The Economic Value of Sharks.

The economic value of sharks is not

venison, etc. In the Mediterranean the
young sharks taken from the old ones
are esteemed, and the ventral portions
of the adult sharks. Fifty thousand
dollars worth of shark fins are imported
yearly from Calcutta to China, where they
are in great demand for soup. On some
parts of the African coast the shark is
valued as god and dubbed the Jon-Jon.
Its mouth is the sure and only way TO
heaven, and three or four times q year a
human victim is sacrificed to 1t. In
some OF the islands of the Pacific the
teeth are greatly regarded as weapons,

swords, daggers and spears. forming

regular armor, made of cocoanut fibre,

A GhOStly Purchase.

Mrs. Jones was down town making
some purchases one day last week, and
among other things bought luminous
match safe. which could be seen in the
gloom of the darkest night. the manu-
facturers announced. IL represented a
face with open eyes and mouth, and
looked simply like a china mask in the
broad light of day. Mrs. Jones took it
home, hung it up on the wall at the foot
of the bed and forgot all about it. That
night Jones came home late; he had
been kept out on business by custom
er who wanted his goods invoiced, and
he had told Maria not to sit up for him.
About midnight he came in, remarked
with chattering teeth that it was turn
ing cold, or he had the ague, turned
down the light which had been left
burning for him, and tumbled into bed.
The next moment he would have been
snoring but he happened to open his
eyes and he sat up in bed with one ter
rife whoop of Good Lordn' ''Are you
saving your prayers, Jeptha?" asked
Mrs. Jones. sleepily; ''you needn't be
so emphatic. Oh-h-h-h-h-h-h-h gr-a-
c-ious goo -dness! it's a ghost.'' she
screamed as her eyes opened On the
ghostly face at the foot of the bed.
Never did two people make such time
getting out of any place as they did in
vacating that room. Then they sat
down on the top of the stairs to consult
as to the next course of procedure.
''1t was the ghost of my father" said
Jones' shaking like leaf. 81 recog-
nized the features instantly. OR,
Maria, what can it mean? 1t must be
son0 awful warning. II don't feel

'phat' got yees now?"
They told Bridget as well as they
could, and that female answered com
posedly:
1.-The evil one will fly away wild yees
yet; if it's a ghost me own two eyes
wad like to see it." and she marched
into the bed room, gave wild yell, and
came out in triumph with the illumin-
ated match-safe in her hand; Mrs.
Jones laughed Historically, but Jones
was downright mad.
'Women are such FOOLS" he ex-
laimed, savagely; bought the thing
herself and hung it up, and then took
it for ghost; Pm thankful I'm not a

Practical Education.

The Rural Ne,U Yorker, in comments
ing upon the methods of education of the
present day, says: "It was Charles
Lamb who said that his idea of educat-
ing girl was to turn her loose in we'll
chosen library. Of course he was think
ing of a girl as companion, not as a
clerk or lawyer. In our own case,
some of the brightest and most intelli-
gent of the many delightful women we
meet have never had college educa-
ton, know nothing of mathematics and
not much of science; but instead, have
dipped deep into good literature, and
can take an intelligent interest in, and
give sound opinion upon, the great
questions of the day"
IF man means what he says he will
be deliberate in his speech, and state
his purpose in plain, simple fashion.
Intending suicide, he will not make
motions at himself with razor in the
presence of his family five or six times
q day. Mr.. Micawber's style of speech
is associated with his style of action
All difficult, vaporing, tragic, superlative
words exhaust the speaker. His strength
all goes out through his mouth, and lie
is thus left helpless to do anything.
