ON THE GRAND BANKS, Hew and Cod and Halibut Are Taken by the Bmall Vessels, Gustav Kobbe writes an article en Htled “On the Grand Banks and Else where” for St. Nicholas. Mr, Kobbe mys: The trawlers are generally found on the Grand Banks, the hand-liners on the Western Bank and Quiro, These nand-liners are smaller vessels with ewer dories, and the men fish with nand-lines, one man and two lines to t@ dory. The hand-liner sits in the middle of his dory, with a compart- ment In its stern, another in its bow, for his catch. When you see the bow sticking far up in the air, you know the fisherman has his stern-load. Then, as fish after fish flashes into the other mpartment, the bow settles, and when the dory 1s on an even keel the nand-liner pulls back to the vessel. The trawlers bait with fresh ring, mackerel, and squid: the hand iiners with clams, The cateh of both is split and salted, and the vessel has a full “fare” bas “wet her salt,” that is, u ber salt—and is full of fish ler's voyage lasts about el hand-liner's, eleven.

Company has come, Christ stands outside the door and, of eonirse, thers isn good deal of excitement inside the door. The disarranged furniture js hastily put aside, and the hair is brushed back and the dresses are adjusted as well as, in so short a time, Mary and Martha can attend to these matters, They did not keep Christ standing at the door until they had elaborately arranged their tresses, then Cares of the care that nad 1 dike serve gl jOomeate the though they had not heard previous knoockings, that you?’ No. They were ladies, and Were always presentable, although they may not have always had on their best, for non of cs always has on onr best: if wo did, our best would not be worth having on. They throw open the door and greet Christ, hey say: “Good morning, Mas- ter: come in and be seated.” Christ did not eome alone; Ho had a group of friends with Him, and such an influx of eity visi. tors would throw any country home into rturbation. I suppose also the walk rom the city had been a good appetizer. The kitchen department that day was a tery important department, and I suppose that Martha had no sooner greeted the guests than she fled to that room. Mary had no worriment about Lousehold affairs, Bhe had full confidence that Martha could get up the best dinner in Bethany. She leema to aa: “Now, let us havo a division sf labor, artha, you cook, and I'll sit down and be good.” 86 you have often soon a great difference between two sis ors, There is Martha, hard-working, aking, a good manager, mg new pastry, or overing something the art of cookery and houskeeping. ere is Mary, also fond of conversation fterary, so engaged in deep questions of the two or three saying: “Why, is ne over inventive of ethics she has no time to attend to the Mary {8 in the parlor with Ohrist.
