Fishing and Hunting

Reports from the State AT large ndi-
cate that fishing conditions nave decidedly
improved in NEST sections during the
past few Years. This Improvement is
due, no doubt, TO The effect Of inteii zen:
and continuous stocking Of depleted wal
ers, and also to the fact that for several
seasons there has been no long-continu4l
dlaught to dry Up the smaller stream,
which act as nurseries ana sources of sup
ply to the larger streams and lakes

III some localities. however. where black
bass fishing has been excellent In former
years poor results are being reported. and
something should be done to improve
these conditions.
Black bass readily rise to the fly dur
ing the spawning season. and in some
waters they only take the fly during that
season. Consequently it is subject to
much danger and disturbance at a time
When it should be left to carry on the re-
productive functions undisturbed.
Inc common practice of fly fishing the
spawning beds, even though all bass
caught are Immediately returned to the
water. cannot but have decidedly in
furious effect upon the future stock IN
any lake. which is fshed hard, and is a
much more probable cause for the dete-
rloraton in size and quality of the black
bass in most lakes than the more IRE
quently suggested cause Of inbreeding.
II certain well-defined bounds were ST
apart in lakes as refugees. within which
the fishing for any kind of fish is prohib-
tied, and bass within these bounds were
left TO propagate uudisturbed for a series
OF years, it is probable that improved
conditions would shortly be manifest.

The Ambitious Cat
G. w. FUTILE

Many years ago, in Pasadena's in
fancy, we lived in the outskirts OF
the city. The ground about US was
new-much of it virgin soil still un-
troubled by the plow. Tarantulas,
scorpions, and centepedes were to
Be found in abundance in the hard
clay soil.
Our next door neighbor owned a
cat that certainly established a rec
ord as hunter. Everything seemed
to be grist that came to her mill.
She often caught wild rabbits, bring
ing them home in triumph. By way
of variety she brought a live snake
into the house at one time. found
her one day with very lively and
perfectly unframed quail in her
mouth, I took it from her Car fully
and it flew away as good as new
what a story it must have told of its
marvellous deliverance; of the huge
tiger that caught it mapping, and the
great giant who rescued it.
Great was my astonishment one
day to see her run across our yard
with huge old tarantula dangling
from her mouth. Suddenly she
paused, dropped the great spider
and shook her head violently. said
to my neighbor, "Mr. D., am
afraid that will be the last of your
cat"
As the bite is very dangerous l
presume that the cat was not bitten,
for she did not lose even one of her
nine lives.

II mean the little pink coral
workers. They live under the
waves and when they find . nice
rock for house they stick to II and
begin building until they become =
part of the rock.
"The little coral fairies are real
jelly-like creatures called polyps.
They are not insects as you may
think. The beautiful coral you see
is really the skeleton of the polyp
but not their handiwork. They
look so much like lovely flowers
that folks used to think coral was
a plant. Sometimes they are star
shaped, or like an aster, again they
resemble mushrooms and NOSES

MOO, your highness," he re-
Piled, trifle obviously.
"Then, why the moor" asked
the little willful princess with her
sweetest smile.
Because it is the best answer I
can give" he said, and with this
she had to content herself, for the
monkey was too wise, she knew, to
give any other-an advantage he
held perhaps over most men.
"And now!" cried the little prin-
cess, turning to her Cousin Elaine,
what shall we do? Our Eden is
Adamless, and we are left to our
own devicesW
What is our daughter saying?"
inquired the king, turning to his
queen with look of astonishment.
Are my ears playing me false, or
do l hear woman's tones in the
voice of our daughter?"
Your ears are telling you the
truth for once" replied the queen,
"for |, too, noticed the timbre in
her voice. All, me! l feel a year
older since this discovery"
Not Child.
Eyes, she is no longer a child"
he answered, watching the two
princesses as they walked arm in
arm down the garden walk, fol-
lowed by the monkey. "And yet,
she was but a child when the mon
key first came. How time fliesw
LET us go for a ride" suggested
the little willful princess. "Why
should we neglect our morning ride
just because there is one man less
at the castle?"
"Why, indeed said the Princess
Elaine, catching the spirit of her
cousin, 1--WE are now free" and she
sighed as they approached the spot
where the horses had stood for
some time, stamping impatiently at
the delay. to think that for a mo-
ment her Cousin Rupert could have
caused her a moments regret. But
had she confided her feelings to the
monkey. it is most likely that he
would have smiled at her incon-
sistency, knowing that later they
would change again.
