A very common error made in natural his
| tories where this fish IS mentioned is that it
| does not fly. says the Chambers Journal.
Its supposed flight is nothing more than a
| prolonged leap; it cannot devlate from a
| straight line and cannot rise a second time
| without entering the water This. briefly is

! where reference is made to this fish The
simplest way OF dealing with it is the profess
