FOUND IN A FISH.
Curiam Fact A bout tbe "Murray
Cod" of Australia.
There is a large fish found in the
rivers of -western Australia known as
the "Murray Cod." This fish which is
delicious for the tabic is remarkable
for its size, sometimes weighing- as
much, as 150 pound's; but the strangest
thing- about it is the fact that it car
ries around a photograph inside its
body. At least the natives say that it
is a photograph, and-certainly it looks
like one.
When the Murray cod is cut open a
bladder is seen, extending along the
backbone from just behind the gills to
the fatrty part of the tail. In a 30
pound fish the bladder is about 12
inches long andi an inch or more in
width. Within this is a film, or thin
membrane, through which, runs a deli
cate tracery composed of a multitude
of little red' lines, interlacing like the
frost work on a window pane in win
ter. This film can be peeled- off and
spread upon a sheet of paper or a piece
of cloth, to which it readily adheres.
It then forms a very pretty picture.
Sometimes it looks like a bit of
pressed seaweed; sometimes it seems to
portray a miniature landscape with a
dark forest background; but in most
cases it presents a surprisingly distinct
outline of a single tree, the Australian
gum tree, a species of eucalyptus.
To explain this singular fact the ab
origines have a-n ingenious theory.
They say that the picture thus im
prinledi on the membrane represents
the tree which overshadows the pool
where the big fish made its haunt in
short, that it is a real photograph.
Fanciful as the notion seems, it gains
a certain plausibility from the known
habits of the fish, which is extremely
solitary and exclusive in its ways. The
Murray cod really does make its home
in some forest-shadowed' pool, to which
it always returns after its excursions
abroad for food or exercise, leading a
curiously hermit-like existence; it will
allow no other member of its. species to
intrude upon its domain. Here the sul
len creature spends its' life, j-ear in and
year out; it never changes its resi
dence. Here it grows from insignificant
minnowhood' until it becomes a king
among fishes, as big and heavy as a
well-developed man, and for the greater
part of each day the shadow of its fa
vorite tre3 falls upon its slimy back.
It is little wonder, therefore, that the
unt utored but imaginative savages, puz
zled by the lifelike picture which they
flnd in the bladder, conclude that the
familiar scene has become photo
graphed in the creature's very sub
stance. N. Y. Journal.
A NEW WESTERN IDEA.
Girls Who Give Gold Models of Their
Little Ftnsrera to Their Betrothed.
"Do girls here give gold models of
their little finc-ers to their fi
asked the western girl of the Gotham
ite, reports the New York Sun.
"Heavens, no!" answered the Goth
amite. "It seems to me that that is
rather a grewsome souvenir."
"Not at all," answered the western
girl; "it is decidedly dainty, and I'm a
little surprised that New York is so far
behind the times. . The fad started in
this way. When the daughter of one
of our big western politicians was six
months old he had a model of her little
finger cast in gold. Around the little
dimpled digit is a ring of turquoise,
which is her birth stone, and it makes
alovelychannforher betrothed's watch
chain. He valued it so much that it
set other men to thinking, and the re
sult is that as soon as a girl wraps one
of these chaps around her own little
finger sufficiently for a proposal to fol
low he immediately insists upon a gold
facsimile of the flesh and blood orig
inal. It is a pretty conceit, and is be
ing followed by every westerner who
is in subjection to somebody's little
finger."
