lie down, puts it, in fact, right into
the fish's mouth. And the old chap
stays there and takes the killies as
they are handed down.
At another tank further along you
get glimpse of the brilliant blue of
the angel fish, fairly shining through
the wire grating over its tank. And
this wonderful and beautiful fish is
tiuttering around now, near the top
of the water. waiting to be fed, and
is going to take the food from the
9ngers. 1t comes always up into the
same corner, where it is daily fed,
and is just as tame as can be; but
for all its beauty and its tameness
the angel fish is one of those whose
teeth must be looked out for.
Next you come to the tank of the
squirrel fishes, most graceful as to
shape, bright red in color and with
black eyes. And these beautiful lit
tie fishes take food from the hand
most freely.
And next to the squirrel fishes is
the odd, queershaped and curiously-
marked and good-humored and
friendly shiny boxfsh, which not
only takes from the fingers the food
held down to it, but seems glad to
take it in that way: and saanns, in
deed, to find pleasure in its daily
meeting with the man that brings it..
The fishes enumerated are only a
few of many in the aquarium that
will take food as here described: but
the casual observer who should see
these would be likely to go away
with new IDEAS as to the intelligence

work, like a bird cage in appearance,
is enveloped in Portland cement,
which prevents the steel from rust

THESE ARE TAME FISHES.
Many Mt the Aquarium in New York
City That VIII Take Food
from the Hand.

Probably no angler would think of
the weakfish, for instance, as one
that could be induced to take food
from the hand; but the weaktish at
the New York aquarium will eat in
this manner, says the Sun.
That lightning-quick fish, the mack
erel, and others of it's quick-moving
family, can likewise be brought to
take food from the hand, though
they do not come up and pause and
take the food deliberately from the
fingers. They seize it out of the fin
gers as they flash past; doing this.
however, of deliberate purpose, so
that it may be said of them, too, that
they will take food from the hand
In fact, there is hardly a fish which
comes to the aquarium that will not
take food in this way after being
there six months or more. The
fishes that will take food thus in
clude not only the common. famil-
lar kinds, but the strangely-shaped
and the bright-colored varieties from
the tropics.
They are, indeed, so ready to do
this that the man who feeds them
has to look sharp and see that they
don't bite his fingers. There are
here plenty of fishes, and some of
them not so very big, either, with
teeth sharp enough and jaws power
full enough to enable them to bite to
the bone.
At the same time there are plenty
of the fishes here that don't nip and
catch in that way, but eat with more
.leliberation, and there are plenty
of them that are up at the top of
the water waiting for the man that
feeds them when he comes along, or
that come to the top to meet him the
instant he raises the screen over
their tank.
Here's the orange filefish, from To-
raj waters, an odd, curious-looking
fish, which comes up to the top and
feeds from the hand with absolute
confidence. Its small, curious mouth
when open presents a round Oriticc
not much more than big enough to
take in a lead pencil. 1T takes it's
food by suction.
The orange filefish comes up for
the shrimp held out for it and mum
bles around it without any hurry at
all until it gets it just right and then
sets its suction going and takes ii
in. And it takes in this way shrimp
after shrimp.
A little further along there comes
TO the surface for his daily treat of
killies a big portly trigger fish, from
Bermuda. a veteran-this old chap
has been here since 1897. And it
comes up now at feeding time regular
ly and waits wit it's nose right at
the top of the '. ter, and rolls its
eye at you as it waits.

Soft Food for the Hens.

Do not forget to give the hens a
feed of soft food at least once
a day. From our observation
we judge this admonition should
be often repeated. In spite of
the fact that this practice is known
to save the lives of goodly percentage
of the flock every year where it is
practiced, it is so much easier to feed
corn than to go to the trouble of mix
ing up this feed every night that, on
thousands of farms, the hens soon get
to expecting just corn three times a
day. Yet the owners should remem-
ber that it means some dead fowls in
the spring when digestive systems of
the fowls will have been exhausted by
the constant tax of grinding grain

The continually increasing demand
for india-rubber, and the great inter
est manifested in all efforts to prevent
waste of the trees from which rub
Der is derived, have led our consuls in
countries where these trees grow to
collect many valuable facts concern

La Guaira, recently transmitted to
Washington some highly interesting
statements about the rubber, or
caoutchOuc trees of the upper Orino-
co by DR.. Lucien Morisse. who has
made extensive personal investiga-
tions in that region. DR.. Morisse
makes the somewhat surprising state
ment that the prohibition of the Ven
ezuelan government against the fell

Pe-ru-na is known from the Allan
tic to the Pacific. Letters of con-
graduation and commendation testi-
flying to the merits of Pe-ru-na as a
catarrh remedy are pouring in from
every State in the Union. DR.. Hart
man is receiving hundreds of such
letters daily. All classes write these
letters, from the highest to the lowest.
The outdoor laborer, the indoor
artisan, the clerk, the editor, the
statesman, the preacher-all agree
that Pe-ru-na is the catarrh remedy
of the age. The stage and rostrum,
recognizing catarrh as their great
est enemy, are especially enthusias-
tic in their praise and testimony.
Any man who wishes perfect
health must be entirely free from
catarrh. Catarrh is well-nigh uni
versal; almost omnipresent. Peru
ma is the only absolute safeguard
known. A cold is the beginning of
catarrh. To prevent colds, to cure
colds, is to cheat catarrh out of its
victims. Pe-ru-na not only cures ca
tarrh, but prevents. Every house
hold should be supplied with this
great remedy for coughs, colds and
so forth.

admirer of Pe-ru-na. He keeps it con-

FACTS ABOUT GAPES.
Three Excellent Ways of Preventing
Danger from Infection and
Some Reliable Cures.

The cape worm that natures in the
windpipe of the chick, causing the
disease, is developed from parasite,
and like other germ diseases is easier
prevented than cured; aid can be
prevented if the chick is not permit
ted to come in contact with the para
site. Now there are three ways to
prevent this danger of infection.
First is to hatch your chickens very
early, so they will be feathered before
the ground gets warm enough to in
cubate the cape worm microbe. The
second way is, keep your chicks where
it is perfectly dry all the time, as it
takes moisture as we'll as warmth to
develop the parasite. AS you cannot
raise chicks without warmth, says the
writer in National Stockman, you
must prevent moisture, or you surely
will have gapes if your yards are in
tested. The third, and better way, is
to raise your chicks each year in a
new place. suggest rotation as fol-
lows: Begin on the east side of your
orchard, next year move your coops
and brooders to the west side, the
third year move to the south, and the
fourth year to the north side. BY that
time the east side will be purified, so
there will not be much danger, and
you can continue this rotation with
perfect safety. To cure gapes in the
first stages of the disease, just as soon
as you can hear the first sniffie, slack
lump of lime sufficient to make a
pint when powdered, mix with it
teaspoonful of carbolic acid, put the
mixture in a 25-pound flour sack and
shake, drop chick in sack immediate
ly, and let remain just as long as pos
sible without suffocating, which it
will do in a short time if you do not
give fresh air. Repeat once or twice
until the chick sneeZes up the cape
worms. The chick inhaling the car
bolated lime dust will loosen the
worms so it can sneeZe them out if
you use the remedy while the chick
is strong enough to Stand the treat
ment But if you neglect the chick un-
til it becomes weak, and the windpipe
is filled with the worms, you will have
to remove them; and the best way to
do it is to take feather and strip it
except about one inch of the tip;
make five per cent. solution of car
bolic acid, dip tip of feather in the
solution and swab the windpipe of the
chick; you will likely kill some of
them, but as they would die or be
stunted so they would be worthless
if you do not treat them, it will, per-
haps, pay you if your time is not too
valuable.

MAKES THE HAIR FLUFFY.
Scalp Massage Proves Successful and
Popular with the Society Women Ol
New York.

Popular with the Society Women OF
New York.
The new method of making the
hair fluffy, and, what is yet more i'm
portant, ageable-namely, by
massage-is gaining converts daily at
New York. The straightest and stiff
est locks may, by this method, be-
come graceful.
All that is needed is willing and
active finger tips, which, once day
at least, and, if possible, oftener, will
lightly knead the scalp at the tenn
pies and forehead until the hair is
in that state of fluff admired by all
but possessed naturally, alas, by few.
There is really no art nor mystery
about the process. Moreover, any
one can do it for herself.
The result is just the same as that
once supposed to be attainable only
from shampooing, but it is much
more satisfactory For days after a
shampooing the hair is unmanage-
able; massage makes it but the more
manageable. Shampooing, too, must
not be INDUCED in often. A daily
massage of the scalp edges, where
the hair is liable to become thin, is
beneficial in the highest degree to
the health of the hair and of the
skin.
When you see a woman nowadays
whose otherwise straight hair fluffs
not artifcially but becomingly about
her face in n way to recall the
French saying that "The ugliest wo-
man may be made beautiful if she
but know how to comb her hair" you
may know that such a woman is in
dulging in daily scalp massage.

Dear Sirs-I have had occasion to
use your Pe-ru-na medicine in my
family for colds, and it proved to be-
an excellent remedy. / have not had
occasion to use it for other ailments.
Yours very truly, w. NJ Lord.
1t will be noticed that the Coy
ernor says he has not had occasion
to use Pe-ru-na for other ailments.
The reason for this is, most other
ailments begin with cold. Using
Pe-ru-na to promptly cure colds, he
protects his family against other
ailments. This is exactly what every
other family in the United States
should do. Keep Pe-ru-na in the
house. Use it for coughs, colds, Ia
grippe, and other climatic affections
of winter, and there will be no other
ailments in the house. Such families
should provide themselves with a

SHORTENING TIME SCHEDULE
Northwestern Puts on New Denver
Train June s, which is TO
he a Hummer.

CHICAGO, May So.-(Special telegram }
All fast-tme schedules between Chicago
and Omaha and Denver will go by the
board June S, when the Northwestern will
put new fast train in service. The new
train will be known as the Colorado Spe-
cial" westbound and the Chicago Special"
eastbound, and will lower the time OF the
present fastest Northwestern train from Chi
cago to Denver by two and one-half hours,
and the present fastest time from Chicago
to Omaha fifty-five minutes. The average
speed of the new train westbound and ex-
elusive Of stops between here and Omaha
will be forty-two miles per hour, and east
bound forty-three miles, while the average
speed each way between here and Denver,
including stops. will be a trihe over forty
miles an hour Between Chicago and both
western cities the two specials will con-
stitute the fastest service in existence.
Eastbound from Omaha the time will be
one hour and twenty minutes faster than
the Northwestern's fast mail train.
In December last year the Northwestern
attempted to lower the time between Chi
cago and Omaha in connection with the
Overland Limited" but the move met
with opposition from the other lines and
a speed agreement was then entered into,
two cities at thirteen hours and twenty
minutes. Recently one of the Omaha lines
abrogated this agreement, leaving the
Northwestern free to carry out speed plans
that had long been contemplated.
