L. N Frog q Fish?

Il frog FISH? This is the problem
which che officials of the Dominion fish
cry department have recently had to
consider. Petitions were forwarded to
the department from the inhabitants uf
Northumberland. Ont. praying for .
close season for frogs. a lucrative trade
in he shipment of frogs legs had been
done ia that county, but il was discov-
cred that the very time when the frogs
are spawning is one when the greatest
havoc IL wrought among them. Posi-
bly, change will be made in the fishery
laws SO rs to embrace frogs. The officers
say that in their enbryotic stage frogs
ARE certainly fishes, but later on they
take an amphibious character.

decision affecting the present method of

question of what constitutes s.distin-

prohibited by law, the court unanimously
holds that any mark whatever other than
the single one appropriate to designate the
intention of voter, is distinguishing
mark. The case was brought in the con-

Union Between kinsfolk Prevails to q

Matrimony in Germany is singular
institution. There are so many restric-
tions. such a complement of formalities
10 be submitted to that marriage is
rather unpopular than otherwise. The
prevailing idea is to keep money in the
family, and to attaiIfthis end the peo-
pie, so sensible and level-headed in
many respects, are willing TO go any
lengths. \ man may even have for his
wife his cousin, his aunt, his step
mother and his sister-in-law com
bined-he doesn't care so long as
he has a hold on the money. The
number of marriages among first
cousins Is countless, and the results
appalling. How many idiots there are

in his family il is quite a common oc-
curreuce for an uncle 10 marry his
niece; and q man viii sometimes wed

legal for boy 10 marry At fourteen

ABOUT MOODS.
Being Unfair TO Ones Self and ozes
Friends

Being Unfair TO Ones Self aad Ores
Friends
Moods may be either JOYOUS or melan
choly, but we are aps 20 think Of them
as the latter. because the JOYOUS mood
infiicts nc sting upon its posseSsor. aud
detracts nothing from the happiness OF
friends and kindred. Very much to be
pitied are those people who are called
moody. They are invaria bly, social
wet blankets; nor can they help this,
for there Is 40 uplift IN moodiness. To
the moody person the blue sky IS OBJ
scured. the cloud OF the moment is
fog which blots out light and hope, the
raw wind Is from the east, aad cuts
like knife
In home life the presence Of one who
is a victim to moods is a real calamity.
The children feel like eulpritS: their
perfectly-innoeent mirth Is rcpressed.
they speak under breath Converse
ton languishes, ard laughter IS extin-
guished Around the moody person
whether father, mother or sister, there
seems TO hang q thin but evident veil
OF gloom, which no sallies OF wit or soft
persuasionS of affection can penetrate.
One by one the family seek escape from
an influence so distressing.
MoodineSs carried 20 its last extreme
becomes insanity, of which il IS often
q premonitory symptom As rule, it
has its root in some physical derange-
ment; the spleen. or the liver, OF the
stomach Is responsible for it.
When the digestive organs are work
ing tremendously with the rest Of the
body. and the physical functions are in
order, people are seldom moody. Good
temper and good spirits depend largely
on good health.
Sometimes the moody person is bur
dened financially, is carrying. so 70
speak, too much sail. is Obliged to un-
dertake more than his income justiteS.
The remedy here Is obvious Get rid
OF the needless load Live as common
sense and honesty dictate. within the
wise limits of the daily earnings II
the spending IS in excess of the earning
there is reason for mental uneasineSs;
if the balance is on the right side. the
result, as Mr.. Micawber tersley stated
it in his famous resume OF u similar
case, is bliss
MoodineSs often has neither the
apology OF a good reason nor the excuse
of bad one TO offer. II is simply a
synonyme for selfishness. deserving the
condemnation of conscience. To bc
driven by ones moods is fair neither 10
ones self nor to ones friends.-Har-

French maritime chronicler Jal gives

were taller than the highest noun

horseback delivering his orders Sail

spectacle, middls-aged men. and in the
blocks about her rigging were dining
halls whore they sustained life dur

When passing through the Strait of
Dover on her way northward she stuck,
but the captain, with ready invention,
ordered her sides - De literally be-
smeared with soap. and she slipped
through, leaving the cliffs OF France
ard England white for ever after

Down 10 within century ago this
gigantic ship was known among En-
