Where the Queer ( tivated to He Milked, Does any one know that cuttlefish are cultivated on farms to be milked? FARMS, | the coasts of Great Britain, cuttlefish are kept in tanks or ponds to be milked of thelr ink. The pond or tank Is connected with the sea by a pipe, and a thousand or more cuttles are kept in a single one, They form a mest curious sight as they move about, trailing their long arms and staring out of their bulging eyes, They are guarded by screens which prevent them from being scared, for If they are suddenly frightened they will squirt their milk Into the water, and it would therefore be lost. This fluld or milk is very valuable, and a cuttle will yield about $3 worth a yeap. It 1s secreted in a bag which can be opened and closed at will, the cuttle ejecting the fluld to darken the water so that It may escape unseen when attacked. The best cuttlefish are procured in China, where for some reason or other they produce the best quality of milk, When the farmer considers it oppor tune to milk the cutties he proceeds by opening the slulces of the pond and gently agitating the water. The cut- tles then swim around the pond, and as soon as one passes through the sluice is closed. The cuttle passes down a small channel into a basin or metal receptacle, and as soon as it is securely there the water is drained off, It is then frightened and at once squirts the fluid from the bag. When it 1s exhausted it is lifted out, the milk is collected and the basin prepared for another. MODERN CIVILIZATION. its Complexity, Hurry and Worry Shortening Our Lives. Nat long ago while traveling I chane- ed to stop at a village on the river Rhine, where I found an astonishing number of old people. There were a dozen over a hundred years of age and many from eighty years old up to the century mark, yet straight and vigor- ous. One woman nearly a hundred years old was earning her living by picking hops. Her grandchildren were middie aged. It was quite wonderful But there was no mystery about it. It was merely the effect of a simple life spent largely in the fields, with plain diet, consisting of a few vegetables and fruits, little meat, and native beer and wine for beverages, Nothing ean be more obvious than that the vary complexity of our mod- ern civilization is shortening our lives. But of all the evils that afilict us the worst and most destructive are hurry and worry. Hurry drives the body ma- chine beyond its capacity, while worry racks it inwardly. Of the two worry is probably the worse. This might in- deed be called the age of worry. Be- cause of the intense nervous strain to which we are subjected we do vastly more worrying than did our forbears. The average man of today is continual- ly surrounded and pursued by phantom troubles, which, though few of them ever materialize roalities, haunt him continually, rulniog his peace of mind and Injuring his heaith.— Reader Magazine. 1 tr into Getting Married. 1 don't know myself what married feels Illke, but It much more exciting than watching other people getting married.

From Le Galllenne's “His Quest of the Golden Girl" The Name “Fife” The origin of the name Fife is not known. One historian tries to show that It comes from the Celtic word veach, a Pict, and means that the dis- trict was inhabited by Picts, but that is obviously absurd, as Fife was not ish nations.
