CLIMBING PERCH.

"Did you ever hear of Fish tax ing a trip on Land?"
 "Never!' cried both Children. 'How could any Fish breathe out or Water?"
 Yesterday" continued Daddy, Il went to an Aquarium-which, as I've told you before, is a Home for Fishes just as a Zoo is a Home for Anlmais. There I saw all sorts of wonderfui Fishes-the Butterfly Fish, all kinds

straw and string and sticks, they Topped about and seemed very angry
 "But it is the Climbing Perch Fam- fly I am going to tell you about this evening. They were all there in the Aquarium, but they had had many adventures before they came to this Land. or this Water!
 Far, far away in Africa they lived in q River, and were a very happy Family. But one day the River seemed to be drying up so fast that they couldn't find enough Water to live in. They had noticed it getting worse and worse every day for some time, and they had been hoping for Rain. But this day it was so bad that they knew something would have to be done.
 Well even if the River dries up, it won't bother us, said Granddaddy Climbing Perch, not in the very least And he gave a huge spatter-spatter with his Tail.
 'All the other Fishes looked very much worried and their Fins trembled with fear.
 Why, Granddaddy Climbing Perch said the old Mother Climbing Perch, do you want all the Children to die?'
 "I should say not replied Grand daddy Climbing Perch angrily. The very idea of your saying such thing. l am surprised-yes, surprised, and very much annoyed Granddaddy Climbing Perch's Fins wiggled with temper.
 "'Tm sorry said old Mother Climb ing Perch meekly, but I didn't just un- dersrand what you said such a thing for, and why you don't seem to be wor- ried that the River is drying up. You always used to love the Children and tell them stories.'
 "'I do still love them, and I shall tell them true story now of an ad- venture which will happen to us. Come around me, Children! And Granddaddy Climbing Perch f1opped his tail very hard.
 All the Fishes Swan over by Granddaddy Climbing Perch and looked at him out of their queer, shiny eyes.
 "'NOw, Children he began. Years and years and years ago, our great great, greatgrandfathers were caught just like this in a River which had dried up. They decided that the only thing for them to do was to try to make up their minds to die, when the Fairy Queen happened along.
 "'"I will name you the Climbing Perch" she said, "and you will be able to go from Pond to Pond in the dry seasons-and live while you are Trav- cling around here for your Family un- less you can get from one Pond or River to another-so from now on you will be called the Climbing Perch and

OWNER FLEMING ISLAND
 HAS EXPERIENCE

w. II. Fleming, owner of Fleming island, in Prince William sound, and Harry Jones, who played end on the Washington University football team. recently narrowly escaped frightful death near Knights island, when their boat drifted ashore and was wrecked. Only the Crusoe qualities of the yoy- agers saved them. Mir. Fleming has fox ranch on his island. and left the place with Mr. Jones with two blue fox to exchange for foxes at the ranch owned by Guy Whitehead and Dr. Hexby. Three miles from Knights island the engine broke down and a wind sprang up, which took away their only sail. The boat drifted between Green and Little Green islands, and on to the rocks of Montague island. They lived on clans for a couple of days, until they succeeded in making a boat from scantlings with jack knife and using a butcher knife. The nails were secured by burning them out of drift lumber. The caulking was done with old sacks they had. With this boat they reached Green is land in an exhausted condition after rowing seven hours In the meantime Miss Ella Fleming. becoming worried, started out in a boat with her little brother in search. and rowed twenty
 five miles to Latouche, from which place a party went out and found the shipwrecked mariners. To round off this story properly and give it the necessary touch of romance it need only be said that MT. Jones and Miss Fleming are engaged to be married.
