CATCHING Cod.

Once begun codfishing on the Banks
Is incessant, and when the fishing is
good the men rarely ever sleep. Awak-
enel at 2 a. m. to FIJI their bait kids
or tubs, they start at daybreak to lift
these travis and remove the overnight
catch, rebaiting the hooks again. There
are about 5000 hooks to handle. and
this often occupies until eventide, when
the boats row back. After unloading
the deck is piled high with the glitter
Ing mass Of fish. To eviscerate this and
stow 1t in the hold keeps them until
midnight, when they snatch an hour or
two of sleep.
Some can go without sleep for
week. Others will rub wet tobacco in
their eyes so that the pain may keep
them wakeful a few hours longer. 9th
ers again will work till they drop from
sheer exhaustion and sleep as they lie
until aroused by comrades. A Chinese
torture is to keep men without sleep,
and banking" does this to an extent
to satisfy even the most exacting Ce-
lestial The men sleep in their under
clothing. When above decks, they can
never leave off their oilskins, for on the
Banks it is rarely fine. Mist and murk
prevail, and the rigging and sails drip
water alWays.-Ainslee's.

A Clerical Pun,

On one occasion at Athy, where Can

archbishop whom he induced to visit
a new coffee house which had just been
opened in the interests Of temperance
Naturally the distinguished guest was
served with sample cup Of coffee. he
tasted it, while Canon Bagot and the
manager waited in complacent expec.
fancy of commentator.
They were disappointed. The cup
was hastily set aside by the bishop,
who calculated, with prolonged and I'M
mistakable emphasis:
"A-bom-in-ablep'
Then the manager suddenly remem-
bered. "Oh, your grace" he explained,
"a box Of matches fell into the coffee
tank this morning, and did not think
it right to waste all the contents of it."

THE SOUND OF A PIANO.
Seeming Defects That May BE Often
Due to Exterior Causes.

Seeming Defects That May he Often
Due to Exterior Causes.
: "a piano." said a dealer, twill some-
times develop or seem to develop a
flaw in some one note, which comes to
have a rattle or jingle or unpleasant
burr to it, but this Earring sound which
seems to come from the piano may in
reality come from some source quite
outside of it.
'Any given note when struck pro-
duces certain number Of vibrations to
the second. There may be in the room
some object that is in tone sympathy
with some particular note, and that
will be set in motion by it when that
note is sounded.
"The owner of fine piano sent to US
one day to say that there was some
thing wrong about a certain note of
the instrument, so that that note had
an unpleasant sound when struck.
When heard the note sounded, knew
at once that the disagreeables rough
ness or buzz about it was due not to
any defect in the piano, but to some
thing somewhere about in the room,
and, asking the lady to strike that note
occasionally, walked around the room
to see if could locate it.
Passing across the middle Of the
room as that note was struck, the
cause Of the Earring accompaniment Of
it was discovered to come from the vi
bration Of one of the glass globes on
the chandelier overhead.
'The owner of the piano was almost
incredulous as to this, the sound had
seemed so plainly to come from the
piano itself. But when at my request
she stood under the chandelier and
struck the note she was readily con-
WINGED.
81 made that globe immovable and
then struck the note on the piano. The
answer was clear and sweet and true.
$50, you see, the sound Of the piano
may for one thing depend much upon
its surroundings, and what may seem
to be defect in piano may be in re-
atty attributable to something quite
apart from the piano itself.
"And thus it might easily be that
some noble instrument that had SEEM
ed to be declining or to be developing
faults owed it's apparent change to a
change of environment or to some spe-
cific outside cause and was in reality
as good as ever, as would happily be
discovered whenever the instrument
was again brought under favorable
conditions" Chicago Inter Ocean.

Deserted at the End,

he lay The body remained on the floor

The Ingredients of Fireworks.

The chief constituents of all fire
works are gunpowder and it's ingredi-

borings, free from rust, are used to in
crease the brightness of the display
and produce the Chinese fire. When the
rocket explodes up in the air, the bright
and varicolored sparks are produced by
these filings as they ignite in the oxy-

Copper filings and copper salts are
used to produce greenish tints. A fine
blue is made with zinc filings. A light
greenish tint with much smoke is made
out Of sulphuret Of anthony. Amber.

Of strontia make red light. A green

High street there flow several streams
which ultimately discharge into the

These streams receive the storm and
surface water from the street by means
Of the ordinary street grating. The line
is dropped through and fastened to the
end Of a stick small enough to go
through the CRATE. When the fish is
hooked. the line and stick are dropped
through the grating, and the fisherman
rushes to the point where the stream
energies from under the street and is
there able to recover his line and land

A Remarkable Record.

Chamberlain's cough Remedy has a
remarkable record. 1t has been in use
for Thirty years, during which time many
million bottles have been sold and used.
1t has long been tie established and
main reliance in the treatment of Group
in thousands of homes, yet during all
this time no case has ever been reported
to the manufacturers in which it failed
to effect cure. When given as soon as
the child becomes hoarse or even as soon
as the croupy cough appears, it will pre-
vent the attack. 1t is pleasant to take,
many children like it. 1t contains no
opium or other harmful substance and
may be given as confidently to baby
as to an adult. BY Tibbctts & CO.
