Colonel. On the contrary, it is just coming into view. As a bachelor, I like a couple of rooms; but as a married man, I must spread myself over a house. Lady Alice. Ha!—in other words, I’m to be turned out to make way for the Coloneless! Colonel. (Rising.) There, you have hit it! Lady Alice. I forgive you, in favor of your wife, though I own I do not like moving. I am quite a creature of habit, and I own I like the place. Colonel. (Leaning on the back of the Lady Alice’s chair.) Keep on liking it. Don’t move. Lady Alice. But the Coloneless? Colonel. She will be perfectly agreeable, provided— Lady Alice. Provided? Colonel. That you changed your name.

Fish-remains.—People living upon lakes plentifully stocked with fish, it can be imagined, availed themselves of all means in their power for capturing them, and the numerous remains of fishes discovered on the sites of the ancient lacustrine villages bear witness to the extent of their efforts in that direction. Not only the bones of fishes but also their scales, the latter even in a good state of preservation, have been extracted from the lake-mud. “With respect to fishes,” says Professor Rütimeyer, “many species were found which are now the most abundant in our lakes and rivers.” The following are mentioned:— The salmon (Salmo salar, Lin.), the pike (Esox lucius. Lin.), the perch (Perca fluviatilis, Lin.), the carp (Cyprinus carpio, Lin.), the dace (Cyprinus leuciscus, Lin.), the chub (Cyprinus dobula, Nilss.), the nase (Chondrostoma nasus, [Lin.] Agass.), the burbot (Lita vulgaris, Jen.), and the rud (Scardinius erythrophthalmus, [Lin.] Bon.).
