TO DESTROY DOGFISH.
Canada Comes to the Aid of Her
Fishermen On the Banks.

BOSTON, October 12-The Canadian
government has taken sensible and eff
cient way of helping their fishermen to
escape the ravages of the dogfish tina;
destroy so many fish already hooked
and cause the loss of hundreds of dol
lars TO the men, and the plan seems to
promise d quicker relief than will come
from the efforts Of the American gov
eminent to introduce the fish as food
fish.
The Canadians have established a works
at Clarks Harbor. n. S., where the fish
ermen who are now making the taking
of dogf1sh speciality can sell their catch
The fish are ground UP. the oil eXtrac ted
and the residue sold as fertilizer How
well the fishermen appreciate the starting
or the new industry can be estimated
from the quantities OF dogfish taken along
the coast of Nova Scotia last week
A letter received here states that dur
ing the week 100 tons of dogfsh were
taken at Shelburne, 500 tons at Cape
Negro Island, Part La Tout and Clarks
Harbor, and an equal quantity at other
places. At this rate it should not take
long time to make an appreciable
diminution of the dogfish.

Reservoir Of All KNOWLEDGE,

Although there are doubtless copies Of
this famous book in every medical Ii
brary of Importance in the world. the
old gentleman at San Sophia expressed
his surprise that more people did not
come here to read 1t. In former times,
he said, centuries ago. medical men from
nople. especially to consult this volume,
for it told them all that is important
for them TO know about medicine. 1t
tells about every kind of disease that af-
ficts human beings, and all about every
plant that grows and what diseases
those plants will cure. He had several
other books on medicine, but none are
nearly as important.
And so the old gentleman continued to
discuss his treasures as fast as his
tongue could waggle, and he would not
let us go without explaining his views
on the doctrine of the atonement as
taught by the Christian missionaries in
Turkey. He did not know whether Chris
tan theoloSians in other parts of the
world were guilty of the same folly, but
the American missionaries in Turkey
were teaching the people that they could
be saved and go TO heaven no matter
how many sins they committed. provided
they repented OF those sins before they
died.
This the old gentleman declared, lis
such a perniciOus doctrine that I am
surprised that the government does not
prohibit the missionaries from teaching
it. Any one must see what it would lead
to; for if this missionary theory is cor
rect it simply offers an inducement for
men to sin. And then. when they get
old and do not care to sin any more il
is only necessary for them to say that
they are sorry and they will be forgiven
and taken back into the fold and have
just as high a place in heaven as those
who have been good and pious all their
lives
