of others, had darted from the water,
this one striking the man fairly in the
forehead. The gurnard are also chased
by dolphins, and they are frequently
seen to rise in schools, to escape from the
larger fish, while lowering above them
are watchful gulls and man-of-war birds,
ready to steal them from the jaws of their
enemies of the sea.
In company with these fying-fsh may
often be seen curious white bodies, with
long arms and black eyes. The are fly
ing-squids, members Of the cuttle-fsh
family, and the famous bait of the New
foundland c od-ishermen. On the Banks
they are often seen in vast shoals, and
during storms tons of them are thrown
upon the shore. When darting from
wave to wave, they resemble silvery ar
rows, often rising and boarding ships in
their headlong flight. So valuable are
they for bait, that four or five hundred
vessels at st. Pierre are engaged in catch
ing them by means of jiggers.
Many of the squid family leave the
water when pursued. Even the largest
of them, often forty or fifty feet long,
have been seen to rise ten or fifteen feet
in the air, and sail away as if propelled
by some mysterious force, their hideous
arms dripping and glistening. They are
certainly the largest and strangest OF the
flyers without wings.-Sk Nicholas.

Helping One Another.

The efficacy of each Christian is aug
mented by a union with others; and by
a concentration of effort and co-opera-
ton we may hope for the largest sue
cess. Independence, as was clearly
shown by a writer in Jul last issue, is
an impossibility. Hence God has Or
dained another and a better order Of
things. 1t is that of mutual dependence.
This is the law of IL being, ordained
to insure the greatest efficiency. And
when Christian men are brought to feel
that they have one work and are seek
ing to compass one end, the speedier
and the greater will be their SUCCESS.
But while this is true, it must not in
terfere with individual effort. Indeed,
an intelligent recognition of this prin-
ciple only serves to impress us with the
Importance of personal fidelity to duty
in every relation of life and in every
sphere of service. Every individual
and all the talents of every individual are
needed to secure the largest results.
The best way of helping others, there
fore, is for each one to stand in his own
appointed lot and thus prove himself
faithful in doing his own work instead
Of imposing it upon others.-Baptia
WeeklY.

Flying-Fisll.

In the sea there are three flyers that
really, from the extent Of their flights,
deserve the name. Those of our readers
who have been at sea, especially in the
South, may have seen the common flying
fish, with its brilliant blue-and-silver
body and lace-like, sheeny wings. From
the crest of a blue wave they dart, singly
or in focks, huttering along, rising and
falling, turning in curves, and returning
to the water with a splash-perhaps to
fall a victim to some watchful bonito Tor
dolphin) that has been closely following
them beneath the water. These priva-
teers Of the sea are their greatest enc
mics, as they rise in the air following
them under water, and emerging Just in
time to catch the luckless flyers as they
descend. The dolphins will take great
leaps Of twenty or thirty feet in follow
ing the poor fying-fsh, which, notwith-
standing their long wings and wonderful
powers, often fall victims to their %tireless
pursuers. They frequently fly aboard
vessels at night, perhaps attracted by the
lights, or, it may be, caught up by the
wind from the crest of some curling
