Our Own Ike Walton,

The salt mackerel is sluggish fish
and easy to capture if one goes about
1t properly. 1t has none of the strenu-
ously aggressive defensive tactics of
the black bass. but once fairly hooked,
1t is a joy to the sportsman's eye TO
see II leap into the air, its silvery
sides cleaning as the salt that shakes
from them sparkles in the sunlight.
The salmon is one of the canniest
of our indoor fish. Casting for it In
the top shelf of the grocery is no anna
teurish feat True sportsmen will
have none of the pot-hunting tactics
of going after 1t with a basket The
true way to get the greatest enjoy
ment of fishing for the canned salmon
is to provide yourself with a sharp
can opener and spear the fish with
that, the bright red label on the can
affording a fair mark.
A great many fishermen confess to
a liking for the timed sardine, which
is how in the open season. Different
fishermen have their differing bats.
but if you may approach the sardine
softly and quietly until you are near
enough to squeeze some lemon juice
on it, the prize is yours Another bait
that will land them if no lemons are
obtainable is TO extend the hand con-
tanning cracker spread with mustard.
The sardine will leap at the cracker.
The bright golden coat of the
smoked herring renders it attractive
to the angler who appreciates a color
full game. Holding the nose in one
hand and a sponge of chiOroform in
the other, YOU may attack the
smoked herring, great schools of
which are being graduated at this
time of the year.
The lobster is fair game at all
times of the year. 1t is enticed by
pleasant smile and quickly landed by
some remarks about pretty dress or
a bracelet. The lobster turns deep
red when it is stuDg.

The Odor of Clay.

The peculiar odor of clay is un-
questionably due to organic ingre r.
ents. Although this cannot be isolat-
ed or detected by chemical analysis,
they can be classified according to
their physiological effects, which vary
widely. Rohland has succeeded in
transferring the odors of clay to sac.
charate of iron and has thus recOg-
nized 10 distinct varieties. Louis has
made similar observations, employing
ammonia as a vehicle for the odOrs.

Tips for Travellers.

avoid if possible, especially ii you are
going on an ocean voyage. The only
occasion on which you will find sea
sickness at all useful is when You are
thrown in company with large,
square, jawed person who insists upon
telling you how he made his money,
and who deems it his duty to advise
you as to the path of success. This
sort of a man always wants you to be-
gin in some obscure hamlet on a dol
lar week and save all above your
expenses until you have enough to
purchase the framework of monop-
oily. Even though you argue with him
that every obscure hamlet is now
crowded with beginners, he will tell
you that you are wrong. Where sea-
sickness is of value TO you is when he
gets it.
1t is perfectly easy to tell when you
are going to be seasick The bother
about this incident in your voyage is
to adequately describe it afterward
There are many remedies for sea-
sickness Lemon juice is a specific,
1t should be taken attached to ten
pound weight of some sort, The
weight is of no therapeutic value, but
it. helps you to keep the lemon juice
down
Another unfailing cure is to get off
the boat and walk around on the land
for awhile.
/ In crossing the ocean you will OBJ
serve here and there in isolated spots
a lonely man atop of tall pole. You
will be particularly impressed by this
sight, because the man will be cheer
lily working away in this lonesome
spot, perhaps a thousand miles from
home and loved ones dear. He is one
of the linemen for the wireless tele-
graph company, and he is stringng
the imaginary wires for that service.
The pole on which he is perched is
also imaginary, the same as the poles
of the earth.
Before you get too sympathetic
about the man, ask the captain and
he will readily inform you that the
man is also imaginary.
