QUEER ANIMAL. Mr.. J. G. Kirk
brought to this Off 20 the other day a
queer fish caught in a pond on his
place. It is about four inches in length
and resembles cat fish in appearance.
The fms are rather small and the tail
long and tapering. Besides the fms it
has four legs. In the water it swims
by means Of the fms but taken from
the water it makes uss of the legs. The
fellow is somewhat OF a stranger in
these parts.
OAT MEAL WATER.-WOrkmen who
are out in the hot sun these days should
be careful in the use Of water. The
best drink is that known as oat meal
water. The method Of manufacture
is simple. Put liberal lump of ice
into pail with few handfuIs Of oat
meal; fill up with water, add the juice
Of lemon and little sugar, only just
enough to give interest to the decoc-
tion, and the result is a drink that any
man will be grateful for on sWelter-
ing dog day.
