The Sea Wolf.

A sea wolf caught by salmon fish,
ers Of the Esk in Montrose, Scotland,
is described as follows: Its mouth
measured seventeen and one-half inch
es across and when fully opened the
circumference was hfty-two inches
The lungs were like white parasol
cut In two. In the middle of the fish
were two paws remarkably like hands,
the five fingers being attached by fine
membrane. The sea. VOLTS habit is to
lie at the bottom of the water. with
open mouth. manipulating two codlike
dappers to attract its prey. These dap
pers are fixed over Its head. ON being
cut open the VOLTS stomach was found
to contain a sea gull, which had been
swallowed whole. As soon MS the bird
was removed the spectators were even
more astonished to ind a big eel, which
was still alive"

Character and rnaepenaence,

Every self respecting woman holds
herself in proper esteem and believes
that she is an independent entity. with
rights and privileges which others are
bound TO recognize She conducts her
self as IL she was force and factor
in life and occupies prominent place
In the world. This self respect Is es.
sential to the success of ali. 1t is only
when carried to the extent of making
one undniy concelted that it should lie
frowned upon. We like to see self
respecting man or woman going
through life as IL every action was
ordered by clear. intelligent mind OF
some particular purpose. If the person
did not show this power of self Inn
portance and assurance nobody else
would show respect or esteem. - House
