... HOW WILD-FOWL COME TO MARKET. By Wild Fowler. No. VII.-- SNARING AND HOOKING SEA-FOWL ON THE CONTINENT. IT is somewhat puzzling at first for a stranger to make out how the poorer villagers who live on the coasts of France and Belgium manage to live at all.

DOGS I HAVE KNOWN

... . Part IX. IT seems at first sight somewhat erratic to jump from a description of the little terrier Monkey to that of a kangaroo dog.

BOBBING FOR CAT-FISH

... BOBBING FOB CAT-FISH. BRINK POND, Pike Country, Penn., Aug. 10.-- Bobbin' for cat-fish may seem to be at first thought, not only an extremely unpoetieal, but a decidedly undignified, means of extracting pleasure from a summer holiday.

SOLEMN SPORT AT SUNBURY

... . Barbel-fishing is a solemn thing. The ways of barbel are dark. He is the anchorite of the finny tribe, the lay-brother of the fish family. He lurks fathoms deep in dim holes, and sulks under frowning banks, torpid and morose in the cold bosom of his sullen kind. He is not to be lured like other fish. To fish for him is to endure, and not to be attempted without unlimited patience and pale ...
