People who are accustomed to gas and
electric light would doubtless think it
very strange to depend chiefly upon Il
fish for Illuminating purposes; but the
candle fish is the chef, and in many
places the only light used by some of
the natives living i'll the northwestern
part of North America. This curiou,
and useful fish is of slender make, and
measures about II foot in length. 1t is
silvcry white, AMI is regarded by the mn
tives as the most delicious of edible
fishes. 1t is nearly impossible, how
ever, TO broil or fry it, because thu fish,
SO treated, almost completely mclts into
oil; and it is this latter quality which
makes it SO esteemed for lighting pur-
poses. When n candle is required, IL
dried fish is stuck, tail upwards, in a
lump OF clay or in IL cleft stick light
is applied to the tail, which Instantly
flames up and the fish burns steadily
downwaris, giving n light superior to
the best quality of "dips." In some
cases piece OF rush pith or II strip of
the innncr bark of the cypress tree is
drawn through the fish with II long
wooden needle, to act rs wick. The
fish is, however, most successfully used
as il torch, because in moving it through
the air, the rather dense smoke which
it cmits is got rid Of. The natives
find n profitable trade in bartcring the
fish with those Of other places, and lat
tcrly the extraction of the oil has be-
come a regular business in the districts
which it frequcnts. The oil is used for
many purposes, but is most highly
priced for its medicinal qualities 1t is
is said to be rs ciiicacous rs cod-livcr oil
in pulmonary diseases, whilst it has the
advantage of being much more palatablc

suits apiece, two OF which the soldier has
with him, the other three being kept in
the company stores for extraordinary oc-.
casioas, like grand review or Sunday
i'll town. When the soldier marches to
war he has on his hnck the very best of
these five suits. About his neck he car
ricS tin tag for the purpose of idcntia-
cation. In the skirt of his tunc is scwcd
roll of nntiscptic bandagc, and in his
knapsack Il hymn book. His load, in
Guiding everything, represents sixty-four
pounds four ounces.
The American Civil War first taught i'm
Europe the practical value of railways rs
facilitating military operations, and no
nation has taken this lesson moro
seriously to itself than Germany, which
now has special troops drilled for this
work alone. In fact she has railway
running thirty miles out of Berlin, built
and opcmtcd entirely by soldiers. 1t has
four stations; crosses sixteen masonry
bridges, three iron bridges and six cul-
vcrts. The traffic manager is field
officer, who is assisted 10y three lieu
tenants. The engine stall is composed
OF nine undcr-oiiiccrs rs engine drivers
and eighteen privatcs as stckcrs. The
tram stall comprises twcnty-four under
officers rs conductors and forty eight
privatcS as brakcmcn.
To Sum up the active war strength of
the German army We have the following
figures: Officers, is, t22; medical officers,
76O2; miscellaneous officers, ~ ,957; non
commissioned officers and men, ., 1865, :
?'o, making total of 2,23i ,63l, with
l39,I horses, 355S field guns nnl
l132 siege guns. These figures do not in

What Colors VIII photoyrau,,.

The time was when the photographer
required certain colors in dress to pro-
ducc good effects. Now, with experience
and the improvements in chemicals,
these restrictions are removed. lie can
photograph white rs well MS black. Tho
capable artist pridcs himself on his ability
to show the most delicate and elaborate
lace work on the bridal dress.
With these restrictions no longer nee
cssary, ! would say-wcar your most be.
coming dress.
Blue and pink will photograph white.
Purple will appear many shades lighter
than it is in reality.
Red and deep yellow appear black,
or nearly so.
Strong contrasts in dress or trimmings
will gives gaudy effect.
Subducd and quiet colors make the
neat picture. For example see the pictures
Of nuns, or the lovely pictures Of Quaker
Indies. -Ladies' Home Journal.

Catching Foxes With a Pishllook.

Francis West, OF High Knob, Penn,
according to the New York SIM. caught
several foxes recently in move! manner
He took twenty feet of strong Irvine and
tied to one end of it strong, large size
pickercl hook. This hook he baitcd
nicely with small but choice piece of
ground hog meat. He placed this care
lessly on the ground in the hollow and
hid himself behind a stump few feet
away, holding the other end of the
twinc in his hand. The Irvine was COW
cred with dead leaves and twigs. West
waited an hour or more before he was
rewarded by the sight of a fox, and thci,
saw big red fellow stealing down the
slope Oh the other side OF the hollow,
trailing splendid brush. The fox stealth
lily approached the piece of meat by
circling around it, each circle drawing
him nearer and nearer. Finally he
pounced upon it, seized it in his mouth,
and started away with it. lie had taken
but step or two when West gave the
line strong jerk. The hook caught in
the foX's jaw, and in spite of the ground
and lofty tumbling he INDUCED in, he
couldn't tear the hook loose or break the
line. West managed to tanglc the fox's
legs in the Irvine until the animal was as
helpless as fly in spiders web. He
then killed the fox with club. Since
then West has. captured three foxes in the
same way.

WORDS OF WISDOM.

Hunger and thirst are life, safety and
abundance death.
Sorrow is IL heavy burden, sadness a
heavier, but heaviest is anger
Humor usually tends toward good ma
turc, and everything that tends toward
good nature tends toward good grace.
Experience keeps dear school, but
fools will learn i'll no other. If YOU do
not hear reason, she will rap your kuuck-
les.
Noble examples stir us un to noble ac-
tions, and the very history of large and
public souls inspires man with generous
thoughts.
Whatever anyone docs or says, Unjust
be good; just MS if the gold, or the emc-
raid, or the purple were always saying
TINS: "Whatcvcr anyone else does. I
must be emerald and keep my color"
LAWS caunot prevent extravaganza;
and perhaps it is not always an evil to
the public. A shilling spent idly by
fool may be picked up by II wise person,
who knows better what to do with it; IL
is, therefore, not lost
DO not think of your faults; still less
of others faults; in every person who
comes near you, look for what is good
and strong; honor that; rejoice in it;
and, rs you can, try to initiate it; and
your faults will drop of like dead leaves,
when their time comes
II is hard for naughty man ever to
forgive one that has caught him in u
FAULT, and whom he knows has reason to
complain of him; his resentment never

tagc he has lost, and found means to mako

Envy's memory is nothing but row OF
hooks to hang mp grudscs on. Some
peoples scnsibility is n mere bundle OF
avcrsions; and you hear them display
md parade it, not in rccounting the
things they nrc attached to, but in telling
you how many things and persons "thcy

Cnrc Of Eggs.

Insects prepare their eggs to withstand
the cold of winter, in various ways. The
mourning cloak butterfly lays her eggs
to the number OF several hundred around
. willow or black-birch twig and covers
them with II thick mucilaginous matter
which protects them from rain and cold.
The gypsy moth lays her eggs on the
trunks of oaks and other trees in a mass
Of hair or down taken from her own body
These two modes of protecting eggs are
common to many moths and butterflies,
and those which encirclc the twigs are
popularity known rs "fairy bracelet ="
They are thus protected against the clc-
ments. The temperature which develops
the eggs is equal to that required to
develop the food plant. BY law of
nature, when the feast is ready the
feastcrs are on hand to enjoy it.-I,rt-

Arrica's Snow.Crowncd Mountafs

When the scientific world laughed ct

reported over forty years ago that he bad

brought up in Switzerland, and fought
to know II snow-cappcd peak wlcn see

history of modern discovery j Central
Africa, and it is only within tie past few
weeks that we have had the details of
DIR. Hans Meyers final riumpi over

had defeated the efforts Il II number OF
explorers.
Rcbmann would have felt repaid for
nil the ridculc that vas showcrcd upon
him if he could hive seen DR.. Meyers
companion, a practied Alpine climber,
with his ice axe am rope and snow spec
tacles cutting steps up the steep leo
slope. Both climbers paused to rest
every ten minuts, because the rarity of
the air made continuous effort impossible.
In these pcrcis of rest they could dim
ly see the ia distant plains through tho
openings ii the clouds below them.
Then, WIN on their second attempt,
three das after their first effort, they
reached the highest point in Africa, about
10, $50 feet above the sea, they found
themselves on the edge of great crater

martlc sinking iii terraces from the edge
of .hc crater to the floor, while through
II great gap i'll the west wall mighty

imagined that an abysmal crater would
hc found there until Meyer stood on its

my touch, thy word, sets all the world
agiow,
Faith soarsserener, haunting doubts shrink
low,
Aoashed before the sunshine of thy face.
NOT press of crowd, nor waste of distance
serves
10 part US. Every hush of evening brings
some hint of thee, true-heartei friend of
mine;
And as the farther planet thrills and swerves
When toward it through the darkness Sat
urn swings,
Even so my spirit feels the spell of thine.
Ellen Burroughs, in the Ccntu,u
