Buckbta 00(X?O0OfXjOOQQOfXXjrXXMOf3OOat H x I W. About the middle of February, vrhoa tho no!Lh Is shivering In wintry wlada, with ou occasional dash of snow, the turtlera of Nussau are getting - their little vessels ready for the rnimmer cruise in the waters of the Bahama Is lands, running as for south as Grand Turk and tho Calcos group, and even to tue waters of Santo Domlruro. In I wnrch of tho highly prized hawkJilll - 1 turtle In zoology Eretniocbelys Imbrl- catn, explains Joseph A- Ilowella in the New Vork Sun. This Is the turtle thnt furnishes th) tortoise-shell, also caked caret. These shells are worth from $3 to $20 a jwund, according to thick uesa and markings. A turtle bout in ordlnnrlly a little (sohootieruboutthlrtyfoetiong and four teen feet beam, but they vary In size. They are seaworthy and simple In rltf. The merchants of Nassau fit out hun dreds of those vesflols, each of which carries a number of small boat, with two men to each boat, a cook, who has charge' of the vessel when the men are off after turtles, and nn extra" man on the larger vessels. Tbe usual equipment Is about as fol- low9: For fifteen tons or smaller rea sels, five boats and eleven men ; twenty tons, eight boats and eighteen men 5 thirty tons, ten boats and twenty-two men. The small bonts oro about oloven feet long, flnt-bottomed and quite sea worthy. When not In use they art nested amidships on each side of the innst Each small boat Is equipped with an oar for sculling, a water glass, a wood-! en box twelve Inches lone nnd tpn Inches square, In one end of which la. fitted, wnter-tlght, an ordinary window: pane; fifty or sixty fnthoms of light ropa attached to a conical net six feeti deep with slx-by-elgfit-inch mesh, at the- bottom of which is a half Inch Iron! hoop four and one-half feet In dia meter, and weighted with lead. When the vessel reaches the bunting grounds, the boats are put over and scattered about for la mile or more. Each boat has an expert, turtler, who, Ilea at the bow with his face close to, tho, water glass, which Is Immersed; three or four Inches under tho surface of the water. Through this he searches' the bottom from six to twenty or thirty fathoms below, which In those clear waters Is plainly visible. TTjo man In the stern sculls the boat. the fisherniaa signaling with Ms bare feet the course he wants taken. When ho sees a turtle be carefully lowers the net and drops it over his game, which Immediately tries 'to escape, but be comes entangled In the meshes and la soon landed in the boat As the hawkbill is hunted for the shell on Its back, when taken aboard the vessel It is killed and the shell removed. If it Is wanted, tbe best parts of the meat are saved for food, but the rest Is cast into the sea. Thou sands of pounds of soup material are thus wasted ; for next to the green tur tle, the hnwkbin Is the best for soup that Is caught. If a canning outfit were attached to a turtler, a large amount of valuable material could be saved. - Turtle fishing is attended with thff proverbial fisherman's luck. Some times the crew which works on shares will take one hundred and eighty pounds in three months, and again not hnlf as much. Sometimes the catch In three months will amount to one thou sand dollars. The value of the shells varies greatly. ' The-averaire hawkbill will be worth from $5 to $25. The most valuable are those termed "lantern-backed," and the clear shell Is worth $25 a pound. Happiness From Troable. Being human, hapjilly or unhappily. we cannot deny the comfort to be found in the reflection that misery aever lacts the company it lores. We all have our troubles, and some of us derive much satisfaction from the con templation of them. Indeed, there are those who are happy only when wretch- 4... x .u , . . rv, oui tuese we Deneve to oe as rew In nu-niber as they are disagreeable In Association. The vast majority- of hn (nans are normal and disposed, there- ore, m conformity with natural law. to smile when the skies are clear and o grieve under the portent of clouds; aence the- ease with which worry takes (xiBnession of the mind, colors the dis position and makes a cripple of effort. rliat causes abound we know and ttiunt admit, as we do almost uncon sciously the certainty of death, but too little cognizance Is taken of the1 Jaot that the effect of mere apprehen ilon, which is all that worry really is. amy be subjected to simplo mental .'reatment and be overcome.
