KNOW HOW TO TELL IT.
Party of Alma Gentlemen Claim To Have
Caught Trout without Hook or Line.

Every devotee OF Sir Isaac Walton is
we'll aware of the difficulty in sharing
that wary game fish, the brook trout.
and how at times IL is impossible to nc
tice one OF the species from its lair, on
matter now tempting the bait or how
scientifically the Il y is cast in the waters
where he is supposed to be hiding. Not
withstanding all this, we are asked to
believe that an eight inch trout was
landed by an Alma gentleman near Nc
Balm on Sunday last without hook or
line, a com mon long handled shovel be-
ing used for the purpose, and that the
fish was alive and in possession OF all its
faculties before being taken from the
water.
Ii seems that a party OF gentlemen,
consisting Of h. l.. Brown, @. III. Tooley
and w. j. Osborn went TO McBain last
Sunday on the Sunday excursion for the
purpose Of looking over some land in
that locality. In the course OF their
wandering they came TO small trout
stream where the fish were so numerous
that Mr.. Tooley took long handled
shovel and made scoop at the school
OF them. In doing so he landed this
trout and brought it home. We have
it upon the word of the above gentle
men that the story is true one and

GOriIIas In Battle.

''The prevailing belief that gorillas
use clubs when they attack each other
or their enemies is an entirely errO-
neOus one,'' writes a traveller. 'They
do nothing of the sort, and how such
an impression ever came to exist or
how old time African explorers ever
came to formulate such a theory is be-
yOnd my comprehension. During
long sojOurn in that country 1 had am
pie opportunities to learn the truth
about them, and what 1 discovered
there was subsequently confirmed dur
ing a protracted hunting trip in BOr-
neO.
'The fact is that in fighting each
other or in attacking or defending
themselves from other enemies they
depend entirely upon their teeth,
which are abnormally strong and
sharp and cot like a razor. They are
clumsy on their feet, but the enormous
strength of their powerful arms more
than makes up for this deficiency. In
fighting they almost invariably attack
the faces or the limbs of their adver-
Saries.

members of the monkey tribe the goril-
las favorite point of attack is the

in the alligator it is received in a pit

A Wise Provfsion.

Did you ever notice when a man
smites his thumb with a hammer while
putting down carpet under his wife's
supervision how quickly he thrusts the
bruised and thrObbing member into his
mouth? People think it is because the
application is soothing. But the move
ment is purely involuntary, like wink
ing. The man cannot help it.
The fact is that nature knows what
a man is apt to say under such circum-
stances and so has provided him with
an automatic stopper. Whenever he
hits his thumb hard enough to hurt
and it doesn't take a very hard blow
almost to kill a man when he is doing
something he doesn't like to dO-by a
sort of interlocking system his thumb
flies into his mouth. and for the critical
moment speech is cut off.

An odd korean Custom.

Everybody knows the fOndness of the
adult Chinese for kitefying. The KO-
rean, however, puts this pastime to
a use altogether novel. When the
time OF good resolutions comes around
at the new year the Korean writes on
a kite all his faults, "ev1 disposition,
impatience bad words, street fights"
etc. cit was so dark" says one Amer
lean residing in Korea, relating such
an instance, that Ho kite could be
seen, but when the Korean had run
the string out to its full length he cut
it and let it go, imagining that so he
had rid himself of his enemies and
could begin the new year with new
courage"

There are two popular deIusiOns

supply taking care of itself. As a mat

which, having to exist in absolutely
dry rivers for a portion of the year,
have developed lungs, while in many
