Scale fish, in Hank's native section were about as rare as gold coins on a church contribution plate. The stand- | ard fish was a little “finger” cat, black and despicable in the purview of the coast fisherman; but Hank and his friends back home thought catching them was rare sport, and that they were really “game” fish, Hank was a fisherman at heart. When he came to the city to “take a position” in one of the stores he con- tinually bragged about how he used to “yank ‘em out,” and what fine ones they were. The boys stood Hank's palaver for a time, until they got tired of it, and then they resolved to show him what real “fishing” was like. That is how it came about that a party was made up to go for channel buss off Bloody Point, with Hank as the guesl% 1 of honor, Whel'e Can You Get Them? !

GUY W, TOPH G. PROPRIETOR Phone 279 P. CLEMMONXNS MANAGER Corner Florida & Main Quaint Oaths. The first appearance in an English divorce court of the Chinese form of oath by breaking a saucer recalls oth er quaint forms of swearing In Assam the oath is taken by stand ing within a rope circle, to imply a wish to rot as the rope does if the swearer does not tell the truth. In lawsuits between Russians and the Ostiaks of Siberia 2 bear's head is brought into court, and the Ostiak making the gesture of eating, calls on the bear to devour him if he lies There are tribes of India that swear by the head of a tiger, while others chop a dog in two as emblematic of the fate of the perjurer. But the sim- plest method is that of the Quaker, who swears not at all, but just tells The Sanitary Market Florida and Western Meats of All Kinds Fresh Vegetables #& Mother's Bread We Arc Now in Our} New and Permanent Quarters what he thinks. 514 Franklin Street.
