TROUT FISHING AT NIGHT
Full Instructions Are Given by the
Greatest Of All Anglers, lzaak
Walton.

You are to know there is night as
well as day fishing for a trout; and
that In the night the best trouts come
out of their holds. And the manner Of
taking them is on the top of the water
with a great lob or garden worm, or
rather two, which you are to fish with
in stream where the waters run
somewhat quietly, for in a stream the
bait will not be so well discerned. I
say in quiet or dead place, near to
some swift, there draw your bait over
the top of the water, to and fro, and
If there be good trout in the hole,
he will take it, especially if the night
be dark, for then he is bold. and lies
near the top of the water, watching
the motion Of any frog or water rat.
or mouse, that swims betwixt him and
the sky; these he hunts after If he
sees the water but wrinkle or move In
one of these dead holes, where these
great old trouts usually lie, near to
their holds: for you are to note that
the great old trout is both subtle and
fearful, and lies close all day, and does
not usually stir out of his hold, but lies
In 1t az close In the day as the timor-
GUS hare does In her form; for the
chief feeding of either is seldom in the
day, but usually in the night, and then
the great trout feeds very boldly

Century Old Churches.

An interesting fact, and to many
people a surprising one, is that of the
5000 Congregational (orthodox)
churches now existing in the United
States 1853, or more than 1871 per
cent, we're organized a century or
more ago and have since continued
their activities in company with the
American board. All of them are To-
Gated in New England, New York,
New Jersey, Ohio and Pennsylvania.
In Connecticut 60 per cent. of the
present 1872 Congregational churches
are at least 100 years old, as are
more than one-half of those in New
Hampshire, nearly one-half in Yer.
mont and about 40 per cent. in Mass
achusetts. Only that a considerable
number Of churches that were Con-
gregational then are Unitarian now,
the proportion would be somewhat
larger

FEW RULES FOR DIETING
Too Much Trifling With Digestion
These Days and Much Harm
Results.

Here are few rules that the girl
who Is determined to diet does well
to observe. There is too much trifling
with our digestion these days, and not
the least harm is done by the notion
for undertaking.
Never diet on the advice of friend.
Her regimen may have done wonders
for her and will put you to bed OF
make you sorry-looking wreck.
Don't diet to excess at any time.
Girls, make sure she knows dietetics.
Many physicians, good in other things,
have little knowledge of the effect of
food upon the system.
If you want to diet from a cause. as
from diabetes or kidney trouble, do It
religtously; almost better not begin
than to do it spasmodically. letting up
whenever food temps you.
If you only diet for the sake OF fig
ure or complexion, count the cost be-
fore starting. Cutting out the foods
OF ordinary family meals is hard. Ask
yourself, Which means most to me.
the loss Of a few pounds or being a
nuisance at mealtime?"
Don't keep on dieting II you feel
that it disagrees with you. This holds
good even when your food list is care
fully censored by physician. The
best Of them will make mistakes.
Find out in time what is wrong.
Don't diet to excess at any time.
Women often go to the point of weak
ening their entire system by injudi-
ciously following Doctors advice.
Common sense and moderation are
good things to hold to in the matter
Of food.

To Hugo the years that bend ana
weaken and wrinkle the genius Of the
master seem but to bring fresh
strength and energy and beauty. He
ages like the lions. His brow, scanned
with august burrows, rises under =
name larger, thicker, more bristling
and more disheveled than ever before.
His yellow eyes are like suns within
caverns; when he roars, the other ami
mails are silent. Or, changing the COM
parison. one might Mken him to an oak
that dominates the forest, its enormous
wrinkled trunk bursting into leaf, its
branches mighty as trees. Its deep
reaching roots drink of the sap of the
heart of the earth, it's head almost
touches heaven. In it's vast foliage tho
stars shine at night, the birds sing at
dawn. It braves the sun, the tempest
of the wind, the thunder and the rain.
The very scars of the thunderbolt have
added to its beauty something formid-
able and superb.-Gautier's Portrait
Of Victor Hugo"
