Excerpt from The Devonian Fishes of Missouri Mr. Rowley says of the occurrence of these fossils: I have found them in the one-foot dark blue shale under the Louisiana or lithographic limestone, from the top of the shale quite to the bottom, but most abundant from the middle to the top. Just under the Louisiana limestone is a thin band of yellow sandy shale, from a fraction of an inch to two and one-half inches thick, well filled with the same fossils as the limestone above. In places, especially where the yellow shale is thin, the fossils extend downward, sometimes two or three inches, thus invading the fish bone horizon.

Excerpt from The Story of the Fishes These two movements may be made antagonistic by poor teaching. The book knowledge, containing as it does the precious lesson of human experience, may be so taught as to bring with it only dead rules of conduct, only dead, scraps of information, and no stimulant to original thinking. Its contents may be memorized without being understood. On the other hand, the self-activity of the child may be stimulated at the expense of his social well-being - his Originality may be cultivated at the expense of his rationality. If he is taught persistently to have his own way, to trust only his own senses. To cling to his own Opinions heedless of the experience of his fellows, he is pre paring for an unsuccessful, misanthropic career, and is likely enough to end his life in a madhouse. It is admitted that a too exclusive study of the knowledge found in books, the knowledge which is aggregated from the experience and thought of other people, may result in loading the mind of the pupil with material which he can not use to advantage.

Excerpt from Zoology and Food Fishes Running along the side of the body is a streak, called by Zoologists the lateral line it is a highly modified structure of the nature of an organ of sensation, and in all probability plays a more important part in the economy of the animal than is at present imagined. Coming now to the head, the large eyes are clearly visible, and midway between these and the tip of the snout there is seen on either side an aperture, which upon close inspection is found to be divided into two by an oblique fold of skin; this is the external nostril and leads into the nasal chamber. There are no true eyelids present, but the skin is produced into a couple of transparent folds, which lie in front of and behind the eye respectively. The only remaining parts in the living animal to be noted within the scope of these pages, are those concerning its respiration. The fish, in common with all living things, plant or' animal, must have air, and as this is held in solution in the water, much as we should hold water in a sponge, the fish gets it by swallowing and squeezing, so to speak, the surrounding medium.

Excerpt from Revision of the Fishes of the Family Liparidae Descriptions - The specific descriptions are written in a uniform manner in order to facilitate comparisons. In the measurements the length is given in millimeters and refers to the distance between the tip of the snout and the tip of the caudal fin. The other measurements are given in tenths Of the length Of the body minus the caudal fin and of the length Of the head. The comparative measurements Of certain parts proved to be of little or no value. Of these some have been included and others omitted. Of those omitted we refer to the length Of the caudal fin, snout to dorsal, snout to vent, pectoral to dorsal, interorbital width and disk to vent. We have omitted some measurements in the species Of one genus and included them in the species of other genera because they proved to be Of greater value. See diagram illustrating the method of taking measurements. The number given after Locality refers to Alba tross stations unless otherwise stated.

Excerpt from The Lantern Fishes The collections which form the subject of the present paper, were made by the Albatross, during the month of September, 1899, on a cruise from San Francisco to the Marquesas Islands and thence to Tahiti of the Society Islands. Frequent hauls were taken with the surface net and the open intermediate net to a depth of 300 fathoms. Fifteen species Of Lantern Fishes were Obtained, five of which are described as new, the others being known variously from Australia, the China Seas, Hawaii, the Pacific Coast of tropical America, or Southern California. One species is known also from the Eastern Atlantic. A very wide distribution is thus shown for the pelagic fishes Of the tropical Pacific.
