For Instnnco tho use of tho "flro less cooker" Is an economy. This de vice of Norwegian origin, has como to stoy nnd is finding n place In nearly every modern kitchen. Conservative housowlvefl laughed nt the so-called flreless cooker a fow years ago. But It Is llko every other Invention.

Man ban trained many nnlmnls to do his bidding. The horso has learned to wear saddle and harness; tho dog Is a valuable aid In hunting nnd In lending shcop; In tho deserts of Africa nnd Asln cumols nro used as steeds nnd ns beasts of burden; nnd in India tho natives rido olophants, nnd also uso them to carry heavy londs. Uut perhaps tho most unlquo tnslc to which lower creatures havo been trained by mnn Is Been In China and along tho const of Africa, where fishing is ono of tho chief Industries. Chinese flshormcn mnko uso of largo birds called cormorants, to tnko their catch from tho water. Tho cor morant, which is nbout tho clzo of a small goose, is n splendid swimmer, and is exccedlnly fond of fish. It has webbed feet, a sharp bill with a small pouch In tho lowor mandlblll, nnd small, round wings which It uses with great skill under water. Being so swift nnd strong a swimmer, it can dlvo to a great dopth, and such fish as it pursues rarely cscapo it. Tho fisherman goes out on n small, rnft- llko stijucturo called a sampan. Tho cormorants are rnnged nlong tho odgo of tho craft whero thoy can watch tho water bb thoy drift along with tho current. When tho presonco of fish la sensed, ono of tho birds Is nllowed to dive. It hna a ord about Its neck which becomes taut ns It leaves tho edgo of tho boat, thus preventing It from swallowing tho fish it catches. When It comcB up all tho flshermnn has to do Is tako tho fish from Its mouth, or, If It has tried to swallow Its prey, from Its pouch. Octopl, or dovll-flsh, aro used In catching turtles along tho African const. Tho waterB hero abound In tho shell-encased creatures which nro highly prized by tho natives. Tho first task of tho turtlo fishor Ib to catch an octopus. This done, ho fastens a cord nbout Its head nnd an other nbout Its tall, nnd then lowers it In tho wntor near whero a bed of young or half-grown turtles Is known to be. Tho octopus has n number of thick, whlp-llko nrniB of unoven length radiating from Hb pudgy head nnd body. Tho arms, or tentnclcs, aro covered with small, disc-shaped suck orB by means of which It Ib nblo to at tach ltsolf to any object. It stayB near tho surfaco of tho water until It glimpses Hb proy, then It darts down ward and attaches Its Biickers to tho turtlo. All tho fishor has to do Is to haul up tho octopus, removo tho tur tlo, nnd repoat tho performance until tho bed Is llBhed empty. In describing hlB experiences In An dcrsomillo and other southern pris ons during tho civil war, C. A.
