Do Fishes Talk? A naturalist has been making some investigations in the fish ponds at Guilford, with regard to the much de bated question as to whether fish can communicate a notion of their expe riences to other fishes. The experi- menter, when he had caught a trout, threw it back alive into the pond. Then he put in a freshly baited hook, and only two or three trout came after it. By experimenting in another pond, equally well. stocked, and not throwing back any fish, Mr. Field found that he could catch trout with out any trouble. This seems to show that captured fishes, when released, may communicate their sufferings to their neighbors in the poud. The Gramophone. The gramophone, a talking machine, much simpler and cheaper than the phonograph, invented by Dr. Berliner, the famous electrician, will soon be put upon the market. Its record of human speech and of music, it is said, are indestructible, and can be cheaply multiplied to an indefinite extent by simple mechanical means. What it has to say or sing can be heard all over an ordinary-sized house. So devoid of complexity is its construction that the complete apparatus will cost only $18, and a smaller edition intended for the use of children will be sold for $5.

A LITTLE SURPRISE, , ..Forty-two, HAD been married just a twelvemonth and, as I believed, I had got the very dearest little wo man in the world for my wife. The year just concluded had in consequence been the happiest of my existence, and I resolved to make my partner a little present in remembrance of the event which had made us one for life. As I knew how much more delightful a gift becomes when it is unexpected, I said nothing to my wife of my in-, tentions, wishing to take her quite by surprise. The accompanying narra tive will, I think, show how complete ly I succeeded in that endeavor. My business lay in the city, whither it was my custom to travel every morning from the quiet of a little suburban residence, returning home in time for a cozy dinner in the early evening. It was my invariable prac tice to carry with me a small Glad stone bag, and on the day in question, after placing into this, along with a few other things f Jjnr^ftrticles I had JtHcFDiepurposenaineH^ n.nd which consisted of a gold bangle, a pendant for the neck with ruby star attached, and a small diamond brooch, I took train at Cannon street in the very lightest of spirits on my journey home. Seating myself in the corner of the first-class carriage in which I rode, with my bag in hand, I was for a time the only occupant of tho compart ment, but as tho train was on the point of starting I was joined by a person of very gentlemanly exterior, faultlessly dressed, who stepped into the carriage with an air of some con cern. Like myself, he carried a bag —a circumstance not at all striking in itself, but noticeable on this occasion by the solicitude which it seemed to cause its owner, who orating himself ohUo to ***, firBt PKj; the thing er the seat, then by is siilc, uuvl aally elected to carry it as I was do- mlne. It was not long before we wore in conversation. The season of the year was late summer, and the subject naturally suggesting itself was that of holiday-making. My companion had evidently traveled a great deal, for he discoursed fluently of journey- ings on the Cuniia«*ot. comprising ad ventures in the Alps, trips the Bhine, and excursions into Italy. He told of the beauties of the Hiviera, the delights of Baden, and the glories of Berlin, and waxed enthusiastic over the charms of Continental women, tho fair girls of France, and the dark beauties of Italy. “But alter all, there are no women like the English,” concluded my com panion, more quietly; “they may lag behind tho Continental girls in the matter of personal beauty, but depend upon it they make up for it in all other qualities.” This was quite in accordance with my tastes, for my little wife at home was, I am proud to say, an English girl, and fully bore out his estimate. I warmed to my companion at once on his saying this, and it was not long before 1 had informed him a good deal about my private life ; drawing a glowing picture of my country home, and the little genius who, like an angel, presided over it. He appeared so interested that I even went a step farther in the lightness of my heart and told him not only that this was the anniversary of my wedding day, but that I was intending to surprise my wife on my return home with a little unexpected present. In ex change for this frankness my compan ion also became confidential. “You hardly think,” he said, speak ing in a low voice as he leaned over toward me, “that this bag which I hold in my hand contains jewelry worth close on £10,000, would you? Ah, yon look surprised ! And yet it weighs but very little. Try it!” I placed my own bag on tho seat beside me in order to take the one be offered me. “Jewels are not necessarily heavy articles,” I said, balancing the bag critically, which seemed no heavier than my own. “But,” I added, smil ing, while a flutter passed through my frame at holding it in my hands so much wealth, “it is none too wise to trust a stranger with so precious an article as this, is it?” “Oh, I have no fear of you,” he replied, with charming candor. “I think I know a rogue when I sec one. In my line of business I have occasion to mix with all sorts of people, and nearly a lifetime of experience has given mo a sufficient insight into the characters of men to be able almost to judge them nt a glance.” Wondering who my companion could be, but convinced in my own mind that he was some one of impor tance, and flattered somewhat by his confidence, I handed him back the bag, which he placed on the seat be- bide mine, and immediately started an other run of entertaining conversa tion. Considerably to my regret, tiiis was interrupted ay the train pull ing up at a station. “Ah, here is my destination,” said the stranger, rising at once and taking up his bag. “Good afternoon! I hop© you will allow me to wish you many happy returns of the day !” In another moment he was gone, and I felt quite sorry to lose the com panionship cf so interesting a fellow- traveler. Friendships are often formed at first.sight, and had this man re mained in my company much longer, I felt convinced it would have resulted in my contracting a new one. How delightful it would have been, I thought, to ask him to make one of our little dinner-party that evening. What a charm would hrs interesting conversation prove to my wife, whose knowledge of the world, like my own, was unfortunately not based on a very extensive personal experience. With an indistinct intention of acting upon this half-formed idea, I rose from iny seat and peered through tho carriage door, but the man had gone out of sight, and I eat down again with a feeling akin to disappointment. In ten more minntes, however, I was at my own stopping-place, with my thoughts and steps both homeward turned. The brightness of the even ing and the lightness of my heart made my step quicker and more elastic than usual. “My dear,” I said, gayly, to my wife, when I reached home, “you know what to-day is?” “Our wedding-day,” was her quick response. “Yes,” I said, returning her ki&>; “and I’ve got a little surprise for you in the shape of a small present to mark the day.” I knew it would be welcome news. “You dear creature, how kind of you!” exclaimed my wife, simply clapping her hands in delighted ex citement, “I am so inquisitive al- | ready. Tell me, what is it?” “See for yourself,” I said, handing i her tho bag and ray bunch of keys at j the same time. “Unlock tho^bag and ! see what it contains.” It was a happy moment. I stood a little apart to watch the expression of her face as she picked out the key and pressed it into the lock, and if ever I felt proud of my action of my own, I did then. I would have gone miles for such an effect; and although I knew that in the purchase of these trinkets I had made a big hole in my none too large banking account, j felt that I was more than justified in incurring the expense. “What are you waiting for?” I asked, presently, as my wife seemed a long time turning the key. can’t move it!” she replied, af ter several futile attempts to fit the key into the lock. “Give it to me!” I said, and took f Remedial Foods. bunch and bag from her.

Gov’t Report ABSOLUTELY PURE A Good Law. have it at once, value "by wait open under tho burst the onoe proceeded firmly in both The New York law in regard to the maintenance of secrecy by telephone employes as to messages passing over the wires went into effect September 1st. It requires the staff of telephone companies to be as secretive regarding the nature of their business as are the operatives who handle telegraphic messages. A person who either wrongfully obtains or attempts to ob tain any knowledge of a telegraphic or telephonic message by connivance with a clerk, operator, messenger or other employe of a telegraph or telephone company, or, being such operator or other employe wilfully divulges to anyoue but the person for whom it was intended the contents or the nature of a telegraphic or telephonic message in trusted to him for transmission or de livery, or of which contents he may in any way have become possessed, is punished by a fine of $1,000 or six months’ imprisonment, or both. The same penalty attaches to neglect or refusal to transmit or deliver messages, except when they are intended for ille gal purposes. Long distance telephone lines are being so rapidly extended and the substitution of the telephonic for the telegraphic message that such an excellent protection ns rfle New Y'ork law provides should be univer sally provided. The telephone com panies would do wisely in promoting the adoption of such law in every state where their lines extend. Economy. It is a duty to be economical. At the great feeding of the 5,000 from bread, miraculously furnished, the Christ commanded that all the frag ments be saved. He was more careful than many a servant who will throw away slices of good bread and many a slatternly housekeeper who will let bread mould, rather than take care of it, although, the household provider may be breaking his back and heart in trying to keep the wolf from tho door; but the Lord of all who could produce bread by the ton with a prayer, saved alWhe pieces. Economy is a duty, a very important duty; it should be taught to all and be practiced by all. —'Womankind.

My railway com panion had evidently taken my bag in mistake for his own, and J, of course, had got his. It was au uufortuuata error, anyhow, and might take days to rectify. « Of course, I had to tell my wife all about my companion of the railway carriage, in order that she might un derstand how the mistake occurred, and as I recounted to her what I could at the moment remember of the con versation which had so fascinated me and won my attachment to the enter taining stranger, my wife’s face lit up with unwonted interest, and I more than ever regretted not carrying out my half-formed intention of asking him home. As I spoke I recollected about the jewels, and wondered what the owner's feelings would bo ou discovering his loss. The awkward part of the affair was that, although I had told the gentleman a good deal of my private affairs, I had not disclosed to him either my name or address, nor ha 1 he imparted his to me, therefore the idea of direct communication could not be entertained. What would bo best to do I hardly knew. My wife’s womanly interest in tho i jewels was naturally great, and ns my ] curiosity was also considerably | aroused, we decided that we would j empty the bag in order to have a look at them. We began to do so at once. At the top was a quantity of paper, which we carefully removed and un folded, fearful lest a valuable diamond should roll out unheeded. Nothing of this kind, however, occurred, and we went on eagerly searching until, right at the bottom of the bag, we came upon the valuables. They con sisted of a small hand chisel, a coil of stout rope, several skeleton keys and a box of silent matciies. I will not attempt to describe my feelings. It was quite unnecessary to tell me that I had been nicely robbed, and that my entertaining fellow- traveler was a beastly fraud, and his £10,000 worth of jewelry a detestable myth. I am afraid I looked as small as I felt. My wye could not resist a smile at my dejected appearance. “This is indeed a surprise,” she said, trying to put a cheerful aspect on the "affair. “But never mind, dearest,” she added, kindly, “try to forget all about it, and 1 will promise not to be disappointed.

From ihe Register, Xexo Haven, Conn. In this rapid ago of ours when so many men and women are old at fifty, one who has lived throe-quarters of a century, and then, after debility and suffering, regains health and vigor, must be regarded with a feeling akin to wonder. A New England lady has been found who has had this re markable experience. In tho family of Clarence Williams, a Che shire farmer on the Meriden road, Cheshire, Ct., lives Miss Cornelia Cornwall, a lady seventy-three years of age. For several years Miss Cornwall’s heallh has been de clining very rapidly, caused by a general de- bi lity. Her friends feared that tho respected lady had not long to live; but a kind Provi dence directed the aged lady, and in a news paper advertisement Miss' Cornwall read about Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills—a few boxes of which she procured at once, and with the result that is best told in her own words. ‘‘About six years ago,'’ Miss Cornwall be gan, “my health commence 1 to fail. I suf ferod from loss of appetite and pains in dif ferent parts of my body. Mv eondftion gradually grew worse uutil my limbs were apparently unable to bear my weight, and I could no longer go up stairs without the as sistance of some one. “I consulted phys'cians_ who_ proscribed medicines for my blood. These I continued . I to lake for several months, but without any effect. Tho sense of feeling in mv lower limbs seemed to be leaving me, and I began to fear that it was hopeless to look for a cure. I was still suffering terribly from the pains through my body, when I chanced to read the story of a cure thit had been effected with the use of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills for Pn'e People. I discovered that the town druggist here had none on sale, so I sent immediately to the headquarters in Schenec tady. N. Y., and secure l two of the boxes of the pills. ‘•Last December I commenced using the pills regularly, and a month after I had been taking them, I felt greatly benefited by their use. The feeling in my limbs came back again, and in two months I was able to go about the house as I had been ae,oustomed to a year before. Now, as you can see. I am enjoying good health. The pallor in my face was removed by the pills. A number of iny friends in the neighborhood were com plaining of symptoms somewhat similar to mv own, and I recommended that they take Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills. They did so, au t they tell me that they have been very much benefited bv their use. i still continue to take the pills, though there is not so much necessity for them at present. As a purifier of the blood, 1 consider the Dr. Williams’ Pink fills a wonderful me iieine.” Pink Pills are sold by all dealers, or will be sent post paid on receipt of price, (50 cent- a box or six boxes for §2.5C —they are never sold in bulk, or by the 100; t v addressing Dr. Williams’ Medicine Co., Schenectady, N.
