Some Swift Fish.

Recent experiments show that the
dolphin, when pursued. can go through
the water at the rate of about 30 miles
an hour. This is great speed, but for
short DISTANCE the salmon can do bet
ter, since it has frequently been known
to swim at the rate of 40 miles an
hour Among the smaller fish it is
doubtful if there is one which is more
swift than the Spanish mackerel. AS
a rule, however, all those fish which
prey on others are remarkably swift,
which is only natural, as, if they lacked
speed they would be unable to hunt
successfully for prey and would often
be obliged to go hungry
