astonishing Of the deep sea dwellers
are the luminous fishes, marvelously
equipped with organs for projecting
light. These light organs are a means
Of Illuminating the dark abyssal re
gions which they inhabit and of en-
ablins them to avoid foes, recognize
their own kind and capture prey
Many Of these fishes display curious
eyelike organs down the sides of the
body forming as it were a series Of
miniature bull's-eye lanterns. Again.
others possess lightemitung organs
behind the eyes or on the head and
shoulders.
Provided with lanterns or luminous
spots, these fishes find their way in
the great depths and plow through
the dark waters ike flaming torches
Some Of the deep sea fishes are pro
vided with a rod which is hinged so
that its tip can be swung Immediately
over its back or in front of the vora-
cious mouth. At the end of this rod
is luminous lore This decoy rttracts
other sea inhabitants, which are quick
ly engulfed as they approach this
shining point
The lamp is also used by the fish
Itself in pursuit of prey, throwing out
a beam Of light like a searchlight as
it darts to and fro in the inky waters.
Many Of the fishes are totally blind;
these fall easy victims to the hunter
after being detected by the bright rays
of the lure
1t has been found that at a depth
Of 5000 feet the suns rays cease 10

HOLIDAYING IN
THE WINTER
AN IMMENSE AMOUNT or MONEY
SPENT BY WESTERN cANAoI-
ANS IN WINTER SEASON.

"Ah unusually large number of
Western Canada people are leaving
or preparing to leave 10 spend the
Winter In California"
The above item OF news was clip
ped from a Western Canada paper
early In December. In the same paper
were items OF news conveying the in.
telligence that hundreds of Western
Canadians were also taking a trip
abroad, spending tho Christmas sea,
son "at home." as they yet term the
old land The Scandinavian element
participated largely In the holiday
business OF the railroads and the
steamships. but they all had return
tickets. Early in December the east
bound trains ard boats were loaded,
and an estimate furnished by the rail-
road people gave upwards OF twelve
thousand as the number who would
make the Christmas holiday visit
abroad This does not mean that these
people are leaving to avoid the cold
ness Of the winter, nor for any ell
matte conditions whatever They
have come out to Canada and have
done so well that they can afford the
hundred and fifty or two hundred dol
lars or moro that It takes TO carry
them across and back When they
came TO Canada they did not have
that much money all told, but now
they are wealthy and on their return
will bring some OF their friends with
them
Then there are those, too, who on
their wheat farms have made suffi-
cient money that they can afford to
take holiday, and what better winter
holldaying ground could they have
than California? How many in other
farming districts of the continent |
could afford tho money and the time

FISHES WITH SEARCHLIGHTS

Some remarkable models Of fishes
that inhablt the great depths of the
Atlantic, Pacific and Indian oceans
have been put on exhibition in the
American Museum of Natural History.
They are considered the most note
worthy contributions yet made to pop
ular knowledge concerning the ap-
pearance, complicated structure and
habits Of the curious creatures that
dwell from one to FIVE miles below the
surface of the ocean, in regions never
penetrated by sunlight.
When fish from the greatest depth
reach the top they are always dead,
having been killed. by the change in
pressure in the early stage Of their
upward journey. Many of the crea-
lures from the depths are cartilagin-
GUS and do not have bony structure.
Nearly all the fishes have formidable
teeth and are extremely voracious,
with mouths OF enormous capacity; In
tact some have stomachs Of such ex-
pansion that they can perform the
astonishing feat OF swallowing ami
mails larger than themselves.
