proved when possible. for selfish reasons
If for no other. The pike, found In great
numbers, though less than In former
wears. is a valuable food fish and many
people derive pleasure in catching them.
The black bass, still numerous IN the
lake, is one of the finest game fishes in
American waters.
Many fishermen of experience differ as
to the relative game qualities of the trout
and the bass, but no one denies that the
bass is a superb fish, royal fighter, and
holds at least second place with the
trout. A hard and willy fighter, the bass
Is also a palatable fish when cooked and
altogether one of the finest fishes we
have. In many waters where these fish
once abounded they have been practically
exterminated. They are not easily prop
agated artifcially, and if it is desired to
preserve the bass fishing in Lake Cham
plain great care must be taken that the
supply is not unduly depleted nor the
| fish deprived of such protection as they
require.
j. S. Van Cleef writes to Forest and
Stream a letter regarding the great back
bay of the lake, which every one inter-
ested in that water should read.
The lesson of this is that SEEMING must
be stopped and the laws must be en-
forced if the supply of bass is to be main
tanned in the lake. Lake Champlain is
of such size and is so well adapted to the
habits of the bass that with proper care
| they may continue indefinitely to afford
good sport. If indiscriminate slaughter
is permitted. through improper laws or
lax enforcement of good laws, the sup
| ply will be exhausted, or at any rate so
depleted that the lake will no longer af-
ford an attraction to the angler.

SCHOOL DECORATION.
Remarks MS to Selection of Pictures
For CIassrooms.


DR.. ]. p. Haney recently addressed
the New York Teachers Art club on
the subject of school decoration. He
said in part:
With the birch supplanted and with
pictures made subject for study in
the schoolroom, surely no inquiry can
be more proper than that as to the man
ner In which pictures and other forms
may be used in a scheme of classroom
adornment. These questions rise at
once to the lips of the teacher who
seeks for aid in this matter: what pic
lures shall l use? How shall l mount
them2 Where shall hang themW To
these questions we shall address our
selves.
1t were wise, however, for US to con-
slider for a moment the purpose of the
picture hung upon the wall. Primarily
it is there as a decoration-the more
decorative, therefore, the better. Be
fore one can decide what pictures may
be used one must query as to the space
to be filled, for picture appropriately
filling q given space is more decorative
as a whole than one badly placed and
hung.
Their third query, therefore, is to be
considered first-to wit, What places
offer themselves as appropriate sites
for pictures or castsY This may be an
swered after a careful scrutiny Of the
room has shown the several panels of
wall space made by closet edges, chin
ney breasts. etc. Each of these can
best be decorated by picture of such
size and shape that when in place the
wall space about the picture will serve
to inclose it with equal border as an
extension of the picture frame.
1t will thus be seen that the available
space for decoration determines the
size and shape of the pictures to be
used AS to the subjects and forms tC
be chosen. the catalogue is long. The
choice should fall Oh those which arc
appropriate to the age of the pupils in
the class, on pictures which are simple
and bold in outline and mass, so that
they will "carry" we'll

Wonderful Stones.

The brain of the tortoise was suppos-
ed to contain a wonderful stone which
was efficacious in extinguishing fire
and when placed under the tongue
would produce prophetic inspiration.
Another stone possessing the latter
property was to be found in the eye of
the hyena. The head of the cat, how
ever, was thought to contain what
would undoubtedly have been the most
wonderful and most desirable treasure
of all could it have only had a real in
stead of an imaginary existence, for
that man who was so fortunate as to
possess this precious stone would have
all his wishes granted. - Chambers

A few weeks ago an item of news from
Samoa gained wide circulation. 1t was
to the effect that since those Islands had
come under the control of the United
States, Germany and Great Britain, and
the natives had taken to wearing more
clothes, consumption and other diseases
of the lungs had become alarmingly pre-
valent. This idea is perfectly consistent
with the common notion that lung af-
fections are due to a susceptibility to
sudden changes of temperature of the
body. But now comes DR.. Don d.
Grout of Waterbury, VT, and In a
paper OF "The Relation of Animal Dis
eases to Public Health" read before the
State School for Health Officers at Bur
lington, asserts that health officers have
shown that pulmonary consumption is
unknown where cows do not exist.
This statement at least bears the stamp
of novelty. Is it possible that the
Europeans have introduced cows into
Samoa, and that the gentle bovine and
not clothes is causing the spread af dis
ease in the islands?

shores every summer in greater numbers.
The scenery Is magnificent and with the
building of the new railroad through the

been much improved, making the resorts
along the lake more accessible. The
fishing Is also an attraction, and draws
to those localities many who would not
come but for that. Good fishing is val

The great convention of the Societies

FROM A FIRE OF APPLE WOOD. {

Through wind swept sheets Of driven rain NJ,
The ancient orchard shows forlorn, ~
Like brave old soldiery half slain, sAf14h
With gaps to tell the losses borne,
And fragments Of the fallen trees
Burn on the hearth before me brgnt; 10
The fire their captive spirit frees;
Musing, l watch it take its fight.
How swift the flames Of gold and blue
Up from the glowing logs aspirei
There yellow bird and bluebrd flew
And oriole, each with wings of fire.
Now in the hearth light, on the trees,
Stirs something they and have heard.

money was pouring down that way to
cover supposed orange groves, 1t was

NAUNA L0A NET GALES

The steamer Mauna Loa arrived from
Kona and Maui ports this morning af-
ter one OF the toughest through trips
ever experienced. From the time she
reached Hawaii until she entered the
channel at this port she was buffeted
by the waves and wind. Several times
work had to be stopped on account OF
the roughness of the sea at her ports OF
call but with all this delay the big boat
got through in time to arrive as usual
on schedule. At Kailua where she
was to have taken cattle for this city
the animals were held on account OF
the terrible storm raging at the time
she was there and will be brought to
town on another boat.
At Waipio Gulch the steamer Noeau
was weather bound when the Mauna
Loa passed and FROM the nature of the
weather encountered in crossing the
channels II is possible that the boat
will have to remain there some time.
Crossing both the Hawaii and Molokai
channels strong gales were met and
very high and confused seas. The
Mauna Loa left Lahaina last evening
at twenty minutes before midnight and
arrived here at twenty minutes after 6
this morning having made the run In
six hours and forty minutes. She
brought large freight and many pas
sengers.
