GO BACK TO HOME STREAM
Salmon Invariably Return to Water In
Which They Were Spawned, Seem
lna to Know IL.

It has long been maintained by sal
mon fishermen, writes DR.. B. w. Ever
man in the Scientific Monthly, that sal
mon, when mature, usually, II not in
variably, return to the particular
stream in which they were hatched
It was generally believed that a great
majority Of the Ash Matched In any
particular stream would return to that
identical stream when mature and
ready to spawn, but that good many
would, or might, 60 to other streams
Some thought that the salmon return
to their own stream because they pos
sess a marvellous geographic or hon.
ing instinct, while others maintained
that the salmon, after going down to
sea as fry or fngerlings, do not wan
der far from the mouth Of the stream
in which they we're hatched, and that,
when they reach maturity, they seek
fresh water; and the fresh water most
easily found is that nearest at hand,
which Is the water Of the stream In
which they were hatched; they there
fore ascend that particular stream.
Study Of the scales has shown that
the salmon of each particular stream
possess scale characters In common
which enable them to be distinguished
from the salmon Of any other stream,
however near the streams may be to
each other.

came in the back door, he was saying
to himself: "Well, got the best of

His mother happened to be in the
kitchen. Harry, have you and the

she asked.
Harry was quick to reply: "Not this
time. You know when he was over
here last week, we made kite, and
you made me let him take it home
with him. Yesterday we made a
birdhouse, and he got to take 1t
home. SO today we dug holes, and
he didn't take them home with him."

Literature Mixed
With Love
BY FREDERICK HART

t@ 1921. by Mcclure Newspaper syndicate)
The search for books, old and new.
carried Ralph Gordon into many
strange byways. He had an independ-
ent income, and as he was q young
man with ambitions he set out to
make himself an authority on Eng
lish literature, particularly that of the
later Elizabethan period. He went far
for his books, and spent much money;
but he had the satisfaction Of seeing
his collection grow and himself ac-
knewledged among those who know as
a real bibliophile. He even went SO
far as to write little on the subject.
One day when he was cataloguing
his treasures he found that his edition
of Ben JonsoA was incomplete-that
1t hcked small and comparatively
obscure volume of the writer's early
days, one not included in the standard
sets. He Immediately set about to
remedy this omission.
But the small book eluded him. His
agents were certain that there was
copy in America-in fact, right In New
York, where Ralph Gordon lived; but
their efforts were unavailing. After a
thorough combing of the larger book
stores, Gordon announced that he him
self was going to take up the trail.
His search led him one day to
small shop on the West side-one dis
playing tattered editions of one-time
,thrillers, dust-covered sets Of for
gotten writer's and series Of paper
backs setting forth the adventures Of
such magnificent heroes as Dave
.Dauntless and Old King Brady. He
entered the place without hope; 1t
merely was the book-lover's instinct
that prompted him to overlook no
possible source, however unpromising.
In the dim, dusty light of the shop
he saw a girl come forward to wait
,On him.
"Have you" he began and then
.gasped. The absurdity of the question
he was about to ask dawned on him.
The Neshoba Democrat., 1921-06-16

Business took him away from New
York for month. On his return he
hastened to the little bookstore. 1t
was late in the afternoon when he got
there, and he was surprised to see q
sign announcing a closing-out sale, and
several hard-lOoking persons just leav-
ing with their arms full of books He
entered. In far corner he saw the
familiar figure of the girl STOPPING
over a pile of secondhand tones. At
his step she rose, looked at him., and
then, seeing who he was, ran to greet
him with a little sob. Her relief at
his appearance was so great that in
moment he was clumsily patting her
arm and whispering words of comfort
in her ear.
When she could speak again he In
quired gently, whats the matter"
But instead Of replying to his ques-
tion she suddenly dried her eyes and
exclaimed: "Ohl I almost forgot
Wait just moment" And she dart
ed off to room behind the shop.
In an instant she was back, carry
ing something in her hand; and be-
fore he could speak she showed him,
to his utter amazement, the long
sought-after copy Of Ben Jonson's lit
tle-known work.
"How-why-" he was beginning,
when she silenced him.
''Tll tell you," she began. "This
book was dads chief treasure. knew
all about your wanting 1t, and urged
him to let you have 1t, but he wouldn't,
and insisted that keep 1t from you
not even tell you that he had 1t. It's
splendid edition, not page missing,
and really quite valuable"
"I see," he replied. He was turn
ing the leaves absently when letter
fell out. He picked 1t up, and his eye
caught the name on the fiyleaf.
"What's thisY he exclaimed. "Was
your father Stephen FarwellT'
"Yes," she replied in a low voice.
Ralph Gordon knew Stephen Far
weA, as every other book-collector did,
as an eccentric old man whose chief
passion, books, had impoverished him,
and who had disappeared some years
ago. And he had been keeping shop
on the West side all this time! And
this beautiful girl his daughter, had
hidden herself with him! Tears came
to Ralph Gordon's eyes.
"But will he want to part with 1t
now?' he asked gently.
"He-he died last week." said the
girl in barely audible whisper. II
must get rid Of these old books and
things--but wanted you to have this
one."
Ralph Gordon hesitated no longer.

you too." AS soon as she had told
him who her father was he had known
her name. won't you let me take
you and show you all my books and
things-and love you little when you
aren't looking at themT
She smiled up at him through her
tears.
''Of course / WILL" she whispered.

and seemed to say philosophically,
