In his "Natt,ai History vt Ceylon,
Sir j. Emners.L 'renEelt states that
on one occasion lie saw hundreds OF
climbing fish crnwlingSup the bank OF
driedup pool, divers!ng In every d.
rection on reaching tie top to a dis
lance OF SO yards and still travelling
onward. The superstition is that they
travel by night or before sunrise. One
peculiarly is the large size Of the
vertebral column. quite out of proper.
ton to the rest of the body. In mi-
grating they keep their gills expanded
and moStened by curious vessel
above the gills that holds water.
When the fish leaves the water It
carries with it enough water to
moisten its gils as often as neces-
sary to sustain life. The eggs float
loosely at the surface OF tine water and
hatch in two or three days. The color
of this fish is light brassy olive.
with eyes of orange, it's length Is up
to seven inches.

Have read the article to-day that she
quoted from Margaret Brent in Get

that is worth while, l feel that l
must put my shoulder to the wheel and

| Well, really there are so many
things worth while to push up, and
some unworthy ones to push down,

divided into small portions to go all
the way around. AS it is well past bed

I say, let's celebrate August "a and

where? It. really seems too bad to ex-
pect Aunt Madge to open her house to
us every year. Who has a suggestion
or an invitation? Speak up!
| Have you ever heard of the old man
who had a hundred things to do, but he
thought he would take nap and then
| he would have but ninety-nine more to
| do? Think I better follow his example,
and then my first duty in the morning
will be to feed those ever-starving
chickens and then perhaps there will
be but ninety eight more to do.

busy to do the things we ought to do.
