streams and lakes at night to spawn, get ting swiftly back to his familiar ground long before the earliest call to breakfast
 He is of shining brightness among the finpy tribos wearing a stripe of silver on either side from head to tail, like the tin sel that decorates the trousers legs of got up military man. The smelt is a sharp bitter at this season and makes brisk sport in the early morning He affects the New England waters above all others and in his present lively state offers good sport to the angler with light rod and line. The tdeways and creeks are his fla vorito haunts, for it is in these that he finds the diminutive shrimp in plenty and snaps them up without stopping to work at problem of enumeration. Boys are not more fond of capturing him than full grown men are, counting it as the rarest sport as the sun comes up over the smoky water of frosty morning.
 With the wire spreader rig used in lis capture, two hooks being attached, it is usual when the fish run in plenty to take two fish at one and the same haul. Greedy old waterlogs who work for the market find tackle fishing much too slow for their purposes and go after nets that scoop them tured by tho wagon load through holes in the ice in winter, and n good days work not uncommonly nets 200 and 300 pounds. Fried in meal and hot lard or oil, they make a dish for a true epicure From No- vember on is the best time to go smelling. --Boston Courier.

THE WEASEL A CLEVER ooDGER.
One That Was Quicker Than the Shot of
 Sportsmau's Trnsty Gun.

Sportsinan's Trnsty Gun.
 Coming to our camp in the cool Ooto- Der evening after throwing our lines for bass at sunset in Little Bear pond, " said the Gotham sportsman, Two found that visitor had been there during our ab- sence- We had taken up our quarters in deserted shinglo camp, q low log struo- ! turo with splint roof. A 'deacon's seat stood before the open fireplace of stone, and behind laid thatohYise on the ground, were the pino boughs upon which we were to sleep. We had left our dunnage there earlier in the day and had hung up upon a peg in the wall two cartridges that we had shot. Aftor we had lighted up tho placo with glowing fire we saw that the partridges were gone from tho wooden peg on which they had hung and were nowhere to be seen. A long search about the camp revealed them at last on the opposite side, crowded half under the bottom log of the wall, as if an attempt had been made to get them out of the camp that way.
 'We hung them up again upon tho peg and in few minutes discovered weasel running about them trying to get them down again. He appeared to be regardless of our presence. Ho would run out to the end of tho peg and work away awhile to try to push the string that held thom over the end and then woulddart to the ground below and sit upright looking at themr his eyes all the while glowing like emer- aids At last picked my gun up, loaded with heavy charges of birdshot.
 "'Its no use trying to hit him., said Farris, my companion an old woodsman. He'll dodge tho flash of your gun. The most you can do is to scare him away.
 ''As the weasel sat upright and motion less on one of the bottom logs of the camp took careful sight and fired with my right barrel at him. The smoke cleared away, but no weasel was to be seen, all though tho place where ho had sat was peppered with fine holes where the shot had all struck within a space as large as the palm of my hand If the weasel had been hit, he would have been found and he had evidently dodged at the flash of the explosion or perhaps the fall of the hammer. But the shot had the effect of f frightening him away, for we had no moro visits from him during our stay. ''- Now York Sun.

Mind Your Eye.

"Most persons, says an oculist, regard the eyo as something rather apart from the rest of their. anatomy and not in much relation to it. They hardly realize that the condition of their sight affects their general health and are surprised to be 2 told that when glasses are needed the wearing of them may add to their avoir- dupois, make them sleep better or i'm provo their appetites. Yet this is truo, aa any oculist or physician knows. An over- worked eye nerve is as uuch of an agita- tor in the human systet. as any of the oth- CT nerves under abnormal pressure. Brain workers in particular should keep their eyes in the best possible condition and render them every possible aid.
 "One valuable help is sufficient rest.And right here it should be said that to stop using the eye in reading or writing and begin an animated brain stimulating con versation keeps up tho strain on the optic nerve. Strongsighted persons, too, abuse their eyes needlessly. No matter how well one can see, he should never work in a cross light. The light should always be from behind, if possible or from tho left side alonA A green shade helps materially in persistent, close work, and cold water syringod over tho closed lids is a useful tonic.

and last of all. In an unhealthy stimu- lation of prices an increased cost of all the needs of his home must long be his portion, while he is at the same time vexed with vanishing visions of increased wages and an easier lot. The pages Of history and experience are full of this lesson.
 .'An insidious attempt is made to ere ate a prejudice against the advocates of a safe and sound currency by the in- situation, more or less directly made, that they belong to the financial and bus mess classes, and are therefore not only out of sympathy with the common peo= pie of the land, but for selfish and wicked purposes are willing to sacrifice the interests of those outside their circle. I believe that capital and wealth. through combination and other means sometimes gains an undue advantage, and it must be conceded that the main tenance of a sound currency may in sense be invested with greater or less importance to individuals, according to their conditions and circumstances.
 "It is, however, only a difference in degree since it is utterly impossible that any one in our broad land, rich or poor, whatever may be his occupation and whether in the yelling in of a center of finance and commerce or in a remote corner of our domain can be really ben efited by a financial scheme not alike
 
 one should be excluded from common and universal lnterestiin the safe charac- ter and stable value of the currency of our country. We are al in business, for we all buy and sell; so we all have to do with financial operations, for we all earn money and spend it. We cannot es- cape oul linterdependence. Merchants and dealers are in every neighborhood, and each has its shops and manufacto- ries. Whether. the wants of man exist business and finance in some degree are found related in one direction to those whose wants they supply and in another to more extensive business and finance i. to which they are tributary.
 "A f1uctuation in prices at the seaboard is known the same day or hour in the remotest hamlet. The discredit or de- preciation in financial centers of any form of money in the hands of the peo- pie is a signal of immediate loss every where. If reckless discontent and wild experiments should sweep our currency from it's safe support the most defense- less of all who suffer In that time of dis tress and national discredit will be the people, as they reckon on the loss in their scanty support, and the laborer and workingman, as he sees the money he has received for his toll shrink and shrivel in his hands when he tenders it for the necessaries to supply his humble home.
 . DiSS use IL dS we may, the Hne or battle is drawn between the forces of safe currency and thdse of silver mono metallist. will not believe that if our people are afforded an intelligent oppor- tunity for sober second thought they will sanction such schemes, which, how ever cloaked, mean disaster and confu- sion, nor that they will consent by un- dermining the foundation of a safe cnr- rency to endanger the beneficial charac- ter and purposes of their government.

Those Feet.

Most of us do not give as much attention to our faithful servants down the ground there as we ought to. We keep them cooped up in light, leather cases, away from sun and air and free exercise. and yet expect them to perform their work without a complaint. Perhaps the golden rule might be well ap- piled to our treatment of our feet. At any rate, they should be clad and housed in com fort and cleanliness at all times. Summer de- mands that the feet have hosiery and shoes specially suited to the season-thin, cool, easy and frequently changed.
 Some people wear thick winter shoes all the summer, and as for socks, they never think of substituting any lighter weight for those worn in cold weather. Yes, and there are people who wear red woolen underwear all summer, too, but that does not prove the wisdom of doing either Comfort with the feet goes a long way toward comfort for the whole body.

The Doctors Escape.

'The worst was ever frightened, said Dr. E. D. Lucas, was when called at mid night to attend man reported to be in a dying condition. When I reached his bed side he was dead and had been for several hours His wife stood near seemingly calm, and when told her that her hus- band was dead she said: He is not dead. You are a physician, and you must cure him. If you do not I will kill you'll I looked at her and saw that was alone with maniac. In her hand she grasped a pistol and it was evident that she was determined to use it if did not restore life to her husband. I knew that I must keep my self possession or all would be lost and felt his pulse, leaned over him as If listening to his heart beats and finally said You are right. He is not dead, but must not be disturbed. He will awaken in the morning. AS soon as he awakens give him this medicine, and Ipoured some drops into glass of water. Fortunately the woman was satisfied and allowed me to leave. It was very narrow escape, and felt relieved when tho woman was taken to an insane asylum. "-Cincinnati EnQuirer.

. On the 18th C. apri Drake had sailed from Plymouth; on the 10th he entered Cadiz barbor on the 1st of May he passed out again without the loss of a boat or man. He said in jest that he had singed the king of Spain's beard for him. In sober prose he had done the king of Spain an amount of damage which million ducats and years labor would imper- feotly replace The daring rapidity of the enterprise astonished Spain and astonisho Europe moro than the storm of the West Indian towns. The English had long teeth, as Santa Cruz had told Philip s council, and the teeth would need draw. ing before mass would be heard again at Westminster.
 The Spnniards were gallant race. and a dashing exploit, though at their own ex- pense, could be admired by the country men of Cervantos. "So praised, we read, twas Drake for his yalor among them that they said if he was not Lutheran there would not have been the like of him in the world" A court lady was invited by the king to join party on lake near Madrid The lady replied that sho dared not trust herself on tho water with his majesty lest Sir Francis Drake should have her.-Anthony Froude in Long' mans Magazine.

New York, April 14.-The police census returns are nearly all in. The population of New York. according to these figures, is 1,88S,7S0, an increase since the census of the state board of health taken in 1893 of just S7,041. This is considered a very conservative estimate, and there is no doubt that when the actual figures are all in it will be materially increased.
