"ANGLERS REPORT
FINE FISHING'

At intervals throughout the day
Men sprnted up and down the banks;
Small children padded in the stream
Playing their pretty little pranks
And every here and there one found
Some darling doggie swimming round.
The cursed alder stretched his arms
Athwart the creek to catch ones flies,
And II one tried a fancy cast
A gust OF wind was sure to rise;
But where the pool was clear and bright
The sun shone In with all his might
The water was as cold as ice
/ knew my rubber boots would snagi
My basket caught on every BUSH
Next time I'll take simple bag;
And now i've lost my landing net
That thief will die in prison yet.
Where anglers meet to swap their lies
i've seen enthusiasts who hold
That, as compared with other fish,
Each trout Is worth his weight In gold;
His worth" / have my own ideas about;
AS TO his cost" there's not doubt.

HEALTHFUL CALIFORNIA

The general heahfuness of California is attested by
the report the board of health for March, which
has Just been issued.
The ratio of deaths for the month is exceptionally
low being but little in thousand of population.
striking comparison with this ratio is in the
figures the public institutions of the state There
were S811 inmates of such institutions in March, of
whom hfty-ve died the ratio being IA per thousand
Facts in the report relating to the diseases which
caused the fatalities show especially interesting
features. Consumption leads of death, as
usual but heart disease next the deaths from
the former numbering 222 and from the latter 17S.
the eastern states pneumonia usually takes either first
or place in such statistics but the deaths from
that disease in this state numbered only 10S in March
Cancer seemingly most terrible of all diseases claimed
sixty-six victims In view of all that is known about
the liquor traffic in California it remarkable that
only fourteen deaths charged to alcoholism.
The lead of consumption in the states vital statistics
would reduced greatly at least if it comprised only
citizens of the state In fact the total percentage of
deaths would be likely to fall below the ratio Of one in
a thousand If the figures excluded strangers who
here in advanced stages of disease This applies not
only consumptves but to persons afflicted with heart
disease and some other ailments.
In respect to Southern California alone is widely
in these days the percentage of deaths probably
is smaller than in almost any other section of world
excluding of doomed invads who are attracted
hther by the inimitable climate.

which is yours today but gone to-
morr, ".
L. Thomas quotes Jesus Christ, and
his assertion reminds me of the negro
who was praying in very halting and
uncertain way, when he was admon-
shed-"Here, Sambo, let Jim talk to the
Lord, he's better acquainted" The
Master of true life and the art of living
declared-"Woe unto him that causeth
one of these little ones to offend; it
were better for him that milestone
were hanged about his neck and he
were drowned in the depths Of the sea-"
That the liquor business causes them
to "offend" in word and deed is patent
to any one who knows how our re-
formatories swarm with young life.
Surely L. Thomas is not aware that
out OF every seven boys one becomes
drunkard according to statistics. Either
he does not know or does not care that
of every nine girls one becomes
prostitute-a business which all affirm
can be kept alive only by the use of
intoxcants.
Then the former government stat
istician, Carroll d. Wright, must know
some things which have escaped the
minds of these advocates of liquor
town: viz, that for every dollar re-
ceived as revenue from the traffic
twenty-one' are expended to take care
of the crime, poverty, insanity, etc., re-
sulting from it.
We women who are $50 illogicaP'
have to smile in our sleeves, and with
the prevailing style there is room for a
big smile, at the reasoning of Five
Taxpayers" presumably men, who in
The Herald OF the 2Sth inst. say in sub
stance: Because a man does not pay
taxes in a certain town, therefore he
has no right to work with the better
element of the town to save it from
the domination of the liquor business"
SO the dollar and not character Is
again the test of good citizenship.
| 1 wonder how many of the Christian
Mission workers, Salvation Army people
| and ministers of the city could stand
that test, and yet they are all regarded
as among the best of the people; even
their master, Jesus Christ, would be
put out, for he had not where to lay
his head" However if these thought
less gentlemen will write the names of
those dear to them and indicate which
they are willing to offer on the affairs
to Mammon and inebriety-because
their sons and daughters may not go
free-which boys to be drunkards or
daughters drunkards' wives, it will
enable us to think that they have
counted the cost and are sincere. One
who can't vote, E. P. B.

THE INCOMPATIBLE ROUND OAK HEAT
ING STOVE.

| When you think of heating stoves
you naturally think of the famous,
genuine Round Oak, made in Dowagi-
&C, Mich. Almost everybody knows it,
for 1T keeps millions of people warm
and comfortable in cold-weather times
by doing its work perfectly. 1t may
be new to you, and If this is true, then
the logical reasons why the Round
Oak Is the best and most satisfactory
stove may prove instructive and we
hope interesting. The invention OF
the genuine Round Oak marked the
change In heating stoves from crudity
to perfection, and we wish to say, right
on the start, that no other stove has
ever equaled the Round Oak in burn
lug any kind of fuel with economy,
success and satisfaction to the user.
For over 80 years the Round Oak has
led, in sales and popularity, the null
titude of heating stoves. Starting in
very small way over "a years ago, it
grew rapidly until now it is sold from
the Atlantic to the Pacific. 1t was
first made as wood stove and sold
only in the immediate vicinity of its
manufacture. Its merits were at once
recognized and it's reputation began to
extend. 1t soon reached the soft-coal
fields Of Illinois, and the coal fixture
was invented and added. 1t immedi-
ately took first place, revolutionizing
the heating-Stove trade in the btu
minous coal sections. Its success with
soft coal created demand for it's use
as hard-coal burner. The magazine
was added and was so successful that
1t was then guaranteed to burn any
kind of fuel with perfect success. 1t
fulfilled every promise, it satisfied
every user, it excelled all others. Its
sale constantly increased until now
the capacity Of the shops, covering Is
acres and giving constant employment
to over 600 skilled workmen, is taxed
to meet the ever-increasing demand.
This phenomenal success is due entire
ly to its faultless construction, perfect
workmanship in fitting and high quail
tty of material used. The one great
essential necessity in a heating stove
is perfect control of the fire. Unless
stove is properly fitted, made alb
solutely air tight and constructed to
resist the effects Of expansion and
contraction, and remain tight, control
of the fire is lost, and fuel and heat
are wasted. A. H. Mcmahon sells the
Round Oak.

THE ONE REMEDY PARTICULARLY
SUITED FOR THE MOST COMMON FEM
NINE ILLS.
To women who suffer DR. Williams
Pink Pills are worth their weight in
gold. At special periods woman
needs medicine to regulate her blood.
supply or her life will be a round of
pain and suffering. DR. Williams Pink
Pills are absolutely the finest medicine
that ever woman took. They actual
ly make new blood. They are good for
men too-but they are good in a
special way for women.
cit was three years ago last spring
that my health failed me-" says Mrs
Arthur Conklin, of No. Coldwater
street, Battle Creek, Mich. 81 Suf-
fered from leucorrhGa and other trou-
bles that, L presume, were caused by
the weakness it produced. l had sink
ing spells, nervous headaches, was
weak and exhausted all the time and
looked like walking skeleton.
"My back and limbs would ache al
most continually and there were days
when [ was absolutely helpless from
sick headache. | tried one doctor aft
er another but cannot say that they
helped me at all. My liver was slug.
gish and l was troubled some with
constipation.
"One day physician who has now
retired from practice met my husband
on the street and inquired about my
health. He advised my husband to
get some Of DR. Williams Pink Pills
for me, said they were a good medi-
cine, better for my trouble than he
could put up. l took six boxes and was
entirely cured. AS soon as the leucor-
rhna was cured the headaches and
other pains stopped. l am entirely
we'll now, but intend to continue to
use DR. Williams Pink Pills as spring
tOnic.''
Mrs Conklin permits the publication
of her statement in the hope and be-
lief that it will help suffering women
to find the remedy that will cure them.
And she is right. DR. Williams Pink
Pills are the greatest cure there is for
the common ailments of men and
wOmen-for the weakness and back
aches Of Anamia, the heavinesS and
distress of Indigestion, the pains and
aches of Rheumatism, Sciatica and
Neuralgia; the misery of Spinal Weak
ness and the ill-health that follows
any disturbance Of regularity in the
blood-supply. All these ailments are
caused by bad blood, and DR. Williams
Pink Pills actually make new blood.
They don't bother with mere Symp-
toms. They strike straight at the
common root of disease. But,O course,
you must get the genuine pills. Sub
stituteS and limitations never cured
anybody. The genuine DR. Williams
Pink Pills are sold by all druggists, or
by the DR. Williams Medicine Co.,
Schenectady, N. Y.
