The caviare is averted to Europe*
and only the inferior grades find their
way back to this country, the best, of
11 heaig liept for European. epicures.
The getteral and greatly increased fa-
vor with which caviare is received
has caused a great drain upon the
sturgeon fisheries Europe, and
those of Console, aud the United
States NINO 1.)Q011 ettlied upon to meet
the demand.
The Lake of the Woods has a total
area of 6,000 square miles and 'its
waters abound with Oslo the most
important of which is the sturgeon.
They are caught mainly for the ea -
\lore, though there is a profit in
=eking the Meat. Atter the !Isla is
killed. it is carefully cleaned and the
caviare set aside in tanks. It is
then taken and washed repeatedly un-
til it is thoroughly cleansed, after
which IL is rubbed by hand through
a series of screens until the eggs are
separated. It is then packed in kegs
with salt and kept In cold storage
until time of shipment. It is an ex-
tremely simple process, requiring but
little manipulation. In EurOpe the
kegs are opened and the caviare sort-
ed out. accorditig to quality. It -is
then put up ia small lead packages
and tins and put on the market as
Russian caviare. The best grades
find a ready Sale at highest prices,
but the inferior grade comes back to
America.
. The price paid for caviare has been
steadily increasing each year. In
1808 it was sold at 60 and. 70 cents
a pound, and this year there is a
small increase. Five years ago the
price was only 35 cents a pound.
The caviare were then double the val-
ue nf the sturgeon, and as the fish
brings to the fishermen about two
cents more than the ordinary scale
hsh, its value to the inhabitants of
the lake section of Algoma cannot
be overestimated- It is, in fact the
most Important factor in the pros-
perity of the district. In 1.808 the
Lake of .the‘ Woods produced 224,870
pounds of caviare, approximately
valued at 325,000. '
The high prices commanded by ca-
viare have attracted many fishermen
to these Canadian. waters, and unless
measures are taken to reduce the
take of the sturgeon the nsh will be
exterminated to the near future. The
American waters aee alio being ex-
tensively dragged for sturgeon, .and•
last year 3.9,000, pounds of, caviare
were glippect out of tbe' United
Stales. Within the past two years
there has .been a very large catch in.
set nets. and pounds off :the beaches
of New Jersey and Long Island, and
the handling of the eggs has proved
a most profitable industry to the
fishermen. The only advantage of
sturgeon eggs in the, making of ca-
viare is found in their size and firm-
ness. The flavor does not differ, much

A Pablo With a Moral That There

A stranger in it strange land once
fell in with thieves, who found lihn
on a lonely road, beat hino robbed
him, and then tied him to a tree.
After a long wait auother travel-
ler came I.)y, mai the Stranger hi a
weak voice, pleaded for help.
Ee told the story of ids wrongs,
and the traveller said, "How sad 1"
"I cried out, but my Oleic° is not

said the victim.
"How unfortunate 1" said the
traveller.
"And the robbers tied me so that I
am utterly helpless."
"How interesting 1"
"Interesting ? Do you. thiek it
interesting to have been beaten and
robbed ? Why. the thieves took all
my money except a small sum in my
inside pocket."
"How careless i" commented the
traveller.
Then, having satisfien himself that
the stranger's story was true, that
he was really tied securely, that his
voice was weak, anct that there 'was
a small sum 'in an inside pocket, he
secured the small sum and went on

LETTER WRITING CEASING -14.
Only Cabinet Ministers Cling to
the Practice.
The autograph letter is rapidier be-
coming a thing of the past. Stoirt-
hand and the typewriter have killed
it. No business man nowadays
writes - a letter with his own hoed :
he supplies the matter and his,,
signature, and his typist does the
rest. It is an age of short cuts, and
even literary men find it more • proe,
fitable to dictate than to write
their copy. One of the most suc-
ceed -al of modern newspaper pro-
prietors confessed the other day
that he had not written a letter for
seven years, although his privaLe
Correspondence amounted to more
than fifty letters dairy.
