Tha shark Is undoubtedly a "dog vvltli a bad name." llo is called oppro DrloiiHly tlio "llgor of the seas," or the "sailor's foe," or any other scurrilous nnmn which happens to be handy.

Hcciiuso In reality this blue water botflo Is a humble and useful public servant who performs un complainingly the duties connei'led with the sanitation of the seas. The shark Is the common scavenger and general undertaker of the ocean. He Is not, and, for reasons connected with hi? very moderate speed limit, never can be primarily a llsh of prey. Open any captured shark and you will ilnd clear proof that this Is so. A few tangled bits of rope yarn, a bat lered corned beef tin, a corked bolt If containing an Insulting niww to the Under (thrown overboard by some nan ileal wag) or a sailor's cap which ha been lost In a gn,le, all tend to show that the tdiark Is a llsh of buslness-llkf habits vrtlh a Iwn eye to any dinner windfalls which may come In his way lint the uioro digestible contents of lib otoniadi, consisting mainly of carrion of every kind, all give the clearest ol factory evidence (hat the original own crs of tlioin were not alive In fact, wore very much dead -when this ma rlue sanitary Inspector came along and condemning them as nuisances, reinov d them Into his own Internal refuse bin. A large accumulation of carefully col looted evidence on this point proves conclusively that there are, as a mat tor of fact, only two articles of bis or dlnary menu which the shark Is able W capture alive; namely, an occasional unwary sea fowl which he may happei to surnrlse asleep on the surface o' the water and the ugly, octopusllki pquld, whose limited jKwers of locomo Hon give a chance to our hungry four knot prowler. The shark, then, so far from be!n the gore-dyed pirate which the novells paints Jilm, Is a mere hiird-w'orklng commonplace drudge, and as such de Borvc, if not kindness, at any rate tol oration.
