FISH FARMING NEW INDUSTRY
Method of Livelihood That Is Begin.
ming to Attract Good Deal
of Attention.

A new method of livelihood, as ~&
as new method of living, is af.c1 led
by fish farming, which is rapidly
growing industry. 1t may be a lazy
mans job, but for development be-
yond an addition to the family living,
of course, it takes time and attention
A running stream or an acre of pond
can be made to earn more money than
a well-tilled five-acre farm, says the
Peoples Magazine. The national
government, as we'll as many states
through their fish commissions, not
farming, but will also supply the
young fish or eggs most likely to
thrive best in the locality But best
of all perhaps is the recognition that
farmers all over the country are COM
ing to, that a private fish pond is a
splendid source of food supply. 1t was
no long time ago when such a thing
had not been thought Of. Now gen.
orally there is a comprehension that
such a private pond costs little to

nish far more fish than any one fami-
ly can eat The demand for fish
adapted to this kind of pond culture
is greater than the supply, and farm
ers enterprise enough to have ponds
have no difficulty in selling the prod
uct. Many farmers sell eggs as well
as fish to other farmers and to the
governments Of state and nation.
Private fishing clubs are a great aid
in the same way. Fish can be
shipped anywhere If they are kept
cool and moist, and this makes it
easy to find market almost bound
less in extent But fish, of course, are
subject to diseases that at times
cause large losses, and the official
fish service is at work constantly
finding out these diseases and their
remedies. Most of these diseases, it is
said. come through impure water
caused by contaminated streams. II
the water is kept pure, the fish farm

PEOPLE TAKING TO WALKING
Most Healthful Form of Exercise Has
Become Popular Fad Among
All Classes.

Walking has taken a hold on popu.
lar fancy as a sport, pastime, recrea-
ton and form of exercise. Walking
has been urged upon the people by
men and women interested in public
health. by physical culture enthusi-
asts, by nature students and by the
press. Every person converted to
walking has become a missionary, and
unusually with all the spirit of a con-
vert. The walking habit, which is be-
ing contracted by an increasing num-
Der of persons yearly, is relatively
new habit.
In those days usually referred to
glowingly and somewhat indefinitely
as the good old times" walking was
not practiced as a pleasure, but only
as necessity, and as a necessity it
was avoided wherever possible. The
average person did not move around
much unless with the aid of a horse
or horse and trap. There was not
much going to and fro on foot. Walk
ing was apt to be considered as sign
of poverty or as evidence Of dement,?
On the other side of this question
may be said that in the olden time
more men got their exercise in the
open by their daily work than now.
Cities were small, and men were
generally not called on to walk long
distances. The cab or the omnibus
came into operation on the city thor
oughfare, then the horse car, the
cable and the electric car Now the
automobile is here. The ratio of in.
door to outdoor workers increased
and the means and opportunities fol
moving from place to place without
much physical exertion multiplied.

Reason and Caprice.

Edmund Burke says: Taking the
whole view of life, it is more safe to
live under the jurisdiction of severe
but steady reason than under the
empire Of indulgent but capricious
passion" Such wisdom should be
proclaimed these days for the practice
is decidedly against it. Men are not
inclined to conduct their lives in &C.
cordance with severe but steady
reason" but under the influence of
the very opposite passion. And the
times and customs seem to prepare
men for ''indulgent but capricious
lives In fact, inventive genius is
largely employed in preparing mo-
tives and attractions toward these
capricious lives. If there is a lee
ture or prayer meeting appointed for
certain night and a banquet or a
dance for the same time, the stream
OF attendance is toward the latter.
Between the church service and the
automobile ide the latter is chosen
too often among people of religious
tendencies. 1t Is the rule of this
choice that makes necessary so many
social reforms. 1t is the differe nee
between the steady reason and the
capricious passion. as Burke points
out.-Ohio State Journal.

Sikh,s Disk of Death.

Sikh soldiers can certainly claim to
possess unique form of weapon.
This is a hand thrown missile COM
posed of metal similar in shape to the
discus, familiar in Roman history. Its
edge is sharpened like razor, and the
weapon, when thrown with a peculiar
circular motion, has extraordinary pen
etrating power. 1t cuts like a knife
through paper when it strikes any OBJ
ject In its path.
At distance of a hundred yards the
disk is capable Of cutting its way
through a piece Of hard wood two
inches thick. 1t is the peculiar twist
given to the weapon when it Is thrown
which causes the cutting edge to bury
itself so remorselessly in anything that
1t meets. 1t is doubtful whether any
but the Sikhs could effectively use this
unique weapon.

Citv of MAGNIFICENT Distances

When the government was moved to
Washington in 1900 it was far from
being satisfactory place of residence
The city was laid out in the wilder
ness. They took to the woods" for a
capital city. 1t was the first time that
a government had actually gone into
the wilds and selected a site for cap
ital and laid out its city on a well de-
fined plan. As beautiful as we consid-
er Washington today, the minister
from Portugal. the Able Corea, who
was considered one of the greatest
wits of his time and who in 1916 called
it ''the city of magnificent distances"
so named it purely in derision. In that
day there was little but distance in
the city. As late as 1912 Charles Dick

DELAYED "Last Moments.

In the battle of Friedland, on June
IA, 1907, there was young lieutenant
In Napoleon's army named Schramm.
When the victorious general was riding
over the battlefield that evening he
came upon the eighteen year-old officer
lying on the ground MORALLY wounded
and weeping bitterly.
"Why do you weep?" asked Napo-
leon as he rode by.
Because | must die before l can

he said. Il hereby advance you to the

The unexpected promotion actually
saved the boys life. He recovered.
Later on he fought most valiantly for
the cause of Napoleon, and by the
time of the battle of Waterloo he had
already become a general. He out
lived his last moments" on the field
of Friedland by more than seventy
years.

Inactive Kidneys
Cause Disease

I shall not soon forget the benefits derived
from the use Of Foley Kidney Pills" Al A.
Godfrey. Forest Grove, Oregon.
Too much work and too little work
seem to have about the same effect
on persons past middle age. Proper
action of the kidneys is necessary to
good health. They act as a filter
and remove from the blood poisonous
waste matter which if permitted to
remain in the system leads to many
complications.
Many nervous. tired, rundown men
and women suffer from pains in the
back and sides, dizzy spells, bladder
weakness, sore muscles and stiff
joints and fail to realize that rheuma-
tism, diabetes or even Brights dis
ease may result.
If you Rave cause to believe that
your kidneys are weak, disordered or
inactive you should act Immediately.
Foley Kidney Pills have been used
by young, middle aged and old with
complete satisfaction. They act quick
~ and sure ly and have given relief
IN cases Of ten years standing.

performing the operation.
DR.. Ausplund, who is at liberty on

Anderson died while he was making
