Horses and mules are, or at one time
were, made TO play a curious part in
the fishing operations Of South Amer
lean Indians who eat the gymnotus o.
electric eel. Humboldt was told that II
was their custom TO force horses TO en-
ter the ponds in which these eels lived
and when the fish had exhausted on the
animals their ability for the time being
to inf1ict a shock the fishermen caught
them with nets and harpoons, secure
from risk themselves. The more excited
and angry the electric eel, the more
violent is the shock it infiicts.
Humboldt saw this curious fishing on
one occasion: "a troop Of horses and
mules was driven into the water and
prevented from coming out by the In.
dians, who crowded round the pool.
The cells, stunned and confused by the
noise Of the horses, defended them
selves by the repeated discharge OF
their batteries. For a long time they
seemed likely to gain the victory over
the animals, which were TO be seen In
every direction, stunned by the fire.
quency and force of the electric shocks,
to disappear under the water. Some OF
the horses rose again and in spite OF
the vigilance Of the Indians gained the
shore, exhausted with fatigue, and their
limbs being benumbed by the electric
connections they stretched themselves
at full length upon the ground. In less
than five minutes two horses were al
ready drowned"

repeatedly come to him with the bows
Of her spectacles so badly twisted
that he asked her how under the sun
she ever managed to get them in such
a state. He says that he had visions
OF some childish hands having part
In the work, some little one that liked
to play with mammals glasses.
But the woman said that she had
been wearing glasses so much of re-
cent years that finally she had taken to
wearing them TO bed as the only way
Of getting to sleep. She said that 1t
was only within the past few weeks
that she had had any trouble from the
custom. as she ordinarily managed
to keep the front part Of her face or
the pillow; but lately she must have
had bad sleep. with more or less night

Building a Business.

II there is anything which adds to the
up building OF town more than any
thing else it is business which does not
take a spurt and then stop. but one
which begins at the bottom and Rradu-
ally grove and enlarges until it becomes
one Of which the city may feel proud.
The citizens and other business hous
ss too, have great respect for the firm
which opens it's doors on small scale,
because there is lack OF apitsl to make
much Of a display, and then puts every
dollar back into the business. until the
firm name and the place OF business are
known to every one in the city.
Perhaps there is no business in any
line which has more competition than
the bicycle business, and it is safe to say
that there is no other line which finds
that it has to compete with such un-
skilled labor and meet prices OF inferior
workmen as does this same business.
And yet, frequently a man who does
know his business and who can care for
the wants OF the people along the line OF
him out and it is to him that they take
their work and from him that they got
their wheels, for they know that his
judgment on the subject OF bicycles can
be trusted and that his opinions are hon.
est ones and are based on a knowledge
Of the business.
man Of the latter class, who knows
nearly all there is to know about wheels,
is W. E. TenEyck OF this city. A little
moro than a year ago he opened bi
cycle repair shop here and since then to
have person come into his store once
has been to have them for regular Gus.
toner. Strict attention to business and
a desire to be accommodating and pleas
ing has won him the reputation that he
holds for being first among the repair
men of the city along his line.
He carries in stock few wheels OF the
best and latest improved makes, and will
order anything to suit customer il he
does not happen to have it in stock at
the time.
Persistent work, liberal vertisipg and
knowledge of how to do the work has
m ade his establishment one OF the best
known in the city. For anything in the
line of wheels or repairing it will pay
you to gee MIR. TenEyck before taking
sour work elsewhere.
