Bombay's Railway Station

We read fascinating advertise
ments about the biggest railway sta
ton of the world sometimes in pc
riodicals and again in brightly col
ored folders. One of the largest
and at the same time most unfa-
miliar Of these biggest stations is
located at Bombay. The Victoria
station terminus of the Great In
dian Peninsular railroad stands in a
conspicuous place. The architec-
tural style is italian gothic, with
certain oriental notifications in the
domes. It cost s1,500,oo0 and was
completed in 1888. It is one of the
handsomest buildings in Bombay
and the finest railway station IN
India, if not in any country.

ONE WAY TO MOVE.
1t Pays Better In the End Than Coins
From House to House.

IL Pays Better In the End Than Goins
From House to House.
The Codmans were planning to
move. They were going to occupy
a new house in a somewhat select
neighborhood and were anxious to
make a good beginning, a favorable
impression. New furniture would
have helped, but there was not much
money to spare, so they must make
the most of what they had.
Il can improve the looks of that
old sofa for one thing" said Mr..
Goldman .meditatively. eve been
meaning for long time to cobble
that back but it's easy to neglect
such chores, You know, unless some
thing like this comes up to kind of
give you start"
Il know" Mrs. Goldman answer
ed. "Then there's that sideboard
drawer without a handle and those
loose brackets on the hall stand and
screws lacking, as you might say,
here and there all over the house.
You patch, and the girls and [ will
polish, and we shan't be ashamed
to see the furniture on the wagons. )"
That was the beginning. The end
seemed far off, when Mr.. Goldman,
having successfully tinkered the fur
niture that was in sight and use,
dived into the attic and, with fire.
quent repetitions, raised the ques-
ton, what are we going to do with
this %
"This" was as often as not some
piece that had been put away to
await small repairs that might save
it to usefulness. Mr.. Goldman made
the repairs now, and the rest of the
family played their parts at uphol-
steering and vanishing and polish
ing. They quite fell in love with the
results.
Toward the last of this period of
reconstruction generous Mrs. Cod
man cleaned house in order that, as
she expressed it, the next tenant
might ektart fair When evervs
thing was spick and span and shin
ing the family gathered their new
old possessions and disposed them
in the most effective places, Gust
to see how it would look" There
were many chances for rearrange-
ment because there was so much
material. The Codmans wondered
that they had never realized their
riches.
Then the blow fell. Yet, strange
ly enough, Mr.. Goldman almost smil-
ed as he told the news.
"Guess we won't move yet awhile"
he said. "Jerris has sold the new
house-sold it right out from under
u.s." He glanced around the circle
to note the effect of his communica-
ton.
81 don't care" said Mrs. Goldman
placidly.
s"Well, to tell the truth, I'm
glad" Mr.. Goldman confessed. 81
don't believe we could find a place
that would seem so much like home
to us. Then, again." he added
proudly, 'we've got a lot of nice
furniture, and we wouldn't want to
have it smashed up"
GIVE been thinking, john" said
Mrs. Goldman, chat I don't know
as L shall ever want to move unless
we get burned out. I've been learn
ing how to gain all the advantages
OF moving without any Of the dis
advantages. It's just to fix up the
furniture and change it around.""-

CURIOUS FISH.

They Keep Their Eggs In Natrral
Pockets In Their Mouths.
In the sea Of Galilee, or Lake Tibe-
rias, as it is also called, there Is a
strange fish named the Chromis simo-
mis-, which is more careful Of Its young
than fish generally are. The male
takes the eggs in his mouth and keeps
them in his natural side pockets. where
they are regularly hatched and remain
until able to shift for themselves. By
this ingenious arrangement the brood
is comparatively guarded against its
natural enemies 1t is easily fed, too,
but it Is a puzzle how the little ones
escape being eaten alive. Awhile ago,
says q traveller writing to religious
contemporary, 1 found in my net q
number Of these fish without eyes.
Others Of the species, when I lifted
them up, dropped a number Of little
fishes out Of their mouths, which swan
away hastily. The natives explained
the phenomenon The blind chromis
is the victim Of sea hawks. When
these birds have eaten their fill they
begin to look out for tidbits. After
catching fish they hit its forehead
with their sharp beak, knocking out
the middle part, in which their eyes are
set. The bony structure Is dropped
Into the water, but the eyes are eaten
by the birds with great relish.
Strangely enough, the fish generally
survive this rough treatment. The
wound heals up quickly in water, and
they continue to ply the lake for food
as if nothing had happened.-London
Standard.
