Guests Given Outing

Last Wednesday, guests of the
Seminole hotel were given an outing
by the management, which took the
| form of a trip to the Myakka river
and a day spent in fishing. An early
start was made, and after humping
over the rough road to their destina-
ton, the party camped across the
| Myakka bridge, and everyone started
to fish for the many members of the
| finny tribe that are usually to be
caught in this stream. 'Tis reported
that all We're successful in catching
some fish, and some of the party
claim they caught some of new
tribe, which they said were khitties
but it's suspected and even assert
| ed that they were nothing more or
less than regular old catfish. Any
way, the noon hour was not long in
coming, and everyone did Justice
even more than justice some of them
did-to the spread that was furnished
by the hotel Mrs. Sheffield personally
experimenting the preparation and
serving of the dinner. About $50 fish
were caught, Mr.. Dewey, of Robin
son, Illinois, taking more than any
other man of the party, and Mrs
Sheffield more than any of the ladies'
The party was caught in rain on
the return trip, but it failed to damp
en- their spirits, and all returned hap
py and satisfied with their day.

becomes saturated with poisons, the
patient becomes thin and pale and in
time various complications are apt
to result.
Tanlac is powerful reconstructiye
tonic and quickly overcomes this con.
dition by aiding Nature to eliminate
the impurities from the system in a
natural way and enable the vital or
gans to properly perform their func-
tons. That is why it is called Ma
lures Medicine.
In fact, there is not single portion
of the body that is not benefited by
the helpful action of Tanlac, which be-
gins its work by stimulating the diges-
tive organs, thereby enriching the
blood and invigorating the entire .sys-
TEN. Next, it enables the weak, worn
out stomach to thoroughly digest its
food and convert the nourishing ele-
ments into bone, blood and muscle,
The result is you feel strong, sturdy
and well with the proper amount ON
flesh, as Nature intended.
