No Salmon In New Zuland.

The true salmon has never yet been sue.
oessfully doiiilcllcd in New Zculuiiil wa-
ters. Why not? Because, it is said, the
New zl‘llllllltl seas do so abound in vora-
cious flsh, liiiri'iicouta, sharks and the
like, that the column has no chance of to
turning uiidi-voiircd from ills-flrst visit to
the suit. Witll‘l‘. But. if trout can pass
through such an ordeal unscathed, why
cannot siiliiion? It is possible that the
trout do not venture to son so early as the
salmon, but only when they have attained
to yours of discretion and are able to take
care of tlieiiisi-lves.

There must be some reason, could (Jim
but discover it. A few yours ago there
was much talk of trying to solve tlilsproh-
lem lit New Zciiliiiid by on expcrliiiciit on
a grand scale-«to wit, by turning down a
column salmon frynt once into an un-
stocked river and awaiting results.
Whether this plan has been put in pl‘lw-
tlce or active are unable to say. The plan
would he llillll‘L‘SllnlI‘VDUIlgil expensive,
and should lead to some decisive conclu.

But whatever the film of the true salm-
on, it Hl‘llllls to be [)1'!SSlbll!—-llll)', likely——
that the English trout in New Zealund
may develop, so to speak, salinonhood of
their owri.—Mucmlllnii‘s Magazine.

 

A Remedy For Bound Shoulders.
Anybody can cure round shoulders
by a very simple system of exercise.
The round shouldered man should
go into the optm. llll‘ three or four
times ii day, let his hands drop to his
sides, and then, while inhaling fresh
air. raise himself on his toes as high
ashooan. The filling of the lungs
pushes the shoulders back to their
normal position, and if the practice
is steadily followed for a couple of
months the worst pair of stoop shoul-
ders in time will become as straight
as it drill sergeant‘s.-Philadelphia
