A Peculiar Fish.

"There is species of fish in the In
dian ocean which have very remark
able popularity, said Thomas G Tai
bot, Philadelphia naturalist. "Ehis
fish is provided with a short snout,
which it uses very much as sportsman
uses a gun Swimming close beneath
the surface of the water, it watches the
flies fitting about directly overhead,
and having selected one to its fancy
suddenly thr1sts its head out of the wa
ter and with unerring craftsmanship
discharges several drops of water at its
victim. Confused, and with its wings
drenched and rendered temporarily use
less by the watery projectiles, the insect
drops to the surface of the water, where
it is Immediately gobbled up by its vo-
racious enemy. These fish are said to be
able to bring down fly in this manner
from the height of two or three feet "

Every year thousands of new directories
are issued, but what becomes Of the old
onesY This question very seldom occurs
to the mind Of the public, and yet it is ev-
ident that the thousands of old directories
which are displaced by new ones every
year must go some place.
In the first place, some OF the old books
are not displaced at all, but are kept by
their owners until they fall to pieces, when
they are burned. Many of the directories
are so racked up at the end of the year
that they are not fit for further use, and a
great number of these are sold as old pa
per and are manufactured into cloth Then
~ large number of them are sold to secor Z
hand book dealers for prices ranging from
20 cents to 81 and are in turn sold by the a
to people who do not feel like paying "a
new directory, but do not begrudge : |
or SO for one year old. Many m.Sre OF
the old directories are sold directly by fthe
owners to other men for about 81. NLlpy
men take the new directory every year and
also keep their old ones, and in some Races
OF business may be seen collection of d.
rectories dating back for six or eight
years. Thus are the directories kept in
circulation until they wear out and ar.
thrown away or sold for old pa per.--To.

The English Boston.

In one respect old Boston Is very mucn
less attractive than its namesake across
the Atlantic. Its natural surroundings
arc decidedly unlovely and uninteresting.
Approached from any quarter, the pros
pect IL the same-fat land, unbroken by
the merest pimple of hill, stretching as
far as the eye can range, every acre OF it
cultivated TO the highest pitch Of perfec-
ton, the monotony of the scene varied
only by an occasional clump of wind toss
Ell trees, or n minaret topped windmill, or a
cluster OF heavily ti.atched cottages round
about one Of the bridges which cross the
innumerab!e dikes by which the country
is intersected in all directions, or by one
of the stately church towers for which the
county is famed
Straight as arrows run the fenland
roads, raised high upon banks Of luxuri
ant grass above the dikes, of which the
dark motionless water is rich with crow
foot and brooklimes and meadow sweet
and the great blue water forgetmenot. In
the more sequestered regions we may meet
with some of the ancient feathered iDhab-
itants OF fenland, with the sharp billed,
shrieking curlew, the white tailed sad
piper, the bullying Norway crows, the
heron and black backed gnlls, but tn 9 roar
of the Lincolnshire agricultural machin-
cry seems to have frightened them away

ssSpeakine Of chilling champagnes, "
said the captain Of the United States sur
yey steamer Albatross, 81 had an expert
epce at sea one Christmas which was not
only peculiar, but surprising. We had been
ON Z long cruise and were down near the
tropics at Christmas time. OF course we
observed the day as well as possible under
the circumstances, and one Of the features
was = fine dinner. We had some cham
pagpe ON board, but the weather was quite
hot, and having no ice we were at loss
70 find q way to cool the wine, which
could not be endured as it was. During
our cruise we had been making many deep
sea soundings, and it dawned upon, US
that by sinking the bottles down in the
sea about O half mile we could find water
cold as ice. This was an inspiration, 80
we thought, and we Immediately sent
down q lot on a wire for refrigeration.
ssAt the proper time it was drawn up
and placed OIL the table. and we found the
bottles delightfully."- chilled. When the
steward opened them, however, there was
no mon, 10 tie cork, and the wine looked
fiat and bad when served. What was our
establishment upon tasting 1t to ma that
it was pure salt water. Thought first that
it was bad practical joke and ordered
more wine sent down into the cold sea wa
ter. This was intended for the dessert
course, but when it was opened we were
disguised to again find only salt water
instead Of sparkling champagne, and our
pleasure was spoiled.
.sYou nre probably puzzled to find So
luton to the matter. Well, it is very sim
pie. In the deep sea, at the depth to which
We sank the wine, the pressure Is enor-
nous so great. in fact, that the salt wa
ter was forced into the bottles through the
pores in the corks, and being more deuse
than the wine completely absorbed it..
