A Fable.
(Harper's Magazine.)

Once there were two men and a
lady who decided to go fishing, They
took a boat and rowed quite a dis
lance out to sea, and as the fish were
not biting very we'll, the lady was
trailing her hand in the water. Sud
denly she pulled her hand into the
boat and cried, "Oh, l have lost my
diamond ring"
The water was too deep for per-
son to dive and get the ring, so, al
though the lady felt very badly about
it, nothing could be done. Just be-
fore they started toward the shore one
of the men hooked an exceedingly big
fish.
That night they had some of that
fish for dinner All of sudden the
lady who had lost the diamond ring
bit on something hard, and what do
you think it was? 1t was fish bone,

unit used in connection with pumping

the unit used by miners and irrigators
for measuring water that passes
through an orifce 1 inch square under

second feet per square mile, the unit
used to represent the average number
of cubic feet of water flowing per sec
