MORE FISHY YARNS. 
The longest fish yarn I ever heard told was 
that spun by my old fishing pal Bill Glassen- 
bury, who lives on his interest, consequently he 
has time to see it out when once started. Bill’s 
yarn begins 30 miles t’other side of Geelong, 
where he found a fishing-line and hooks on the 
road (he was a carrier then, bound for the 
Ovens diggings), and it meanders on, with a 
thousand embellishments, not forgetting one 
night when Bill pared his corns, till be camped 
on the Goulburn, at Seymour. How Bill re¬ 
members the night is because he bought some 
potatoes (fully described) at the local store. 
At tea he remembered his line and hooks; then 
he started to find a sinker (the search for that 
sinker takes two hours to tell). When he got 
back to camp Bill’s dog (biography of the dog 
comes in here) had eaten all the stores except 
one big mealy spud. This he put on the hook 
(takes an hour to bait Bill’s hook with spud). 
The cod that took that spud was a io-pounder 
when Bill first told the yarn to our oldest in¬ 
habitant; now it’s up to 315 pounds, and still 
growing. The landing of that fish takes three 
hours; the digression to explain “that golden 
perch never grow bigger’n 40 pound” and con¬ 
sequent arguments take four hours. Then how 
Bill cleaned and salted that fish to take it home 
to his wife (Bill wasn’t married till ten years 
later) would fill a three-volume novel. Bill’s 
sole relaxation between the dates his interest 
becomes due is to retail the fish yarn in in¬ 
stalments.-—Sidney Bulletin. 
STRETCHING THE ANTLERS. 
It does not always follow that you can esti¬ 
mate the. size and age of an animal entirely by 
the spread of the horns. The points are con¬ 
sidered by the guides to be a more certain in¬ 
dication. For that matter the spread of antlers 
on a mounted head is not always quite what it 
was when the moose was alive. 
There are tricks in one or two trades, includ¬ 
ing the taxidermy. One of these tricks is to 
split the skull and readjust the bones so as to 
set the antlers at a more obtuse angle. Another 
is to steam the antlers, and while they are thus 
softened to press them outward; but, as Uncle 
Henry said, if the folks who resort to these 
tricks to enhance their triumps would be con¬ 
tent with gaining two or three inches all might 
be well, so far as bluffing the public is con¬ 
cerned. 
“But they get greedy,” he chuckled, “and then 
it’s all up with them. They can’t steal six or 
seven inches and fool anybody that knows any¬ 
thing. You can tell by the set of the antlers 
that they’ve been tampered with.”—Sun. 
NEW ZEALAND. 
Long it surely is—something like eleven 
hundred miles from tip to tip—but so narrow 
that one could hardly establish oneself a hun¬ 
dred miles from the ocean, or from mountains, 
either, for that matter; and bright—so bright 
that between the showers the sun seems shin¬ 
ing and the breezes blowing pretty much all the 
time. It makes a climate that is perfection— 
never either hot or cold—and a soil producing 
in abundance almost anything that flourishes 
under the blue heavens; while beneath are gold 
and silver, coal, iron, tin, antimony and what 
not. There are vast forests, with deer-stalking 
and all that kind of thing, and snow-topped 
mountains the whole length of New Zealand, 
covering the country with streams—streams full 
of trout. There are vast tracts which have not 
yet been touched, as hints of future possibilities; 
and there’s near four and a half thousand miles 
of sea-coast, where pretty much all the fish that 
flourish are found swimming.—Putnam’s.
