TIE Important
Problem

confronting anyone in need of laxa-
tive is not question of a single ac-
ton only, but of permanently bene-
fetal effects, which will follow proper
efforts to live in healthful way, with
the assistance of Syrup of Figs and
Elixir of SIENNA, whenever it is re-
CURED. as it cleanses the system
gently yet promptly, without irritation
and will therefore always have the
preference of all who wish the best OF
family laxatiyes.
The combination has the approval
of physicians because it is known to
be truly beneficial, and because it has
given satisfaction to the millions OF
well-informed families who have used
it for many years past.
To get its beneficial effects, always

White Fish Hatchina.

The method of Matching white fish
is interesting and decidedly unusual.
Along on either side of trough
, twelve or fifteen feet in length are
ranged glass jars which hold about
lone and half gallons of water.
They are about fifteen inches in
height and at the top are fitted with
spouts and hose through which wa
ter pours in steady stream. Many
thousand eggs are placed in the Jar
and the current of water into the jar
turns the eggs constantly in such a
manner that they are prevented from
clinging to each other or to the sides
.or bottom of the jar.
The temperature of the water is
regulated SO that the eggs will have
about the same conditions in which
to hatch as would be the case if they
were left in Lake Michigan to devel-
Top. As soon as they have matured
and the little fish begin to appear,
the constantly revolving currents
work them to the tpo of the mass
and they naturally drift out of the
Jar and into the reservoir above mem
toned. Each tiny fish is supplied
with a food rack attached to its belly
which sustains life until the young
ster is old enough to look out for
other nourishment.

More Care With Trout.

Much different is the method en-
ployed to hatch lake trout. To begin
with, the eggs are much larger.
They are laid on tray o, wire with
sides of wood. in a single layer. Tray
after tray is stacked one on the other
until the Matching trough has been
nearly filled, Then the current of
water is SO directed that it will range
downward through the several layers.
Great care is exercised by the at
tendants to transfer the eggs fire.
quently to clean trays in order to pre-
vent the rotting of the eggs by a sub
{stance that collects through some
mysterious agency.
From seventy five to ninety days
are required to hatch lake trout
leggs. The fish at first is about half
an inch in length and is very active
and playful The food sack provided
by nature is sufficient to sustain the
young fish for three or four weeks
ard disappears at the end of that
time
A peculiar thing is noticeable in
the development and care of the lake
trout baby FISH. Soon after one OF
the little ones dies, a fungus growth
appears and the body turns white.
The fungus reaches out and has a
very fatal effect upon the other little
fish on the same tray The attend.

One of the most interesting sights

Just at present it is possible to see
almost FIVE million eggs in vay'~us

thousands OF young trout and many
thousands of white fish, the latter
being so small as to be difficult to

So many young fish are now in the
reservoir at the hatchery that it is
going to be necessary to dispose OF
several hundred thousands of white
fish and lake trout in order to make
room for later arrivals. The point
at which these fish will be planted
viii be Waukegan, Ill, and the home
of the youngsters will then be in
