FiNhlnK in Floritln.
The exodus of angling tourists to
southern waters*, partfcularyl to those
of Florida, does not occur until about
the middle of January; the few know
ing ones, however, who annually go to
that section do so much earlier, or if
restricted in time or pocket, defer their
visit until April and remain, as a rule,
(luring the month of May. They have
found that in the months of October
and November and in those of the early
spring the best results for the rod will
be the rule and the climatic conditions
more propitious for enjoyment. I have
never found the temperature oppressive
during these months, even in southern
Florida, or on the coast, of Texas, or
anywhere along the gulf from Key
West to the Rio Grande. In fact, near
ly every day a refreshing southeast
trade wind sets in early in the mornijig
and does not die out. until twilight,
with the resultant lessening ; of .the
temperature of the night.—Outing.

Old Diver Mended Leak in Holyoke
Dam and Kept His Word,
But Lost His Life.
Last of all they told the story of
old Capt. Colliding and the Holy
oke dam—a story known to every
diver, relates a writer in Cen
tury. It seems there was a leak
|in this .(fain, and tl?$ water v$uT
JfThdniljg through with so §iron^.
"suction1 tfiat;; it seemed- certain
death for a diver to go near
enough to stop the leak. Yet it
JYfi extremely important that the
leak be stopped—in fact, the
saving of the dam depended on it.
So Capt. Colliding, who was in
charge of the job, induced one of
his divers to go down, and re
luctantly the man put on his suit,
hut insisted on having an extra
rope, and a very strong one, tied
around his waist.
“What’s that for?” asked Conk
ling.
“That's to help got nay body out
if the life line breaks,” said the
diver.
“Go on and do your work,” re
plied Conkling, who had little use
for sentiment.
It happened exactly as the diver
feared. He was drawn into tin?
suction of the hole and when they
tried to pull him up both hose and
life line parted and he was
drowned, but they managed to res
cue his body with the heavy liue,
just as he had planned.
Then Conkling called for an
other diver, but not one respond
ed. They said they weren’t that
kind of fools.
“All right,” said tlfc captain* ip
his businesslike way, “then I’ll
go down myself and stop that
hole.” And he called the men to
dress him.
At this time Capt. Conkling was
75 years old. and had retired long
since fro'fia active diving. But he
was as strong as a horse still, and
no man had ever questioned his
courage. In vain they tried to dis
suade him. “i’ll stop that hole,”
said he, “and I don’t want any ex
tra rope, either.”
He kept his word. He went
down and he stopped the hole, but
it was with his dead body, and to
day somewhere in the Holyoke
dam lie the bones of brave old
Capt. Conkling, incased in full
(living dress, helmet and hose and
life line, buried in that mass of
masonry. No man ever dared go
down after his body.

“The all-dreaded thunder-stone”
Iras been- so very seldom seen of

regarded by the vulgar as almost

The Preacher's Evidence.
Roland, 111., June 27.—Diabetes has so tong
been looked upon as an incurable form of
Kidney Disease that a ?ure cure for it must
rank as one of the most valuable medical
discoveries of the age. And every day brings
forth lresh evidence that Dodd's Kidney
Pills will cure Diabetes. Important evidence
in their favor is given by Rev. Thos. B. Nor
man, the well-known Baptist minister here.
Mr Norman say»:
”1 had all the symptoms of a bad case of
Diabetes and received so much bcnelit from
the use of Dodd’s Kidney Pills that I cheer
fully recommend them to anyone suffering
from that dread d:-ea<e. Dodd’s Kidney
Pills will cure the worst form of Diabetes.”
Dodd's Kidney Pills always cure Diabetes,
one of the final stages of Kidney Disease.
All the earlier stages, from Backache to
Rheumatism, are naturally much more eas
ily cured by the same remedy.

WHY HOT WEATHER MAKES WOMEN WOOS.
A Well Known Canadian Lady Sends
Letter of Endorsement to Pe-ru-na.
Miss Mary Burns, 28 Spring Garden
Road, Halifax, N. S., writes: “Having
used Peruna for indigestion and stomach
trouble and to build up a broken down
system with the very best results. I am
pleased to state my experience with this
excellent medicine. I had been troubled
with stomach trouble and poor digestion
for some years, and although I tried
many remedies and dieting, nothing
seemed to restore my health until I used
Peruna. In three months I had entirely
recovered my health and strength.”—
Mary Burns.
Suggestions by Dr. Hartman—How
to Combat the Nervous Depression
Incident tp Warm Weather.
Nervousness Is very common among
women. Ttyia,canditton.isali,>es.tpariaemic
nerve centers. The nerve centers are
the reservoir for nerve vitality. ’These
centers become blbodless for the4 want
of proper nutrition. '**’»■•
■TWs‘condHibn-i« « special ^noticeable
during the wai^n season. Every sum
mer an arm-y of invaljjds are produced as
a direct result of weak nervous s>jtems.
This could easily be overcoj»eJ5y the
use of Peruna. Peruna strikes at the
root of the trouble by.correcting the
digestion. Perfect digestion furnishes
increased nutrition for the nerve centers.
Perfectly digested food gives these reser
voirs of life £ vitality which creates
strong, steady nerves, and in this man
ner fortifies and nourishes life.
Miss Blanche Grey, a prominent young
society woman of Memphls^Tenn., in a
recent letter from 174 Alabama street,
writes: “To a society woman whose
nervous force is often taxed to the utmost
from lack of rest and irregular meals,
/ know of nothing which Is of so much
benefit as Peruna. I took It a few
months ago when I felt my strength
giving way. and it soon made Itself
manifest In giving me new strength
and health. ”—Miss Blanche Orey.
Pe-ru-na Contains no Narcotics.
One reason why Peruna has found
permanent use in so many homes is that
it contains no narcotic of any kind. Pe
runa is perfectly harmless. It can be
used any length of time without acquir
ing a drug habit. Peruna does not pro
duce temporary results. It is perma
nent in its effect.
It has no bad effect upon the system,
and gradually eliminates catarrh by
removing the cause of catarrh. There
are a multitude of homes where Peruna
has been used off and on for twenty
years. Such a thing could not be possi
ble If Peruna contained any drugs of a
narcotic nature.
At this season of the year we are
peculiarly liable to inflammations of the
stomach and bowels. It is the part of
wisdom to learn how to cut them short
and in the easiest and quickest manner.
Peruna does this by its peculiar power
over all forms of catarrhal troubles.
