There was nobody in the room. but on
the table lay a cigar and nearby Stood
a box of matches, half open.
The cigar Eawned several times, for she
felt lonely, when she suddenly saw that
a match po4sed hts red head over the
edge of the box and looked at her for
several minutes. The cigar felt battered
and said Good morning" very pleas

A Curious Candle.

A curious candle is made by the Indians
on the Pacific coast of British Columbia
1t is a little fish called "Enlanchon." or
'candle-fish." In length 1t is no longer
than one inch. and looks like a smelt In
fatty material II Is the richest OF all fishes,
and from this it becomes an excellent sub
stitute for candies The Indians dry It, and
then it will burn with bright fame. Some
times they light 1t simply at the tail but
often they run a wick of woody threads
through the body of the fish Dried and
smoked. this Ssh makes delicious food for
winter use-at least, the Indians say so. and
the oil is used in place of butter by the
squaWs.
