with salt, which you never thought of,
and which improves the flavor very
greatly.
Frogs are always in season, and
make their appearance in the eastern
markets early in the spring, coming
from the south, but these are not equal
to the northern frogs, of which the
best come from Canada, and that is
why all the frogs in the markets are
La beled Canada Saddles" Those from
the south fetch from fifty to seventy
five cents per pound, and sometimes
one dollar, grading down TO the north
ern supply at forty-fve cents, this
reaching its full supply in July, the
season ending in October, when the
southern frogs come in again. Al
though the French people have always
been looked upon az the great frog eat
ers they do not come near us, for il is
estimated that during July the people
of New York alone eat over a ton
weight of legs, which is more than ia
eaten by the entire French nation, who
are, however, to be thanked for con-
vinsing the world that they were good
to eat.

the hand naturally it will proba-
bly, hit the mark, for the hand and the
eye act SO perfectly in concert when
they are so permitted that II is not the
training to aim which is required but
the more difficult matter of not inter
fering with our natural capacities by IN
sAempt to improve upon them or by
mistrusting them This theory can be
proved to be fairly correct by taking
up d gun, fixing both eyes on spot on
the wall, pulling the gun up TO the
shoulder, and then closing the left eye;

right one il will be seen that the eye end

sure that he will hit the mark. and lets
his hand and eye act Independently,
just so soon he viii spear frogs and not
before. For spearing fish under water
the law of refraction must be under
stood. but with frogs this is not neces-
sary. 1t will thus be seen that there is
quite some fun in the spearing of frogs,
and many parties are made up, with
sliding scale of prizes to be won by
those who are most successful IN turn
ing in bag of frogs within given
time, say one hour.
Another way is to shoot them, and
this requires even more skill than to
spear them, and only last year saw
well-known pigeon shot get well

of twelve years old, repeatedly wiped

Try il at a target, and If the sighting
is not quite true you can adjust it your
self by slightly fling the front sight,
but never touch the rear sight with a
file; if you do the rifle is ruined The
approach to the frog is made as in the
former case; and the great bulk of the
shots will be made within distance
of ten feet, but it must not be thought
that this is "cinch." In the first
place the rife is sighted to one hun
dred feet, and the line of the bullets
flight is; it win be seen that at ten feet
bullet aimed fer the center of a
frogs body, will go away above where
he is sitting. The position must bs
considered in which the frog is sitting,
and the correct amount of exposure"
gauged, then the aim must be taken
nearly an inch below where the bull
let is intended to hit, if success is de-
sired.
A pair of rubber wading boots, while
not absolutely necessary, are often
very useful, especially when the boat
gets aground. The best thing TO have
along, however, is country bred boy,
who belongs to the district, for he will

find, but care should be taken not to
frequent places where there is any
sewerage running into the water, as
not only is it bad air to breathe, but
also because last year four people were
nearly poisoned by eating the frogs
which had fed on this refuse. The
best places are the ponds and pools
where there is a green scum on the
water, and where the water lilies
flourish: also where there is a sudden
little bay In stream or river, forming
q sort Of back water, where the cur
rent does not sweep and the rUshes
grow. thiclsly, with here and there a
bare place on the bank, whore the
water has recently LETT it bare not to
be covered again until the rains of the
fall swell the stream. In the ponds are
the green backed giants, whose voice
is like bass drum, and in the little
bays and clear water are the brown
frogs which the inexperienced mistake
for toads and do not try for them. All
toads have speckled belly, in black,
brown and white, and a peculiar eye,
that. once seen, will always after be
recognized. Toads are seldom or never
seen near water.
The greatest difficulty the novice has
to contend with is the ability to see the
game. There may be any number of
frogs near him, but his eye must be to
