WH New England's Fisheries HEN the Pilgrims sent their agent from Leyden in 1618 to secure the consent of the English crown to the settlement they proposed making in America, King James asked, "What profit might arise?" The single word, "Fishing", was the reply. But the colonists did not intend to engage in fishing as a business. Only by chance did they land at Plymouth Bay and by dint of circumstances they took to the sea for a means of livelihood. Once realizing the value of this industry, however, the Massachusetts General Court soon passed enactments "for the encouragement of men to set upon fishing". In the year 1641, Governor Winthrop reported 300,ooo dry fish sent to market-the early beginning of a business that in 1918 brought to Boston, Gloucester and Portland, alone, over 300,000,000 pounds of fish, valued at more than $10,000,000. and preserving of their products, does New England's interest extend. The latest available statistics report that Maine and Massachusetts together, in 1914, canned nearly 5,000,000 cases of fish and oysters-more than half the total in the United States-and over 100,000,000 pounds of cured fish. New England has nurtured from infancy many other industries for which she is famed, besides her fisheries, and she possesses ports on the Atlantic which make her the natural marketplace for European and South American trade. The Old Colony Trust Company of Boston is prepared to render every financial service to those wishing to benefit by her many commercial advantages of location and resources.

An American army officer has invented what is called a relaxing trigger to insure better marksmanship. The new trigger is pulled clear back, and then, after the pressure on it ceases, it moves forward and fires the gun automatically. Johnny Smith had got into his first pair of long "pants," an exchange says, and felt his new importance. He answered a ring at the door. "Is Mr. Smith in ?" inquired the stranger. "I am Mr. Smith," Johnny announced without a smile. The exportation of locomotives and steel rails furnishes an interesting indication of the trend of reviving trade. In September, according to the "Railway Age," in a total of 154 locomotives bought, France took the largest number, and was followed by Italy, Cuba, China, and Spain. Of rails, Cuba took the greatest amount, and was followed by Canada, Brazil, French Africa, and Sweden. Of freight cars, the largest number were bought by France, while Poland, Mexico, Cuba, and Italy followed in the order named.

Unusual prosperity as a result of the high price of cotton was responsible, according to the New York "Times," for a little mixup in the plans of Sambo and Mandy. They had both saved money, and finally each concluded to spend some of it in a present to the other. "Ah's goin' shoppin'!" Sambo announced one morning. Mandy followed at noon. They shopped independently and returned in triumph at supper. Each one had a surprise for the other, which neither would divulge till the morning. Daylight brought their surprises -together. Two big furniture vans backed up to the two-room cabin, and from each was brought forth a shiny upright piano! Sambo and Mandy had each bought a piano and paid cash for it.

It receives messages from nerves in various regions of the body and transmits them to minor nerve centers or "ganglia," which ganglia," which directly act on the muscles to be stimulated. Its principal function is to keep in operation various mechanical processes, of which the most important is the elimiproper nation of food waste. The presence of food waste in the colon ready for discharge causes a message to pass to this plexus. The plexus immediately forwards this message on to the smaller nerve centers which directly control the muscles of elimination in the walls. of the colon. Nujol, unlike cathartics, works only on the waste matter and not on the system. It does not stimulate or harm, and therefore is the safe and rational treatment for constipation. Nujol simply softens the food waste and keeps it at the proper consistency, making it easy for the muscles to pass it from the body in their normal way. In the same process it relieves the nerves of over-exertion and enables them to rest. Nujol actually prevents constipation because it helps nature maintain easy, thorough bowel evacuation at regular intervals-the healthiest habit in the world. It does not cause nausea or griping, nor interfere with the day's work or play. Nujol is absolutely harmless and pleasant to take. Try it.
