why Eels Are Objectionable.

Inasmuch as eels must go to sea in
order to propagate their species, they are
found not to multiply at all when placed
in ponds that are landlocked, although
in such places they will grow rapidly
and be healthy. 1t costs so little to pur-
chase young ones by the quantity that
this is no obstacle to the usefulness of
stocking inland waters with these fish.
They have many very important advan-
tages from the economic point of view,
inasmuch as they will feed on anything
dead or alive, will thrive in water clean
or muddy and at any temperature, and
require no looking out for.
However, in rivers like the Susque-
hanna, where gill nets are used, eels
are very undesirable. 1t is not unusual
upon hauling the nets in that stream
and in others farther south to find that
the catch has been entirely eaten up by
myriads of the squirming robbers, which
have left little besides heads and back
bones. 1t has been found advantageous
by the fish commission to plant eels in
the upper great lakes and in the Missis.

TWO ALTERNATIVES.


A shrewd Young Man Chooses An Un-
fair but the Expensive One.
A young man came to this city some
time ago with no capital, but with an
experienced and expert knack of getting
rid of money. He brought letters in
Producing him to the favorable attention
of several rich and influential New York
business men. His relatives in the west
persons of good social standing and
some nAeans-were very glad to grant
such courtesies to him in consideration
of his departure from their immediate
neighborhood. He had proved an ex-
pensive indulgence for them.
One of the gentlemen upon whom the
young man called was the president of
fourishing down town bank. This bank
president had been the intimate friend
Of the young mans father, and, without
thinking of the consequences, he offered
to do anything III his power to advance
the interests of the son of his old friend.
The young man had "a business scheme"
in his head and he wanted credit at the
bank until his expected renittances ar
rived. The bank president told him
that he might draw up to 81 900.
The checks came in promptly for large
and small amounts until the young
mans overdrawn account amounted to
81, 100 The hard headed cashier then
went to the president and suggested
that the bank ought to have some col
lateral. He frankly admitted that he
had no confidence in either the young
mans schemes or his intentions. The
president saw the force of his cashiers
suggestion, but, still chary of offending
his old friends son, he wrote personal
letter to the young man, saying:
MY DEAR YOUNG FR1END-It has been
pleasure for me to accommodate you with
small line of credit at the bank. Sufficient
time, however, has elapsed think, to enable
you to realize on your own resources, and
trust that you are now able to make a settle
inent. In fact, l am constrained to say that
you must either make your account good OF
cease drawing checks on the bank.
The young man was not thin skinned.
and this letter did not offend him, He
smiled as he read the closing sentence,
and stepping into the office of a friendly
broker, he penned the following note:
RESPECTED SIR-Accept my cordial thanks
for your kindness. OF the two alternatives
that you suggest l am obliged to accept the
latter. shall cease drawing checks on your
bank. With kindest regards, etc.
The kind hearted bank president was
somewhat nonplussed by this reply, and
he showed the note to his cashier. That
practical functionary looked over his
gold trimmed glasses at his superior and
said: "Umph! well, that is pretty slick.
But you have got rid of him cheaper
than l thought you would New York
