How TO TELL GOOD FISH.
The Flesh Should Be Firm and There
Should Be No Unpleasant
odor About It.

Fish as an article OF diet enters. OF
should enter. largely into the diet OF
both healthy people and invalids. Ia
chief DISADVANTAGES for healthy people
Is that II Is not so satisfying. This 10
owing largely to the amount OF water
II contains.
II is an agreeable change from meat,
and white fish Is very easily digested.
To be really good and wholesome, fish
should not only be fresh, but II should
also be In season. II should be no
more eaten out of season than game.
Care should be taken also that the
fish is mature, 80 that the flavor OF the
meat may be at Its best. After spawn
ing 1t makes very poor diet. The
flesh is then soft and of blush color,
and after 1t is cooked 1t has not the
fiakiness that characterizes good fish.
Fish must be perfectly fresh. otherwise
serious results may follow after eating
1t. It deteriorates more quickly than
any other form Of animal food, and
consequently the first essential is
freshness. II It is at all woody" its
flavor is gone and the meat is insipid.
The important points to remember
when choosing fish are: % It should
be firm to the touch, that is, II pressed
on by the finger the flesh should rise
again instantly; there should be nc
impression left.
It should have no unpleasant smell
It is considered a good sign II the tail
is slightly curved upward. II fish Is
fresh the eyes are bright. the gills
red, the flesh firm and the scales moi
easily rubbed OF.
Fresh salmon has between the flakef
q creamy white curd, which solidifef
in "a hours.
Fresh smelts have an odor of newly
cut cucumber, which they lose within
II hours after being caught.
In choosing lobster take the tail an6
pull 1t away from the body. II 1t Is
elastic and springs back the lobster II
fresh; II not 1t Is stale. The best lob.
sters and crabs are tested by weight
those Of medium size having the finest
flavor. A small thick turbot is to be
preferred to larger, fiatter one.
Fish vary much in their digestibility
salmon being utterly unfit for veal
stomachs, and the firber of cod, hard
Salmon and herring have fair amount
Of fat. A healthy person can digest
almost any kind Of fish, but the fish

the boy, as he reached over to the

the cork. Eminent scientists agree
that horseradish is the only thing that

one to keep his blood circulating, and
his temperature occasionally soaring
above the normal, he had failed In
health, and had read with mixed feel
ings of JOY, fear and resentment that
the Bad Boy and his dad had ar
rived home. and he knew 1t could not
be long before the boy would blow in.
and he was trying to decide whether
to meet the boy cheerfully and with
a spirit OF resignation, or to meet him
with club; whether to give him the
glad hand. or form himself into q col
umn OF tours to drive him out when
he came.
He had accumulated a terrier dog
since the boy went away. to be COM
pany for the old singed cat, to hunt
rats in the cellar, and to watch the
store nights. The dog was barking
down cellar. and the old man went
down the rickety stairs to see what
the trouble was. and while he was
down there helping the dog to tree a
rat under sack Of potatoes, the Bad
Boy slipped into the store, and finding
the old man absent, he crawled under
the counter. curled up on a cracker
box, and began to snore as the old
man came up the stairs, followed BY
the dog, with a rat in its mouth. The
old nan heard the snore, and won

and gave him good shaking. The
boy set up q yell that caused the
plaster to fall, and the old man al

went to the door to call policeman.
The boy kicked the dog of, and raised

the old cat to raise her back and spit
cotton. and as the old man saw the

case, and a large smile pane over his
face, and he said: Gee, ,whiz! where

"The porter was not in, 30 turned

Boy got behind the old man and
