That cod eat young Holsters is fact
writer in an exchange quoted by the
Fishing Gazette He says; THE cod
fish are feeding on the young Holsters
to such an extent that it will not take
long to exterminate them. Through
the efforts of the United States fish
commission Goldfish seem to have in
creased greatly in numbers. The fish
ermen around Block island and Watch
Hill say that cod are growing more
plentiful every year, and they say fur
Their that when dressing Goldfish they
frequently find young Holsters whole
inside of the larger fish. Evidently
young Holsters are becoming a deli
cate morsel for some of their COM
panions of the sea. There is a prob
lem for the shellfsh commissioners to
solve in the artificial propagation of
the lobster. Old fishermen about
Watch Hill and vicinity tell me that
when they haul their lobster pots now
they get fifteen and twenty pounds
where they used to get 100" The fish
ermen have no one to blame but them
selves. When Holsters were plentiful
they would kill the egg-bearing lob
sters as nusances and bait destroyers.
If they had thrown them overheard the
result might have been different

An excellent cleaner and polisher for
furniture with very high finish is
recommended by an experienced dealer
in rare woods. To one tablespoonful
of linseed oil add an equal portion of
turpentine, together with a piece of
any pure soap the size of walnut.
Pour this into a vessel containing one
quart of boiling water and let the
whole boil for about 10 minutes, stir
ring it occasionally so that it may be
well mixed. This liquid can be used
either warm or cold, but experience
teaches that it is more effective when
warm; it can be heated several times
before it will need renewing. Apply
with a soft flannel cloth, well wrung
out, to a small portion of the surface
to be cleaned. After the dirt has been
well wiped off, take fresh flannel
to polish with, and a few minutes
vigorous rubbing will soon restore the
wood to its original brillancy. Crude
oil is the polisher used in most of the
furniture shops. But it is well to re-
member that in the stores there is
scarcely day when each piece of fur
niture Is not carefully wiped off with
soft cloth, keeping the surfaces per-
fectly clean, so that the aid OF the oil
is only called in to take off the cloudy
appearance which will at times dis
figure the most carefully tended furni-
ture.-New York Evening Post

HE'LL HAVE TO, THIS TIME"

peared until at dinner, when she was
her old mischievous self again. He
had left the next morning and she had
never seen him since, but she had heard
of him frequently. After graduating
from college he had gone abroad ana
but lately returned. Miss Emery had
married a college friend Of his. Where
did he keep that picture now?
Now, Kitty" said her uncle, run
away and don't worry about Mr.. Right.
He'll be your ideal. I'll promise you"
We'll, WELL" he said, as she left the
room. Il thought she'd see through
the joke. Guess I'll let 1t go now. My
experience is that If you want couple
to marry, make them think it impossi-
Bile and then nothing can prevent them.
But she'll go and fall in love with the
man | want her to, thinking Mr.. Right
really exists"
But Kitty did let it worry her, and
again and again she questioned her
uncle about Mr.. Wright las she be-
lieved his name to be-, but his answers
gave her little or no satisfaction. Fin
ally she determined she would forget
him, while Charlie was with them, any
way.
When she saw Charlie she said she
would never have taken that bearded
man for the smooth-faced boy she had
known four summers before. She her
self was the same little sprite, with her
sparkling eyes and mass Of dark brown
hair. When she inquired after his
"fair cousin he laughingly replied
that he had spent the last Sunday with
her and Tom. "Wha. chase you led
me that day, and | never told you, but
that night | received letter from
home telling me OF her marriage, and
| was so cross tore the picture up"
Thus they talked OF the past and the
many pleasant days they had spent to-
gether. That night in her own room
Kitty said softly as she put out the
light, Il wish Charlie was Mr. Wright"
They had been in the boat all the
afternoon, and were just returning
home.
mo, Charlie, I cannot be your wife,
for uncle would never consent
"And why uidn't he tell me SO? He
might know what the consequences
would be If spent much time in your
company"
'Oh, Charlie, didn't you know there
Is some Mr.. Wright uncle wants me to
| marry? I thought likely YOU knew,
and never said anything about it. I'm
Gle never changes his mind, either"
well, he'll have to, this time, he
said, as he helped her out of the boat,
for il he doesn't, I'll carry you off oy

"Oh, you needn't do that, young
man. said a voice close beside him.
81 guess you're Mr. Right, and have
my consent before you've asked 1t.
But, uncle, Charles name isn't

soldiers, says the Boston Transcript.

the authorities at San Francisco have
been directed by the war department to
open similar course Of instruction for
the volunteers there. Miss Stack has
classes numbering in all about fifty.
and they are taught in groups of about
one-third that number. The course
consists of twenty-four lessons and
four reviews. The pupils are sturdy
men, fresh from a great variety of oc-
cupauons-cab drivers, BARRIERS, stage
carpenters, brick masons, transfers,
etc, and one man is a physician of five

this will be the most easily obtained of
the cereal foods. As for bareback. Miss
Stack shows her pupils ten different
methods of preparing it. The way the
men take hold of the work is surpris-
ing. Most of them appear amazed at
the possibilities in the line of scientific
cooking, and where they have homes
they usually announce that they will
effect revolution in cooking there
upon their return. There is an eco
nomic side to this work, too. The hos
pitfalls are allotted 40 cents day for
each patient with which to buy milk
and other food. The class is taught
some OF the principles of food-buying;
what things will be of most service
that can be procured within the limits
of that sum. All this instruction goes
on side by side with the regular army
training for the hospital corps, such as
the litter and the ambulance drills,
Now men are enlisted direct for the
hospital corps, while in the recent war
all volunteers enlisted on the same
basis and certain of them were picked
out for this work There is no differ

WOMAN REFUSES
To Live with Her Husband Because She
Says He Is Homely.


Says He Is Homely.
New York World. Mrs Jennie Gold
farb has given a novel excuse for re-
fusing to live with her husband Sam
uel. She says that he is too homely
for any woman to live with. Goddard
who is a philosopher, admits that he
is not an Apollo, but he also insists
that his wife has never been known
as professional beauty. The Gold
farbs have had good deal of trouble
since they were married in 1890. 1t
took Mrs, Goldfarb but short time to
discover that her husband did not
come up to her standard of manly
beauty, and she began to make things
uncomfortable for him Occasionally
she went back to her mother At an
other time Samuel in despair sent her
to Europe, hoping that when she re-
turned he would find favor in her eyes.
But matters were still worse when she
came back, and according to num-
Der of atfidavits, in the possession Of
former Judge II. w. Leonard, Gold
farb's counsel, she positively refused
to live with him at all. Goldfarb in
the meantime had spent small for
tune on complexion beautifiers, hair
restorers and other toilet luxuries. He
became Berry Wall in his dress. But
his wife remained obdurate, and final
ly, a short time ago, charged him be-
fore Magistrate Hogan with desertion.
Goddard was sent-railroaded, he says
to the island for six months. He
gave a bond and was released. He at
once sued for a separation, and for
such other relief as may seem just"
