Uncle Ruy's Corner

Recently I had dinner with my
friend, George w. Simpson, author
OF Uncommon knowledge" and
several other interesting books.
During the meal he told me some
thing about his boyhood.
when I was IA years old" he
said, "gophers had become a pest
in the region where lived. To keep
down their number, the Government
paid 10 cents apiece for each pair
of front paws.
with my rifle was able to shoot
quite a number of them. When
I turned in the paws, I received
$3.40 for my work, and I used the
money to buy set of Shakespeare
plays.
THE purchase had an influence
on my life. I read the plays one
after another. Since then I have
read some lines of Shakespeare
every day of the year. I have not
missed a single day with the ex-
ception OF three days when I was
unconscious during an Illness"
Mr.. Simpson has found the works
OF Shakespeare a lasting pleasure.
He has read every word of every
play, also the poems written by "the
bard OF Stratford-on- Avon" Many
OF the plays he has read dozens of
times, and he seems always to find
something new and worthwhile in
them.
Much of the work Of Shake
speare would have been lost" he
said, "if it had not been for the
work of two old men. They were
actors who had appeared on the
stage in the company which Shake
speare directed.
After the death of Shakespeare.
the old actors found that in his
will he had left them mourning
rings. These rings were to be worn
to show how much they missed their
friend.
THE actors got to talking about
the great days when they were act
ing in Wills plays. The plavs. they
decided, ought all to be printed.
THE plays were in manuscript
form in the Globe Theater. So tbs
old friends of Shakespeare went to
that theater and copied them off.
In this wav they gathered the text
of l8 or 20 plays which had not
been printed up to that time.
Those plays. together with others
which had been printed before, were
published in what is known as the
Folio of 1928 or the First Folio
The manuscript from which the
plays were copied was burned. or
otherwise destroyed, long ago. Yet
the plays were saved in the First
Folio, copy of which today has
value of $500O0."
The two old actors were John
Heminge and Henry Condell. We
may thank them for saving half OF
Shakespeare's work for modern eyes
to read.

STONE CATFISH
(Schilbeodes insignis).

Stone cats and mad toms are
cousins. All members of the species
have poison gland and the adnate
adipose fin. All Of them are small
fish, and they are to be found lurk-
ing among the weeds OF a stony
brook.
The fellow pictured here is often
seen in aquariums. If he is not
too large, he will behave we'll toward
his neighbors. But let him take
on length and girth, and he is as
pugnacious as he can be. He must
not be put in the company with
goldflshes. He spends his waking
moments nibbling at thisr long fins.
Naturally, this handicaps the victim,
and may result in its easy capture
by aggressive neighbors.
All catfish are able to take care

cats prefer animal food, of course,
