EDUCATED EELS. In Argyllshire there is a cottage standing on the bank of a fairly large river. It is the custom of the occupants to carry out domestic operations on the edge of the stream. It is there: that fish, rabbits, and fowls are cleaned and garbage disposed of generally. The result is that eels attracted' by the taint in the water have been in the habit of eon> in.g out from tlic middle of the river to feast on this refuse. So accustomed have the eels become to feed!, at this spot that they have learned to associate ceTtain sounds with food. The clattering of pots and pans, even before anything has been thrown out, will bring them; up out of the depths in considerable numbers. To call up the cels is a retcognised item in the entertainment of visitors at the cottage. No need for bed so p ks with n “UNIQUE” HOT WATER BOTTLE. Look for name “Unique” or. stopper, your guarantee. All chemists and dealers.—S. DROP DRUGS AND DOPE TABLETS! The scientific method of treating a iold cr checking influenza is to snih up an disinfect- the nasal and tihroat passages with warm F’.uenzol. The use of Cbugli Syrups or soothing drugs and tablets upsets the stomach, disorganises the system with eventual injury to* the heart.
