That etiquette is observed amon« the fishermen that journey to the fish ing li.-nks \v:is discovered by an ama teur angler on his first trip. The amateur hooked a codfish, but his line parted just as the fish was above the water. Hack fell the cod fish, carrying with him two sinkers and the hook. Twenty minutes later another angler cried out that he had captured a cod with two sinkers and a hook. The amateur went up to the angler, who appeared to be an old salt, and asked for his hook and sinkers, which had his name stamped on them. He was surprised when the old salt told him to take the fish also. According to the rules generally fol lowed 011 the fishing boats, the second angler was entitled to the fish, but the hooks and sinkers should be returned to their owner. The old angler ex plained why ho wanted to give up the fish. It seems that he had followed the sea a great part of his life. When a young man he was a whaler, and, ac cording to whaling law, a dead whale belongs to the ship whose name ap pears on the harpoon that killed tt. Therefore the old salt figured that the amateur owned the .codfish he had taken.—New York Sun. Euler's Wonderful Memory. Leonhard Euler, who was born in 1707 and died In 1783 at St. Peters burg, where he spent his life as a teacher of great power and as a pro lific writer, was an Instance of the genuine mathematician endowed with almost superhuman powers. He left more than 200 manuscript treatises on his favorite subject, and the bulk of the works published by his academy between 1727 and 1783 were from his pen. In his old age he was totally blind. Then he carried in his memory a table of the first six powers of the "series of natural numbers up to 100." It is related that on one occasion two of Euler's students attempted to calculate a converging series. As they advanced they found they disagreed in the result by a unit in the fifteenth figure. The question was referred to Euler, who decided to make the calcu lation. lie did this mentally, and his result was found to be correct.—New York Tribune. The Codmoppe. Herrings are still eaten as much as In the days when Yarmouth had to send a hundred yearly to the king, baked in four and twenty pasties. But where is the codmoppe gone, and what was it like when kings dined off it in Lent? "Codmoppe sauce Hollandalse" would sound most Intriguing on a Sa voy menu. More original still would be the "rostid perpes" of a Henry V. banquet, which was the "sea swine" of the unrefined Saxon, the "porco ma rino" of the mediaeval ecclesiast. A maister coke gives an early receipt for "puddyng of purpasse," another teaches how to "salte porpyesse and seele," another how to "undertraunche that purpos." From which It may be seen that enterprise extended also to the spelling of the porpoise.—London Chronicle. Candymakers' Tricks. An Atchison man went into a candy factory. He was surprised to see one of the candymakers reach with his bare hand into a pot of boiling candy, lie brought out a handful of the boil ing fluid. He was testing its consist ency.

BY DAMON HARVEY. Wherever comrades may repose, free from the bugle's call, As heroes, they in mem'ry live, torn, .scar'd by steel and ball; There let us meet and mingle tears in unison to-day, And scatter floral wreaths, alike, upon the blue and gray. The few remaining "Vets," with pride and tumbling, tottering tread All Join to decorate the graves of our heroic dead. The breach of peacejthat once prevailed, from age, has died away, The tears of love are shed the same upon the blue and gray. With din of battle on their ear, the scenes of war in mind, Our brave defenders, aged, gray, are dropping out of line. E're long the "taps," will call the last true Soldier Boy away, Who may have worn the Northern blue—per haps the Southern gray. No slab of granite mark the spot where many warriors rest; No loving hands with garlands fair to lay upon their breast; But yet the stars that guard each mound of con secrated clay, .Smile down with equal rays of love on both the blue and gray. They laid their guns and swords aside with many a manly shout; From earthly service, one by one, were gently mustered out. And as the flowers of May adorn their silent graves to-day, Our Nation clasps the hands of peace o'er both the blue and gray. N. B.—lf the reader of the above "Poem," will send five 2-cent stamps to the author, Damon Harvey, Clear field, Pa., who is a helpless invalid, he will greatly appreciate the favor and will send in return, bis photo and the poem, nicely printed on plate paper, suitable for scrap book or framing. An editor recently wrote a "puff 1 " for the belle of the ball saying; "Her dainty feet were encased in shoes that might have been taken for fairy boots," but the blundering compositor made it read: "Her dirty feet were encased in shoes that might have been taken for. ferry-boats."
