Many shipwrecks on Labrador.

Owing to the vanguard of rocky islands
strung out along this coast, harbors are
numerous-so numerous that q quaint
western man, the only passenger besides
myself who ventured on the mailboat this
cruise, remarked that if harbors were only
worth cent apiece Labrador would be
one of the richest countries in the world.
But in spite of these many shelters rocks
and ice arc so fatal to shipping on this
coast that the mailboat rarely returns
from "a trip without bringing in some
shipwrecked crew. After one storm 300
shipwrccked sailors were transferred by
her at Battle Harbor to the larger vessel
which plies between there and St. Johns.
On our trip we picked up the crew Of a
stanch English vessel whose captain had
in entering one of the tickles to choose be-
tween ice and rocks and so ran her on the
latter. When we entered n harbor, our
mate always took soundings, but before
we let go the aschor our captain would
sing out, 'Any timber, Mr.. Parsons" If
the mate said Yes" it meant that some
vessel had left its poor old ribs on the
rocky bottom, and we must drift on and
sound again.-Gustav Kobbe in ST. Mich
olas.

THE CAPTAINS STORY.
He Tells How He Was Cured Of Indigestion
and Liver Complaint; Also How His Child
Was Cured Of Scroiula.

About eight years ago began to have
trouble with my stomach. l felt faint,
gnawing, indescribable sensation which
gradually grew worse. About four years
ago consulted several physicians in this
State and in Connecticut, and they told
me it was liver trouble.
/ was treated by several physicians in
this State and received no benefit except
during the treatment I haabusiness In
the state Of Connecticut, and was treated
there with no better result.
About the latter part of 1893 com
menced taking Rodolf's New Medical Dis
covery, and before | had finished one bot
tie began to be relieved Of the trouble IN
my stomach. After taking three bottles
l was entirely relieved of my trouble and
have continued so until the present time.
I believe Rodolf's New Medical Discov-
cry cured me and would recommend 1t
to all who are troubled as | was.
further state that l have child two
years and half old, and that he was
troubled with Scrofula humor before he
was one year old. About year ago he
had bunch come on the side OF his face
and we had it lanced. About that time
we began to give him Rodolfs Discovery
and Cream Emulsion, and in a short
time the sore began to heal and dry up,
and now he is entirely cured of his humor
and his face is perfectly smooth and clear
and shows no signs of humor whatever.
believe the Rodolf Remedies are the best
family medicines l ever used in my
family. Yours truly,
Capt W. S. Wentworth.

He had been away from his home town

Now he had come again, and as he wan

1t made him homesick to wander about
seeking the things Of his childhood and
boyhood days and finding them not.
But he found Mamie Smith and went
10 her as tired child goes to its mother.
She was kinder than of yore, and she was
really glad to soc him. And hef Well,
