n MOlE'S EYES.


A Popular Error Corrected by a Reputable
German Naturalist.
Carl Hess, the German naturalist, has
proved by minute m~tcroscopical investi-
CATION that the eye of the mole is per-
fectly capable of seeing, and that it is
not short-sighted, as another naturalist
(kadyi1 would have us believe. Hess
maintains that, in spite Of its minute
dimensions millimeter by 90 MILL.
meter-the eye Of this little creature
possesses all the necessary properties
for seeing that the most highly de-
yeloped eye does-that it is, indeed. as
we'll suited for seeing as the eyes of n
mammal, and that in the matter of re-
fraction it does not differ from the
normal eye. In order to bear out the
theory of short-sightedness, the physio-
logical reason was adduced that in its
subterranean runs the mole is accus-
toned to sec things at close distances.
and that its eye had become gradually
suited to near objects. But to this Hess
objects that the mole, when under
ground, most probably makes no use Of
his eyes at all, as it would DO impos-
sible to see any thing, owing to the
absence of light; but that when he comes
to the surface, and especially when no
is swimming, he does use his eyes. In
order to accomplish this, he only has to
alter the erect position OF the hairs
which surround and cover his eyes, and
which prevent the entry of dirt when he
Is under ground, and at the same time
to protrude his eyes forward. Nature.

DtCOYlNC FISH ON LAKE ERIE.
Sitting In Little Stove-Ueated Shanties,
Ready for All Sorts of Game.

The fishermen along the shore of
Lake Erie are already looking to their
shanties preparatory to beginning de-
coy fishing through the ice, says a De-
troit correspondent of the N. Y. Sun.
As soon as the ice is strong enough to
bear, the little fishing shanties will be
moved out to the fshing-grounds, and
in favorite localities little villages of
miniature houses, with the smoke curl
ing up from their chimneys, will be es-
tablished on the frozen lake. The
shanties are about four and half feet
high, so that man can sit comforta-
bly, in them, and large enough to hold
the man and small but effective
stove.
A hole is cut in the ice, usually at the
side of some bank or edge of cham
mel, where the fish are apt to be run
ming; then the house is moved over the
hole and the fire is started. The fish
erman sits on seat, under which is n
box in which to hide his fish, as it is
important to keep his good luck a
secret lest his neighbors surround him.
If the little village of lighthouses
moves close around him his chances

are gone, not only because the sur
rounding fishermen will intercept the
fish, but because the noise OF chopping
and walking on the ice will certainly
drive them away. for, although you
can talk or sing as much as you please
in the fish-house, the least tap upon
the ice will brighten away the fish.
The house not only makes warm
shelter for the fisherman, where he
can sit comfortably protected from the
wild blasts that sweep over the frozen
lake, but, as it has no windows and the
light is shut out above, he can see
clearly eight or ten feet down into the
waters of the lake. 1t is really beautl-
full sight to watch the decoy darting
hither and thither, and the game steal
ing silently up to the hole or rushing
ut it as if about to swallow it, tin fins
and all.
The decoy is made of wood, colored
to suit the fancy of the fishermen, and
not much like anything in nature. 1t
is three or four inches long and is
carved in the shape of fish and heavi-
ly weighted with lead toward the
head. 1t has four horizontal fins on
its sides and one fin on its back. To
one of small row of rings on its back
one end of the string is hooked, and
the other end is attached to stick
about foot long. With this stick the
fisherman plays the decoy, making it
dart about in the water as nearly as
possible in q triangle. Sometimes a
school of perch will gather about the
hole if they are large enough they are
speared, if too small for that they are
caught with hook and line. Or school
of herring take their place, and then
the fisherman substitutes for hook and
bait white collar button on the end
of string, this the white fish swallow
eagerly, and the fisherman gently lifts
them out of the ice before they can dis
gorge.
Then there is a swish, and ten
pound pike rushes in and scatters the
small fry in every direction. He stands
motionless watching the decoy, which
the fisherman must play like lightning,
for if the pike touches it he discovers
and resents the deception, rushing
away faster than he came. At the first
opportunity the fisherman strikes his
spear into the fishs shoulder, or, il he
can't get fair stroke, and the water
is shallow enough, he pins him to the
bottom until he browns.
This is favorite sport in Michigan,
and is zealously pursued, sometimes
so late in the spring that the shanties
sail off into the lake on the melting ice.
