OUR CASTLE ON the Rhine,
A STORY FOR BOYS AND GIRLS.
Augusta Prescott.

We were tired out that summer, my
friend Frances and I; and when We got a
c.en-earned three months vacation we de-
tsrmined 10 spend it on that quietest of all
places, the Rhine!
Have you ever sailed up the Rhine, and
do YOU remember-ah, can you ever for
qe,-the overhanging trees that shoot out
from great boulders of rock along its
sides? Can you ever forget lis castles,
great. ruined stone things, half crumbled,
but with tall battlements towering over
head as high as you can see?
The Rhine is a nest of castles.
When we found ourselves sailing a few
weeks later up it, on what we would have
considered an old ferryboat, we begged
our ferryman, with such German as We
could command, to pause so that we could
look up and peer into the big stone turrets
that stood so high above us.
Night found us far up the Rhine with
darkness coming on, and only a peasants

splash and plunge. But by that time II
Is too late. The great derrick is hauling
in a line which draws the bottom of the
net together like a purse until the fish
are inclosed in q bag from which there
IS no escape. AS a rule, the haul weighs
many tons. and It has happened often
that the catch was so great that the net
tore from the weight. Therefore, the
swung in alongside and the fish are SHOW
the menhaden boat steams to the factory
with full speed, for the oily menhaden
spoil very quickly, and no one who has
not smelled a cargo of spoiled menhaden
really knows what possibilities there are
IN the way of doors. For this reason the
menhaden factories generally are situat-
ed as far from settlements as possible.
When the boat lands the fish are shov-
eled into the oil-trying plant, where
every drop OF oil is extracted. After
they seem to be absolutely dried out they
are put into great presses and more oil
comes from them.
Even after that there still Is some
thing marketable in them, and they are
resold for fertilizlng purposes. Passengers
on trains that go through farming coun-
try near the sea at night often notice
queer phosphorescence playing over the
fields IT Is caused by the decomposlng
fish which have been plowed into the
soil Besides phosphorescence, they add
70 rich flavor to the atmosphere, which
makes that part of the scenery untena-

FISHING FOR "BUNKERS."
WHEN AMATEURS CAN EARN SOME
THING WITH OIL.

BIueHsh Season AIsO-BIuefsh swim
Them GreediIy-TvO Kinds of Fish
with One Net.
Toms River, N. j.. July o." Bunkers"
have struck inshore again In paying num-
bers, and long lines of oily black smoke
over the bunker factories along the east
end of Long Island and in Narragansett
Bay show that many persons who were
idle last year have found work again.
The laws against bunker fishing in Buzz
yards Bay, in Rhode Island, and Raritan
Bay, in New Jersey, were severe blow
TO the industry. Then, in addition, the
fish took a notion to swim far out to sea
and the bunker boats consumed so much
coal and got such small fares Of fish
that many factories shut down years ago.
In sense It was proper punishment for
greed, for many OF the bunker men were
hogs of the worst kind and seined tons
and tons of valuable food fish.
While the industry was at It's hight
It was a common thing to see thousands
Of fine bluefsh, running from Ave to ten
pounds in weight in the holds Of the
bunker boats. The practice was the
more criminal in that food FISH are not
worth much for oil. The result of this
wickedness of the few was that all the
bunker men had to suffer. The writer
knows several bunker fishermen and
members of big menhaden oil firms In
timately, and he can say positively that
they were careful TO leave the food fish
alone. Indeed, often they opened their
nets and allowed schools of weakhsh
and buehsh to pass through, even though
they had to sacrifice the catch of mem
haden. But such decent folk were the eX-
ceptions and the ruin spread along shore
by the rest caused 50 strong a feeling
against the bunker industry that there
were even armed conflicts between men
haden boats and fishermen who were
after food fish
Bunkers have many names. The cor
RECT name for them Is menhaden Moss
bunker Is the most common fun title,
but no fisherman takes the trouble TO
call them anything except bunkers or
iust plain fish. Greenbacks and bony
dsh are local names that are used by
some New Jersey fishermen. They be-
long to the herring family, and resemble
the common herring somewhat. Their
bodies, however, are much deeper and
thew have large dark spots on their sides.

When therefore, my friends and pro-
posed that we hire the old castle for a
month, and offered in payment, a good
American rent, they gladly consented and
all that day they were busy carrying
household goods from the cottage to the
castle. To be sure at first they looked
surprised a the idea of renting the old hall
to two girls, but nice fee conquered their
convictions, and by night, for We could not
wait, they had us nicely installed in our
new home.
The part We had selected for a dwelling
lay in the north wing of the castle, for we
found on investigation that it was a much
larger and roomier old pie than we had
supposed. There was an immense from

castle extended back 200 feet, while three

the turrets. The stairs were in places
worn away, and here and there were
crumbling steps. But the great masonry
was substantial and, underneath, were
solid stone walls built from the ground to
the steeples, and we had no fear of the
structure.
The old peasants had not been in the
castle for years, they told us. In fact
they had been afraid to enter its gloomy
interior and when, after climbing two
long fights Of stairs and traversing num-
erous chambers with floors of stone and
wood, we stepped out into the right wing.
they could not repress their establishment
at the cheerfulness of the view before
them. We found ourselves in a great room
fully forty feet square, flooded with sun
shine from the windows in the turret
Large stone seats were under the windows
and there were remnants of heavy pieces
of furniture left in the room.
These rooms we determined to make our
home and by shutdown the good old peas
ants had carried rugs pieces of furni-
ture and such cooking utensils as we re-
CURED up to us. On searching the old
castle we found rough mating, and the
remains of what were once handsome
squares of floor covering. These we
spread along the great entrance chambers
and down the stairs until we had a very
neat approach TO our new habitation.
AT nightfall the old couple had a re-
luctance al leaving us, but on our assur-
ance that we were quite comfortable and
not in the least afraid, they babe us good
night and departed. After they had gone
the old man came back to tell us that the
good wife was still uneasy about us. If
we desired anything in the night and II
we were alarmed or frightened, we had
but to hoist a lantern from the window
which looked down to the cottage in the
valley below. and they would come to us.

EYE LANGUAGE.
The Reason There Is a constants
Meeting of the Eyes.

From the Popular Science Monthly.
No part of the human countenance en-
cages our attention so frequently as the
eyes When face to face in conversation
we do not look at the lIps-although, as
rule the attention Is very quickly
taken by any movement-but at the eyes
Of the person with whom we are speak
ing. So much Is this the case that the
habit of many deaf persons OF watching
the mouth always strikes us as peculiar.
In fact, one usually feels that there 10
sense of incompleteness in the asSocia-
ton Of mind with mind by means OF
conversation II there Is not a continual
Interchange of glances making a kind Of
running commentary on the words spoken.
The same may be said of ordinary greet
ings when two people shake hands; unless
there is at the same moment a meeting
Of friendly looks the ceremony loses much
of its meaning.
Now why Is there this continual meet
ing of eyes accompanying all kinds of
human Intercourse? Partly, no doubt, 1t
Is attributable to certain habits OF COM
paratiyely recent date. The eye, 1.-THE VIM
dow OF the SOUL" Is more truthful ex-
ponent Of the inward thoughts than the
tongue, and seeing that speech is very
frequently used not to tell the thoughts
but 20 conceal them, We look to the eye
for confirmation of the reverse of what
our ears are taking in.
