There Being Nothing Else to Eat, They Live Upon Each Other. "All the deep sea fishes are enormous eaters," says a naturalist. "There be ing nothing to eat but the life about them, they live upon each other. Every facility for killing -and devouring is provided luminescence to dazzle, swiftness and strength to overtake and overpower, knife blade teeth for tearing, abnormally large jaws for crushing. Whatever the prey or how ever, large it may be, there is little trouble in swallowing it. The mouth jawns like a cavern, and the stomach distends to hold a body even larger than the swallower. The appetite in fishes seems never wanting, and com plete digestion with some of them is only a matter of half an hour." For this reason slaughter goes on unend ingly. Usually it is produced only by hunger, but some monsters, like the bluefish, even when gorged, kill for pure love of killing. Of the eternal warfare that goes on beneath the surface of the waves the same writer remarks: "They follow the prey like packs of wolves, and In turn are followed, band succeeding band, Increasing in size as they decrease in numbers. The herrings eat the smaller fish, even their own young; they are harried by the blueflshes until a trail of blood stains the water, while fol lowing the blueflshes come the insati ate porpoises. Nothing saves the weaker ones but breed. Many thou sands of eggs are spawned that a dozen or more may be hatched and brought to maturity. Billions are lost; yes, but millions survive. "The herrihgs movs on the sea in uncountable numbers in banks that are miles in length and width, In wind rows so vast that they perhaps keep passing one given point in unbroken succession for months at a time. Just so with the menhaden. A catch in a purse net of 500,000 Is not infrequent. Such numbers are sufficient to with stand all the ravages of the natural enemy. The bass, the haddock and the pollock may kill to their hearts' content, and still the menhaden will hold their own." Chicago News. .

Openings are toeing made in the lines of cheaper men's wear and higher prices are being asked in the lines where cotton is a factor in the goods. - FINANCIAL MARKET. j Receipts of Naval Stores and Cotton Yesterday.

The iron ore, like stone and coke, is put in at the top and the iron and slag are drawn off at the base. The tem perature of the interior of a blast fur nace when in operation varies accord ing to circumstances, but the molten iron when drawn off is about 1,500 de grees F., indicating a much higher temperature inside. To withstand sueh terrific heat, which is maintained by a powerful blast of air which acts much in the same manner as a forced draft on a boiler, the furnace is lined on the in side with a fine grade of fire brick, thoroughly burned. This wall of non combustible material is about four feet thick, outside of which is the steel jacket of the furnace, about one-quarter of an inch thick. The lining of a furnace will last from two to six years according to the nature of the material smelted, the furnace being in continuous operation during that time. It takes about Six weeks to reline a furnace. After a furnace is "blown out," or ceases to be used, there is a quantity of iron which cools and solidifies at the base of the furnace. This is called salamander, and It is necessary to use dynamite to loosen this material and get it out of Ihe fnrnace so that re pairs can be consummated. Salaman der has a ready sale, as it is a fine grade of pi? Iron. As a rule, when trade conditions are good a blast -furnace is never allowed to oidI 2-v!i or be taken out of blast ei:ept at of several years for relininr. Bm ! imore Sun. Striking. "Auntie," said Tolly, ruefully rub bing her forehead, "that big photo graph of you is a striking likeness, isn't it?" "Do you thmk so, dearie?" "Yes," said Polly.

The secret of the fue (-saving quali ties of this Buck's hot blast heater lies in the draft construction. It is so made as to allow large quantities of heated air to pass over the upper sur face of the burning coal, thus supplying oxygen to the rising gasses, which are then converted into heating power. Simple, isn't it? And yet it's new principle in stove building not to be found elsewhere. This stove will reduce your coal bill nearly one-third. Let us teil your of its many advantages. WM. E.
