lnquisitive Penguins.

We often met companies of six or
eight or more penguins promenading
on the pack in the sunshine. When
they saw us they generally exhibited
curiosity, and approached to get near
er view. | do not know if these birds
have the instinct of the naturalist, and
take lively interest, doubtless purely
philosophic from their point of view,
in everything new which presents it
self, or If the object of their inyestiga-
lions is entirely practical, but they GER
tainly came near us with a distinct
purpose of making examination. But
if we had the misfortune to excite
much curiosity. they became aggres-
sive. One would first come close to us
and reconnoiter, and then, on his order,
the others would advance with 2 men
acing air, and the battle began-a bat
tie in which we sometimes had trouble
to demonstrate effectively our superior
strength. On one occasion we were
able to observe that the penguins are
musical amateurs. Unfortunately we

able to appreciate talent and classical
music" for we had no virtuoso among
Us, nor indeed any musician. although
we all, without exception, played nu-
merous melodies and even operate airs
on the ships barrel organ. But in any
case-and the thing is worth hoting-
one of the sailors delighted TO exercise
himself upon the trumpet, and the pen
gums came from great distances to
listen to him-no doubt to learn some
thing new.
Often, very often. these brave pen
grlins amused US. and when we were
tired of preserved foods. especially Of
Australian rabbit. they afforded US real
suceor, after we learned that the flesh
of the penguin Is excellent eating

was doubtful whether he would ever get

book left at the door telling about ST.
Jacobs Oil. so | procured a bottle from
our chemist. Mr.. Arthur Creswell. $40

Jacobs Oil, and YOU may guess my sur
prise when in a week my husband could
not only stand but could walk about, and
in three weeks he was back at work. and
everybody talking about his wonderful
recovery. Seeing what st. Jacobs Oil
could do gave me faith in your Vogeler's

why Big Fish Get Away.

Ii is perfectly plain that large fish
are more apt to escape than small ones.
Their weight and activity, combined
with the increased thickness and re-
sourcefulness of age and experience, OF
course, greatly increase their ability
to tear out the hook, and enhance the
danger that their antics viii expose q
fatal weakness in hook. leader, Iine or
rod. Another presumption. which must
be regretfully mentioned, arises from
the fact that in many cases II is the
encounter with a large fish which
causes such excitement, and such dis

thing. or fail TO do the right thing, at
