Many kinds of fish are very sensitive
to shock of any kind, the free-swim-
ming and game fishes being more sus-
ceptible than bottomfeeding fish,
which are duller generally. In an
aquarium in this city some years ago a
lady who was looking at a tank of
young sand porgies stood tapping upon
the glass face with her fan. The
porgies started off swimming as
though they were crazy, and nearly
all of them died presently, apparently
from shock. Some fish occasionally
stick to rocks. and in aquariums they
sometimes stick to the glass front OF
the tanks. They get close to the glass
and then lower themselves, with their
fins. like suckers. hold them against it.
Seen in this way they present very
striking and attractive appearance,
and people stop to look at them, and,
it may be, touch the glass in front of
the fish with a cane or umbrella, ''to
see if it's alive" as the saying is, or to
see if it will move off, and it may be
that thereby the fish will be greatly
frightened. In all public aquariums
care is taken to protect the fish, SO far
as possible, against disturban

Be Careful of Coiors.

The woman with a taste for dress
says: ''Brunettes are always mistak-
ing their color. The prejudice in
favor of clothing them all in red has
spoiled lots of pretty women. Red does
suit some brunettes, usually the clear,
pale ones, but yellow suits a great
many more, and pale blue is often
charming for them. The fact is. peo-
pie are far too much Influenced by the
names of colors. No name tells exact
~ what color is, and the subleties
that can't be made into words are
exactly what make the diff
ference in actuality. Women who
dress well, or the great pro-
fessional artists in dress, go by
nothing but the actual trial of color
and complexion together. 1t is the
same way about putting colors togeth-
err. The woman is lost who has little
rules about blue and pink going to-
gether, or green and violet not going
together; everything depends on
shades. You've got to put them to
gether and see, and then if you can't
see, if you have no eye for color, get
some one to see for you. A great deal
can be learned by noting what nature
does. She puts green and flame to-
gether in nasturtiums, but see what
delicate gray green!'-Cincinnati En-
ouirer.

feated, is unparalleled in history.

The Girl That Everybody Likes

You have undoubtedly met
disagreeable girls who, without
doing anything especially spite
full or mean, have impressed you
as a girl to avoid. But have you
ever met the girl that you, as
we'll as everybody else liked
You are unfortunate if YOU have
not met her.
She IS the girl who is not too
bright and good, to be able to
find joy and pleasure all over
the world.
She is the girl whoIapprcciates
the fact that she cannot always
have the first choice Of every
thing i'll the world.
She is the girl who is not ag-
gressive and does not find JOY il
melting aggressive people.
She is the girl who neve'
causes pain with a thoughtiess
tongue.
She IS the girl who, whenever
it is warm OF cool, clear OF
stormy, finds no fault with the
| weather.
She is the girl who, when yor
invite her to any place, compli
ments you by looking her best.
| She is the girl who makes this
| world pleasant place because
she is so pleasant herself.
And by the by, when you come
to think Of it, isn't she the girl
| who makes you feel she likes
you and therefore YOU like her.
