he tilled the bucket, at the same time casting his eye over the clearing. He knew that one of the cordon of Griggses was not far away; but. seeing no one, he started across. He hadn’t gone far before he heard a voice: “Helio that! Yo’ Mahuldy!

Then suddenly he saw a sun flash on a rifle barrel. and for a moment he hesitated. Then came the rifle’s crack. but no bul- let came near him. He shuddered, for he believed that Mahulda had shown herself and had received the fire. Hearing no further sound, he ran to the wood beyond the clearing. The Griggses, who had fired suppos- edly at Backus and seen him fan, ran up to him. There lay Mahulda, pale and bleeding. or I’ll shoot at 370’! Quite likely the bullet that hit her saved her life. Her own people could not kill her. and the sacrifice she had made filled their hearts with compas- sion. When she recovered a meeting was called among the Griggses. and Mahulda was sent to the Backuses with a proposition to end the feud.

They are the cheapest kind of roads at the end of ten, fifteen or twenty years because they practically eliminate the cost of upkeep. They enable you to haul big er loads with lCSI effort and less wear and tear on horses and vehic es. They increase land values, better conditions generally, and decrease the cost of living. Write for, free, Good Roads literature, and learn how good roads will benefit you. MR. FRANK TERRA,CE ADDRESSING THE Good Roads Convention at Tacoma, Washington, gave the following enthusiastic testimony in favor of good roads: “I am a cabbage grower. Ighaul my produce to the sauerkraut factory at South Seattle. Before the road over which I travel voias built, I had to get up at 4 o’clock in the morning to start on my journey. The limit of the load I could haul with a team of 1800 pound horses was 2500 pounds, and after visiting the factory I would arrive back at my home late in the evening. But look at the difference now that a permanent hard surface has been laid down. I start on my trip about 8 o’ clock and need only a team weighing 1400 pounds to haul a load of 5000 pounds of cabbage, which is double my previous capacity. And, best of all, I find on my return to the house early in the afternoon, that I have finished the day’ I work without the horses having turned a hair.” NOW IN EFFECT DAILY SERWCIE lass nf equipment PHONESâ€"I My.
