Such a vessel is built with especial
view to being easy to anchor in a
heavy sea. This is one of the i'm
portant qualities of Gloucester fishing
craft, for practically all their fishing
is done from dories and the smacks
lie at anchor throughout, except when
they are shifting ground, although the
smaller vessels often run out with the
dories and help to set or haul travis.
These big Grand Banks schooners
carry immense cargoes. The F'laher-

and on her first trip she loaded 600, 900
pounds of cod fish.

She is of the "knock-about" form, a

ago. 1t was viewed a bit specifically at
first and the arrival of the early

got rough or the winds began to blow

Children who are fond of going to
geological parks and menageries to see
the animals hardly realize what vast
expense, what labor, hardship and
peril are necessary to provide them
with this form of amusement and in
struction. Thousands of men are at
work all the time, risking their lives
in out-of-the-way corners of the earth,
in order that a continuous supply of
wild animals may be furnished for ex-
hibition in Europe and America.
AS the earth is more and more set
tied by civilized men, the wild animals
become more and more scarce, and
those which escape the hunter, retreat
to the most inaccessible forests and

them harder to catch.
Some animals are getting exceed
ingly scarce One of these is the gil
raffe. Only three specimens of this
long-necked creature were caught and
sent to Europe in twenty years. A
well-built and healthy giraffe is now
valued at between $4,000 and $4,000.
The rhinoceros is also a scarce ami
NAL and extremely difficult to catch.
1t has to be caught when young and
brought up on milk. 1t does not
stand travelling well.
Lions, also, are caught when they are
young, and brought up on goats milk;
it is next to impossible to catch
grown lion.
Although elephants are not as plen-
tiful as they were once, there still
seems to be a considerable supply of
them. There is always demand for
this great beast, which the ancients
used to call shaking mountains"
There is a growing demand in all
parts of the civilized world for wild
animals now, owing to the increase in
the number of geological parks and the
interest which all children are taking
in creatures from strange and far-off
lands.
Even in Japan the Emperor has es-
tablished a geological park, for which
he recently ordered lions, bears, tigers,
ostriches and a large collection of
smaller animals.
Not long ago one of the kings of
Europe sent a telegram to a great
German dealer in wild animals, saying:
Ship me twenty-five elephants" And
the dealer had the elephants on hand
and filled the order

gerous calling, and the hunters are fire.

SO when you stand before the lions
cage, think of the men far off in Cen
trail Africa, who at that very minute,
are probably stealing through the will
derness with dangers all around them,
looking for young lion that they may
capture it to send to the United States,
where it may grow up to delight thou
sands of children and brighten them,
perhaps, by his roar-all that will re-

Or think of the hot jungles of India
and of the white man and a host of

stealthily hiding and waiting for a
chance to make a spring and carry off
one of his pursuers.

Indebted to Henry I of England for the
opportunities they have to see strange
animals in a captive state, for that
monarch may be called the father of
the modern menagerie and geological
park. His virtues were not many, but
love of animals was one of them.
The king used to send to distant
countries begging the rulers of those
lands to send him specimens of strange
animals. He was particularly interest
ed in camels, leopards and lions. and
he gathered a considerable number of
those animals in "A park which he es-

The king was especially delighted
with porcupine which some one sent
him, and which had never before been

When the fleets of old Gloucester
went out to prepare for this years

scudded through some squalls and
sleet storms TO reach the fishing
grounds of the Georges and the Grand
Banks. Except for the fishery of
mid-winter. the early spring fishery

see smacks return with colors at half
mast. Easter is sure to be a time
OF mourning instead of rejoicing for
at least a few of Gloucester's families.

Great is the laughter of other crews

ONLY PARTLY TRUE,


Popular Ideas Regarding Catarrh.
1t is the common belief that what is
popularity known as catarrh is simply
a chronic cold in the head. This is
true as far as it goes, but as a mat
ter of fact catarrh is by no means
confined to the nasal passages, but
extends wherever the mucous mem
brane extends, which means nearly
every part of the body.
The mucous membrane is the inside
skin of the body and is nearly as ex-
tensive as the outside skin, and any
Inflammation of this membrane caus-
ing an extra secretion of fluid is real
ly catarrh.
Catarrh is, therefore, an old enemy
disguised by many confusing names,
for instance: Rhinitis is nasal ca
tarrh; laryngitis and pharyngitis
throat catarrh; gastritis stomach ca
tarrh; cystitis and nephritis, catarrh
of the bladder and kidneys.
Therefore, although the location of
the trouble gives it various names, in
reality the sum total is catarrh and
nothing else.
Do not make the mistake of think
ing you have no catarrh because the
head and nose appear to be clear. II
there is a cough, tickling in the throat
and hoarseness you have throat ca
tarrh; if there is no appetite, but nau-
sea, gagging and disgust for food, es-
pecially in the morning, you have ca
t2rrh of the stomach.
The surest treatment for every form
of catarrh is an external remedy
which acts especially on the blood and
mucous membrane: such a remedy is
the new preparation sold everywhere
by druggists under the name Of STU
arts Catarrh Tablets. a medicine in
pleasant tablet form and containing
all the best and latest specifics for ca
tarrh
Stuart's Catarrh Tablets contain in
highly concentrated form, bloodroot,
red gum OF the Eucalyptus tree, and
many other equally valuable curative
elements. and no one who suffers from

THE VALUE OfCHARCOAL
Few People Know How Useful 1t is
in Preserving Health and Beauty.

Nearly everybody knows that char
coal is the safest and most efficient
disinfectant and purifier in nature, but
few realize its value when taken into
the human system for the same cleans
ing purpose.
Charcoal is q remedy that the more
you take Of it the better; it is not a
drug at all, but simply absorbs the
gases and impurities always present
in the stomach and intestines and
carries them out of the system.
Charcoal sweetens the breath after
smoking, drinking or after eating on
ions and other odorous vegetables
Charcoal effectually clears and i'm
proves the complexion, it whitens the
teeth and further acts as a natural
and eminently safe cathartic.
IT absorbs the injurious gases which
collect in the stomach and bowels. n
disinfects the mouth and throat fror,
the poison of catarrh.
All druggists sell charcoal in ono
form or another. but probably the hest
charcoal and the most for the money
is in Stuart's Absorbent Lozengas,
they are composed of the finest now,
dered Willow charcoal. and other
harmless antiseptics in tablet form or
