bined every thing that was excellent in
female person and character to be found
in all parts of the world. A rich money
lender residing in Constantinopie,
Bekian by name, resolved to marry one
of the women who had been lauded so
highly in the volume he had been read

people, and soon found girl Of the

Hervey group, in the Pacific, is SUI

submarine caverns, the homes of sharks

and ferocious sharks, which spare moth

with the toothsome dish by remarkabl,
style of fishing.
Arrived over the entrance to the sharl
cave, the fisherman leaves his canoe K
the care of his companions and dives t<
the bottom, carrying with him slip
knot of strong cord
He expects to find two or three shark,
at home, well satisfied and drowsy afte,
feeding in the lagoon, with their tails
toward the entrance. Selecting the
largest, the diver adroitly adjusts 9
moose over the tail, taking care that i,
hangs loosely. If he has another moose
he secures second shark.
The ark-catcher now. with one
bound on the white, sandy bottom, rises
to the surface, in order to assist his
friends in hauling up the fish. The as
tonished sleepers beneath suddenly find
! themselves ascending tail first to the
surface, Once inside the canoe. smart
blow from an ak between the eyes or on
the tail ends its career.
But accidents sometimes happen to
the bravest. One of the most success
full shark-catchers at Aitutaki was Reu-
bena, whose ancestors had excelled at
this perilous sport. Long practice had
made him almost'amphibious.
One Saturday morning he started out
with two companions in q canoe across
the placid lagoon to one of the more
distant islets. Grasping in his left hand
moose provided for the occasion, he
dove down to the entrance of a large
submarine cave.
On entering If. Raubena found several
sna- ..-4ily resting themselves. In a
trice slip-knot was skillfully passed
over the tail of the nearest shark with
out exciting its ire. The shark, at this
critical juncture, moved so that there
was not room enough for Reubena to
get out.
He now gently stroked the side of the
shark, and succeeded in inducing it to
move away, so as to permit his exit.
This operation is said to be very agree
able to the fish: but If. through narv-
BUSINESS, the SHARK De suOkea the wrong
way, its anger is sure to be excited, and
the divers life would be the certain for
cit.
Reubena was making his escape when,
to his dismay, another large shark came
back from feeding in the lagoon, and
blocked up the entrance with his un-
wieldy body. To get out now was i'm
possible, for even Reubena dared not
stroke the head of the monster.
The captive fisherman waited, hoping
the shark would go farther in 80 as to
leave the opening free. Unhappily the
huge fish did not move. Reubena's ag i.
ony became intense; seconds seemed to
be hours. Was he doomed to perish in
shark cave?
At last the shark passed on quietly
into the interior, and Reubena was bare
~ able to get out of the cave and rise to
the surface. His associates in the ca
noe, who had become anxious for his
safety, seized him by the hair and pulled
him in, blood flowing from his ears, eyes
and ncstrils. - Youths Companion.
