A LITTLE FISH'S TRICK.
How the Puffer Discomfts His Enemy
and Saves Himself.

and Saves Himself.
All the little sea folk have their
own clever way OF protecting them
selves from their enemies, but the
tpiny boxfish has about the cleverest
way Of all.
He belongs 10 the great family called
puffer, and you will see in a moment
how well the name fits him.
Just imagine the little puffer swim
ming around I'm the water looking like
small round box with head on. A
big fish comes along, sees the little
puffer and thinks: There's just "A
good mouthful for mew But just as
he darts toward him the little puffer
blows himself up like ball, turns
over on his back and floats around
with all his sharp prlckers sticking
out toward his enemy.
The big fish is dazcd; be stares at
the puffer and thinks, "Can that great
| tried 20 swallow He cant un-
derstand II, but he sees there is no
use trying, so he goes sadly on bis
way, and when the little puffer Is
sure he is gone he just empties the
water out Of his skin and goes back
10 his usual size.
Now, isn't that pretty clever trick
for little fish to playf But, you see,
Mother Nature gave the little pufrer
just that kind Of body that he might
escape from his enemies.-St Nicho-
