A Story for the Marines.

GA warm day like this" said the
nautical coop yesterday afternoon al
Eighth and Chestnuts streets, as he
shook the beads of perspiraton from
his walking cane "reminds me of a
pretty warm place once got into, and
on a freezing cold day. Don't know
what a 'csse whale is, do you? Well,
it's whale that has a cavity in its
head which holds Just one-third of all
the oil that the whale produces. The
body of seventy-fve barrel cease
whale yields fifty barrels ard the head
twenty-five barrels. The incident |
speak of happened while was on board
the whaling-ship Eliza f.. Mason.

whale, and after the head was split open

by seeing the surface of the oil burst
into a blaze, caused, as | afterward
learned by one of the crew accidentally
dropping box of burning matches.
The only thing to do was to dive under
the oil, and | did it, with my sheath
knife in my teeth. turned my head

heat was so intense that | had to dive

to dig my way out with the knife. l
managed to dig hole large enough to
thrust my head through, and then, by a
mighty effort escaped into the sea. 1t
was a pretty tight squeeze, can tell
you, and my body was so warm that it
made the water hiss around me. The
Captain of the vessel thought had been
burned to death, and when i swan to
the side of the vessel he was so fright
ened that he told me there was only one
thing that prevented him from turning
gray in night" "
"What was that?" asked the listener.

The DOg-Fisll.

The lake dog-fsh (Anaid-OceUicdndd)
is a lazy, numbering fellow belonging to
the ganoids, phlegmatic in habits, and
of no merit either for the table or to
amuSe the angler; his flesh is soft and
pasty, and he is largely known as the
Lawyer, because, forsooth, he ''will
bite at anything and is good for nothing
when caught" To see him in the water
he has a contemplative appearance,
something Ike a bull-terrier looking
out from under the gate, and he is al
ways ready for anything that comes
along, his appetite being Unsuitable. He
is not swift, or if so, seldom exercises
his powers, moves about but little in
search of prey, preferring, Micawber-
like, to wait for something to turn up.
He will station himself boldly and open
ly in the midst of the favorite feeding
grounds of smaller fish, and there lie
for hours motionleSs, except for an oc-
casional twitch of fin or tail, and no
matter how hungry, still retain his posi-
ton with fish whisking about under his
very nose. His policy is sure to lure
his victims into security and cause them
to look upon him as a harmless fixture, by
w
BY and by some youngster bolder than
the rest swims close to his half-open
Jaws, when, with sudden snap,
the victim is whisked out of
sight, head foremost down his
broad gullet, without ever being missed
by his companions. Small catfish and
perch-stupi pid creatures-in spite of
spiny and horny armor, are his favorite
game; and the former, for all his we'll
known prediction for their race,
would seem never to learn lesson or
to be i'll the least put out by his pres
ence. Herring, ciscOes and white-tish
also contribute to his diet, as does the
spawn of all the tinny tribes, and he is
a marked feature on the breeding
grounds of the Coregonii in November
and December. The Great Lake trout
he shunS lest he catch a Tartar, in the
presence of the latter being content to
play the part of the jackal; and the
haunts of the masq' 'allonge are avoided
after he succeeds to years of discretion.
In the most unparental manner he de-
yours the spawn of his own species; but
his spouse appears in somewhat better
light, since she defends the impregnated
ova of her own body-though fast
enough to devOur those of others
watches over them until the youngsters
are hatched, and then guards and pro-
tects them from her own and other spe-
cies with all the devotion of brooding
hen. When all other means of defense are
futile she opens her capacious nav and
receives therein the younglngs, with
which she rushes away to some place
of safety, when they are again released.

CuriOsities Of the Cholera.

r. G. Jennings, +. r. A. S., writes
to the PdU.MaU Gazette, "to call at
tention to the attack of cholera on
Southern and Western Europe now
due. Such visitations come with more
regularity than most people imagine.
1t is remarkable that every attack on
Egypt is followed by an extension to
England. Such cholera is not of the
true Asiatic type; it makes its appear
ance first in the Hadiiz, on the tropic of
Cancer, in the neighborhood of Mecca,
some times the year before, some
times the same year, in which it ap-
pears in Egypt. In 1881 it broke out
at Mecca, the same year appeared in
Egypt, and travelled in northwest di-
rection to England. In 1887, six years
after, it appeared in England again,
having started from Hadjiz in 1885
In 1S48, eleven years after, it broke out
at Mecca, appeared in Egypt, and
reached England the same year. In
1854, six years after, it was in En-
gland again, having broken out at
Mecca two years before. and spread to
The Brookhaven leader., 1883-08-09

Egypt. In 1865, eleven years after, 10
broke out at Mecca, spread to Egypt,
and reached England the same year.
In 1871, six years after, it broke out
near Mecca, but extended as far as the
north of France only. In 1882, eleven
years after, another attack on Europe
fell due. 1t will be observed that
these outbreaks occur every six and
eleven years alternately; great out
break happening every seventeen years..
as 1881, 1S48, 1865 and 1888. In every
instance in which Egypt has been at
tackled, Southern and Western Europe
have suffered. There has been
some delay in regard to the
commencement of the present attack;
but that is a reason for believing
that the advance will be rapid. In the
other great attacks the cholera has adj
vanced from Egypt TO England in few
months On the 25th of March, 1865,
the disease broke out at Mecca; on the
I'd of June it appeared at Alexandria,
killing 10000 people in Egypt in three
months; on the 18th of June, only nine
days after, it reached France, and on
the l 1th of September it was in England.
1t would appear, then, that the cholera
which visits our shores is not Indian,
but Arabian diseases geEerically the
same, specifically different. There are,
as | endeavored to show eleven years
ago, when | stated that the next great
attack would be in 1888, as matter
of fact, seven different species, which
descend from the atmosphere at seven
different points, situated equally distant
from each other along the tropic of Can
Ger, and move in a northwest direction.
The Indian and Arabian streams inter-
sect in En- land. As matter of fact,
the Indian, from its much longer course,
eXhausts itself in Russia and Germany,
and in all probability we have never had
an attack of it, unless, perhaps, it be
when the North of England suffered in
1881. AS regards the assertion one so
often hears, that all cholera can he
traced to the Ganges, what is to be said
about the cholera which commenced last
July in Mexico, and last January was
carrying off by fearful ravages an inn
mense number of victims? Before the
present year closes expect to hear that
cholera has broken out in every quarter
of the globe"
The Brookhaven leader., 1883-08-09
Oysters.

That is strange idea, so prevalent in
some communities, that oysters are
highly nutritious and easy of digestion.
1t is true that the raw oyster digests. in
about the same time as cooked beef,
while stewing adds twenty per cent. to
the required time, for the reason that
they are rather rich in albumen, like
eggs, always rendered more indigestible
by thorough cooking. In the matter of
muscle food, oysters fall below all of the
fish and meats, or equal that of pork,
having about one-half of that of herring,
halibut and trout, just one-half of
chicken, one-sixth of cheese, less than
one-fourth of Southern corn, not one
half of that of beans and pease, being
far inferior to beef.
Still they have long been popular
from the fact that some noted physi-
clan, who had studied his taste more
than this subject, once decided in their
favor, supposing that all might be as
fond of them, and that fondness is about
the same as wholesomeness. As these.
with all fish, become early putreseent in
hot weather, they must be Objectionable

How Temperance May Be Taught in
the Public Schools.

Here are few suggestions from no
less a body than the London School
Board, which were issued in 1877 as
letter of instruction to the teachers OF
that greatest of cities, relative to Tenn
perance teaching in the city schools.
The circular reads, however, as if it had
been sent out by the w. G. L. U., and
is in the main applicable TO every pub
lie school in America.
l Whenever the opening lesson of the day
from the Holy Scriptures-suppies a suitable
opportunity for the occasional instruction of
children, by examples, warnings, cautions and
admonitions. in the principles OF the virtue of
Temperance, the teachers should avail them
selves of it.
. The reading-books and copy-books for use
in schools might be rendered largely helpful
in this direction. Such reading-books and
cOpy-boOks are now to be had, and might well
be placed on the requiSitiOn form.
The picture cards, diagrams and WALL
papers illustrative of the subjects of indus
try, sobriety and thrift may be benehcially
exhibited as part of the wall furniture of
schools.
Songs and hymns, at the selection of the
teacher, on the subject of Temperance,
should be incorporated with the musical ex-
eraiscs of the school.
5 That the board be recommended to grant,
free of charge, the use of their schools after
the usual school hours, for illustrated lectures,
by wcll-qualifed lecturers TO children attend
ing the schools, but that the attendance at
such lectures be purely voluntary on the part
of both teachers and scholars the lecturers
and their subjects in each case to receive the
approval of the School Management Com
init. ee.
q That the Works Committee be instructed
TO supply Il drinking fountain in the play
ground of every Board School.
The board has recently re-issued this
circular, showing thereby that the in
tervening period of six years has not
changed opinion as to the necessity of
this effort, and perhaps also the fact
that the instructions have not been as
thoroughly followed as was desired.
We learn, however, from the Temper
dncs Record that one lecturer of the
National Temperance League has de-
livered in the Board Schools no less than
$50 lectures within the past three years.
Still another pleasant circumstance to
note is the fact that one of the London
teachers standing very high in the pro-
f sSion, but never at all interested in
the Temperance question. was led to an
investigation of the matter by finding
that 2i0 of his 800 boys had becomd
total abstainers. 1t is recorded as re-
suit of his studies that she and all his
house" became pledged abstainers.--
