According to the old proverb, the
members OF the shoe makers family
must wear old shoes and the tailor's
son raIment made from material that
father cant sell william A. Ridings,
California streets star amateur fisher
man. will tell YOU that the rule holds
good in the realm OF HIS favorite sport
and that catching 4 lot of fish does
not always mean fresh 1sh for the
fisherman's own eating.
RidIngs wrought great havoc.this year
among the smelt. He made his headquar-
ters at a nearby seaside resort and by.
his industry with his rod kept the hotel
table plentifully and CONSTANTS. sup
piled. The day he made his banner
catch he had started out before the.
sun and. had stayed with the. fishing
for at Least an hour later than usual.
He returned with. the biggest basket
OF the season and the keenest appetite.
that ever sauced an evening meal.
BY way Of putting q real razor. edge
on the aforesaid appetite he took a
swim in the breakers before dinner.
which was in progress when he en-
tered the dining room.
e e g
The. air OF the refiectory was heavy
with the aroma OF fried smelt From
the tables around him he could hear
comments. on the size and de1icacy of
the toothsome fsh-his fish.
Never mind the soup" he told the
dark eyed waitress, .I'll make my din
ner on fish. And he added. I'm hun
cry"
For three days Ridings had been
bringing in smelt A new boy had been
hired in the kitchen. This boy had
been brought UP in thrifty ways and.
as it developed later, was unfamiliar
with the perishable nature of dead fish.
Each day Ridings had brought in more
fish than the hotel could USE and each
day, after dinner. the new boy had been
directed to throw out the unused fish.
They looked too good to him for such
wasteful disposition and instead of
throwing them away he had carefully
placed them in nice warm closet
near the stove.
The waitress delivered Ridings' or
der in the kitchen.
Get me four nice big smeit," said
the cook to the new boy.
The boy remembered that there were
some unusually big fish among those
he had saved The cook was too

from. There were other and more
wholesome odors arising from the stove
to disguise any warning that might
have issued from the four three day
old smelt which he took from the boys
hand and dropped into the frying pan.
In due time they reached Ridings.
@ Q @
That's about ALL He didn't eat the
fish. In fact, he took no dinner at
all that night. Rulings is gentle
man and 1t would be possible, with
perfect propriety, to repeat everything
that hotel that evening, and he over
looked nobody. Ridings is Britisher,
but the British lions loudest roar
would be mild purr. compared with
the roar emitted by that gentle fish,
erman when he opened out the first big
smelt and received that awful message
from the dead
This story Is respectfully submitted
to students of etymology for such light
as it may throw on the origin OF the
name OF this particular family OF fish.

MONEY.

The movements OF currency and the
attitude OF the local lending institutions
during last week were favorable to an
easier tone In accommodations, and a
slightly reduced tension in rates for speci-
fed periods Banks In New York gained
practically double the amount OF cash
during this last week than they did dur
ing the week previous. and this fact
was commented on in view Of the near
approach Of the crop movement, which
usually causes currency 10 be shipped
west in greater volume each week until
the demands have been complied with.
However, this season Is unusual. as the
prospect OF large deposits OF Treasury
funds in the country banks have allayed

nocted and for the time being the interior
