One of the most curious of all ma
rine creatures that have been brought
to light in recent times is the fish
head here shown, possessing start
lingly human-like appearance. The
"old man of the sea-" as the fish has
been dubbed, was picked up in the
waters around Cape Town, Africa. The
photograph shown was made In Africa,
the head not being manipulated In any
way. The ragged outline at the back
of the head shows where It was sew
cred from the body. The outlines on
the lower part of the face are natural,
and are the outlines Of the maxillary
and other bones of the jaws. The
nose has shrunk somewhat in drying.
In life, the resemblance to the human
face was even more striking. The
conical front teeth are shown. The
lateral teeth are very strong and mol
ar like, evidently for the purpose of
crushing shells. Photographs of the
head have been sent to number Of
well known authorities on ichthyolo-
gy in Europe and Africa for the iden-
LITIGATION of the species.

latest, am certainly one of its most
important services on behalf OF man

a second hospital and school on

Of these cars to be sent wandering
up and down the steel-tracked high
ways of the United States, but the
first one, which was introduced less
than yer ago, went forth with SO
modest a heralding that the general
public heard little of it or its work.
No sooner, however, had Car No. |
entered upon the work of giving in
struction in first aid to employees of
various railroad systems than it be-
came evident that a single car would
be insufficient to meet the demands
for this new service. Accordingly a
second car was arranged for-an old
parlor car being purchased by the
Red Cross and Febuilt for this speci-
flc purpose. Henceforth the Red
Cross officials will be enabled to real

cars are rather small cars judged by
present day standards, but this was
designedly so and is an advantage
rather than a detriment. Indeed, with
a length of less than sixty feet such
a car may be used not only on the
mountain divisions of railways, with
their sharp curves, but also OF some
trolley lines. Indeed, the car can be

WISE SHOE DEALERS

One may travel the Bowery for
many years but never will he see a
pair of shoes exhibited in any of the
outside showcases. 1t is the belief of
the shoe merchants of this section
that a pair of shoes hanging in a
showcase is too great a temptation
for those who happen to need them.
The mate of each shoe exhibited is
kept in the store.
