Fish Story It was Friday. The Presbyterian strahger to Wellington took his- seat at a restaurant in Lambton Qy. and studied the fish menu. The card sported a fine selection of moki, groper, schnapper ' and other sundfy ocean dwellefs, but the diher finally decided he could do no better thari tefakihi, so terakihi was the order. He seemed mil'dly surprised when the Waitress in the gravy-*spo~tted srhock waddled to the slide and bawled: "Fish, one!" 1 Where There's Smoke A man who called on a Weiling^, ton neWspaper yesterday said that he had invented a device by which the bachelor cotlld' cook a meal by 1 the smoke of his neighboUf's fire. He said he had intended taking, out a world patent bn the device, which he had christened the "smokooker." When a reporter asked him what would happen if his neighbours did not have a fire or it was summer time, he replied that he hadn't thought of that, but when he had ovefcofne the difficulty he would call again.
