thought that sharks 70 or 80 feet long

thought that sharks 70 or 80 feet long must have been common.
 Many years ago a Norwegian bishop in a learned paper brought to the atten- ton of the scientific and theological worlds a shark which he attempted to prove must have been the great fish that swallowed Jonah. This was the basking shark (Cetorhinus maximus) known also as the elephant or bone shark, which is an lnhabitant of the polar seas but occa- sionally strays as far south as Virginia and California and in former : ears was not rare on the United States and British coasts The species has the habit at times of collecting in schools at the sur- face and basking in the sun with it's back partly out of water It reaches a maxi mum length of 50 feet and is exceeded in size by only three or four animals ex- tant. Provided with small teeth it feeds on fishes and floating crustaceans, and is not of ferocious disposition. It is dan gerous only by virtue of it's great bulk and when attacked it's powerful tail easi- ly demolishes boats In former years the baSking shark was hunted for it's oil on the coast of Norway and Ireland it was also harpooned on the shore of Massachu- sets in the early part of the last century and as many as 12 barrels of oil were sometimes obtained from the liver of one shark. There are many records of bask- ing sharks 25 to 3S feet long from the coast of New York. Massachusetts and Maine, but the species. has not been com mon in our waters in re.;en- years
 The largest of all fishes, the largest of all cold-blooded animals and the largest of all existing animals, with the exception of a few species of whales, is the whale shark (Rhineodon typicus) originally edscribed from Good Hope, but

position, some being as harmless as doves and others the incarnation of ferocity.
 "The sleeper shark (Somniosus micro cephaius), whose scientific name fits it so admirably, appears to have developed it's body at the expenss Of it's brain, for it is a sluggish, stupid islutton, about six times as long as an average man. At home Tn the Arctic regions, it sometimes makes visits as far south as Cape Cod, the British Isles and Oregon. It is most of- ten observed lying quietly on the sur face, apparently dozing and easily ap- preached, but at .imes, when hungry, Il rouses itself and fiercaly attacks whales, biting huge pieces out of their sides and tails, and when feeding on the carcass of a whale which has been killed by hunters it is so voracious that it permits spears and knives to be thrust into 1t without seeming to take any notice.
 "One of the most prodigous and per haps the most formidable of sharks is the 'nan-eater' (Carcharodon carcharias). It roams through all temperate and troplcal seas and everywhere is an object of dreda Its maximum length is 40 feet and it's teeth are three inches long While there are few authentic instances of sharks at tacking human beings (prior to the re- cent tragedies), there have undoubtedly been many cases where SndThS SiIIply swallowed people who had fallen over board, just as they would swallow ary other food How easy it would be for a man-eater to devour 6 person whole may be judged from the finding of an entire 1O0-pound sea lion in the stomach O. a 3O-foot shark on tl,e California coast A certain man-eater 36 1-2 feet long had jaws 20. inches wide, inside measure, aad teeth two and one-flaii inches long. This may have been the great fish of the scripture narrative, and it is possible that at that time much larger man-eaters ex- isted than are now known as shark teeth with cutting edges five inches long have been found on the sea bottom, and these are believed by naturalists to have be- longed to sharks not long dead. The phosphate beds of South Carolina yield very large fossil teeth of shark which was related to the man-eater of the pres ent day, judging from the comparative size of these teeth. Professor Goode
