GREED PROVES HIS RUIN.
Unsuitable Appetite of the Goldfish Makes
Him an Easy Prey.

A Goldfish is never more happy than
when he is hung to line. He will
travel 100 marine leagues if he hears
that some man in a little fishing dory
has a hook out. He never learns that
the dainty, juicy morsel swinging to
and fro 80 or 40 fathoms down in the
sea conceals a steel barb. His ancestors
have successfully gone on making the
same unpardonable mistake ever since
the waters of the great deep were gath
cred together. Other creatures, in the
light of a dreadful experience, have
picked up an instinct that there is dan
ger in a hook, but the cod does not and
is pulled in. And his family of young
sters-he leaves behind 1000 Of them
sooner or later will follow him into a
cask.
So the chap in the dory drifting quiet
ly over the bank watches his two lines
and awaits the inevitable Jerk which
tells of the presence of the voracious
morrhua He knows that if the SIGNAL
nibble does not come soon that cod has
other fish to fry, because it is always
eating or going to eat. II is the ma
1ine personification of famine and
starves with its stomach full of food.
Old fishers say that cod will gulp
down a baited hook with his mouth
filled with a salmon he has just caught.
There have been several cases where
this gourmand of the seas has man
aged to get away with hook, sinker
and several fathoms of heavy line, to
be caught a few minutes later by a new
fishing tackle.
Notwithstanding the fearful mortality
among this fish, so anxious to get
caught that only the most remarkable
error on it's part can save it's life, it de-
fes determination. 1t spawns and
swarms and thickens the sea with it.
self. It has been said that if the Gods
many enemies ceased working on him,
and if he did not die himself from over
eating, he and the different members
of his family would soon fill the ocean
from bottom to surface and from shore
to shore. In fact, there would be no
more sea.
Being juicy, delectable morsel is
not the only good thing that can be said
Of this fish of the genus gadus. He has
an Unsuitable appetite for scientific re
search, and an exploration within his al
most unfathomable stomach has re-
vealed the flora and fauna of life exist
ing far down in the soundless deep.
While he is discussing a breakfast of
mussels with seaweed on the side he is
laboring in the cause of science, and
when David Starr Jordan hooks him
out of his great watery dining-room he
will be the means of adding much to
the roster of the vegetable and animal

JAMAIcA,s MoNeoosg TRIAL.
Imported to Free the Island from Rats

Imported to Free the Island from Rats
The Pest Is Exterminated by Ticks.
The introduction of the mongoose
into Jamaica marks one of the stand
ard instances of unexpected results fol-
lowing upon an attempt to artiticialize
the process of natural selection, and
takes rank as warning with the
plague of rabbits and thistles in Aus
tralia. The mongoose was introduced
from India, in 1872, in order to abate
the pest of rats which infested the
sugar canes, and after performing this
salutary duty it increased and multi
piled to such an extent that not only
the rats ana mice but most of the liv-
ing species of the island were threat
ened with extinction. Poultry suffered
first, but the depredations extended to
young pigs, kids, lambs, newly dropped
calves, puppies and kittens. Game of
all kinds was attacked, both living and
in the egg. The marauder ate even
fish, and maze sucn a speciality of
snakes, ground lizards, frogs, turtles
and land crabs, that many kinds of
these entirely disappeared. Finally the
mongoose developed a ravenous desire
for bananas, pineapples, young corn,
avocado pears, cocoas,. yams and the
sugar canes which it had been called
in to protect, winding up its tastes
with an appetite for salt meat.
The result was a wholesale disap-
pearance of species. A few birds, like
the ground dove, had the sense to shift
their breeding places to the tops of the
prickly cactI, where they were safe;
but other animals, and the reptiles in
particular. suffered so severely that
many kinds were believed for years
to be extinct. As consequence there
arose yet another plague. Insects Ike
the ticks and 't'iiggers" Tor chigors).
which used to be kept down by the
snakes, increased so overpoweringly
that men and cattle were grievously
infested. One could not walk without
being covered with them.
The victory over the island remained
with the tick and mongoose, until, with
in the past year or two. a fresh stage
set in. The monooose suddenly began
to be less plentiful, and it was found
that he had fallen victim to the tick.
The results of the diminution are
shown in the gradual reappearance of
other beasts, birds and reptiles. Among
the snakes there is a very marked in
crease, and even the ground lizard,
supposed to be quite extinct, has be
come common again. The balance Of
life has begun to reassert itself and
naturalists will watch with curiosity
for complete reinstatement of the
previous fauna. The renewed depreda-
tons of rats are hailed IS an advent of
salvation, and, odd as it may sound,
the increase in numbers of the crocO-
die is taken as a happy omen. The
Jamaicans are not likely to make fur
ther experiments in this interesting do
main of natural history. but will ad-
here in future to such present evils as
they have. For them, at any rate, it
has been no 'imaginary mongoose."-

ANEWDISCOVtRY by The SHAKERS

For moro than hundred years the
Mount Lebanon Shakers have studied the
cultivation Of medicinal plants and sought
to extract from them their healing es.
sences. Their labor has not been spent
in vain. They have made discovery that
will prove blessing to mankind. 1t con-
sists OF II cordial that causes immediate re-
lief in cases of indigestion. The import
auce Of this discovery will be apparent
when We realize that nearly nine-tenths
Of our suffering are caused by dyspepsia
or indigestion. Nearly every person you
meet has this digestive trouble in some
of its varied forlns-sick headache, distress
after eating, pain and fullness in the
chest after eating palpitation OF the heart,
etc. are but symptoms of indigestion. 10
ruieve these sufferlngs has been tho study
Of the Shakers, and they have succeeded.
The reason the Shaker Digestive Cordial
has such an immediate and salutnry effect
is that it causes tho food eaten 10 be Gi.
gested, fCrit is undigested food that causes
the distress. The Cordial causes tho food
to be digcsted before there Is time for it
to fermcnt and sour on the stomach.
When the food is SO digested it gives
strength and vigor to tho feeble body,
makes one feel bright and cheerful, and
makes one gain in flesh.
The Digestive Cordial Is SO prompt in
its action that the very first dose will have
perCeptibly favorable result. 1t gives
immediate relief.
