those of British America. Among the
special results of the work of the COM
mission has been the discovery of new
food fish of great economical value. 1t
is fish of species allied to the Engli,h
sole, to which it is considered by New
York epicures as greatly superior. The
largest individuals measure three feet in
length, and weigh up to five pounds 1t
has been called the "pole-founder," or
olyptocephalos cynoglossus. The pole
founder will find market corresponding
to the turbot in Europe, in fishing for
which many thousand vessels are occu-
pied"
"What other special object has claimed
the attention of the commission?'
"Another special point is the tempera-
ture OF the ocean at different depths and
latitudes with the purpose of establish
ing the relations between this condition
and the presence and absence of certain
food fishes A most remarkable phenom-
enon OF times of previous years has been
the entire absence from the waters north
of Long Island and Vineyard Sounds of
the menhaden or porgy. This fish, as is
well known, occurs on the coast of the
United States during the summer season,
in countless myriads, especially in mid
summer along the coast of Maine, where
some fifty steamers are engaged, usually
for several months, in catching them by
seine or purse-nets, and taking them to
factories, where they are converted into
oil and guano. During the memory of
man no failure of this fish to reach the
coast of Maine during the summer season
is on record, and yet, during the present
year the entire fleet returned to winter
quarters in Southern New England and
Long Island Sound without capturing a
single fish,"
Glow do you account for this"
at is more than probable that this re-
markable state Of things was caused by
the cold currents coming down from the
Labrador coast, and this is supposition
that is to some extent at least verified or
substantiated by the observations of the
Fish Commission. The variation in the
numbers of mackerel on the Eastern
coast is probably due to the same cause,
so it becomes a matter or great import
ance to ascertain the laws or normal tenn
perature of the ocean at the different
depths, SO as to have some means of an
ticipating, determining or estimating the
probable abundance of these fish (men-
haden and mackereD in sufficient season
to warrant or prevent expenditures in
special efforts in their pursuit"
"What else has the commission accom-
plishedY'
"The commission is provided with war;
ious apparatus for capturing marine ami
mails and pl nts, and, besides securing
representative series for the National
Museum, has also collected during the
summer, as in previous years, large num-
bers of duplicate specimens for the prin-
cipal educational institutions in the
United States. These, when properly
identified and labeled, will be distributed
to such institutions as are prepared to
take necessary steps for permanent care
and exhibition"
"When do you return to Cape Cod?'
"To-morrow morning, to remain with
the commission and continue the work
until driven away by the autumnAl
storms"

SAMARITAN'S GIFT.
YOUNG MEN

Who for the first time have beenin trouble,
we would warn against the use of that vile
drug Balsam Copabia. 1t sickens the stom-
ach, brings on weakness, deranges the kid
news, and is worthless as cure; and to
avoid this drug avoid the quack. SAMAR-
ITAN'S GIFT is a positive cure in two or
three days, without exposure or trouble.
How many suffer for months both body
and mind, all of which could be avoided BY
the use of one package of Samaritan's Gift.
