CATCHING BIRDS IN NETS.
Method Employed Along the Coast
 Lands of England.

Method Employed Along the Coast
 Lands of England.
 In various parts of the country flight nets are used on certain parts of the coast for taking birds during the nighttime, but those at Friskney, on the Wash, in Lincolnshire, have become famous on account of their size and the quantity of birds that are taken in them.
 On this particular podtion of the coast, says the London Daily Graphic, the tide goes out for very lony way. Next to the big sea bank, which pre- vents the surrounding country from being flooded, there is large marsh intersected with dykes, and covered with glass wort, which is locally known as samphire: next to this is a big stretch of sand, and following this a vast mud fiat, famous for it's cackles. There are several men there who work flight nets-George Bray, the old wild flower, has four of the longest, con- sisting of eleven lengths, each length of net being thirty-six yards long and about six feet deep, made-of fine strong black cotton twine, with a mesh six inches square. Along the top and bot tom of the net runs thin strong cord to attach it to a strong ash pole which is placed at every thirty-sever yards distance. The lower running cord is attached to the pole about two feet from the ground, so that there Ii plenty of slack If it were placed a it's full stretch the birds in striking would often be thrown back and es cape, instead of being curled up in hopeless tangle. The best time tt catch the wildfowl is on what art known as the "darks" that Is, dark stormy nights with high tides and th' wind blowing north and northeast Quiet moonlight nights are bad, as th' birds, flying low, see the net and avoit the snare by rising over the top of it

THE VALUE OF CHARCOAL.
Few People Know How Useful It Is in
 Preserving Health and Beauty,
Costs Nothlng to nv.

Costs Nothing to TIy.
 Nearly everybody knows that char coal is the safest and most efficient disinfectant and purifier in nature, but few realize it's value when taken into the human system for the same cleansing purpose.
 Charcoal is a remedy that the more you take of it the better; it is not drug at all. but simply absorbs the gases and impurities always present in the stomach and intestines and car ries them out of the system.
 Charcoal sweetens the breath after smoking, drinking or after eating on- ions and other odorous vegetables.
 Charcoal effectually clears and inn proves the complexion, it whitens the teeth and further acts as natural and eminently safe cathartic. It absorbs the injurious gases which collect in the stomach and bowels; it disinfects the mouth and throat from the poisan of catarrh.
 All druggists sell charcoal in one form or another, but probably the best charcoal and the most for the money 1 Is III PludIl 1udlI f4JIHNAl6SPt they are composed of the finest pow dered Willow charcoal. and other

JUDGE CLEAVELAND'S CHIEF
 CLERKS MAKE GOOD.

During the twelve years that Judge Cleaveland was the judge of probate he had five different chief clerks. Many of them resigned from the office be- cause of excellent positions they pro- cured, and it was always regarded as a good stepping stone to be with Judge Cleaveland. Attorney Benjamin |. Spock left Judge Cleaveland to be- come one of the attorneys for the New Haven road, and was regarded as very lucky by his fellow lawyers.
 When Attorney John Currier Gala gher left the probate court he became assistant clerk of the superior court, a hard position, but one in which there is a liberal salary. He was the first chief clerk that the judge had, John Edgerton, another lawyer and chief clerk for Judge Cleaveland, left the court to take the. position of secretary at the Law school.
