An Easy leuon In tlie.Pronnnctatiun of
Difficult Word*—An Interesting De
scription of Fishes Which gl’ofiseas the
Power of FJytaig Through the Afr.
Bomo fishes have pectoral fins, as those
upon the chest are termed, so largo that by
means of them they ere sustained in wliatap*
pears a short flight through the air, and to
such the name of flying fish has been given.
Whether these fishes really use their fins as
Wings is a question not yet decided. Some
observers maintain that they do, though only
for so long a time, of course, as the fins re
main moist. Many authorities, in natural
history are, however, of opinion that the
wings simply act like a parachute or kite,
sustaining the fish after it has leaped into the
air.
There are more than thirty distinct species
of flying fish. Two species have been occa
sionally seen off the British coast, one is com
mon in the Mediterranean sea, ami five have
been found along our own shores; but in
general they are most abundant in the warmer
aters of the tropics.
The accompanying cut represents a species
of this interesting fish.
A flight of flying fish forms one of the most
pleasant of the strange spectacles that from
time to time enliven the tedium of a voyage
through tropical seas. The fish swim in
shoals of a dozen to a hundred or more, and
whole shoals often leave the water, darting
in the some direction through the air and,
after descending Into the water at a distance
of 200 yards or more from the place where
they rose, quickly renewing their flight
Sometimes the dolphin pursues them, taking
great leaps out of the water and gaining upon
his prey, which take shorter and shorter
flights until at last they sink exhaust*
Sometimes the larger sea birds catch flyirtg
fishes while they are in the air. It does not

seem to be true that these fishes leave the
water merely to escape from danger, as La
sometimes supposed, but they appear, rather,
to efbrcise their powers, like other creatures,

them and from the exuberance of their
happiness.

Magic Money.
To make money disappear docs not seem ,t
nil difficult, and neitber Is it when you go*In
for spending, or. .to settle old debts -always
supposing you have any to settle. But this
way of getting rid of money Is not magic.
The following trick will be of interest to
our juvenile readers and, although purely
sleight of band, requires but little practice to
performtlt with dexterity: Take a ten cent
piece between the thumb and forefinger
of the right hand; then, by a rapid twist of
the fingers, twirl the coin by the same motion
that you would use to spin a top, at the same
time rapidly, das, your hand and the coin
will dUoppcar up your coat sleeve; you can
now open yqur hand, and, much to the as-
f Jonlibmputof-f^^-yKee**, the coin will
This capital and harmless trick may be
—*Td in a hundred different way. One
plan is to take three nickel pieces and
rellng one In the palm ol the left band,
place the other two, one . each between the
thumb and forefinger of each hand, then give
a the coin fti the right hand the twirl already
described, and closing, both hands quickly,'
the coin In the right hand will disappear up
your slsgve and tbo left hand, on being un
rinsed, will be found to cdntaln two" nickels,
while tho one that was In the right hand will
have disappeared. Thus you will appear to
the surprised spectators to have conjured the
coin from the right hand Into tho left.

It It only recently tfat science has come to
understand folly tho service which the earth

American boyi coll the “angle worm,” and
others the “mud worm”—performs in tbs

An(End To Bono Scraping
Edward Shepherd, of Harrisburg, III,
says: “Having received so much benefit
from Electric Bitters, I feel it my duty to
let suffering humanity know it. Have
bad a running sore on my leg for eight
years; my doctors told me I would have
to have the bone scraped or leg amputated.
I used, instead, three bottles of Electric
Bitters and seven boxes Bucklen’s Arnica
Salve, and my log is now’ sound and well.”
