USEFULNESS OF SHARKS.
4 Word of Praise For the scnvengers

probriously the tiger of the seas" or
the sailors foe" or any other scurril-
Gus name which happens to be handy.
Much mud is thrown at him, and rs he
seldom finds defender most OF 1t
sticks. Hard lines this, Because in
reality this blue water bogy is a hum,
bic and useful public servant, who per-
forms uncomplainingly the duties con-
lected with the sanitation Of the seas.
The shark is the common scavenger
and general undertaken of the ocean.
He Is not and, for reasons connected
with his very moderate speed limit,
never can be primarily fish Of prey.
Open any captured shark and you will
find clear proof that this is so. A few

The Slow Story Teller.

Friar Lawrence checks the impetu-
Gus Romeo with, "He stumbles who
runs fast" a sentiment true enough,
perhaps, but one which ought never to
be repeated to the constitutionally slow
story teller. l like good story and
am ever ready to applaud a good story
teller, but heaven save me from the de-

when they do they murder it-and in
the next place the long stories, the i'm

ously funny stories they deal in chiefly
