FiBhsrman's Luck.

Shocking of fishing, "dshermen's luck" lucky fishermen" etc, what does it all mean anyhow? To say a man Is d lucky fisherman is merely to admit his superiority as d fisherman over other fishermen. The fish are ln the water. We all have the same chance to get them, yet some lucky fisher men" always come home with their fish boxes full and the other fellow gets nothing. In the parlouCe of the fisherman. tue word Tuck" really means G,uowledge." The lucky fish ermau," you will find, knows the rock holes where the grouper turks; he knows the channels tn and about the patches and passes where the amber jacks and barracuda live; he knows where and how to fud and capture the silver mullet for bait; he knows how to bait his hooks for different fish as occasion may require; he knows the style of hook tp usc for every kind of fish: he is a judge og what style of Qshlug to do under certain conditions of wind and weather, and, above alL he Is uutirug u his efforts to use all of his Knowledge when he is out for dsh.-AIiami .FnJ Record

value of Fresh Air.

A millionaire with a family of chill

ing them up to appreciate nature, al
though they are surrounded by luxury
At his summer home he has a number
of tents fitted out as sleeping quarters.
and in them the family passes all hut
the rainy nights of the summer. 1t is an
assured fact that consumption will give
that family wide berth, for those who
become accustomed to plenty of air in
the summer are never willing to sleep in
heated or stuffy rooms in the winter.
The greatest luxury, to my way Of
thinking, is a dressing room that enables
one to sleep in a room where fresh air
freely circulates, no matter how low the
mercury drops. With plenty of warm
bed covers, the room may he as cold as
the outside world and one sleeps all the
better, provided the air is fresh But.
dressing in cold ROOF is another mat
ter, and here is where heated dressing
room becomes a necessity. 1t would be
possible to many woman who now

luxury that does not so nearly affect
