TICKLING TROUT.
How Irish Ponchers Catch the Fish
with the Bnre Hand.


In Europe trout poachers have the
reputa ton of catching trout with their
bare hands. The process in Ireland IS
called ..tickling." 1 could scarcely be-
lieve that this thing was done-that
the most timid and wary of fish could
be caught by the naked hands. Read
ing Of one fellow sent to jail for tic
king" trout. I was curious enough to
try the process myself in the presence
Of an angler as witness. l found 1t the
simplest thing in the world, as far as
the ..tickling' was concerned. Ihe dit
ticulty appeared to lie in approaching
the trout But I found that this could
be done almost every time by quiet,
adroit naneuver1ng, and l shall never
forget the astonished face Of my friend
when 1 lifted from q pool q plump
trout and held him in the palm Of my
hand just on the surface of the water.
Half q dozen times I lifted the same
trout, tickling him gently on the belly
and sides. He appeared to like it, lying
over against my hand like cat that
courts rubbing l found that l could
do almost any thing with the trout car
rying them in my hand for few mo-
ments before returning them to the
water.-Harper's Weekly.

The Dignity of Labor.

We have been teaching for decades
that manual labor is degrading. We
have left it for the ignorant and the
unfortunate to do. And the cOnSe-
quence is that our industrial system
is topheavy. 1t is beginning to totter
For we must have food and shelter
whether we work in a factory, pcddle,
do business, or write books or travel
or loaf. Andfood or shelter are not
to be obtained, except by manual
labor.
Everybody is even now complaining
of the cost of living, which has enor-
mously increased the past Years.
There is one obvious way to remedy
this evil, and that is to dignity man
ual labor SO as to get more energy
in the necessary channels of produc-
ton And we can't preach it back
there. either. We have got TO set
the example ourselves by either hav-
ing fewer and simpler wants and in
making ready to serve ourselves to a
larger degree than now PREVAILS

Keep Them Out OF the Home and

II love is to flourish between two
people they must each be slow to take
offense and not only willing, but glad,
to pardon at the first and fuintcst sign
of penitence; still more, to overlook
entirely the sin which has been blum
der and an accident. Life and love
are in great part the art OF bearing
with other peoples shortcomings.
Every offender, whatever the oftense,
is in the eyes Of the law entitled to q
fair trial, and no one should be con-
demned unheard. The exercise OF a
modicum of common sense ana justice
would nip most quarrels, whether be-
tween lovers or others, in the bud
Some one has wisely said that scarcely
q novel was ever written which could
have run to the end if the hero and
heroine had been fully frank with one
another. Most discussions are founded
upon MISUNDERSTANDING.
Much may be forgiven to those VINO
love much by those who return such
affection. Nor is it sufficient to for
give without forgetting the onense.
The slate should be wiped clean and

THE HANDY CLOTHES LINE REEL

Two FairmOnters, G. B. Nay and
W. J. Cornell, put their wits together
and invented a very simple, unique
and useful article known as the handy
clothes line reel.
It is a simple device where clothes
line can always be kept in clean
and untaugled condition, and always
ready for USE and will never need to
be washed before hanging out the
clothes.
In addition to the reel is the pulley
attachment, which can easily be at
tached to the castings within the room,
or to the porch columns.
The adjustment of the line on the
pulley saves a great amount of time
and labor. The pulleys being smooth,
saves the wear of the line. No nails
to cut the line or knots to unite.
The above cut gives some idea OF
how it looks, but it has to be seen to
realize how handy it is. The reel is
manufa ctured by the Handy Clothes
Line Co., at the shop of the Check
Hook Factory. Agents are wanted
to sell the reel.

Cats. according to the old tradition,
have nine lives, but they are not the
only creatures that enjoy such plu-
rality. Infusoria have been dried and
restored to life by mOiStening after re-
maiuins inert dust for twenty-seven
years, and the drying resuscitation has
been successfully tried eleven times on
one lot of rotifers. Frogs and many
fishes suffer no injury from freezing

Dlooded animals have been restored to

House attended. in its capacity as COM
mittee of the whole. the opening session of
the Senate sitting as a high court of inn
parchment. That court then adjourned to
meet at the next session of Congress. and
before the resumption of the impeachment
proceedings the House voted to relegate to
the five managers on the part of the House
charged with the prosecution of the
charges the duty of representing the whole
body before the Senate. The House did.
however, subsequently resolve to attend the
sessions of the impeachment court during
the argument of counsel.
Thus the House has formally established
a precedent which may be guide in this
matter of RELOCATING the preliminary duty
of inquiry to committee of the Senate
The whole practice is within the control of
the two bodies, acting independently, so
far as their several functions go. A COM
piete stoppage of the legislative business
for several weeks. in order that the Senate
may listen to the taking of testimony, in
volving the detailed cross-examination of
witnesses, is what those now active in the
movement to amend the rules wish to
avoid thus undermining the impeachment
process along with other practices of the
government.

Vain Endeavor.

A man once saved his money in very pru-
dent way;
He put little by for fear there'd be a
rainy day;
He needed all the maxims about thrift and
work and health
And reverenced economy, which Is the
source of wealth.
He made some small investments. and
some larger after while.
And listened for applause, when he as
sumed a better style.
But some of those who knew him sneered,
while others simply sighed.
He had practiced all the virtues, but they
weren't satisfied.
He looked the situation DER with sadness
and dismay,
And said, II guess I'll go ahead and give
the stuff away"
He built a lot of buildings and sincerely
strove to find
A way to spend his money that would
benefit mankind.
But people looked askance at him and
said, II told you So
The art of spending money is a thing he
doesn't know.
It's scandalous to contemplate such osten-
tatious PRIDE"
He did his best to please them; but they
weren't satisfied.
