Why Fishes Ar. Slippery.

Fish Of almost every sort are, when
fresh caught, slippery and hard to hold.
This slipperiness is due to sort of
mucus exuded through the scale, and
is of the greatest Importance to all
Shiny creatures.
One Of the important functions of the
fish's Shiny coating is to protect it from
the attacks OF fungus, form Of plant
life found in all waters, salt and fresh,
foul and pure. If the fish is so injured
that some spot becomes uncovered by
the slime, a barely visible fungus will
be likely to lodge there, and when it is
once lodged the process Of reproduction
is very rapid. 1t soon extends over the
gills and kills the fish.
The primary purpose of the slime of
the fish Is to reduce its friction when in
motion through the water and increase
its speed. 1t also serves as cushion to
the scales, which 1t thus protects from
many injuries.

NAMES OF IRANsVAAL TOWNS.
Explanation of the Singular Nomencla
ture of Places In Boerland.

Explanation OF the Singular NOmenc1as
ture of Places In Boerland.
Many of the towns of south Africa
which figure prominently in the dis
patches are named after persons who
have had leading parts in the political
and social life Of the country. Durham,
for instance, bears the name of Sir Ben
jamin Durham, who was governor of
Cape Colony in 1884. Grahamstown
and Harrismith are named respectively
after Colonels Graham and Sir Harry
Smith, while Kimberley bears the name
Of the earl of Kimberley, who was
colonel secretary from 1870 to 1874.
CaledOn, Beaufort, Somerset and Cra-
dock are named after former governors
the earl Of Caledon, Lord Charles
Somerset and Sir John Cradock UOrd
Howden). The towns of Ladysmith,
Port Elizabeth and Lady Gray are call
ed after the wives Of Cape governors.
Pretoria Is named in honor of the first
president Of the South African Repub-
lic-Marthinus Vessel Pretorius. The
origin of KrugersdOrp is evident. while
johannesburg also is named from Dom
Paul, one Of whose names Is Johannes.
The practice Of naming towns In honor
of distinguished men is followed by
beers even in time Of war, as witness
the remaining of Dundee MeyersdOrp.
