The Quack Music Teacher.

There are many common types: Inc

pupils to make a living, the broken

lessons a week at from SO to So each
and many more. Their halt-hour les
sons may be said to consist one-thlrd
of chat and gossip, one-third of scales
and exercises, and one-third OF the
singing of the pupils favorite songs,
all interspersed with just enough conf

pupils good opinion of both herself

a Pirate Fish.

There is a pirate ship with sides OF
FURNISHED gold and silver sailing I'M
der the sea and it's prey is the flying
fish
The warmer waters waters OF the In
dian and Pacific oceans are the favor
ite haunts of this interesting robber,
and of neither the typhoons nor the
cyclones is he the least afraid. These
gales, the most furious that blow, do
not destroy his craft, for he has nfy
canvas to be torn, nor are there spars'
for the wind to howl through. VI the
lightning of such warm sea storms he
has no dread 1t may be that III tAe
yellow fame he sees only his own re-
Election, for every change in his po-
sition reveals some different shining
color-blue and silver and green ana
gold.
This pirate is the coryphene, most
splendid and beautiful fish, but most
voracious creature, feeding chiefly
upon it's finny neighbor. There could
not be better time to view his beauty
and his greed than when he chases the
little flying fish that float through the
air above the water without moving
the wing-like fins that grow upon their
| breasts.
What marvellous little animals to be
| upborne by the same agents that may
enable them to swim! Their hlghts
are very short, for, as they must dip
| into the sea for refreshment. NO one
knows precisely whether they enjoy
! their little upward flights or not, but
to see them scampering over the white
sea foam, then plunging into the dark
err waters, would make you think OF
new kind of "hide and seek" 1t is
when they are sporting so in the mar
nv sunshine that their old enemy, the
coryphene, wages war upon them.
AS soon as he sees them take wing
he darts to the surface and leaps over
the water some 20 feet or more; then
under it glides his hungry beauty
hidden from his victim by the Whlrllng
circles that he makes as he goes. An
other pirate is right under the flying
fish, some of whom fall, weary from
their flight, into his eager jaws.
But even then he is not satished. he
seems to measure his springs So lnae
each one will bring him under the
very spot where the exhausted flying
fish must drop for water, and he takab
care that they rise no more.
He is not always so clever. The time
comes when he pays the price for his
appetite. His own flesh is delicious
fresh meat and the sailors are very
fond of him. Knowing his particular
fancy to catch him they cut strips OF
elittering tin in the forms of the fly
ing fish and bangle them in the ar
Then the voracious coryphene seize's
them and pays the penalty. But did
YOU ever hear that he is more beauti-
full than ever as he dies? The colors
are more brilliant then and glow with
greater hangefulness.-Ind

In China.

If you boys and girls had been born
on the other side of the world IN
China you would have done lots OF
things exactly opposite to the way you
now do them. For instance:
You would go to bed when you are
getting up, and vice versa. Your din
ner would begin with dessert and
would end with soup. (You think
that's a better way, do your The men
fly kites while the small boy looks on
When a Chinese boy wishes to be re-
spectful or polite he leaves his hat on,
instead of taking it off as mother tries
to have you do. Your family name
would be Smith John, instead of John
Smith, as you are in America.
Chinese sailors say the wind is west
north or east-south, instead of north
west or southeast, as ours do. Soldiers
in China wear quilted silk petticoats,
satin boots, bead necklaces and carry
fans and umbrellas. What do you
think of that, boys?
When a horse is to be mounted for
a canter a Chinese boy mounts from

we do. If you went calling with your
father in China, instead of the little
pasteboard that he has engraved with
his name he would take visiting card
four feet long and painted red.
School children sit with their backs
to the teacher and study aloud. Men
wear long hair, women short When
anyone dies in China, all the family
put on mourning; but the mourning is
white, not black. The Chinese think
their seat of understanding is the
stomach, and not the brain, as we sup
pose. They set off their fireworks in
the daytime instead of at night.
If you have an enemy, and he is g
Chinaman, all you must do is to offend
him. For revenge he will kill, not you
but himself, and to make his revenge
more terrible, will do it on your door

BROUGHT LIFE BACK.
Man Dead from Electric Shock Has

Is it possible to restore life to a

He succeeded in restoring to life an
animal that had been dead from
strangulation for Is minutes. The re-
suits of his experiments was then
given to the medical profession in a
paper in which he told how artificial
respiration had been induced by press
ure upon the thorax of the animal, tho
injection of a solution of salt water

DR.. Grille has now tried the same
experiment upon human subject, the
body being taken two hours after
death. The attempt to restore life
was not wholly successful. but circu-
lation was produced in the body three
hours after death. and an hour later
there was a response from the
heart, leading the surgeons to believe
that if they had got the subject IN time
they would have succeeded.

to be expected. In fact under ordinary

siderable short interest. The buying
movement was lacking in vigor and the
resulting advance was very moderate.
The weak tone of the later market was
clearly enough due to renewed apprehen-
