FISHING NOTES.
An Abundance of Small Mackerel Civ
Promise of a Good Season Next Year.

The schooner Emma has arrived recent
~ from the Cape Cod region with very
few mackerel, two or three barrels. The
Portland vessels still out are the
Henrietta Frances. Lola b.. Fernald,
Lizzie Maud and Ellen Lincoln. These
vessels have few fish but not many.
Tho season has been practically failure,
with the lightest catch known for many
years.
The Emma and all the vessels that have
come in lately have reported the coast as
swarming with small yearling mackerel.
Mr.. Fernald thinks that next year will
be an extra good season unless
something destroys the fish before they
get back. In old times an abundance Of
small fish in the fall meant a big catch
next year.
The fishermen who came in yesterday
with fish found fair prices. The vessels
brought as follows: Mary Hogan 2, O0(
pounds; Ella Doughty, 5000; Fairy
Queen. 5000; Albert W. Black, 5000; Amy
Wixon, 5000.

highest authorities in the
world on the action Of
drugs. In his last work,
speaking of the treatment
of scrofula, he says:
at is hardly necessary to state that cod-liver
oil is the best remedy of all. The oil should
be. given in emulsion, SO prepared as to be
palatable."
He also says that the
hypophosphites should be
combined with the oil.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE
On Monetary Question Assured Between Eng
land. France and Germany.

London, Feb. 26.--1n the House of
Commons, today, Robert L. Everett,
Liberal member from Suffolk, introduced
the following motion: 1.-The House re-
CARDS with increasing apprehension the
constant fuctuation and growing diver
gence of the values of gold and silver, and
heartily concurs in the recent expressions
of opinions of the governments OF Franco
and Germany in regard to the serious
evils arising therefrom.
Sir William Harcourt said he had never
denied the existence of evils in conse-
auence of the growing divergence of the
values of gold and silver. When other
countries desired monetary conference,
the government had not refused to join.
The last conference at Brussels had shown
that a majority of European countries
had declared in favor of mono-metallic
currency. He did not think Germany had
changed her opinion. When the proposal
from Germany or any other country
reached the government, it would be time
enough to consider the question Of Eng
lands joining in another conference.
Leaving the international considers
lions for the national aspect of the ques-
ton, Sir William contended that there
ought TO De u continuity Ol inc CulicH'y
policy which the nation had attained.
Though hoping little from an interna-
tional monetary conference, inasmuch as
the motion was brought forward on com
mon grounds declaring that evils existed
that the government admitted, and as he
had only been invited to cooperate with
the powers on the subject, he had decided
not to oppose the resolution. (Cheers.)
The Parliamentary bi-metallist com
mittee, Immediately after Sir William
Harcourt announced his acceptance of MIR.
Everett s motion, telegraphod the Berlin
Bi-metallist League asking it to urge up
on Prince Hohenlohe, the German
chancellor, the expodiency of opening
negotiations for monetary conference at
Berlin.
The league responded with telegram
congratulating the English bi-metalliSts
upon the success of Mr. Everett's motion.
The opinion prevailed in the lobby that
an international conference upon the sub
iect is assured.
Debate on Mr. Everett's motion was
continued until midnight, when the mo-
ton was agreed to without division.

Small Beginnings

Make great endings sometimes. Ailments
that we are apt to consider trivial often grow,
through neglect, into atrocious maiadies,
dangerous in themselves and productive of
others. 1t is the disregard of the earlier in
dications of iii health which leads to the
establishment of all sorts of maladies on q
chronic basis. Moreover, there are certain
disorders incident to the season, such as
malaria and rheumatism, against which it is
always desirable to iortify the system after
exposure to the conditions which produce
them Cold, damp and miasma are surely
counteracted by Hostettcr's Stomach Bitters.
After you have incurred risk from these in
huences, wineglassfui or two of Hostetter's
Stomach Filters directly afterward should be
swallowed. For malaria, dyspepsia, liver
complaint, kidney and bladder trouble, ner-
vousness and debility ii is the mo st deservedly
popular of remedies and preventives. A wine
glassful before meals promotes appetite.
