or FISH EGGS
German Method OF Matching Out Of
: Water Gives Excellent Results
With Trout and Salmon.

Matching fish eggs out Of water may
sound absurd. but it is nevertheless
true that the most important stage Of
the Matching may be passed out Of
water and that this makes possible a
considerable simplification of the
Matching apparatus. The method has
been tried in Germany with trout and
salmon eggs and has given excellent
results.
The eggs, thoroughly washed, are
spread to an even thickness on trays
about 6 inches square and but " inch
thick, says the Popular Mechanics.
The bottoms of the trays are
formed Of cloth, made fast to the I'M
der side Of frame very much like
that of window screen. These egg
trays hold about 1000 eggs each. and
each one rests on a second type of
tray, called an air tray This tray

PRACTICAL USE OF sExTANT
Instrument Determines Angular Dis
tances Between Two Stars
How 1t Is Done.

The use of the sextant is to deter
mine the angulare distances between
two stars This is done by means of
rejecting mirrors and a telescope.
The telescope is directed so as to re-
ceive in direct line the rays from one
of the two stars under observation,
and to receive by reflection from mir
rors the rays from the other star I'M
der observation The mirror (m) is
directly in the line with the telescope,
and the upper part of the disk CON
tanning the mirror is of plain glass,
which transmits the light from the
star directly The lower part OF the
disk contains mirror The other
mirror (a) is fixed on a movable limb
of the sextant. When this limb is
fixed at zero the two mirrors are pa
rallel The limb is moved about and
with it the mirror (a) until the ray of
light (ga.) is reflected through the
mirror (a) to the mirror (m), and

Laundering FrIIIs.

Before putting in the laundry the
Dne-side plated frills and frilled col
lars, which are SO pretty and popular
and yet SO hard to do up,Y run a
row of basting stitches about an inch
from the outer edge. That will hold
the plaits in position while washing
and will save time and trouble later
in ironing. This is especially true IL
you are not the proud possessor Of a
patent plating iron.
These frills, by the way, should,
when possible, be made separate from
the blouse and buttoned, hooked or
pinned on, SO that they do not have
to go SO often to the tub. They
really do not get dirty so quickly as
the more exposed parts Of the blouse,
and they are great nuisance usually
to wash and iron, even with the pre-
caution mentioned If you buy a
ready-made blouse with frills stitched
on, it is an easy matter to rip them
off and supply buttons and button
holes.
