WHY GRIP lS DANGEROUS.

1t requires a good tonic laxative to
keep the body of the patient as strong
as possible to counteract the effect OF
the poisons created by the grip bacil-
lus. An expectorant tonic with some
laxative qualities IS the safest REM
edy. Such is Peruna.
Mrs. Gentry Gates, 8219 First Ave.
East Lake. Ala, writes: II had
bad case of grip. tried Peruna and
1t cured me. l can safely say 1t is
fine medicine"
Mr.. George E. Law. 1919 N. Frank

satisfied that Peruna Is a wonderful
remedy for grip. and I do most heart-
lily endorse and recommend It."

and curiews arc crying down the

the Shetlands Ultima Thule, tho
farthest land. tho end OF the world.
Rolling seas. sweeping winds. solitary
hills. great stretches Of moorland. and
inside. little warm toons, where the
folk cling to one another.
For one another is all those who
stay at homo TO have 10 cling 10. The
great world outside claims many OF
them. for the islands can scarcely sup
port $4,000 souls; other hearths and
other lands know them. Three hun
dred Of them are captaining vessels.
and many moro are sailing before the
mast. for tho deep sea draws them as
it did their forbears a thousand years
ago. Many OF those that stay nj home

stay on the old rock" as tho Shet-
landers call their home.

Natives OF South Pacific island Have
Their Own Method Of Gathering
Food From Sea.

The natives OF Rarotonga. one OF the
Islands I'm the South Pacific ocean.
have q singular method Of catching
hsh In which the whole community
takes part. On the shore OF tho Is
land there are many long, narrow
lagoons. each lying between a beach
and an outer reef OF coral, that usu-
ally swarm with fish. The natives
choose one OF these stretches of shall
low water for the fish drive, and
close all breaks In the reef by lay.
Ing nets across them or building up
rough barriers with pieces Of coral.
When they have done that. six or
seven hundred men. women and chill
dren wade into one end OF the lagoon
carrying little. plated fiber bags filled
with utu nut. In most cases the wa.
ter In about three feet deep. and no.
where more than four feet; so the na.
tives march slowly up the lagoon, trail.
ing behind them the bags of utu nut.
As this substance Ii wet Il forms a pc.
culiar narcotic. which II diffuses
through the water. The process is
called poisoning the lagoon"
Half an hour IL allowed for the
poison" 20 spread. and at the end
OF that time all the fish are under
the influence Of the drug. and are
swimming about in a confused and
aimless manner. The natives, armed
with long, pronged spears. form line
that reaches from side 90 side of the
lagoon. and march along shouting
splashing. and driving the intoxicated
nsh before them. When the fish are
all collected at the farther end OF the
lagoon. the natives begin to cry. Eth
hu-hu-u-u!" and the barbed spears fly
In all directions. The natives are very
dexterous with the spears. and the fish
are 90 sluggish, owing to the effects
or the utu nut. that very few Of them
escape.
Many Of the poisoned" fish seek the
shelter OF the coral reef and hide in
the crevices: and 80 some Of the na-
ttves "fsh" the reef They put on
glass goggles and sink beneath the
water. where they remain submerged
for one or two minutes. They feel
about among the coral for the listless

fishermen usually make the biggest
catches; but the merry men In the
