There is a, elms of anglers who swal-
low with singular avidity any state-
ment concerning tithes If it has a semi-

quirea an amusing doctrine concerning
the influenee of the moon upon fishes
and regulate their piscatorial excursions
according to tuna's phases. The sign of
the Zodiac believed to be the most fav-
orable to good sport with the rod is to
sign of Pisces, or the twin fishers, into
which the moon passes for two or more
days each month. The anglers who
are students of the almanac watch this

Brief Vacations Most Enjoyable.
Whether our vacation be taken at
home or afield ita success depends upon
what one of the philosophera calls our
relation to ourselves. "Limitation makes
for happiness" is an accepted proverb.
That is to slay, the more fun is to be
gotten out of it." We are happy in pro-
portion as our range of vision, our spheze
of work, our points of contact with the
svorld aro restricted." There ie no rea-
son why the philosoplay If sound, should
not be applied to holidays. For most peo-
ple the vacation period Is neceetiadly
brief. It is eomforting to know that it
need not be fruitless for that reason.
