Two Fish Stories.

A reputable physician tells the
following remarkable fish stories
which he declares are absolutely
true:
Il Vas fishing in a small
stream; and was having consider
able luck catching perch and
suckers, when my attention was
arrested by q ripple passing
rapidly over the surface of the
the water. Evidently there was
some serious trouble. At last
the ripple came near enough to
where | was standing for me to
iobserve what TIE disturbance
was. The explanation was this:
A moccasin snake had attempted
to swallow, head foremost, a
black catfish. When the catfish
was about halfway down the
neck, he stuck out his fins on
both sides, making it impossible
for the snake to force him up or
down. After making a good
many circles, the moccasin dis
appeared, leaving me to con-
lecture as to what the upshot of
the predicament would be. 1t
may be that a fellow mocassin
came to the rescue.
ION another occasion | was
fishing in a much larger stream
and had caught four goggle-eyed
perch. These l put on a strong
string and tied them out to
root. What was my astonish-
ment, when | came back in the
afternoon to get my fish, to find
that they had disappeared and
huge yellow catfish more than
four feet long was a prisoner!
That cat had swallowed the
whole string. That night the
negroes had a great fish festival

ment. One state after another
is declaring for prohibition, or,
at least, for local option. In two
thirds of the area of the nation
the sale of liquor is prohibited
by law already, and the saloon
is fighting for existence in the
other third. Various reasons
have been assigned for this re-
formation, but one contribution
cause has not been given the
credit it deserves. and that is the
growth of the candy habit.
Scientists have long known that
the taste of sweets and the ap-
petite for alcohol almost never
exist in the same person. If d
topper can be persuaded to take
up the candy habit he is pretty
apt to find himself minus his
taste for hard liquor in a short
time.
