species also belongs to the croaker
family.
THERE is another big fish caught in
Chesapeake Bay called the black
bonito," whose right name is cabio.
Just why it is called black bonito is
mystery. as it does not resemble the
bonito in any respect. The usual size
of this species in the lower bay is
from 10 to so pounds. When cut into
steaks it is an excellent food fish.
A fish of this species weighing "a
pounds was taken by hook and line off
Buckroe Beach, Va.
These fish are landed at times on
Southwest Middles and more fire.
quently off Windmill Point, Westland,
Va, and, of course, from there TO the
capes.
The real bonito. seldom landed in
the waters of the bay, leaves its home
in the Gulf Stream and approaches
land only in search of food for spawn
ing 1t travels in vast schools and
lives mainly in the open sea. This
fish sometimes reaches a length OF
from 2 to feet and a weight OF
from 10 to II pounds, but usually does
not exceed 5 pounds.
The bonito is called the fish OF
marvellous beauty and strength, and
is one of the oceans fastest SWIM
mers. 1t is built on fine stream lines,
and has such polished surface body
that water resistance is reduced to
minimum.
Filet of sole is more or less a del
| icacy and at one time or another IS
ordered by ALL but many with whom
| it is a favorite dish do not know they
are eating either the Winter or Sum-
mer founder. There are three men,
bers of this, family, the Winter and
Summer founder and the halibut.
The Winter founder, now being
caught in large numbers of the New
Jersey Coast, is the most widely
caught fatfish in Atlantic waters. 1t
ranges from Labrador to Hatteras.
| The Summer founder, like the Win
ter species. habitually lives at the
bottom. where its shape, color and
sand-burrowing habits effectively cam
outage it.
The Winter founder is not large
species. seldom attaining more than
20 inches in length and 5 pounds in
weight. The Summer founder is

found mostly in bay. on sandy, muddy
or rocky bottoms, feeding on small
fishes, crabs, shrimp and squid, and
frequently come to the surface in
pursuit of their prey.
The migration of the eye in found
ers is one Of the strange provisions
of Nature for the protection of the
fatfsh tribe. In early youth the
founder swims about normally. with
its eyes symmetrically placed, but as
the fish develops it lies fiat on the
sand, some species on one side and
some on the other, and the right eye
migrates over to the left side. or vice
versa, so that they ultimately have
both eyes on the same side of the
head. A large number of this species
is landed in Chesapeake Bay and its
tributaries during the Summer months
THE salt water black bass is another
fish much sought by anglers in
nearby waters. 1t usually moves slug
gishly about the bottom feeding on
crabs, shrimps. small fish and squid.
The average size of this species is 2
pounds and less, although some weigh
ing 71a pounds have been taken along
the coast. AS a food fish it takes
high rank, its flesh being distinguished
alike for its f1akiness and sweetness.
When an angler casts his line into
the waters of the Bay off Point Look
out or the Lower Potomac, he is likely
to find he has hooked Sheephead.
Unlike so many other fishes, it does
not travel about in schools. but wan
ders about singly or in small groups.
In nearby salt water its size usually
runs from to Is pounds. This fish
belongs to the Porgy family. 1t is one
of the most important fish caught In
waters of the Gulf States.
One of the few fishes that has a
goatee, or little bunch of whiskers
on its chin or lower jaw. is the king
fish. much sought by anglers visiting
Ocean City, Md, and other places
along the Maryland and Virginia
coasts 1t is frequently landed as far
up the Bay as the mouth of the Patux-
ent River.
The striped Chesapeake Bay mullet
is another fish of good food value
and has recently become one of the
most highly regarded. especially when
eaten soon after being captured.

are only a fairly good table fish, and
fish ranging from / to 2 pounds are
the best eating.
These fish are not particular as to
what kind of bait is offered. They
rise to hard or soft shell crabs, peeler
crabs. shrimp, bloodworms. garden
worms or cut spot. They even attack
cut fish of their own species. Some
anglers say they would rather eat
hardheads than sea trout or blue,
but in my opinion there is no COM
parison, the last two named being of
much better quality. However, there
is no accounting for taste.
During the hot Summer months the
big hsrdheads leave local waters to re-
turn later in the season, but they
usually leave millions of smaller fish
to continually worry the anglers by
taking their bats, some of them so
small they cannot take the hook into
their mouths. 1t seems safe to say
that the hardhead forms the backbone
of our fishing in nearby salt water.
At the start of the saltwater fish,
ing season, usually about the middle
of April or the first of May, local
anglers travel to Oregon Inlet, N. c.,
in quest of the channel bass. A
little later in the season this species
will be found in the lower part of the
bay from Point Lookout down to the
capes, and an occasional one landed
in the mouth of the Potomac River.
The channel bass is also known as
the red drum and is member of the
croaker family. 1t strikes ones bait
or lure with fury, makes three or four
comparatively short runs for such a
large fish, then quits. 1t is consid-
cred by many good table fish.
Many lines and rods are broken by
these big gamesters each year, which
probably is due principally to inferior
tackle, or trying to fight the fish in
stead of letting it play itself out be-
fore being brought alongside of the
boat to be gated.
There is one fish which visits Ches-
apeake Bay each year that does a
great amount of damage to oyster
beds. The fish is the black drum
often miscalled the red drum. A
school of these big black fish, weigh
ing IS pounds and more, have been
known to clean out an oyster bed in
one night. They are equipped with
two rows of big teeth and powerful
jaw with which they break the oyster
shell, extract it's contents. and expel
the shell. Schools of these fish are
easily heard by anglers when crunch
ing the oyster shells. They naturally
put up a good fight when hooked
quite as any other big fish, but their
food value Is decidedly poor. This

SelfTre0tn'ent Dangerous
For Acute Abdominal Pain

upon yourself or your friend or tho
druggist, but get a doctor. Unfor-
tunately, the great majority Of these
cases fall first into the hands OF the
amateur home medical adviser. and
the first treatment is carried out by
that person. More unfortunately stAl
the one treatment that the hons
medical adviser knows for acute
bellyache is a cathartic, and that 10
the one wrong thing to do.
It will be noticed in the set Of
symptoms that put down that I
said nothing about the condition Of
the bowles. In almost all Of these
conditions the bowels are constipated
ref1exly, but acute constipation is not
the cause of the trouble. When acute
bellyache is present with diarrhoea,
the patient usually is not in danger.
and comparatively can be safely left
to the hands of the home medical ada
wiser.
A cathartic always does harm In
real organic, acute abdominal dis
ease. For instance, in acute appen-
dicitis, it stirs up movements which
rupture the appendix, squirts pus
over the abdomen, and causes fatal
peritonitis
Let us hear the actual record Oe
experience taken from the report
1 just cited: "a third of the patients
with acute appendicitis had taken
some form of purgative before adj
mission to the hospital. Thirty-five
per cent of 353 cases of acute appen-
dicitis, in which history of having
taken purgative was obtained, showed
a perforated appendix. Often the
purgative was taken by the patient
before seeking medical help. Often
the story was given us by patient
that he went to the corner drug
store and was told by the druggist
that he had just the thing for the
gas on your stomach" The mortal

sively, causes an irregularity of tbs
heart, and makes the owner feel that
the heart is truning over, but it does
not result in any organic change
and the condition quiets down aa
soon as the tobacco is stopped or
leSsened.
Nobody is denying that real heart
disease does occur, but 80 per cent
of it is an accompaniment Of middle
or old age. either strikes so quickly
that the victim doesn't have time to
get scared, or causes mild disabil-
ity over a period Of years. and final
ly ushers the individual out of life so
gently and at such an age that even
he himself is quite prepared to go.
Since the saving in infant mortality,
and prevention Of infection of young
life, the preponderance of an elderly
and mlddle-aged population. with
which the social and economic re-
sources Of the world are entirely un-
fitted to cope, threatens to estop the
efforts Of medical science to find
more efficient treatment along this
line.
Watch Anatomical Changes
When the medical profession first
became expert in the recognition of
heart disease, which was about the
time Of the invention Of the stetho-
scope for listening to the heart
sounds, they became mostly inter-
ested in the anatomical changes in
the heart. 1t took them many
years Of watching patients go along
actively working without doing them
selves any harm to learn that ana
tomical changes in the heart are not
as serious as they sounded at first.
Then came the period Of interest
! in physiological changes. such things
I as blood pressure, and the changed
functions Of the heart muscle lead
ing to irregularities and conductivity
upsets. And these, too, when they
were first discovered, seemed much
more serious than they did when
time had given us some perspective
on the subject. There are all kinds
of blood pressure. just as there are
all kinds of everything else.
Nowadays, the functional capacity
of the heart is the best guide to prog
nosis. And there being no good
laboratory test for that, actual eX-
perience still remains our best test.
