Coavaon to All, Sweden "ntl Bssentksl to Their Eslstenc*. A fish Just token from tbo water, if handled, la found to be slippery and conteil with slime. All Habe?, 'the meanest and Ute noblest, kllllflsh and ?hark, shad, salmon and trout, wear Ulis nil inn. They could not exist with? out It. The nil mo 1s secreted usually In a continuous Bcrles of duets, with numniv eus openings rirrnnged lu a Hue extend* tng nlong the side of the Qsli. Horn? Qshes hate one line op a side, some have llvo or six. The lines may be plainly visible, and In some cnaoa np pear to bo u inurklug on tho fish. More Often they are not observsbie nt nil. Some fishes store this secretion lu pores, distributed over the whole surface of Uie hotly, tho larger number, however, to pores lu lateral lines. There are also pores for the secretion of mucus, or slime/ lu the flRh'n bead. The slime la exuded through tho di? visions between the scales to the outor part of tho body, over which It spreads, form In? a sort of outer skin, or cover? ing, transparent and bnvlng elasticity and tenacity and often considerable body, it would not.be remarkable for a fair slaed fish, say a tub of two pounds weight, to have a coating of ?lime n thirty-second of an Inch In thickness. Fishes vary greatly In the amount of slime which they soerote. Tbc eel will suggest Itself as ono that H very slimy. \ The fish's slimy coating reduces Its friction, when In motion and helps to Increase Its speed. It nkls In protect, tug the scales from Injury, being of ?hrfDclent substance to serve In sums measure an n cushion. The slimy covering makes tho fish hard to hold aud so enable* It the mom readily- to escape from Its enemies. It Is some? times rppugnnnt to other fishes, which nre repelled by 11.8 odor. It la the si hue from the fishes handled that innkes tho angler "amell fishy," as tho oxprcsulou goes. A most Important function of the' fish's slimy roivUng la to protect It from tho attacks of fungus, a form of plant life found In all waters, salt and fresh, Including tho purost. The sllmo covers tho entire exterior surface Of tho fish, including tiio fins. Fungus does not attach to the slime, but If the fish were to be Injured so that there was upon It some spot uncovered by the sPinc upon that spot somo ndnutu fragment of fungns, no small as to bo scarcely moro thnn visible, would be likely to lodpfe. Once lodged thu fun? gus Is reproduced yory fast. Fish sometimes recover from at? tacks of fungus, but much morn often they do not. The fungus dlsplnces tho skin, Inflammation Ib set up, and the place attacked becomes practically a ?ore. With Its continued growth tho fungus may cover the side of the fish and extend over the gills nnd tin ally kill It. WanMndtnii'i Itntirl. George Washington's hand whs dir ?crlbed as that of a giant.
