Trolling For Tarpon.
It is not easy to hook n tarpon while
trolling, f.?r his month is very hard,
says Julian A. IHinock in Country IJfo
In America, ami much skill may doubtless
here be shown. In the playing of
the fish the work isabout the same as in
still Ashing save that more care must be
used, as iho hook is probably not firmly
imbedded. Anohl fisherman (old me that
lie liked to he sure of his fish and so
preferred still fishing, hut to my mind
it is one of the objections to that method.
Another and stronger objection is
the disturbance of my feelings In thinking
that I am pulling against a fish's
' in'ards." If the lino does break the
chance of the victim's being able to
fren himself from llin liool.- iu nmlilnm.
atienl, vi-lillo in trolling it. is the work ?
of a minute after the strain is off the <
line until a sore mouth is the only <<
symptom remaining.

Starving to Death.
Because her stomach was so weakned
by useless drugging that she
ould not eat, Mrs. Mary II, Walters,
>t. Clair St., Columbus, ()., was liter.1
ly starving to death. She writes:
'My stomach was so weak from useess
drugs that I could not eat, and
lervcs so wrecked that I could not
lcen; and not before I was given up
o die was T induced to try Electric
litters; with the wonderful result
hat improvement began at once, and
complete cure followed." Best

Ban I bee, or Baalbek, is the name
riven :i ruined city lying in ancient
'oole-Syrin, forty-tive miles northwest
>f Damascus. There is nothing particilarly
remarkahle about a ruined city
icing found in (lie locality mentioned,
>ut the size of the blocks of stone used
?y the ancient builders of this particilar
city is something that has puzzled
he modern engineers since the day
vhen Hnalhc? was tlrst made the Meca
of the oriental traveler. There are
tnmouse stones on every side of the
-jjdtor to this ancient pile of ruins, hut
he most remarkable blocks?said
o be the lafftKet ever used in the eoutruction
of a bmld'rii^ dU^ I'DtV wall
nick of the temple of Hani. These imnense
stones are respectively sixtyour,
sixty-three and sixty-two feet in
imgtli and each is thirteen feet in
hiekness, but the most wonderful
hing in connection with them is the
act that they are at a place in the
rail twenty-five feet from the ground,
low these Immense blocks of granite
rere ever raised to such a height is a
inestion that has never yet been nu- i
wored.

A Kansas City woman teJIs this stoy
on her husband to demonstrate the '
uferiority of the masculine mind. One
norning us her husband was sitting
town to the breakfast table he glanced
it the dining room clock and said,
'Wo must bo later than usual this
Homing." "Don't place too much conidenco
in that clock. It stopped at 5
>'clock this morning, and I just set it
joing by guess." replied the good
vile.
"Were you up at 5 o'clock?" asked
he husband.
"Of course not."
"What time did you say the clock
itopped?"
"At 3."
"If you weren't up at 3," replied the
nan, with a puzzled look, "how in
hunder do you know when the clock
itopped?" I
"Why, dear, it stayed stopped," was
he reply. The man did not say anither

GOOD NEWS. Many
Union Readers Have
Heard It and Profited
Thereby^ <
"Good ncwu travels fast," and the J
thousands of had back sufferers in
Union aro^elud to learn that prompt {
relief is within their reach. Many n
lame, weak and aching back is bad no
more, thanks to Dunn's Kidney Pills.
People arc telling tho good news of
their experience with the Old (Quaker t
I Remedy. Here is an examule worth f
rending:
A. (J. Coin, of Chester, S. O., proprietor
of general store, has used Dunn's ^
Kidney Pills and recommends as fol- .
! lows: "Dunn's Kidney Fills arc eerI
tainly a fine remedy. I used them for
my kidneys and back. The kidney se:
crolions were out of sorts, very dark c
i and full of sediment and I suffered a li
: great deal from backache. Since tnk!
ing the remedy my backache has left
! me and my back is much stronger. _
The secretions have regained their j
natural color and are free from sedi- *
meat. These beneficial results have
convinced me that Doan's Kidney |
Fills are one of the best kidney remedies
on the market and I am pleased 1
to be able to endorse them." 1:

At first the watch was about the size i
of a dessert plate. It lmd weights and
s was used as n "pocket clock." The
earliest known use of the modern name i
occurs in the record of 15."?2, which j
mentions that Edward VI. had "one .
lurum or watch of iron, the case l?oing '
likewise of Iron gilt, with two plum- t
mots of lend." The first watches may c
readily be supposed to have been of >
rude execution. The first great improvement.
the substitution of springs
for weights, was in 1550. The earliest
springs were not coiled, but only
straight pieces of steel. Early watches,
had only one hand, and, being wound r
up twice a day. they could not be ox- <
pel ted to keep time nearer than fifteen i
or twenty minutes in the twelve hours.
The dial., were of silver or brass. The
cases had no crystals, last opened at
the back and front and were lour or *
five i.i'-hes i.i diameter. A plain watch
cost the oquivsdont of .Sl.OtiO in our currency.
and after one was ordered it
took a year to make it.
The Breath of Life.
It's a significant fact that the
strongest, animal of its size, the gorilla.
also has the largest lungs. Power- A
ful lungs means powerful creatures.
How to keep the breathing organs
right should life man's chiefest study, j
I.ike thousands of others, Mrs. Ora A.
Stephens, of Port Williams, O., lias
learned how to do this. She writes: t
"Three bottles of Dr. King's New Discovery
stopped my cough of two years
and cured me of what my friends ^
thought consumption. Oh, its grand
for throat and lung troubles." Guar- x

Arroiv Shield*. _
The other day 1 saw a little, modern
book, in a green cover, on a table In
a drawing ro. in. I picked It up. It "V
was about the early French in Canada,
uuil uiy eye fell on a copy of a drawlug
by their leader, Cliampliu, or Chainplain.
The scene represented was an
atlnck by the native allies of the ^
French, the Algouquins, on a i'ort held
by Iroquois. The Algouquins advanced
through showers of arrows under . *
shields nearly as tall as themselves, |
like doors with rounded tops. Now, i
' you may see exactly the same sort of
shields in a picture of a lion hunt, inlaid
in gold and silver, on the bronze
blade of a dagger found by Dr. Seliliclniinn
in "the grave of Agamemnon."
These monstrous Mycenaean shields
cause much discussion among the learned.
Why were they so huge? The Algouquins
used the very same shields,
liung from their nocks, and the reason
was the same?their battles were battles
of archers, and nobody can oarrv ?.

Work and Play.
f wages for golf were six dollars a week
And hours were from dawn until dark.
Vould people with money be looking for
health
By hatting the balls in the park?
t It were employment, like shoveling
snow
Or some common, everyday trade.
Yould children of fashion, to pass away
time.
With caddies go out on parade?
f climbing up mountains were aught else
than Bport
And worklngmcn had it to do,
Vould tourists be hiking their way up
the sides
For the sake of the walk and the view?
Vould poor, puffing pilgrims bo climbing
Pike's peak
Or seeking the Matterhorn's dome
f It were regarded like mowing the luwn
Or splitting the kindling at home?
f platforms for horses were on an Incline
And moved as the dancers tripped by,
..Ike treadmills are turned as tho horses
advance,
Thus causing the buzzsaw to fly,
Vould dancing *be then with the young
folks a hit,
Or would they pay money to go
Vhen labor so useful was being performed
By means of the light, airy toe?
'o keep people happy while making them
work
There must be, I'm certain, a way,
ind here's tho solution ? It's simple
enough?
To make them believe It is play,
f shingling the hencoop could be made a
sport
Or digging canals be a game,
Ve'd have the earth fixed in a year and
a half
So nice It would most do to frame.

Her Chiefest Charm.
She's a charming little lady,
And she dances like a leaf
Whirling through the woodlands shady
In tho autumn season brief.
But the cutest thing about her?
It's the chlefest, too, I judge
(Though I don't a minute doubt her)?
Is she makes
nice
fudge.
