Dr. r. Robbins. Muskogee. l. T.. writes:
"Peruna is the best medicine l know OF
for coughs and to strengthen weak stomach

Only the weak need tonic. People are
never weak except from some good cause.
One of the obscure causes Of weakness and
the one oitenest overlooked is catarrh-
Catarrh infames the mucous membrane
and causes the blood plasma to escape
through the mucous membrane in the form
Of mucous. This discharge OF mucous is the
same as the loss of blood. It produces
weakness.
Pcruna stops the catarrh and prevents

the discharge OF mucous. This is why
Peruna is called a tonic. Peruna does not
give strength by stimulating the nervous
system little.
II gives strength by preserving tho
mucous membranes against leakage.
1t gives strength by converting the blood
fluids and preventing their draining away
in mucons discharges.
Constant splitting, and blowing the noso
will finally produce extreme weakness from
the loss OF mucous.

factory results from the use of Peruna.

HARPOONiNG A TARPON.
An Exciting sport That Demands
Coolness and DexteYity.


The harpoon is cast. There is a
crash I'm the water and big wave rolls

The line Is seized loosely and paid

tear the flesh; 1t will kink and squirm

til the boat is. in rapid motion. AS the
tarpon feels the strain a gyrafing,
glistening. silvery mass hurls itself six
or eight feet clear of the water.
The sight of the skiff gives him new
life. His next dash carries him
through afnarrow channel and you lose
line to him. In making a sharp turn
your skiff grounds on an oyster bar.
BY the time you are again afloat you
have out nearly 300 feet of lire, with
not a dozen coils left. But the boat
is soon under headway, the boatman
pushing frantically, and the stretching
of the line helps. You have taken up
the tarpon's gait, his speed slackens;
once more you recover line and again

Draw in. asimuch breath as you con-
veniently can,. then count as long as
possible in a slow and audible voice
withouttdrawing in more breath. The
numbert Of seconds must be carefully
noted. In a ,consumptive the time does
not exceed ten and Is frequently
less than six seconds; in pleurisy and
pneumonia it ranges from nine to four
seconds. When the lungs are sound
the time will range as high as from
twenty to, thirty 1--we ,seconds. To ex-
pand the lungs go into the air, stand
erect, thpow back thc,hea and shoul-
ders andb draw in the air through the
nostrils tas much as possible.
