FRIDAY EVENING. JULY
A Fish With Teeth on His Tongue.

A Fish With Teeth on His Tongue.
The biggest Of fresh water fishes,
the ''arapaima'' of the Amazon, In
South America. which grows to six
feet in length. has teeth on its tongue,
40 that the latter resembles the fle
and Is used as such Some kinds OF
trout also have tile sdme peculiarly.
Fishes that swallow their prey entstj
have their teeth So supported on tc4i-
BILE bases as to bend backward, but
NOT forward. in order that their VIC
Tins shall not escape after they have
been once seized. In ages gone by
there were ~ferocIous sharks, seventy
feet In length. such MS would make a
mouthful of you without blinking.
Plenty of their teeth have been found
which are Eve inches long, whereas
the biggest of the teeth belonging TO
sharks that exist at the present day
are one and n half inches long.
Speaking of extinct creatures reminds
us that all of the early ~birds-those
of early geological times, that is-had
teeth. with which they captured the
early worms of the same period. Be-
ing descendant from reptiles, 1t Is nat
ural that they should possess a dental
equipment. but when they ceased TO
be c%arnivorous they had no teeth any
longer.

Cemeteries Where Women Gossip

Friday, the Sabbath of the Moslems'
when all true believers Of the mascu-
line gender make a point of going to
church, their wives. sisters and daugii'
tiers resort to the cemeteries and wall
for the dead. But all their time Is not
spent In weeping. and sorrow Is not
the only emotion they display, on these
occasions. They take with them
punches and garlands of flowers and
decorate the graves of their relatives
and pray and weep owe the dead FOR
a time. Then when this plous duty Is
performed they gather in little groups
and have Il good time gossirAns about
the living Thus the day of mourning
is very popular among the Moslem wo-
men. It gives them almost the only
opportunity they hive Of c~ultiyatlng
the acquaintance Of their neishbors.

Perhaps.

81 don't have nc opinion Oh these
newfaneled women's notions" said
Mr.. Hyde when his wife timidly ex-
pressed her desire to join the Woman's
Self Improvement society.
But we learn so much there" ven
tured Mrs. Hyde.
Don't believe itP' snapped MI
HYDE. "Women don't know much
that's a fact, but let 'em stick to their
domestic duties and learn them. That's
my opinion. Let 'em follow st. PauIs
jnjunction-stay at home and ask their
husbands If they want to know any
thing"
"But, john
i've settled It. and that's enough,
Jane"
But, John, that's what women have
been doing all this time, and perhaps
that's the reason they don't know
much"
And then Mr.. Hyde threw his boot
at the cat and boxed Freddy's ears for
acknowledgements.

Pleased His Majesty.

The dark monarch from sunny Al
RIGA was being shown over an engi-
neering establishment in an English
city by the manager, who in explain
ing the working Of certain machinery
unfortunately got his coattails caught
in it and in a moment was being
whIrled round at so many revolutions
per minute. Luckily for the manager,
his garments were unequal to the
strain Of more than a few revolutions,
and he was hurled, disheveled and
dazed, at the feet Of the visitor.
That exalted parsonage roared with
laughter and said something to his in
terpreter.
"Sah," said that functionary to the
manager, "his majesty say he am ber-
~ pleased with de trick an Will you
please do 1t again T'-Sketchy Bits.

S. J. G I Notes.

The=Latin class has already made much
progress in translation and in grammar
1t will be able with the present progress
! to complete Caesors Gallo Wars during
this session. The typewriting class has
also made much progress in typewriting.
The system taught is the touch system
and stress is laid upon accuracy and
neatness of work.
1t is the intention of the faculty to give
d public exhibition of the pupils class
work For this purpose manuscripts of
various topics win be prepared Gy the pu-
pills in their most tasty manner.
The work of the month has been
nearly completed and the pupils are pre-
pairing for the round of tests which the
principal will give as soon as the work is
ready. These tests have been found to
be of great benefit to the pupils. They
also eliminate the long tedious and puz-
zling examinations.
Not much has been done yet in the
line OF athletics. The pupils have been
so busy with their new books and with in
creased work that their time has been
wholly occupied with lessons. However,
a junior football team is in process Of
formation and, with the coming Of c1oltr
weather, several basket ball teams will be
formed.
The singing class will be reorganized
next week. This class will be divided
into choir bag and a elee club The
intention is not only to sing at high
mass on Sundays, but also to learn some
secular songs SO that from time to time
the club will be able to give. some pleas
ant socials to their friends.
Under the direction of Father Vincent
Scramuzza the altar boy society has been
organized, consisting of thirty members.
1t is the intention Of the Jealous Father
to have all the services of the church car
ried out with all the beauty and solern-
nifty possible. The boys are now being
trained. and new cassacks and surpliceS
have been ordered.

fare of Louisiana demands more equal
division of political sentiment among her
people and the existence of militant op-
position party to keep the dominant De-
mocracy on its good behavior, the Scribe
has taken the position of a Square-toed
Republican magazine and is giving ear
nest support to Messrs. Wogan. Loisel,
Dreyfus and Reiley, the Republican can
didates for congress in the first, second,
third and sixth districts. Governor San
ders comes in for severe criticism of his
course as public official and politician,
and the slogan, The machine must go, .
bobs up in capital letters all over the ed
itorial pages. The Scribe seems to be
very much in earnest, ana the candor and
ability with which it maintains its atti-
tude must command the respect even of
those who cannot bring themselves to an
acceptance and approval of the arguments
advanced in favor of change of Louisi-
ana's one-sided political policy and one
party government.
