EATING FOR HIS LIFE.
Story of On* Man Who Did Not Dig
His Qravt With His Tssth.
In the American Magazine a writer
cites the case of Lulgl Comoro, to
whom he acknowledged his debt of
health.
"Luigi," he says, "was an Italian
nobleman of the middle ages. lie had
money enough and leisure enough so
that Satan found plenty of work for
his Idle bands during his tlrst forty
years. About his fortieth,birthday he
fell sick, and the doctors told him to
make his will, as he could not possibly
live another year.
"Lulgl died at 104 painlessly, 'as one
who passes into a sweet sleep.' in tin
words of liis granddaughter.
"What gave him those extra sixty
four years of life? Not doctors?lie
had nothing to do with them; not med
icine; not. exercise. Lulgl simply stop
l>od eating! He made a careful study
of himself to discover just how little
food he could eat and still fqel well.
Out of this study he soon learned the
valuable truth that 'most men dig their
graves with their teeth.'
"Most men die because they have so
loaded their bodies with excess food
that their organs of elimination have
broken under the strain. Most men
are tired because they are self poison
ed with too much food. All this Luigl
discovered and wrote fn a bo<&fc_xaarierf
the 'Temperate Life.'
"Aside from the fact that I belong to
a family that grows stronger as it
grows older, I owe to Luigl more than
to any one else the good health and
happiness which I enjoy today at thir

' How the Ancients Regarded Iron.
The ancient Egyptians believed that
Iron was the bone of Typhon, the ene
my of Osiris, and for this reason it was
considered impure. No one could make
use of it, even for the most ordinary
requirements of life without polluting
his soul in a way to cause him harm
both on earth and In the other world.
Logioal Conclusion.

"What do you think is the matter?"
"I suppose it Is because 1 am broke."

SPOON8 AND 8PINNERS.
My l)oar Buck:
You wonder whore the spoon gets
its big drug with the fishermen; well,
old top, for trolling and casting, the
old reliable spoon Is probably uioro
genorally used than any other kind
of lure. You can chock this up in
your memory book, it often guts
tho flsh when other lures fail to coax
tho big fins out of tho wot.
Of course the spoon don't look like
any natural bait, nor does It appear to
the beginner as a particularly attrac
tive feed for a hungry fish, but it
does the one thing necessary in the
fishing game, and that is, it attracts
the fish. After you have had a spoon
bent double by an over-zealous fish
trying to inhale It, you will realize
that It Is sure some attractor.
Accidental Discovery of Spoon.
Way back In your A, D. C days, so
piscatorial historians claim, an old
sour-dough was washing his ono spoon
and plate after a repast of Johnny
cake and bacon, when by accident the
spoon flopped into the water and did
a salome down to the bottom. As the
spoon zlg-zagged down through the
water he noticed the quick, sharp
flashes of light ,reflectod from the
bowl of th? spoon, and at the same
time a lake trout, getting the light
flashes, made a lunge {or the spoon,
dulled his toeth on it and beat it.
Thanks to the old "hard-panner" and
his ability to assimilate an idea, we
have the legion of spoon baitB today.
He rescued the spoon, cut off the
bowl, bored a hole in each end, linked
a hook in one end and a line in the
other, and ate fish for supper that
night.
The changes that have been made
In the old original spoon in shape,
size and decorations, runs up into the
hundreds. They are plain, fluted,
grooved, hammered, corrugated, rib
bed, and whatnot, and as long
as they spin around in the wa
ter they got tho fish. You can got
them in gold, silver, nickel, copper,
brass or enamel, and if you tried out
the whole kit, you'd be busy tho rest
of the season without a layoff for
grub.
Great Stuff for Trolling.
For trolling tho spoon hook will
hold its own any time. Iiass, pickerel,
pike and muskio like to give it the
once-over as it glides through the wa
ter shooting its light shafts in all di
rections. It can bo seen for quite
a distance under water and can bo
used either with plain hooks or with a
feathered or buck-tailed treble hook. A
single hook with a minnow, shiner,
frog or pork rind works well with a
spoon.
For bass, a No. 3 tandem Hilde
brandt 611m 'Eli or Standard shape or
a Skinner No. 3 Fluted Spoon
makes a selection that will help All
the stringer, while pickerel and muakle
require a larger sized spoon, say a
No. 6 to 10r for a single spoon, and
No. 6 for the tandem spinner.
For casting you will need a No. 3
single cpoon which you can use with
out any other buit or with an eyed
fly or natural baita. A atrip of pork
rind cut to the shape of a minnow and
used with the No. 3 sp'oon makea a
bait that is a sure enough "killer."
As long as you keep it moving fti
the water, a spoon will turn around
and you have a chance at attracting
the flsh, but leaving it die a alow
death, and merely come through the
water without any action is a loss of
time to you. It's the movement and
the light shafta from the spoon that
attract the flsh, and it's,up to you to
keep the bait moving.
On its way to glory the little old
spoon haa even been copped by the
trout fisherman and on a dull day
a small Colorado spinner can be seen
better than the fly alone. Often when
the trout falls to take the fly on the
aurface, they will give it the "close
up"-if sunk to the depth where they
lie, with a spoon for a helper. Early
In the season when the waters are
high and roily as well as clouded with
mud, the apinner is an asset to the
trout fisherman.
For after-dark fishing, which is the
time the big ones are generally on the
still hunt for feed, the Ptiueger-Tan
dem luminous spinner makes a good
bait. Thia is also fine for moon
light trolling. The luminous spinner
must be exposed to the sunlight be
fore using at night, the same aa the
artificial plugs used for night fishing.
When all other lures fall you can
generally count on getting the flah
If you fall back on the spoon, either
in trolling or casting, and your tackle
box is not complete, old man, unleaa
you are prepared for emergencies with
a selection of single and tandem spoons
and apinners in nickel, brass and cop
per. Just remember this, however,
keep thefa well polished and when you
use them, keep 'em moving.
