HIS vERAcITY WAS ADMIRABLE

Once a number of kindred spirits
were enjoying supper in the land of
Burns. When the cloth was removed
and the usual toasts were proposed
some one suggested song, The ef-
forts of the first Scotchman met with
such hearty reception that others
were induced to follow his example.
In the end ii was found that every
one had contributed to the evenings
entertainment but the medical gentle.

The company attributed this to the
doctors modesty. Good singers. he
was reminded. always needed a lot of
pressing.
Very well, said the doctor, IF
you can stand it, | will sing"
Long before he had finished his au-
dience was uneasy. The unwilling
singer had faithfully described his
voice.
There was a painful silence as the
doctor sat down. broken at length by
the voice of a Draw Scot at the end
of the table.

like everything else in the fruit market,
are sold almost exclusively by the eye,
scarcely ever by allowing customer

that an article must look well or GUS
toners will not buy. Maryland and
Delaware send forward good berries.
The middle west is producing excellent
berries. There is one grower on
Staten island who produces the high
est priced berries grown in the vicinity
of New York. He has only a few and
nearly obtains practically whatever he
chooses to ask Long island berries
are also of excellent quality and sell
readily at good prices.

GOOD LEATHER OUT OF THE SEA
Fish Skins Used in Making Many
Things.

The Canadian Harness and Carriage
Journal.-A great deal of good leather
comes out of the sea-not the kiud OF
leather that comes from the backs of
walrus, seal and otter; everybody
knows about that There is a Queerer
leather, which comes from the bodies
of fish. An extremely fine quality OF
green leather made in Turkey is manu-.
featured from the skin of al ugly fish
called the angel fish. This is kind of
sharh--a shark with thick, winglike
inns that have earned for him the name
of angel, though he doesn't lock tit
like an angel. but rather the opposite.

The sword grips Of the officers of the
German army are made from shark
leather, too. They are beautiful in pat
tern, being marked with dark diamond
shaped figures. This skin comes from
North sea shark. German leather
manufacturers have tried to produce a
leather from animal hides that shall
supplant the skin, but in vain. Unlike
animal leather, fish leather is absolute
ly impervious to water and never gets
soggy from dampness. Therefore it is
ideal for sword grips, as no matter
how much the hand may perspire, the
grip remains hard and dry.
The sturgeon, despite his lumpy ar
NOR, furnishes a valuable and a.trac-
tive leather. When the bony plates
are taken off their pattern remains on
the skin just as the pattern of the alli-
gator scales remains ON alligator
leather. The Pacific coast sturgeon
and the sturgeon of the great lakes
produce tough leather that is used to
make laces for joining leather betting
for machinery, and the laces often out
wear the betting.
The strange garfish, an American
fresh water fish, with long toothed
jaws like those of the crocodile, has a
skin that can be polished smooth until
it has a finish like ivory. 1t makes
beautiful jewel caskets and picture
frames. The skin of the garfish used
to be converted into armor by some
tribes of American savages. The hide
is 50 tough and hard that it makes a
breastplate that can turn a knife or
spear. Some of the finer specimens
that have been found are hard enough
to turn even a blow from tomahawk
The savages who were this fish ar
NOR also used to wear a fish helmet
1t was made from the skin of the
prickly porcupine fish, and besides pro-
tecting the wearers head it was used
as weapon of offence. The warriors
butted their enemies with it, and as it
had hundreds of ironlike spikes, the
operation was eminently painful to the
object Of attack.
In Gloucester, the king town" Of
fish, the humble cod has been utilized
with success for making leather for
shoes and gloves. In Egypt men walk

the unhappy member of a European
private school where one of these eel

fent Of discipline, and he has never
cared for eels since then.
Along the big salmon rivers of ST.
IBERIA the natives often wear brilliant
leather garments dyed red and yellow.
They are made from salmon skins. In
Alaska beautiful waterproof bags are
made from all sorts of fish skins.
The queerest use is that to which
the inl~stines of the sea lions are put.
They are slit and stitched together to
form hooded coats, which are superior
to India rubber as waterproof gar
ments. Walrus intestines are made
into sails for boats by the Esquimaux
of northwestern America.
Even the frog does not escape. Sew
eral factories in France and a few in
America make card cases and other
small leather articles from his skin.

have good one. They are too in
