How a Gr American wate puta Point, the fi wel erude miter! on Buz light } sth others were t different through Vineyar and in zard’s Bay. About twenty years ago a similar experiment was tried at Pamet Harbor, Truro. It was built of poles and laths, but proved a failure and was abandon- ed after one trial. season's vtrap which had been in use during the summer in the Bay Chaleur was taken up, brought to North Traro, and put down for a short time in the fall. Che venture proved a success, and from this has sprung the present wear busi- ness of Cape Cod. The poles of this trap were fastened with large rocks and kept upright by this means. ‘The poles were hung with netting, instead of be interlaced hlaths. From this time onward, for four or five y . the growth of this business was very rapid until now eighteen deep water wears can be counted from Wood end light along the inside shore of the cape to the bound- ing line between Truro and Wellfleet, besides a number of shoal water wears. Others are in use at Brewster, Dennis, Sandwich, at various points around Bos- ton harbor, and along the north shore. The traps are built in the shape of an arrow, with a bell point. The fact that fish when pursued or frightened almost invariably turn off-shore for afety in deep water taken advan- tage of in constructing the traps, the off-ends of which are in about forty fect of water. The poles are driven some distance apart in a straight line for about fiften hundred feet from the shore, which is called “the leader.” At the ends of this the poles are driven in the shape of a heart, with the point off shore and entrance either side where it joins the leader. About 130 poles, either oak or hick- ory, and from twenty to sixty feet long, are used in the construction of each trap. These poles, which come mostly from Connecticut, cost from $4 to $7 when ready for use, and last about two years, About 2,100 square feet of net- ting is used for each trap, which is thoroughly coated with tar before be- ing used, Each trap is also provided with an extra set of nets, which are changed once & month. an on The fish when swimming along with the tide strike ‘the leader,” and natur- ally turning off-shore for safety, follow the leader until they tind themsely inside the heart, from which they sel- dom escape, as they seek deeper water instead of trying to return the way they got in. At the point of the heart the po.es are driven in the form of a circle, which is connected with the heart and called “the bowl,”’ which has a net bottom as well as sides. For ease in handling the fish are driven from the heart into the bowl, the net bottom and sides of which are drawn close to- gether and the fish bailed into the boats by small dip nets. Of the products of the wears the mackerel and the bait fish are the prin- cipal dependence of the fishermen for profit. The bait, which includes her- ring, alewives, squid and some small mackerel, is sold to the Cape Cod and Cape Ann vessels in the Georges and shore-fishing fleets, at prices ranging from $1 to $3 per barrel, according to supply. It rried to the fishing grounds packed in ice. Some of the ’ salted, while most t the sizes, also cod and other market fish, are packed in ice and shipped fresh to the commission dealers of Boston, New York and Philadelphia. Almost every kind of fish known in rs have been cat so many rare and curious specimens, from the monster sea-turtle down to ctric eel and the tiny smelt." nut April land Is at Christmas time, the crews i ut putting down and taking ups. mount of capital invested in the | business in Truro and Provincetown is estimated at $40,000 to $50,000. The deep wat traps cost from $3,000 to bh includes one large sail- at, two dories and a large fish-house thon the shore, The crews, consist- other » senson begins al Ww two or three ste the ing of a captain and six men, werk on what is termed ‘“half-pay,”” which means one-half of the net receipts after the freight, carting and commissions are deducted. ‘The owners take the other half, out of which they deduct all | repairs On the trap.

The gather- ed belted waist is excellent for ging- hams, with the fullness only at the belt, or else carried up to the neck in front. Acollar of embroidery may be made standing or turned over in Byron shape, as French dresses are now shown quite low at the throat. The coat sleeves, the shirt sleeves with wristband, or the full puffed sleeves are all suitable for these dresses. For home wear a full round gathered skirt simply hemmed will complete a gingham dress prettily, but for general wear it is more usual to have a plaited skirt and apron drap- ery. The skirt may be a regular kilt held by tapes passed underneath, or there may be a foundation skirt of gngham with one or two gathered flounces around it, as these gathered rufiles easily laundric Lav- ender heliotrope — ginghams with or with — primrose stripes in great demand this summer, with loops and bows of dark- er velvet ribbon on the neck and sleeves.

It causes Headache, Mental De- ion, impairs the Sight and Hearing, Appetite, and, when long ed, causes Enlargement of the Liver, Intammation of the Bowels, and Piles. Constipation is speedily cured by Ayer’s Pills. For a number of months I was troubled with Costiveness, in conse- quence of which I suffered from Loss of Appetite, Dyspepsia, and a disordered liver. My eyes also troubled me. I was compelled to wear a shade over them, and, at times, was unable to bear ex- posure to the light. I was entirely CURED BY USING three boxes of Ayer’s Pills. I have no hesitation in pronouncing this medicine to be the best cathartic ever made. — James Eccles, Poland, Ohio. I suffered from Constipation, and, con- sequently, from Headache, Indigestion, and Piles, for years. Ayer’s Pills, which i took at the suggestion of a friend, have given me effectual relief.
