Miss Ledger, who has been
spending the past six weeks with
her sister, Mrs. Chapman, of st.
Petersburg, but who tarried a
few days with Mrs. T. j. Owens
on her way home, left today for
Philadelphia. Miss L. relates a
very trying but now amusing &C
cident that befel her and Mr.. and
Mrs. Chapman. They went in a
boat to spend the day at fassa-
grelle. The sail down was love-
ly. At eventide, on their en-
barkatlon, strong wind came
up and the water became so
rough that for safety as well as
to enable MIR. Chapman to bring
his boat home, they took to the
beach, and, dlvesting their feet
Of shoes and stockings and gath
ering up their skirts, they walked
home, several miles distant,
reaching their home at midnight.
Next day the ladies could not
walk, so swollen had become
their ankles by the unaccus-
toned pedestrian labors Of the
night previous. A few days
rest brought them around all
right, and now the thought OF
the grotesqueness of their ap-
pearance as they spattered
through the water on the beach
brings peals of laughter.

Do you cough?
Do your lungs pain you?
Is your throat sore and inhamed?
Do you spit up phlegm?
Does your head ache?--
Is your appetite bad2
Are your lungs delicate?
Are you losing flesh?
Are you pale and thin?
Do you lack stamina?
These symptoms are proof that you
have in your body the seeds of the most
dangerous malady that has ever devas-
tated the earth-consumption. &.
Consumption, the bane OF those who
have been brought up in the old-fash-
toned beliefs that this disease was hered-
itary, that it was fatal, that none could
recover who were once firmly clasped in
its relentless grip.
But now known to be durable, made
SO by the world stirring discoveries OF
that man whose name has been given
to this new system of treatment.
Now known to be preventable and
durable by following and practising his
hygienic teachings.
The new system of treatment will cure
you Of consumption and of all diseases
which can be traced back to weak lungs
as foundation. ~
