We speak not now of the trumpeter of Tasmania nor of the blue cod of New Zealand, about which the inhabitants of these colonies are not unnaturally proud. Judging by his shape, the schnapper is an ugly fish. His cvior is good, but his proportions are not fair ag he lies on the slab of the fishmonger. In your first introduction to a ten pound schnapper on the end of your line he strikes you as an interesting acquaintance of whom you would like to know more. On your subsequent intimacy at table you for- get much of his unsightliness. He is, how- ever, gibbous and unsymmetrical, having astrange lump on his head, which gives him a startled appearance. This fish is al- ways caught with rod and line, and the manner of his taking is peculiar. | The home of the schnapper is in the deep sea, generally a considerable distance from the shore and in the immediate neighborhood of a shelving reef. Good schnapper fishing may, however, be had from the rocks of the mainland or an is- iand. Every holiday in Sydney there are hundreds who go forth to fish for schnap- pers. For this purpose it is usual to club funds and charter asmall steamer. By this means the expense is lessened, while the party is made more enjoyable. The bait is usually the flesh of mullet or other fish cut up.—Chambers’ Journal.

The woman who bends her back over a sew- ing machine for many hours each day needs to be strong and healthy in every way, or she is courting death. When her work comes hard, and makes ker nervous, fretful and despondent, and she has “stitches in the side,’’ pains in the back or abdomen, and headaches, she may be certain that some- thing is radically wrong. A local doctoy, with a limited field of ob- servation and experience, will probably say that the fault is in the stomach, liver or heart. Generally he is wrong. The fault is probably in the delicate and important organs that really constitute womanhood. They are weak or diseased. if sitch is the case, only a doctor of known reputation and wide experience should be consulted. A letter to Dr. R. V. Pierce, for thirty years chief consulting physician to the Invalids’ Hotel and Surgicai Institute, at Buffalo, N. Y., will secure the free advice of prob- ably the most eminent specialist in these diseases in the world. Dr. Pierce’s Favor- ite Prescription has been used with success by tens of thousands of invalid women. Over 90,000 have acknowledged its merits over their signatures. It promptly cures all weakness and disease of the organs dis- tinctly feminine. All medicine dealers. “TI have been a great sufferer from female dis- eases,”’ writes Mrs. C. C. Clark, of New Kome, Floyd Co., Ga. ‘‘I was confined to my bed three years, snd not able to sit in my chair but very little. £ got one of your pamphlets and read it and sent and got three bottles of Dr. Pierce's Fa- vorite Prescription. I took the medicine and re- ceived so much benefit from those three bottles that I was induced to take more. I therefore sent and got nine bottles. I took them and they compitetely cured me.” Dr. Pierce’s Pleasant Pellets cure bil- iousness and constipation. One a dose Thev never gripe.

Into the ground floor office of a maga- zine noted for the red tapery of its methods rushed a woman. In looks, bearing and clothes she was the typical literary crank, and walking up to the rail especially de- signed to head off such as she she said, “I want to know whether your magazine wil! print this for me right away.”’ **This”’ was a bundle of manuscript which, how- ever it may have looked in those faroff days when the woman first began hawking it about, was now tattered and grimy. It was rolled. ‘*‘We don’t—er—-we don’t con- sider manuscripts down here,” said the young man behind the rail. ** You'll have to take it up stairs.’’ ‘‘ Up stairs,’’ repeat- ed the woman. ‘‘How far up?’’ “Gh, only four flights,’’ said the mar. ‘‘No, there is no elevator. I’m sorry, madam, but even our editor in chief uses the stairs.”’ The woman glanced at the stairs. ‘‘ Four flizghts counting this cne?’’ she asked. ‘‘Counting this one,’ said the man. ‘'That’s too much,”’ said the woman. ‘‘! don’t care if all the editors ia creation climb them, I shan’t.’’ And she turned to go when something caught her eye and back she came. ‘‘Look here,’’ she said, “isn’t that a speaking tube over in the corner?’ The man admitted that it was. “Why can’t you call up through it and ask them .f they will print my manu- seript?’’ The man explained that the manuscript would have to be read first. “‘Well,’’ went on the woman, *“‘why can’t you read it to them through the tube. Then they can tell right off and it’ll save me climbing those stairs.’’ plained *‘some more,’’ but, although he did his best, it wes in vain. Before he was half through the woman, manuscript in band, had flounced out of the door with, “And some folks wonder why literature is degenerating.’’—New York =un. -_ Two Failures.

An Arrogant Father Humbled by His Twelve-year-old Son. “Tt is an everlasting and incontroverti- bie fact,’’ remarked the undersized man, “that pride goes before a fall. I used to have some doubts on the subject, but they have all been swept away by the events of this afterncon,’’ “Tt was a sudden conversion?” ‘Yes, but it was acomplete one. I am not in the habit of gloating over the mis- fortunes of others, but I must confess that a great wave of satisfaction went over me when I saw the proud structure of self esteem which Loftins has been rearing all these years totter and tumble to the dust.’’ ‘*Has he met with difficulty?” “Yes. And it did me good to see the way he got red in the face and then turned pale when he realized his position. ‘Me has a haughty manner. You see, he is w self made man, and, as a conse- quence, takes especial pride in his success. Keverses cannot fail to go hard with him.” ‘This one did.”’ **You were with him when the blow fell, and instead of sympathizing with him you turn around and exult in his misery.”’ “Well, if you want to put it in that kind of language, it’s what I’m doing. He had been talking loud and had half succeeded in convincing me that I didn’t know much, and that what I did know wasn’t of any account. He had been lay- ing down the law on every question that came up for conversation and showing me where all the theories I had ever formed atout anything from politics to boiling an egg were totally wrong. Then came the erash, the awful instant in which what seemed to be a tower of strength proved ag flimsy and perishable as the decoration on & wedding cake.”’ ‘The blow came in the shape of a tele- gram?’’ ‘‘No. It was delivered by oneof his own family. He had just settled back in his chair, with his thumbs in the armholes of his vest, to enjoy my silent embarrass- ment, when his 12-year-old son came inte the room with a lot of things he wanted his father to tell him about the siege of Troy, the battle of Thermopylz# and how to extract the cube root. ’’—Washington Star.
