 there is a wriggling monster on the end of it. I have watched man catch fish after fish like this, in unbelievable numbers and at marvellous pace. kashmiri fish, for the most part, are not popular food for Europeans, as they taste like boiled cotton wool; but the European trout, recently in- trOduced into the rivers, would satisfy the taste of the most critical gourmet
 There is an extensive trout hatchery at Achibal one of the gardens and palaces built by the romantic Emperor Jehangir, to shelter his beautiful be- loved, Nur Mahal. As soon as the baby trout are old enough they are put into the streams inside the garden, and when they have reached a more sedate age they are turned out of paradise 10 chance their fate in the big river. Fishing permits are hard to come by, and the angler is only allowed to catch q very limited number of fish.
 The eight springs which feed the Achibal river are among the wonders of kashmir; there are four outside the imperial garden and four within. The water from these springs goes out into all the countryside, bringing verdure and happiness in it's train. It is most fascinating to watch the water bubbling up mysteriously from the heart of the rock. Crystal clear it emerges, moves for while in quiet eddy, then hurls itself down the Wa tercourses with rollicking, light hearted insoucianee which creates a sense of envy in the ohooker.

MAKING THE STONES COUNT
By L. M. BENNINGTON.

There is no place where the taste and originality of the garden worker can be shown to better advantage than in the making of garden wall. Al most all of the lovers of the garden have at some time cherished the de- sire to have rock garden. IL offers m appeal and field that seems to be irresistible.
 The beauty of the rock garden pros pect Is that one does not have to de pend upon natural assistance to pro- vide one. Almost any point in the gar den where retaining wall is needed, or possible, affords the opportunity for decorative effect.
 The toughest field stones, Of the kind that any farmer uses for il dry wall, may be utilized. The larger the stones the better the chance for getting the

 Fine Place for Sportsmen.
 The artist and the archeologist are, after all, exceptional people, and Rash mir is mostly remembered as the hap py hunting ground of the sportsman. It is easy to arrange shoot from a houseboat on the Jhelum, for wild duck abound, and at some seasons flights of wild geese make q tempting mark for the really expert shot. Then chikor, as the local partridge is named, may be had with little difficulty by climb ing up the foothills.
 Big game shooting is more difficult undertaking, and the sportsman must leave the comfort of his houseboat and climb up bowlder-strewn forest tracts towards the snow-capped mountains. Unenterprising sightseers may enjoy a delightful journey through some of the nearer valleys, sleeping each night in a different log hut built for the bene- fit of forest officers.

In the bath room, especially, they should never touch the socket or wall switch while standing in the bathtub, or with wet feet on a floor where there is any we- ter, as these accidents happen at the most unexpected moment.
 "A good point to be kept in mind would be to exercise extreme caution in manipulating all lamp sockets or switches during or directly after a severe storm, which may have blown | down high voltage wires so as to cause them to drop across low tension wires supplying house circuits.

do not look bashful or timid like the women of southern India, for their men seem to grant them q rough equality.
 The river. being the sole channel for commercial transport, is crowded with boats laden with the produce of the country, more especially maize. All along the banks women may be seen armed with long poles pounding maize or rice in primitive mortars, while the men chop up the straw as food for their cattle.
 One of the chief industries is the ex- port of timber Great tree trunks, cut in the extensive kashmir forests, are launched into streams tributary to the Jhelum, and they float down the river till they reach the Punjab plains. Here they are retrieved in the shallow water and sold at fair profit. On the lower reaches of the river hun dreds of logs lie like derelicts piled up on each side of the bank, waiting to be refloated next spring. They are quite safe, for 1t is q hanging matter if anyone meddles with this desirable flOtSam

Of Importance to
Stout Women

One Of the greatest strides
manufacturers have made for
the Fall season is the correct de-
signing Of attractive styles for
stout women. SO great a demand
has been created for ready-to-
wear garments for stout figures
that a number of firms have or
gained to create practical, fash
ionable styles for women who
wear sizes from AZ to 54.
1t will prove very interesting
then to women who wear stout
sizes to know that we have as
sembled an unusually broad col
lection of Fall suits, coats,
dresses, waists, muslin under
wear, pettlcoats and corsets i'll
sizes to fit the woman who has
always despaired of getting
something to wear" without the
need of either making it herself
or depending on the dressmaker.
