FER0cIoUS DENIzEN Of SEA
California Spotted Moray Is a Capture
Which No Fisherman Is Anx-
ious to Make

The California spotted moray, or
"sea eel" as it Is popularity called,
is credited with being the most fe-
rOcious marine animal in existence.
The commonly observed. specimens
are about three or four feet long, and
about the size Of mans wrist.
Their mouths are provided with
needle-like teeth, and their jaws are
so strong that cutting off the animals
head does not have the slightest effect
in releasing it's hold. Release can
only be achieved by cutting the head
to pieces so that the jaws cannot hold
together
Stories are told of fishermen be-
ing driven from their bouts when
large specimen got loose after being
hauled up, and these stories may ems
lily be credited, considering the dispo-
sitlon of the small ones which are COM
mon to the California coast. Some Of
those found in the deeper water reach
a length Of six or eight feet, and a
weight Of 100 pounds. The animal
can actually tie itself in e. knot, and
makes use Of It's extraordinary sinu-
osity for holding objects which 1t Is
eating, and Cor twisting and coiilng
around rocks.

FRANKLIN KEPT HIS LAURELS
Appropriately, Apostle .of Thrift Was
Allowed to Retain Ornaments for
Exceptional Time.

New York, the Sun of, that city
states, Is one place where there are al
most laurels enough to 60 around. 1t
is the custom of the city to. be- gener-
Gus with them, but they never last.
Three days is about the limit. f.~
That is, three days marks about the
length Of time when the crowd will en-
durc the sight of them on the living.
After that they view them with amuse-
ment. But when hung on a bronze
or marble statue by common consent
and the custom of the park department
they are given thirty days.
Benjamin Franklin was permitted to
keep his last crop Of laurels longer
than most statues. Although it was
by reason Of his very many illustri-
Gus qualities that his statue became a
landmark in Park row.. IL was particu-
larly because Of his position as the
patron saint Of all those who hold
thrift MS cardinal virtue that he was
adorned some weeks ago with more
wreaths than any Hawaiian ever man.

He kept them, too, until they were
Of absolutely no more use. The day

from all five boroughs to gaze ut the
bronze likeness of the publisher of

Of all the best sellers Of America-and

Take All But Cabin.

A very curious propensity of the
wolverine is its habit Of stealing and
carrying away articles which can be
Of no possible use to it, says the Amer
lean Forestry Magazine. An instance
Is recorded where these animals re-
moved and concealed the whole para
phernala of an unoccupied hunters
lodge, including such articles rs guns,
axes, knives, cooking vessels and
blankets.
Experienced hunters and trappers
claim that big wolverine may weigh
rs much as 60 pounds, but that so
pounds is the more usual weight.
They are very tenacious Of life and

Restoring Ypres.

The ruined city Of Ypres Is being
completely restored at a pace astound-
ing to the hordes Of American visitors
who have passed that; way bound for
the south Of France and the Algerian
and Egyptian resorts. The Cloth hall,
that marvellous building Of the age OF
guilds, is gradually assuming the light
and delicate beauty which has made
it rank with the loveliest Of the
medieval halls. But many of the
Americans who have dropped by Ypres
have been highly amused by the
mayors proclamation, in French and
Flemish and then translated into only
one foreign tongue. English, to the ef'
feet that the visitor is on holy ground,
and that stone or piece Of gravel
must not be removed, since all will
again be gathered together n the re-
habilitateds structuses. s.Y"' !

Richmond and other cities. The idler of today
is the pauper Of tomorrow. And if you don't
believe that truth, study the records of the
human failures here and elsewhere.
The pernicious doctrine of enjoying the fruits
of success without working for them has taken
hold of too many of US, retarding progress which
we could make, and engendering a dangerous
frame of mind.
Let a man accumulate a competence, and
his possessions, and assert that they have a
right to share it with him, forgetting that while
he toiled and saved they loafed and spent.
Back of the savings of most men are years
of self-denial and frugality That period was
the basic one of their careers. That was when
they laid the foundation of their wealth. It is
manifestly unfair for an idler and spendthrift to
demand share of the goods which a conserva-
tive and economical man saved, and which he
subsequently used to create his ofn financial in
dependence
Back of every envious complaint against the
good fortune of others usually can be found the
sloth and laziness of the person making the as
sertion. He refused or neglected to save in the
days of opportunity, and so he tries to hide his
failure by condemning the men and women who
did.
But "Old Hard Facts cannot be ignored or
sidestepped. You may fool yourself for the time
being but presently the economic law over
whelms you. The way to acquire money is by
saving it.
