a days sport on the Looking Glass river.

in the big fish or the exhilarating qualities
of the tanglefoot to be had in those days,

power. A common threshing engine ham
dies it easily, and the machine seems to
make no fuss at all in grinding up the
"black heads" the hardest kind of stone,
eight and ten inches in diameter. 1t will
not be long before Caro- streets will feel the
beneficial result of this Improvement
