FIsH THAT CANNOT SWIM

More than one species of fish is
met with that cannot swim, the
most singular of which perhaps
is the malthe, a Brazilian fish,
whose organs of locomotion only
enable it to crawl or walk or hop
after the manner of a toad, to
which animal this fish to some ex-
tent bears a resemblance; it is
provided with long, upturned
snout.
Other examples of non-swim-
ming fishes include the seahorse,
another most peculiarly shaped
inhabitant of the sea, and the star
fish, or which there are many
specimens, which walk and crawl
on the shore and rocks, both be-
ing unable to swim.
A condor can exist without
food for forty days,

failed to arrest two crooks when
he was attacked from behind and
his senses beaten out of him, how
about firing the entire central
