"CRUCIFIX FISH" ODD CURIO
Figure of Man on Cross Plainly Re-
Veaed on Dried Skeleton Of West
indian Product

Joseph Reichenbach of 80 Henry
street, has a curiosity in the way Of
fish which throughout the West In
dian country is known as the ''crucifix
fish" and is regarded with a mixture
Of reverential awe By the natives, who
throw specimens caught in their nets
back into the sea and cross them
selves when they come on the skull Of
one.
The dried skeleton of this fish shows
plainly on the under side of the skull
the figure of man on a crucitiX with
a halo about his head On the other
side of the skull is a figure Of a monk
with a cOWl bending before an altar.
Mr.. Rechenbach prizes the speci-
men very highly. He keeps it in a
little wooden box like a coffin. For
merly he was barber in the Hotel Of
St. George, and one day John L. Sui
livan, the famous pugilist, happened
in and Joe showed him a specimen Of
the odd fish. Sullivan was deeply inn
pressed, and expressed a wish to have
one like it, so Joe made him a gift
of a duplicate of the fish.
There are other peculiarities about
this fish skeleton which Joe has. When
it is lifted up and shifted there is a
rafting in the skull like dice rolling.
Those are what are known as the "air
bones. ."-BroOklyn Eagle.

True Trachoma Easily Transmitted

At a recent meeting of the Ameri-
can Medical association DR.. John Nc
Mullin, surgeon, q. S. Public Health
service, started lively debate in the
section on preventive medicine by
reading a paper in which he asserted
that much Of the so-called trachoma
which afflicted the eyes of American
children is not trachoma and not con-
tagious.
The original cause Of this infiamma-
tion Of the eyelids is unknown, but
It is known with certainty that it Is
transmitted with ease from one eye to
another There is another type called
folliculitis, which is not contagious
and can easily be cured, while the
true trachoma necessitates a slight
surgical operation and careful treat
ment; and, even with this, it is by
no means certain that it is ever per-
manently cured.

Preserving the Salmon.

Completion of an improved $4,000
salmon hatchery at Madison, Conn.,,
for restocking eastern streams with
the valuable food fish that disap-
peared from that region practically
a century ago, is awakening renewed
interest in the cause Of that early de-
pletiOn, according to Popular Me-
cbanics Magazine. The too common
construction of dams without proper
fish ladders, blocking the seasonal as
cent of the salmon from the sea, ex-
plains the impending loss of this
great natural resource, a condition
often technically difficult of correc-
ton because many Of the streams are
not listed as navigable waters.

ODD BELIEFS OF JAPANESE
Popular Superstitions Have Mostly
Sprung From Moral Precepts
and Are Quite Harmless.

There are many popular, as distin-
guished from religious, superstitions
In Japan. These originally sprang
from mostly moral precepts and are
quite harmless. They prevail more
widely among people in the rural and
mountain districts than among city
dwellers and among the older and ig-
and educated groups. Some of these
superstitions are:
At marriage ceremony dress OF
purple color is taboo, lest the mutual
love of the bride and groom be soon
lost, as purple is a color most liable
TO fade
If while a person is very Ill cup
Of medicine be upset by accident, it
is a sure sign of his recovery; he
needs medicine no longer.
Fire is the spirit of the god KOjlin.
1t is supposed to have a purifying eff
feet and must be respected. TO step
on fire, to throw refuse in it, will
cause the wrath Of the god and hence
a calamity. The bore is not unknown
In Japan, and the Japanese are pes
tered with visitors who sit their wei
come out and drive their hosts into
a frenzy of eagerness to get rid of
them. The Japanese recipe of getting
rid of them is as follows: Go to the
kitchen, turn the broom upside down,
put towel over it and fan it Justify.
The tedious visitors will soon depart.
Japanese babies and children are
not allowed to look into mirrors, for
If they do, when they grow up and
marry they will have twins.
When measles, chickenpOX or whoop.
ing cough prevails in a neighborhood
and parents do not wish to have their
children become infected they put a
notice on the front door stating that
their children are absent.

Kansas Farmers Are
On Side of Labor

Washington-During a general dis
cussion at the recent Agricultural
Conference held in this city, Mr.. Lans-
don, of the Kansas Farmers Union,
among other things stated that $4,000
organized farmers in Kansas, and the
Nebraska Farmers Union by unani
nous vote of it's convention a week
ago, had refused to ask the repeal Of
the Adamson eight-hour law or to
seek by any other means to pull the
wage-worker down to the same con-
dition of slavery as the farmers now
suffer. They wanted the farmers to
move up, not the wage-workers to
sink lower.
He challenged the claim that freight
rates could not be reduced except at
the expense of rail wages. One great
railroad corporation operating in
Kansas had recently declared divi-
dend of so per cent on it's common
stock, another had paid 81 per cent,
and another 80 per cent. The average
railroad worker got only about $500
year and it was time that the
farmer joined hands with organized
labor for their mutual benefit by re-
sisting the attacks of their common
enemy.
McSparran of Pennsylvania and
Simpson of the Oklahoma Farmers
Union, following a forceful plea by
Samuel Gompers, asked the farmers
to remember their cause was labor's
and that they would gain nothing by
an act of hostility to the men who
are the best customers of the farmers
products.

CONDENSED WISDOM

Do what's right, come what may.
A bad man is far less dangerous
than a cunning one.
An undertaken is a man who fol-
lows the medical profession.
Wealth may not bring happiness,
but then, neither does poverty.
The fellow who is always looking
for snap usually lacks ginger.
Cool heads are needed just now in
the labor movement. Keep cool.
Yesterday is dead-forget it. To-
morrow has not come-don't worry.
Today is here-use it.
Too few know when they have
enough, and fewer know how to en-
ploy it.-William Penn.
If the shoe fits, wear it-unless you

THE ISSUE.

The success of Albert j. Beverdge against Sena-
tor New, in the Indiana republican senatorial pr-
mares created a sharp debate in the senate to
its significance. The matter soon turned upon the
probable political issue in the fall campaign. Some
democrats expressed the belief that it would be a
league of nations fight. Republican leaders believed
that economic problems would be the ISSUE
1t is difficult to great deal of distinction
between these viewpoints. Our domestic economic
situation is wrapped up in the Eropean problem.
We must export goods in order TO prosper. There
fore the question of whether the republicans have
"made good" involves every phase of party policy
which affects general business conditions This
cludes a league of nations. for many will argue
that the route to economic rehabilitation lies along
the lines of cooperation with the league of nations
in the rehabilitation of our foreign customers.
Strangely enough politicians connive and
scheme and attempt to guide, but the American
people have a way of making their own issues When
the time comes. Often even the most astute poti-
clans the turn which events will take
in g campaign.
1t is our guess that the question, Have The
republicans made good?" will very nearly express
the issue in November

UNCLE wIGGILY AND THE
PULPIT JACKS.
By. Howard B. G.ris

"What is going on now, Uncle
! Wiggily?" asked Nurse Jane, as
she stepped from the hollow
stump bungalow one morning, and
saw the bunny rabbit gentleman
sitting in his auto near the side
stoop. what is going ON now?"
my cap is going on, for one
thing" said Mr.. Longears with q
queer little twinkle of his pink
nose, and he put his cap on his
head, between his ears, in such q
funny way that Nurse Jane
couldn't help laughing.
"But l didn't exactly mean
that" said the muskrat lady. II

Where are you going off in your
auto again?"
"Oh, just adventuring-just ad-
neutrality-suspicious. for something
to happen" lightly answered. Mr..
Longears.
well, 1 hope you don't get a
puncture, as you did yesterday"
spoke the muskrat lady. "You
might not find any sticky pine

the hole"
I'm not afraid OF puncture
today" answered Uncle Wiggily.

YOU never can tell what is gong

thing did happen to Uncle Wig
gily, though it wasn't a puncture
Ill tell you that much.
Twinkling his pink nose, and
waving his paw in farewell to his
muskrat lady housekeeper, Uncle
Wiggily started off in his auto. He
rode there and here and there,
looking for adventures, but he
found none, and he was about to
give up and go back to his hollow
stump bungalow when, all of a
sudden, he heard in the woods
some sad voices saying:

So the funny gentleman did
this. bending up straight with his
paws the fallen Pulpit Jacks. and
tapping the earth firm over their

hoped back to his auto. "Some

"Oh, nonsense!" laughed Unclc
Nyiggily. II don't do favors for

The bunny gentleman got in his
auto and rode off again, and 1t

afterward it began to rain hard.
But, being in his car, Uncle Wig
