Bad Thing- For the Fish Trade. Short Sighted Fishermen. Quantities of small mallets have been brought to this market lately. Saturday a trading schooner load was brought. The fish were piled np In quantities on the fish stands at market dock and were sold at very low prices. Inquiry of fish dealers revealed the fact that the catching of these small un developed fish is considered very inju rious to the trade and to the interest of those engaged in supplying the market, the fishermen themselves. It was said that the load of fish brought in Saturday if allowed to grow until next fall wonld have filled the big vessel Ivy Blades. These mullets are not a migrating fish, they remain and develop In the waters in which they are born. The same fisher men, who bring in these small fish and sell them for fifty cents a box with per haps 1000 fish In a box, object to the use ot long seines and pound nets. They say "well If we don't catch them some one else will, and anyway we might not catch them next fall." This is a very short sighted argument as It Is believed that catching sach quantities of these fish must make a material reduction in the number of large fish In the fall, for these fish are able to take care of them selves, having passed the age when they are the prey of larger fish. Probably no larger than a five eighth Inch net is used In catching these mul let when an Inch and a half should be used. It Is said that no smaller than the latter else are used la Florida and that the beneficial results are apparent.. A Splendid Local Institution. We call attention to the Statement of tho New Bern Building and Loan Asso ciation published In this issue, also to the notice of payment of the 7th series of slock.

Persons with seeming good vision are quite often led to believe tbelr eyes are normal and complain of eye strain and headache and most all the symtoms an optician knowsto come from defective eyes, and quite naturally too, for cannot they see alright? You can have most any eye defect with seemingly, good eyes, and these cases are those which an optician finds more trouble In correcting and the patient more pain before correction. This seemB carious nevertheless true, because in a low error the muscles strive to over come the defect by the power of accom modation resulting in strain, on the other hand in a high degree the eye has not tbe power to accomodate sufficiently to overcome the error, the eye appreciat ing this state of affairs does not spend any of its strength by trying to over come the error, causing no pain nor any aggravating symtoms such as inflamation of the lids and etc., but of course the vision is reduced according to the class and degree of defect The moral of tils is to impress on you that your eyes can be defective when your vision is apparently good, and pretty sure to be so when accompa ned by any symtoms I have mentioned and I trust I hive made It plain enough forsny intelligent reader to understand. Another word in regard to cheap spectacles. In buying lens only the very first quality are free from flaws and Irregular curves, every flaw and scratch Is opaque causing the corresponding part on the retina to become less sensible to light and irritating the eye, at limes causing irreparable damage. Tbe general effect Is to demorolize the most sensitive part of the body the eye; In cheap spectacles the Bpheric curves being Irregular, oftimes result in a cylindrical lens, causing theeo wearing It to become astigmatic, tbe most troublesome defect to optician and patient, tbe frames of some lens being made Imperfect causes them to be d ecentered, resulting In muscle trouble, in fact any frame st and price not adjusted right will cause muscle strain (Asthenopia.)
