No one knows better than DR.. Hart
man how much the women suffer with
diseases peculiar TO their sex. No one
knows better than he does how many
Of them suffer with such diseases.
Patiently, hopefully, wearily, and often
silently, they eke out a miserable exist
ence, year after year.
No martyr in poetry or heroine in
romance makes more touching appeal
to human sympathy than the woman
burdcned with the cares OF family
trying TO carry the extra load OF some
tormenting and ever present female
disease.
Or. Hartman's sympathy for such is
unbounded, and his willingness IL help
them limited only 70 his power.

with a G-ounce pole ana small hook

.Gottschalk, assisted by Or. F. J.. Ham

Can the followers OF Isaak Walton
bedt this? II they can they must pro-
duce the evidence TO the fish editor"
IL was while the latter, thinking OF a
proposed trip TO ST. Georges, Del, ON
the canal previously named, tomorrow,
had his thoughts interrupted by the
exclamation, Say how's this for "a
record catch2"
Looking up. the aforesaid FISH editor
beheld the three gentlemen named their
faces illumed with smiles and Dr.
lGottschalk proudly holding forth a
large market basket
"What do YOU mean?" inquired the
aforesaid "nsh editor"
"Oh, we have a good item for you,
replied one OF the trio. 1--WE were down
along tho canal to-day. fishing for
perch. sunfsh and catfish DR. Colts
chalk suddenly startled us by shouting
that "a whale was attempting to pull
him overheard. We Immediately be-
came interested. and a glance at the
light pole used by Dr. Gottschali. bent
almost double, brought us to a realiza-
tion that it was "a fish of greater pro-
lportion than a perch or sunfish. on the
other end OF the line
aNtN IN IL. a. "a
we decided TO land that fish. Deciding
that the best thing to do would be 20
lplay out the creature, we commenced
playing and It was only after an
hours struggle that we succeeded in
bringing the fish TO the surface. One
glance at him made as double our i'm
tention Of landing him. Finally DR.
lGottschall1, with q mighty pull brought
him 20 the surface. Then DIR. Hamil-
ton forced a stick into the fish's mouth
and with a hammer swinging move
lment, landed the carp out on tn,
bank"
During the narrative the 'flsh editor
was an attention and when the end oil
the story came he remarked. "Well
that's a pretty good account, but I'm
from MissouV. you know"
IL didn't take the physicians long 10
satisfy the curiosity OF the Allssourior
co. DIT. Gottschalk removed the Old
from the basket and drew forth from
Il the fish. which he placed on tbs
desk. 1t certainly was a beauty, and
the scribe. who at every opportmit,
wends his way 20 some stream and
there idles away several hours bob
bing for minnows. offered a silent wisl
that tomorrow would approach so thaI
he could so TO Kirl1wood and outdl
the physicians by landing a larger cam
lthan the one captured yesterday. Ant
iet Il be said that the "fsh editor &C

Putting all jokes aside. however. tn
catch made by the physicians and Nj
Saft was a remarkable one, when IN
weight OF the pole and the size OF th
hook used is considered. The fish whic
was viewed by the residents Of Della
lware City, where the Chester tri
boarded a car for this city, was ac
knowledged by them to be the larges
lever taken from the canal and tn
IChesterlans were congratulated on al
sides for their successful catch.
