Fish Trained to Be Shy.

There are people in the world who
will hardly believe that fish can be
trained to be shy. Training, they ap-
prehend, has the effect of producing
confidence, and even boldness in some
creatures. Shyness is a quality inher-
ted by nature, they say, and is a
trait, under some circumstances, to
be eliminated This is a case illus
trative of the wonderful play which it
IS possible to place upon many of our
English words We are reminded of
the Frenchman who enlarged upon
!his popularity of our tongue. You
say fine for beeg tipgs and fine for
eetle tings. You say elephant is fine
animal and the needle be fine. You
say fine day when Il is glorious. and
the rain when it is 'hae,' very fne.' 4"
After all, it very economical to be able
TO condense, so to speak, our vocabu.
AIRY in this way and utilize one small
word to convey so much The fact is,
we say that fish are shy when they
really are cunning-but 1t is the kind
Of cunning which is indicated by this
word-shy. We find also that there
are degrees and varying qualities Of
shyness, judged by fishermen's par
lance. The fish are said to be gut shy.
hook shy, shy this and shy that, which
indicates that the evolution along this
line is going ahead.

BABYS SCALP CRUSTED

"Our little daughter, when three
months old, began to break out on the

good. They said she had eczema. Her
scalp was a solid scale all over. The,
burning and itching was so severe that
she could not rest, day or night. We
had about given up all hopes when we
read of the Cuticura Remedies. We at

TRAIN APPLE EATER

He was a wise man and merely said:
Well gentlemen, I'll get them.
Thank you for the suggestion"
The next day Baked Apple and
Cream" was written in red ink on the
bill of fare. There was a rush for the
apples that startled the restaurant
managers, and several barrels are now
served there every week. That sug-
gested the Apple Consumers league,
and We began at once to spread the
work, We went about calling for APP
pie, and when the restaurants and ho-
tells failed to offer the fruit we made
It our business to make life a burden
to the managers. The apple army grew
like magic and ere long thousands Of
travellers took up the refrain. Up to
that time the dish of fruit on hotel
tables contained bananas and oranges.
We filled up these dishes with apples,
and made baked apple fair partner
with sliced oranges. There can be no
doubt that this simple organization
has increased the consumption of ap-
pies by 20 per cent.
Some amusing things have grown
out of It. The Pennsylvania Horticul-
tural society met at Gettysburg one
year. This is the heart of the famous
York Imperial section, yet there was
not even the smell of an apple about

served raw. For breakfast the baked

.REvIvING HIS OLD ORCHARD
Wonderful Results Of Proper Handling
Of Aged Apple Trees in Mas
sachusetts,

Boston,. Stearns Wyman has had
an experience in orcharding which
will interest growers of fruits. Mr.
Wymans home is in Winchester, and
apple trees, some OF them half a
hundred years old, have bloomed and
fruited on his grounds without atten-
ton until last year, when he got
busy, with a view in mind Of trying
to make the old trees grow bigger
and better fruit.
Large apples were produced by a
tree which the owner believed to be
the most wretched-looking one in
Winchester. 1t was a down-and-out
growth, very old, hopelessly decrepit,
and all in as a producer when Mr.
Wyman began revival work on 1t
He cleaned out the hollow trunk
filled the void with cement, removed
all loose bark on trunk and limbs,
cut away dead branches and covered
the cut places with a preparation to
keep out the weather.
He did some very close pruning,
but that was what the old tree
needed, and very early last spring it
bloomed in a glory of gladness that
surprised some of the neighbors who
we're quite sure that Mr.. Wyman had
been too severe in his revival work.
No fertilizers were used. AS the
weeks rolled their courses the old
apple tree seemed to get into the
gayety of the sunshine and the
breezes. Bees and humming birds
quested sweetness in the hearts Of
it's blossoms, robins and finches and
bluebirds filtered through its foliage.
and early in the summer first baby
apples as big as horse chestnuts fore

ing of big fruit
