sHAD IN MATCHING.


Lying at anchor in the Delaware
River off Gloucester Is little vessel
painted an immaculate white, which
bears across her bow the name. Fish
Hawk, the Philadelphia Ledger says
She belongs to the United States fish
commission. Her crew is clearing her
decks for action, laying out long
spawning tables and toiling away in
preparation for the millions of shad
eggs which will soon come to the YES
sci from the fishermen up and down
the river
While the Fish Hawk has been EN-
ware many seasons since 1881, this is
her first visit here in four years. She
covers the entire esatern coast from
the Kennebec to Key West.
The work of egg collecting Is done
by the crew of forty-three men, all of
whom are experts. They go out to the
fishing grounds in small boats towed
by steam launches and there secure
from the market fishermen the shad
which are about to spawn. These eggs
are fertilized in large pans and after
several days are placed in jars in
which they hatch in from four to seven
days tie length of time depending on
the temperature of the water. When
the shad have attained the size of half
an inch they are taken to the river
beds and turned loose.
The Fish Hawk has collected as
many as 125,OOO,O90 eggs In a season,
so to 80 per cent of which have proved
fertile. In nature, it is said, not
per cent of the eggs hatch. The Fish
Hawk has $50 Matching jars, each ca
pable of holding $4,000 to 10000 eggs.
When the fish are Matched they find
their way through drain pipe into
an aquarium, where they remain until
turned out.

MISSION DOCTORS IN CHINA,
Surgical Operations I'm Foochow Ne
RfdfcuIousIy Low Prices.

Some of the best surgical work in
the world is done by medical m ssion-
aries, who often have the poorest kind
OF equipment in the way of building
and apparatus, says the Boston Tran
script DR. H. N. Kinnear, at the head
OF a hospital in Foochow, has been
obliged to use the settling room OF
his own house for an operating room,
but last year he performed over 500
operations with only his wife and un-
trained natives Tor assistants. A new
hospital is in process o. erection on
high ground. which Will bring the
buildings into prominence from large
part of the city. OF the nearly $4,000
patients treated last year several came
from high-class families, and they were
most appreciative Of what was done
for them. A distinctive feature of this
and all mission hospitals is the person,
usually a native Christian, who acts
as kind of chaplain Many of the
patients have never heard the gospel
story, and while they are being helped
physically they listen willingly to what
is told them. Religious services are
also held every day in the room where
people await their turn and receive
the bamboo TALES that decide the or
Ter In which they are to be seen. Fees
are ridiculously small, according to our
American standard, cents being the
maximum. except in special cases,
when the munificent sum of 30 cents Is
charged! This allows precedence to
men who wear the long gown of the
literati and object to waiting while la
borers and women receive attention.
DR.. Kinnear is resourceful man and
often uses the Chinese queue to hold
In place the dressings of wounds about
the head or as sling for the support
OF injured or diseased hands and arms.
He writes that he considers medical
missionaries the most favored of all
workers. Yet his salary is far below
what he could earn as a surgeon in the
United States.

HOW Money Get. Into CircuIntion.


There are four different kinds of le
gal tender in this country. They are
gold and silver coins, gold and silver
certificates, treasury notes and ma
tional bank notes. When gold bullion
Is brought to the government mint to
be coined the person to whom the gold
belongs is paid by the government in
gold coin, while those bringing silver
bullion are paid in silver certificates.
Owing to the fact that gold easily
wears away and that gold coin, aft
er being in circulation for some time,
would lose some of the gold the value
deteriorates. There would not be the
full amount of gold in the coin and
the actual value would be less than
the face value. The government In
stead of allowing the gold to circulate
puts 1t into its vaults and issues Ger.
tificates OF deposit which entitle the
holder to the face value of the GER
ti1cate II he presents it at the treas.
ury, and he Is given the amount OF
gold 1T calls for. The same is done
with the silver, but merely because
silver Is too heavy to carry around
In large quantities. The silver certi1-
Gates are in the form of one and two
dollar bills. Treasury notes are mere
ly promissory notes issued by the gov
eminent. No certain amount has
been deposited in the United States
treasury for them, but the govern
ments credit is behind them. Ma.
tional bank notes are the same as the
treasury notes with the exception that
instead of being issued by the govern
ment they are issued by the national
banks. whose credit is good, for tho
government backs them.

A newspaper has 5000 readers for
each 1000 subscribers, says the AL
bion, Mich, Recorder. A merchant
who puts out 1000 hand-bills gets
possibly 300 or 400 people to read
that is, if the boy who is trusted to
distribute them does not chuck them
under the sidewalk. The hand-bills
cost as much as a half column adver-
tisement in the home paper All the
women and girls and half the men
and boys read the advertisements.
Result: The merchant who uses the
newspaper has $500 more readers to
each 1000 of the papers readers.
There is no estimating the amount OF
business that advertising does bring
to merchant, but each dollar brings
somewhere from $40 to 500 worth of
business.
When man is caught in one exag-
geration he will have a pretty hard
time trying to convince the world that
all he says it not colored by exaggera-
ton. The first exaggeration may have
been innocent enough. 1t may do no
harm. But, leaving out all moral con-
siderations, exaggeration and untruth.
fulness in advertising are mighty bad
business They serve well enough
until the truth is found out; then, as
the old adage has it: Truth is
mighty and will prevail" The exag-
gerator must be on the strain con-
tinually to exceed his last exaggera-
ton. He will have to appeal each
time to new set of customers This
1t is impossible to do continuously
among any one class of people. The
old proverb may be true that there
is sucker born every minute" But
1t is very dangerous to attempt to
found stable business supon such
foundation of sand
We wonder if our home merchants
ever stop to think why the big mail
order houses are so successful. Their
success lies in their continual adver-
Using of their goods, says the Hunk
vile (Mo.) Herald. They never stop
advertising because of changes of sea-
son or for any other reason. The
country newspapers have been fight
Ing these mail order house hard for
years for the benefit of the home mer-
chant, and some of the merchants ap-
preciate this and some of them do
not. If the mail order houses would
practice advertising by "spurts," in
certain seasons of the year, like some
country merchants, they would soon
go out of business. While the local
or home merchant keeps his business
under bushel," so to speak, or out
OF their local paper on account of hot,
dry or wet weather, or bad roads, they
are giving the mail order houses the
advantage of them before the people,
for those houses never stop advertis-
Ing for any kind of weather or for
dull times.
