HAPPY IS MAN WITH HOBBY Will Do Better Work in His Regular Profession if He Occasionally Leaves Beaten Path, I knew a doctor who made fishing rods during his spare time, and a lawyer who made clocks. In con- sequence, the doctor was a better doctor and the lawyer a better law- yer than could otherwise have been. Sometimes hobbies are inborn, some- The story goes that Peter the Great's hobby for boat building came about by coming upon an old boat turned upside down in a store- house on one of his country estates. The boat was too rottea for use but with the aid of Carsten Brandt, who had been brought from Holland, it was put in working order. From that day Peter the Great conceived He even went so far as to journey to | Holland, where he enrolled himself among the ship carpenters, and wrought as a common carpenter un- der the name of Master Peter.

Fishes of that kind breed in the ocean, and so it is necessary to buy the young ones in quantity, “plant- ing” them in the ponds and feeding them with refuse until they are big enough to be marketable. | The little eels used for planting are mostly imported from France and Italy. In our own country the streams in early spring swarm with and, if we were to adopt the practice | of planting them in ponds, allowing | them to grow, they would afford an important and valuable contribu-| tion to our food supply.—Philadel- | phia Ledger.
