Thereupon the appropriate salute had

WHY SALMON SEEK RIVERS
French Professor Strongly Of Opinion
q II Is Because There Is More
Oxygen There.

Louis Roule, a professor Of the
Paris Natural History museum, claims
to have solved the important biologi.
cal problem as to why several species
of fish, such as salmon, migrate to
rivers at certain seasons Of the year
1t had been tn, ght previously that
salmon, instinctively driven near their
breeding season, seek conditions most
favorable for the survival of their
young, but Professor Roule affirms
after a study of the Brittany rivers
that the amount of oxygen in the
water is the determining factor IN
their migrations. In the rivers where
the most oxygen is present in the
water will be found the greatest mum.
ber Of fish.
Professor Roule explains the neces-
sity of breathing larger amoYnk
among migrating than in the cases of
other fish, and this being interfered
with greatly during the breeding sea-
son they therefore are impelled to
seek waters with the greatest amount
of oxygen. Thus, explains Professor
Roule, all efforts to stock rivers with
migrating fish will be useless II the
water is not highly oxygenated.

HORSES THAT "DRINK" GRASS
Product Peculiar to the Hawaiian Is
lands Furnishes Both a Food
and Liquor.

The proverbial horse which can be
led to water, but which cannot be
made to drink, exists in great num-
bers in the Hawaiian islands.
Among the cattle he has thousands
of cousins Of the same proclivities.
1t is surprising statement to make,
and yet one that is literally true and
SO commonplace that no one there
thinks anything about it, and there are
cattle which never take a drink of
water throughout the whole course
of their lives.
On all the islands the upper alti-
tudes of the mountains are given up
to cattle ranges. The cattle run wild
from the time they are born until they
are rounded up to be sent to the
slaughter house. Except during pos
sibly two or three months of the rainy
season, there are no streams or pools
of water in any part where the cattle
range.
But everywhere there grows a re-
cumbent, jointed grass, known by the
native name of MAMMA. This is
both food and drink, says a recent
traveller. Horses and cattle grazing
on 1t neither require water nor will
they drink 1t when offered.
Our first experience with this fact
was on a trip to Haleakala. A party
were mounted on horses which had
just been brought in from the range,
The journey they made was IA miles,
in which distance they ascended 5000
feet.
The party started in the afternoon,
and at sunset halted for supper They
thought it strange that the horses
| should leave a feed of grain to nibble
the scanty grass which grew nearby
but were willing to trust their instinct
| in the matter.
However, before starting they in
| sisted that they be given water. The
native guide demurred to this, saying
they didn't need it, but with the good
natured complaisance of his race
| yielded to requests, and led de
tour of about a mile, which brought
the party to ranch house, where
there was a we'll. But to the utter
amazement of the travellers the horses
would not drink.
They took it as another case of in
stinct and assumed that the water
for some reason, was not good. anC
80 refrained from drinking 1t them
selves. 1t was not until the return
the second day, to Kawaapae, tina
the travellers learned the secret OF tbs
wonderful MAMMA grass.

Sad Sluhts In Mexico.

I saw beggars everywhere in Mexi
CO, many of them ranged alongside the
church soliciting aims from worshipers
or from passersby. l saw the signs of
ignorance and general depravity.
saw wounded men and suffering WON
en-. But the worst thing that l saw
in Mexico was little six-year-old boy,
badly crippled who was compelled tc
walk on his hands as well as his feet,
because his legs weren't strong enough
to support even his frail little body.
He looked like toad, but his face was
gentle and sad. He had big black eyes
that seemed to search ones soul. DC.
casionally he would stop as he crawled
along the street, and look at his torn
fingers and hands-the streets were
made of gritty little stones that cut
his flesh. If only somebody had pro.
vided him with gloves! But this was
Mexico. Nobody seemed concerned
about this little fellow. He wasn't q
beggar. He made no appeal for money
He was just little boy who needed
friendship. But "of such is the king
dom of heaven" n."-Christian Herald.

THAT VILLAGE BARBER SHOP
Dreamer of Whom the Years Have
Taken Toll Holds It Wildly In
Hia Remembrance.

To the barber's soothing snip, snip,
snip, and the gentle tug of the comb,
l dreamed of the barber shops of my
boyhood and of Clarke Parker's in
particular. Clarkie's shop was in Ly-
ceum Hall block, one flight up-a huge
room, with single green-upholstered
BARRIERS chair between the windows,
where you would sit and watch the
town go by below you. The room
smelled pungently of bay rum. Bar,
Der shops don't smell of bay rum any
more. Around two sides were ranged
many chairs and an old leather couch
The chair arms were smooth and black
with the rubbing of innumegAble hands
and elbows, and behind them, making
dark line along the wall, were the
marks where the heads of the sitters
rubbed as they tilted back. Nor can
l forget the spittoons-large, shallow
boxes, two feet square-four of them
full of sand. On third side of the
room stood the basin and watertaps,
and beside them large black walnut
cabinet, full of shelves. The shelves
were full of mugs, and on every mug
was name, in gilt letters, generally
Old English. Those mugs were a
town directory of our leading citizens.
My fathers mug was on the next to
the top shelf, third from the end on
the right. The sight of it used to
thrill me, and at twelve l began sur.
reptitiously to feel my chin, to see if
there were any hope of my achieving
a mug in the not too distant future
From The Atlantic.

Lawyers, clergymen and doctors all
fail to secure influence with the peo-
pie with whom they come in contact
because Of inability to express their
thoughts in an impressive way. Had
the voice been trained the same as the
eye and the intellect, had the exteri-
or qualities been trained to express
like the voice the best and the clear
est facts they would all have been
successful A noted revivalist who
screamed and yelled his thoughts in
the most vociferous way, disgusting
some and frightening others, wondered
why he did not make more profound
impression. The real fault was his
gormandizing habits and his discord-
ant bronchial and nasal tones. The
melodious voice of Henry Clay al
ways charmed his audience every
where. Wherever he went people
fiocked to hear him, while the heavy
bass tone of Daniel Webster failed
to attract, and actually drove people
away They preferred to read what
he had to say, but wanted personally
to hear Clay's pleasing voice.-Medi,

Rather Personal.

1t was the season of Lent. and the
vicar of a certain village church was
solemnly and impressively exhorting
his congregation to determination,
abstinence, and repentance. The
beadle, who is accustomed to sit be-
low the pulpit, is locally renowned as
the owner of the biggest mouth in the
district. Unfortunately he felt sleepy,
and yawned at very critical and I'M
pressive part of the minister's sermon.
Pause, my brethren, at this solemn
season of Lent, before # is too Late"
exclaimed the preacher, 'or you may

now yawning before you"

congregation, the preacher looked sur
prised, and the beadle little discom-'

Distinction Without Certain I'M

It is contrary to human instinct to
be idle. Some naturally prefer the
good and live to be useful. Others
evilly inclined, II useful at all, are so
by compulsion-in order to live. Be-
tween these extremes are the careless
or discouraged, who work only to get
the means of a living.
We would not be misunderstood as
meaning that, to be professional

less, the truly professional man who

he can do. He Is more anxious to be

yers professional, but, more is the
pity, some in their ranks forget that
the mission of service Is fundamental,
the acquisition Of wealth Incidental
Just as there are these exceptions
among those supposed to be of these
professional classes, there are many in
the humber walks considered to be-
long to the trades, who care more to
excel in their lines than for anything
else. They have pride in their work
and will do as conscientiously whether
their wages are high or low.
We submit that the real distinc
tion between profession and trade
is the spirit in which it is usually fol
lowed. Viewed in this light, your vo
cation is the one or the other accord
ing to whether you engage in 1t fol
what you put in it, or what you get out
of it. In other words, whether you
work for the love of it, or for the
money it brings.

Labeled the Children.

The crowded water front Of the old
Canton of a century ago, with its
thronging sampans alive from stem
to stern with swarming children. Is
vividly pictured in the Memoirs Of
William Hickey" In his account Of
the innumerable boats that covered
the river for mile after mile. Mr..
Hickey describes novel method of
protecting the children Of the floating
city from the dangers of the water.
Each child wore a large vegetable
something like a gourd or pumpkin
fastened to its back. The vegetable
was buoyant, of course, and, II the
infant fell overheard. fioated It until
the child was picked up by its par
ents or the occupants Of any other
sampan that happened to be near. This
vegetable life-preserver had the name
and station of the sampan to which 1t
belonged cut in Chinese characters
upon it, and by that means the rescu-
ers could at once identify the child;
otherwise, in such multitude of boats
great confusion would have arisen. It
scarcely ever happened that anyone
was drowned.

AngIo-saxon, ceIt and German.

The term "Anglo-Saxon" comes from
the fact that England was largely
settled, after the old Briton rule, by,
the angles" and "Saxons" from Ger
many. The Saxons were, of course,
from Saxony, and the Angles took
their name from town near SleswiclS
called Anglen. The Anglo-Saxons are,
therefore, of Germanic breed. 1t may
be said. in passing, that the Germans,
English, Americans of English ances-
try, Danes, Dutchmen, Swedes and
Norwegians are all of the same stock.
This Germanic stock (for 1t may very
appropriately be called such) now
numbers about 16O,OOO,OOO in Germany.
Great Britain, the Scandinavian coun,
tries, Canada, Australia, South Africa
and the United States. There is no
other human stock that is anywhere 80

The Troublesome Postscript.

Some years ago well-known Indf-
ana politician, who was member OF
the national committee Of his party,
wrote to an active political worker In
a distant part Of the state, to give him
timely directions concerning the CAM
paign then in progress. The poll
ticians secretary was absent, SO he
wrote the letter himself, although he
knew his handwriting was as hard to
decipher as that of Horace Greeley.
A week later his correspondent Wis
ted indianapolis. and came to see the
politician.
Did you get my letter? Could you
read it?" asked the politician.
Il didn't have any trouble with 1t.
except the postscript" said the other
man. THAT stuck me. l showed 1t
to everybody in town. They could all
read the letter, but no one could make
out the postscript"
The man drew the letter from his
pocket and handed it to the poll
tician. who gave it quick glance.
Heavens" he exclaimed. THE
postscript says, Don't let anyone see

SENT UP A PLEA FOR HELP
Sailors, Imprisoned In Submarine, TEL
ephoned Their Appeals to Rescu-
ers at Surface.

The Mingoa is one of the submarine
day several weeks ago it was out for
exercise in the neighborhood of the
lightship off Libau, with its full crew
of 10 men under the command of Lieu
tenant Garsoev, and as usual tender
was present during the maneuvers,
writes st. Petersburg correspond
ent of the Seattle Railway News. The
Mingoa, which was apparently pro-
ceeding either we'll on to the surface,
or just awash, was suddenly discov-
cred by those on the tender to take
a plunge in somewhat abnormal fash
ion, throwing its stern well into the
air. For some time it was not sup
posed any accident had happened, and
the return of the submarine to the sur
face was expected, but the appearance
of the emergency buoy gave the alarm.
These buoys not only serve precisely
to locate the whereabouts of sunk
en- submarine, but are fitted with tel
ephonic apparatus, enabling the crew
to communicate with the upper air.
The moment the tender learned by
these means what had happened, it
steamed off to the lightship, which tel
egraphed the news of the disaster to
the dockyard headquarters at Libau.
The accident happened at three
o'clock in the afternoon, but owing, 1t
would seem, to the disposal of the men
on a Saturday, the message was not
acted on for several hours, and 1t was
not until nine o'clock at night that
the salvage vessels reached the spot.
The weather conditions remained hap
PLY favorable, and divers having fixed
the lifting chains, the Mingoa was sue
cessfully brought to the surface by
midnight, having been nine hours at
the bottom of the sea. When the
after hatch was opened three men
staggered out, barely able to crawl.
Fifteen of the crew and the captain
were got out unconscious from the
after part of the vessel. There re.
mained only the coxswain. who was
in the coming tower amidships. 1t
was necessary to raise the submarine
we'll out of the water to get at the
coming tower, and this took another
three hours work, but the coxswain,
when released after IL hours confine
ment was in the best condition of any
of the crew.
