''Great FISHES!" thought he,

The crimson crab moved his saw
claws faster and faster in front of
him, planning what to do. The large
fish swished in the pool, painting
vociferously (which is large word
but a good one as no small one
could tell it properly. Angrier
grew the crimson crab. Angrier
grew the large red fish.
The crimson crab started to crawl
sideways down the side Of the rock
toward the fish. He would dare this
creature to be the same color as
he! The fish Topped about in the
pool, splashing so much water that
barely enough was left to wet his
lowest gills. Here indeed was
fish out of water and crab dis
turbed.
Here, you FISH," the crab be-
gan. "Your color is rather ugly, it
seems to me. Who are you, any
way" ....
The fish painted more vociferous-
ly than ever.

"My color Is far more brilliant than
yours. am BUMPHEAD."
A Bumphead! Alas, what sad
memories this name brought to the
Crimson Crab! One of his children
had been eaten by a Bumphead.
And he had always heard Of the
unusual color in the Bumphead
family.

bitterly. yours seems to be

"Ah, you may talk, you CRAB"
painted the Fish, ''but look at the
shine on my back. Each scale is
a gem of beauty which the wetness
Of water makes to glimmer and
glimmer."
The Crimson Crab looked. Just
as the Fish had said, each scale
was gem of beauty and OH how
many scales he had! Thousands Of
them! The Crab had only one
crimson shell.
"Get out of this pool" he said
angrily, "you belong in the ocean,"
"Get out yourself" said the
Bumphead.

A South Sea Tale

Fish are all right if they are not
out Of water and crabs are all right,
too, If left undisturbed. But just
take a fish out of water or disturb
q comfortable crab and then
neither Is all right. ,
In a warm country where colors
are brilliant and winter never
comes, crimson crab was basking
on a rock above a pool. The Grim.
son crab found the rock above the
pool very much to his liking and
the sun was toasty warm upon his
back. The pool made an excellent
mirror into which he often looked
to admire himself. Oh yes, the
crimson crab was exceedingly vain.
There is really small wonder about
that for his color was gorgeous.
AS he basked in the sun he moved
first one large saw claw in front Of
his eyes and then the other. He
liked to look at their sharp saw
edges. He thought them the finest
pair of claws any crab ever had.
In fact, you must have guessed, he
thought himself the finest creature
that ever lived. He was thinking
this when suddenly, something
Topped into the pool beneath him.
"Good CRABISH I" thought the
Grab, "it is a large fish! And if
be isn't very nearly the same color
rs II"
1t was indeed a large fish, red,
too, with. black markings. He
tossed angrily this way and that
while his great wide mouth kept
opening and shutting, opening and
shutting. He, too, was a gorgeous
color and on the front of his head

II will not get out" said the
Grab. Il discovered this pool"
II will not get out" said the
Fish. II Topped in by accident and
I intend to stay"
The Crimson Crab struck out
with his saw claws trying to push
the Bumphead into the ocean
(where indeed he should have been
glad to go). The Fish Topped hard
er against the Grab, trying to push
him into the ocean (where indeed
HE should have been glad to go).
But neither could move the other.
The sun grew warmer and warmer.
The pool grew less and less. The
Bumphead lost much of his glim-
mer as the wetness dried from his
scales. The Crimson Crab grew
brittle in the hot, hot sun. Oh
foolish fish and foolish crab to
forget that neither could live with
out plenty of water!
Very soon a man with net
climbed up the rock looking for
crimson crabs and other ocean crea-
lures. He saw the place where the
pool had been. He saw the bump
head lying quite, quite still. He
saw the crab lying quite, quite still.
He scooped them both into his net.
He took them home and put them
in large glass case, and many
people came to see them.
ooh, isn't the crab beautiful
color?" they said. "And isn't the
fish a beautiful color. too?"
eyes," agreed everyone, 'both
equally beautiful in his own way"
And isn't it true-these two might
have been swimming in the ocean
to this day if only they had thought
Of THAT!

STATE SUGGESTS
 WATER STORAGE
Connecticut Says Metropolitan
 Area Gan Use MerriInaC

Hartford. March 5 tF-The stor- age and Altering of the waters of he Merrimac river for use of the metropolitan district of Boston, thus providing an ineNhaustible supply of water for domestic purposes, is the suggestion of Connecticut. offered today in the water diversion of the state against the commonwealth b; : Massachusetts, now being heard by Special Master Charles w. Bum of St Paul, Minn., appointed for the purpose by the United States su- preme court.
 Today Connecticut commenced presentation of evidence tending to show that Massachusetts has avail able in the eastern portion of the state, plenty of water for domestic llse which could be utilized by the Boston metropolitan district, at an expenditure far less than will De made for the purposed Swift-Ware division project The state has yeven witnesses to present evidence in the case. all experts, and it is the expec- tation this phase of the testimony so war as Connecticut is concerned, will be completed this week and the master will then adjourn the hearing 10 Boston, where Massachusetts is expected to offer it's evidence next week and complete the hearing of the case.
 The presentation of evidence has taken but half the time estimated for the work.
 Thus far, all the studies which have been made of the Merrmac river have been along the lines of filtration, such as is done by the city of Lawrence, Mass, and which has apparently given satisfaction. Con- nectcut would propose to go even further in the puriication of the water for Boston's domestic water supply. suggesting that a reservoir be built for storage where the water period considered longer than ia generally considered necessary for safety. It is then suggested that the water be filtered and conveyed in an aqueduct to a pond which has a storage capacity of 13 billion gall Ions, and held there for final convey ance to Boston. Thus the waters of the Merrimac would be within 25 miles of Boston. and it is proposed 10 show the cost of such a project. including the reservoir. aqueduct and filtration plant, would be but slightly more than the s15 5.0O0, 900 planned for the building of the Ware river project alone, and at a saving of nearly S50.OO0,00 on the proposed Swift-Ware diversion scheme.
 In addition to the enormous sav- ing in money Connecticut contends that the supply of water afforded by he Merrmac would meet the re- ouirements of metropolitan Boston for a long period of years. far in e1- cess Of 1870 when it is now admit ed, the Swift-Ware project will have been outgrown.
 As a secondary proposal. Connec- lieut. expects to show the master that there is now in eastern Massa- chusetts series of small streams and ponds which could be linked together and would provide much more water than would the proposed diversion of the Swift and Ware rivers, and at great saving in money.
