period of seven years, and to the writer she
stated the following:
my head and nose would stop up. My nos
trils would clog nrst on one side and then on

noises in my ears. My eyes were weak and
watery could feel the mucus dropping into
my throat. 1 was constantly hawking and

"a dry, hacking cough set in. which at times
was SO violent that my throat would become 30
raw and sore that l could hardly swallow.
SHARP pains would shoot through my chest

nausea in my stomach. Night sweats were
added to my other troubles and weakened me

LIVE BAIT FOR FISHERMEN,

Steel Clad MinnOw With His Tall Free Is
the Latest Device.
American Angler.l
A Cincinnati inventor has made applica-
tion for patent on perforated armor in
which to inclose live minnow, with only
his tail exposed temptingly to the view of
the anglers guest. The metal case is pro-
vided with hinges, SO that it may be opened
and shut to receive and inclose the live bait
and also with set of revolving spinners at
tached thereto, which rotate when the
spoon is drawn along. The metal case may
be painted and shaped to resemble bait
fish, while the holes in it permit the game
to scent and sight the tidbit within. One
objection, however, occurs to us: the fish is
liable to get dizzy and die of coma.
