The labyrinthdom, huge creature

which lived in the early period of our

weitz, Hungary. All species of this
gigantic frog are now extinct, and
are now known to naturalists only
through the Investigations of geolo-
glsts, who have often found parts of
entire fossils of the monster in strata
OF the triassic portion of the meso.

Sick men and women are met on every
hand, here and across the continent OF
Europe, scattered up and down the sun
ny shores of the Mediterranean, steam
ing across the ocean in search of rest and
health.
But where one can afford the luxury Of
such recreation there are hundreds who
work, work, work all summer.
Those who work too many hours soon
lose their only wealth-ther health.
The nervous system and the brain do
not get rest enough; exhaustion and ex-
citability gradually take the place of
love of work. Sound sleep deserts, their
appetite fails, Indigestion troubles and
they are sick. Thentis that they should
take the remedy that makes the people
well. For Paine's celery compound
supplies the system with nerve and brain
food, and sustains the vital force and
energy 1t takes away the drowsness
and nervous headache which result from
protracted work coupled with anxiety
Paine's celery compound lays the found
alton of health by making sound sleep
possible. Itsoothes and quiets the nerves
when they are working confusedly. 1t
tones up the digestive organs.
One of the most enterprising express
men in Boston, Mr. H. Seaver, Of so
Warren ST., Roxbury, Mass, who OWNS
an express business running from Bos-
ton to Roxbury and the Highlands, says
ION the recommendation of friend |

for my family. We have used it for a
family medicine, and in every case it has
proved cure We will use it and rec
ommend it to all as long as it proves to
be such an all-curing remedy. The friend
mentioned is a commercial traveller, and
was cured of dyspepsia by using three
bottles of Paine's celery compound, and
felt in duty bound to recommend it."
In these hot days OF hot and pouring
sun rays all those who are obliged to
labor and who feel the enervating effects
Of the summer should take Paines celery

SUMMER TRAVEL LIGHT.

A Rutland dispatch announces
that the railroads centering there
the Bennington & Rutland, Central
Vermont and Delaware & Hudson
complain that summer travel is very
light and has not been so poor for
many years. The season opened
well, but the beginning ofthe Worlds
Fair was the signal for a decided let
up in so.called summer resort busi-
ness, and no improvement is looked
for this season. The Worlds Fair
and the financial stringency are held
responsible for this falling off in rail-
road receipts from summer tourists.
1t is but natural that the exposition
at Chicago should make a great
change in summer plans, and it is
possible also that the closeness ofthe
money market is keeping many peo-
pie at home who in ordinary seasons
would travel. 1t is claimed that Yer
mont will be some $250,oO0 poorer
by reason Of this drop in summer
travel.
Judging from the personals" in
our town correspondence from week
to week, there has not seemed to be
much of decrease in the influx of
summer visitors so faras this section
Of the state is concerned.

PUGET SOUND FISH STORIES.

Puget Sound swarms with fish.
Wonderful stories are told of them.
SO plentiful are the salmon that dur
ing the season when they are run
ming up the streams it is said they
will rush up brook SO thickly as
to wedge together and form a bridge
that one can walk across. In Jump
ing the falls Of small creeks they often
lacerate themselves terribly on sharp
rocks. Salmon is the favorte fish of
this country. Even the ladies like
them. One old fisherman down on
the wharf told how lady up town
had pet salmon. 1t stayed in a
certain little cove. During the rainy
season the lady would come each
day to feed it with bread. When
she would start back it would swim
up the watery streets and follow her
home, then swim down again to its
little cove.
Very queer fish are caught in these
waters. One kind is called candles.
1t is dried and packed in boxes like
candles. Weare told that the fisher
men use them to light their homes,
and that at one time all the boats on
the Sound used them instead of
sperm-oil lamps. BY putting the
heads of the fish downward in a can
dle-stick and lighting the tail, which,
in conjunction with the backbone,
acts as wick, it burns like a candle.
They eat this fish, and when cook
ing it is so fat it fries ITSELF Chica-
