HE EARNED HIS SALARY.
The Man On the Job Understood His
Business Right Thoroughly.
At a time when the public were
hearing a great deal of new “indus-
trial combinations” one of the newly
arrived captains of industry found
himself in a Western city in extreme
need of communicating with the New
York end of his enterprise.
He had almost completed an ar-
rangement for the consolidation of a
number of Western enterprises, but
In order to obtain final authority he
needed from New York it became
necessary to explain, by wire to his
partners, all he had done in the West.
The situation permitted of no de-
lay, such as would ensue should he
write, and to make matters worse he
bad no cipher code. For some time
the financier racked his brains to
evolve method whereby he
might communicate his information
to his associates in New York, but
in such manner that it would be
meaningless to any one else. He
could, however, think of no such
method, and at last was forced to
the conclusion that he must take the
| chance of sending the message in
plain English. According he draw
up the message and gave it to his
confidential man to send.
About half an hour later, when the
confidential man came in, he was
{ asked whether lie had forwarded the
| wire,
| “Yes, sir,” said the man: “but not
| exactly in the way vou proposed. I
rewrote it, the first word on one com-
pany’s blank, the second word on an-
other company’s blank, and so on.
In that way I sent half the message
By eack company, neither half, of
gourse, meaning anything to one not
fn the secret. Then I sent a second
wire by one company reading:
* ‘Read messages together,
gating words.” ”
Not long afterward the confidential
man was receiving a larger salary.

CURIOUS JAPANESE FISH.
One That Uses Fin as Sall—How the
Dorado Is Caught.
One of the most interesting of fish
of Japanese waters is the Oriental
gail fish (Histiophorous orientalis).
$he generic name, given by Dr. Gun-
ther, means the sail bearer and re-
| gers to the huge dorsal fin possessed
| by the species.
The fin stands higher than the body
gbove it and is used as a sail before
the wind. It is a large flsh ten feet
| In length and weighing 164 pounds.
{ They swim about usually in pairs in
| ough and windy weather with the
| buge fins above the water.
It is a favorite food fish and the an-
| pual catch is nearly 2,000,000 pounds
The sail fish is caught by means of
| ® harpoon.
Another food fish known as a dol-
{ phin or dorado is simetimes caught
fn a curious way. The fishes congre-
gate under a decoy bush and raft
made of bamboos, and are then
caught by hooks baited with squids.
| Or the decoy bush is surrounded by
| & seine net and the dolphins are driv-
en by beating the surface of the wa-
ter with sticks. This fish is eaten
both fresh and salt and is as great
a favorite In western Japan as the
| salmon is in the Northeast.

The Sea.
We should think of the sea with
pespect, for it has played an im-
portant part, first and last. Probably
pothing else in the world, merely by
being swept over, in vain, by ten
thousand fleets, could have got Byron
#0 excited. Moreover, it has been, in
all ages, a convenience to go down
© % in ships; while but for it there
| would be no marines to tell certain
i things to. The sea is the prior fact
© sea power in history, something
| elosely implicated with destiny and
| patriotism, and where a man doesn’t
$ust care to take arms against a sea
| of trouble, there are always (except
! fa Maine, Georgia and certain coun-
ties of Ohio) half-seas which he may
| become over. And finally, by ocoupy-
| ing three-fourths of the earth’s sur

‘chased For As Low As $15.
One of the most popular modes of
locomotion in Bangkok is the bicycle.
The city covers a vary large area,
the public offices are far from the
residential portion of the town and
the roads are excellent. The cus-
toms report for the fiscal year ended
March 31, 1910, shows that 708 ma-
chines were imported during that
year, an increase of 240 over the
previous year, amounting to $18,613,
an average of $26 a bicycle. Ma-
chines may be bought locally from
| $16 upward, the English makes rang-
ing from about $30 to about $76.
Parts of bicycles were imported dur-
ing the last fiscal year amounting to
| $2,940. Of all the bieyeles imported
