The Sea-Serpent of Nahant.

S.A. Drake writes in Harper's Magazine
for May: There is one topic with which
the annals of Nahaut are indissolubly
united that we feel natural diffidence
in approaching, yet cannot in conscience
ignore, and that is the sea-serpent.
Words are inadequate to describe the
widespread CONSERVATION which the ap
partition Of such amonster created amoug
the hardy population of our New Eng
land sea-board, for he was soon perceived
to possess none Of the attributes Of a
spotless and harmless fish, but to belong
stricGly to the reptile tribe. And what
reptile The most exaggerated reports
of his length prevailed in the fishing
towns of Cape Ann. One skipper swore
that he was as long as the mainmast of a
|seventy-four; another would eat him if
the steeple Of Gloucester Westinghouse
could hold a candle to him for length
still another declared upon his "atiidavy"
that having sighted the shaggy head of
the snake early in the morning, with a
stiff six knot breeze, aud everything full,
he had been half glass in overhauling
his tail, as he lay motionlcss along the
water.
For time nothing else was talked of
but the wonderful sea-snake which was
repeatedly seen in Gloucester Bay in
August, 1917, and occasionally also in
the waters of Nahant Bay, by hundreds
Of curious spectators, who ran to the
beaches or pushed of in boats at the
first news Of his approach. There was
not a tish-wife along thirty miles of
coast who did not shake in her shoes
when he was reported in the olfipg. But
as the time wore on, and the serpent's
pacific, even pusilanimous, disposition
became evident, courage revived, and
though the fish was a strange one, the
fishermen determined, with character
istic boldness, on his capture.
Stimulated, also, by the large reward
offered for the serpent, alive or dead,
vessels were fitted out, manned by ex-
pert whalesmen, which cruised in the
bay. The revenue vessel then on the
station was ordered to keep vigilant
lookout, and her guns double-shotted for
action. Nets were also spread in his
snakeship's accustomed haunts, and one
adventurous fellow who had approached
so near rs to see the white of his glitter
ing eye, emptied the contents of duck.
ing gun into the monsters head. But he
bore charmed life, and having easily
eluded his pursuers, derisively shook the
spray of Nahant Bay from his tail ere he
disappeared in the depths of the ocean.
Since this time the gigantic ophidian has
never revisited Nahant, though tidings
have lately come Of him from other
climes. His stuffed skin was never des-
tined to adorn the walls of museum,
and it is doubtful if he will ever know
other pickle than his native brine.

New Employment Office.

New enterprises Of every character, tend
ing TO benefit the public, we hail with pleas
ure, and one that strikes us with considerable
force, at the present, is the fitting up Of the
premises, No. 626 Clay street, San Francisco
next door TO Frank G.. Edwards carpet store
for a new, frst.class Intelligence and En-
ployment Office by those gentlemen who
have SO long pleased the public in their eff
forts while in the employ of Crosett ~ Co..
in whose establishment they have been the
leading men for number of years, Mr.. Han
sen having charge of the female, and Mr.
Ever of the male department. They now
propose trying the business on their own &C.
count, under the firm name of G.. II. Hansen
& Co., and their long experience and practi
cal knowledge of the wants Of the communi.
ty well entitle them to large share of pa
tronage. One of the great points of their
success will be in the fact of Mr.. Hansen
speaking iiuently the German, French and
Scandinavian languages, and his large and
extensive acquaintance among those nation
alties must add greatly to their success;
their mode OF doing business must commend
itself to all seeking domestic help. The skill
OF the mechanic, the labor Of the artisan the
farmer, the dairyman the mills and mines,
the hotels and restaurants, in fact, every
branch of industry can there find practical
and efficient help. They intend devoting
their whole energies in making their office
one of high grade, and "in their vocabulary
there shall be no such word rs fall" they
intend that every order shall be filled prompt
ly to the minutest detail, and no effort will
be spared to place right employees in the
right place; thus, the two great ends will be
accomplished, viz: the employers will find
themselves surrounded with good and eili-
cient help, while the faithful domestic, and all
classes, male and female, will find ready as
sistance to obtain good positions in their
various vocations. Their old friends will re-
member their exertions in the past, and give
them their patronage in the future; and we
urge upon those seeking a reliable Office and
not thoroughly posted, to call with full con-
hdence upon the new Employment Office Of

PROF. AUSTIN PHELPS sums up the
judgment of the American churches with
regard to card playing thus sin the
Catholic, Episcopal, ,and perhaps Lutheran
Churches, the innocence OF this amuse-
ment is not often questioned In consid-
erable fragments OF the Presbyterian, the
Reformed, and the Congregational
Churches, the practice of it has of late
years been gaining ground. With these
exceptions, it may be said that the voice
Of the great bulk Of the Evangelical
Churches is at present in the negative.
A bishop of the Methodist Church has re.
ceatly testified that that branch Of the
Church is almost a unit against card
playing"
THE Boston School Committee gave
hearing last week to the advocates of in
dustrial education. The apparatus and
tools of one Of the industrial schools were
offered to the committee for the purpose
Of enabling them, by practical applica-
tion, under their own immediate super
vision, Of the system of education now
pursued there, to determine their decision
as to whether the system shall be incor-
porated into the course of instruction in
the Public Schools of Boston. In this
particular school, it was stated, the
amount expended in one year in educat-
ing thirty-two boys in practical industry,
was only $3.50. The principal of one of
the grammar schools said among other
things that industrial education would
greatly benefit the health Of boys, adding
that in his school he had many nervous
lads, who, he believed, would be benefited
by the relief from mental work afforded
in mechanical pursuits.

Out Of Tune.

When the tones of musical instrument
become harsh and discordant, we say it is
"out of tune" The same may be said OF that
far more wonderful and complicated piece of
mechanism, the human structure, when 1t
becomes disordered. Not only actual disease,
but those far more common causes, overwork,
mental anxiety, and fast living, may impair
its vigor and activity. The best remedy for
partial collapse of the vital energies, from
these as from other causes, is Hostetter's
Stomach Bitters, which is at the same time an
agreeable and mind cheering cordial, and the
best possible invigorant in all cases OF debil.

other bodily ailments. 1t also couuteracts

Horse Feed.

Every good groom knows that sound
oats and beans and peas in due proper
tion, and at least a year old, are the very
best food for a galloping horse-the only
food on which it is possible to get the
very best condition out of race horse or
hunter. 1t also has recently become
known that horses do slow work and get
fat, indeed too fat, on maize, Indian corn,
which is frequently one third cheaper
than the best oats. In the East, horses
are fed on barley, and it is popular idea
with English officers who have lived in
Persia and Syria that the change of food
from barley to oats, often, when imported,
produces blindness in Arabian horses.
Now, although no men understand better
or so we'll how to get blood horses into
galloping condition as English grooms,
they do not, and few of their masters do,
know the reason why oats and beans are
the best food for putting muscular flesh
on horse. The agricultural chemist
steps in here, makes the matter very
plain, and shows that If you want pace,
Indian corn, although nominally cheaper,
is not cheap at all. When we feed a
bullock, sheep, or u pig for sale, after
it has passed the store stage, we want to
make it fat as quickly and as cheaply as
possible; but with n horse for work the
object is, give him musclc--in common
language, hard flesh. There are times
when it is profitable to make horse fat,
as, for instance, when he is going up for
sale. For this purpose an addition of
about a pound and half of oil cake to
his ordinary food has good effect. 1t is
especially useful when horse that has
been closely clipped or singed is in a
low condition. 1t helps on the change to
the new coat by making him fat. A horse
in low condition changes his coat very
slowly.
When from any cause there is difficulty
in getting a supply of the best oats, an
excellent mixture may be made ofcrushed
maize and beans, in the proportion of
two-thirds of maize and one of beans,
which exactly afford the proportions of
flesh forming and fat. forming food. Bran
is very valuable food in stable for re-
ducing the inflammatory effects of oats
and beans. Made into mashes it has
cooling and laxative effect, but used in
excess, especially in dry state, it is apt
to form stony secretions in the bowels Of
the horse. Stones, produced from the
excessive use of bran, have been taken
out of horses after death weighing many
pounds. London Lire Stock Journal.
