. FOR EXHAUSTION
After Constant Study Noted Author
fty on Health States Cause.

1t is positively alarming to see the
many people nowadays who just
haven't got strength and endurance
enough to do hardly anything which
requires exertion. 1t naturally wor-
Iries you when you feel that you are
not strong as you used to be, and
you are not going to be satisfied I'M
It'll you find out the reason for it, and
correct the fault.
!! If you feel uncomfortable after
eating, or wake up in the morning
feeling just as tired as when you
went to bed, you are a victim of this
modern condition. If you ar nervous,
irritable, Respondent, with apparently
no aim in life, these are the surest
signs that Won are not feeding your
nerves, muscles, tissue and brains
with the nourishment they require to
give you health, strength and endur-
ance and power to stand strenuous
work and play.
According to authorities on health
when you no longer have the iron and
,vitamines your blood needs to carry
health, strength and energy to every
muscle and nerve in your body, you
should put your stomach in a healthy
condition Immediately so it can di-
gnsf and assimilate them from the
food into your blood. And to prove
these theories, the phenomenal new
treatment known as RE-CU-MA is
making robust, healthy and strong
people GlIt Of weaklings every day by
the hundreds.
. RE-CU-MA quickly vitalizes the
gastrSc juices so they digest your
food and pass it on to the intestines,
so they can assimilate the iron and
vitamines from it into your blood.
With rich blood, full of health, cours-
ing through your veins carrying nou-
rishment to your tissue, nerves, mus
eIes, brairS.and every part of your
body, you sill quickly regain your
former sire 4 tn and endurance.

, BEAR TRAPS FOR BURGLARS
Brooklyn Man Braved Consequences
of WeII.Known Old Adage, with
Gratifying Result.

A Mr.. Cogan of the Williamsburg
section of Brooklyn, after being VS.
tied by burglars ten times, decided TO
depend no longer on Commissioner
Enright. He set bear trap inside
window of his home and caught bur-
ylar in it, the New York Herald
states.

ton. to be released on bail easily
jumped, to be convicted even, and
sent to a prison where there are good
food and motion pictures. But 1t is
quite another thing for the criminal
to feel the iron jaws of a bear trap
close on his leg. A bear trap does not
coddle or release on bond.
Unfortunately, every householder
cannot safely set bear trap for
burglars. He might accidentally catch
himself or his wife or the children or
the dog. 1t it were not for that the
whole town might well turn trapper.

the pine, forests decade or so ago.
But where are the white pine forests
now?
Florida has no closed season for
angling. A few scattered counties
limit the number of black bass Cor
trout, as they are called in the
SOUTH that can be killed in a day.
But you are free to cast or still fish
for the gamest of fresh water fishes
at any time of the year the mood
hits you. Thousands of pounds of
bass are caught with hook and line
and lure, and in nets and with seines
all during the spawning season,
when each fish killed means the sac
rificing of thousands more in EN-
broyo form. To continue to allow
this is no less than high crime.
Along the west coast Foss found

v. B. Gray writes to The Cleve-
land Plain Dealer:
Something over a year ago stat
ed that unless Florida awakened and
passed restrictive legislation that
would safeguard her many species of
fresh water fish it would be only a
short time before anglers would
have to look elsewhere for their pis-
catorial pleasures. That prediction
has come true in part even sooner
than I had believed possible.
AL Foss returned few days ago
from a three-month tour of Florida.
He travelled by automobile. He mo-
tored down the east coast to Miami,
then cross the state to Tampa and
toured up the west coast to Jackson
vile. His trip total was $500 miles.
At every lake and stream he stopped
and did little casting. He talked to
hundreds of anglers and local fisher
men, tackle dealers and sportsmen.

FLORIDA BLACK BASS DISAPPEARING J,
FROM WATERS OF STATE UNDER LAWS
NOW SUPPOSED TO GIVE PROTECTION

And this epitomizes his findings:
"The cast coast of Florida for it's
entire length is shot so far as fresh
water angling is concerned. The
lakes and streams are fished out.
do not mean to say that you cannot
catch a few fish, but the chance to
bring in the old-time strings is gone.
The thousands of anglers who come
from all over the world, together
with the local residents who fish for
the market, using traps, seines and
all manner of devices, have so de-
pleted the waters tina tit is not worth
ones time and money to travel all
the way to the east coast, if their
main object is angling"
So there you are. If you ask the
average Floridian he will tell you
there isn't any use in having strong
angling laws, much less enforcing
them, for the supply of fish is mex
haustible. That's what was, said of

Comrade Searles from the Soldiers
home at Sawtelle was over at San
Gabriel the other day. He came by
way of the trolley car. But he could
have walked easily, had he been so
minded.
Seventy years ago, Comrade >Searles
g, used often to pass the old mission
ef San Gabriel when the padres ana
the Indians were still there. sixty
years ago he carried a musket on his
shoulder in the Civil war. He is now
ninety-one years young.
And so he came back to this old
haunt of his the other day. We found
him sitting in the sun by the side OF
the kings highway making sketches.
He drew fascinating pictures OF the
incomparably beautiful old campanile
of the mission whose bells rang out
their messages of peace and faith
long before the Liberty bell in the
tower of the State house In Philadel-
phia rang out its deathless message
in l77o And he also sketched the OLD
stairway OF the mission Whose S'oho'
are worn with the feet of countless
Indian neophytes since 1t was builded,
q century and half ago. And fine
sketch, too, of the Old Grapevine which
is the mother of all the vineyards IN
California.
And we thought it delightful expe-
rience to have had. 1t isn't every day
that one meets man ninety-two years
of age who is still as spry as a steer
rod, and whose mind retains all It's
magical faculties. 1t was inspiring.

This was based on rumor that no
food had been ordered for further

Prelates about the vatican who are

point to the choice of Cardinal Gas

According to custom the supply of
