Market for Sharks Liver OIL.

1t has been proposed to start in Ma.
laysia a small export trade in shark s
liver oil. This oil is refined in Eu-
rope and sold as cod liver oil. In Oc-
tober the ocean sharks come into the
lagoon, between the barrier reef and
the atolls, to pair. At this time they
can be speared in large numbers by
people skilled in catching them. There
are several species of these sharks
and they ordinarily run from seven
to fifteen feet in length. The girth of
an ordinary shark Ia the same as its
length, and an elevenfoot shark
would be eleven feet around the body
The liver of shark OF this size gives
about five gallons of oil. The oil
brings $73 a ton. The sharks are
found in pairs and the harpooners try
to kill the male first, In which case
they are able to also spear the female,
as 1t does not desert its mate.

The walls of his house are full OF
honey bees that are swarming from
time to time adding new hives. A

a buzZing sound in the partition, and
found that a hive of bees had swarm
ed there, going in from the underpin-

would leave in time, and did not dis

Mrs. Eliza Giles Ward of Troy who
enjoys the proud distinction of being
the oldest woman in the State of
Maine, reached her 101st birthday an
niversary, recently. She is at pres
ent in good health, hale and hearty
and eats three good meals a day. She
is in the possession of all her facul-
ties with the exception of hearing,
which is slightly impaired, but she
can understand if the speaker enunci-
ates distinctly. Mrs. Wards Tooth
birthday anniversary last year was
the occasion of jubilee in the town,
of which she was one of the first set
tiers. One of her exploits on her
Tooth anniversary was taking her first
ride in an automobile, owned by her
niece, Mrs. Carrie Allen of Fairfield.
This year her 101st anniversary was
passed very quietly, as it fell on Sun
day, but many of her friends and
neighbors made short calls and ex-
tended to her their good wishes.

Given Chance to Make Good"

James Briggs, 16 years old, resid-
ing at Ebro, near Bagley, who has
been in the Beltrami county Jail here
since last summer as the result of
alleged improperly with a girl un-

but sentence was suspended for one
year. Rev. Petrie, representing the
Society for the Friendless of Mime

ney M. J. Brown for the boy and the
court decided that the youthful pris-
oner was entitled to an opportunity
at reformation. He therefore sus-
pended sentence for one year and If
Briggs conducts himself properly he
will not be sent to st. Cloud. The
lad was permitted to return to his
home at Ebro with the understand
ing that he is to accompany an ag-
ent for the Society for the Friend
