THOMAS ADO SMITH MADE BIG CATCH

Hancock County Men Catch First Groupers at St. Petersburg, Florida.

For the first time this season two groupers were caught yesterday from the railroad dock. The fish were good-sized ones, and attracted -considerable attention. A. B. Thomas and John R. Smith were the lucky fishermen who landed the catch. The one Mr. Thomas caught weighed 14 pounds and the other 10.

With a patience that would do €redit to Job. fishermen have energetically plied their lines for the past two months without a single nibble from a fish of any size to encourage them. They had almost lost heart and were beginning to believe that the fishing of which this city boasts is a myth. The catch of these two fishermen w7ill no doubt give them an impetus to further efforts.

It is not an unusual occurrence for fishermen during the months of March, April and May to land some big fish from the city docks and during former years there have been some fine catches. The unusual cold weather this winter has kept them in deeper water and the fishermen have had poor luck so far.

Red fish, mackerel and other delectable fish can be caught from the piers when the weather is warm and the presence of these fish in the bay will bring out many of the sportsmen with their rods. The two men made their catch yesterday after about an hour of casting. —St. Petersburg (Fla.) Daily Times.

BABY HAS CROUP

Hyomei, a Simple. Harm] acc mw] Well Known Remedy All

That is Needed.

Few. if any, ills of babyhood cause more family alarm than croup and rightfully so, for if sure and effective relief is not promptly given, the life of the little one is endangered.

At the first symptoms of croup, use Hyomei. It is a simple treata so el a stomach dosing—simply breathe it. Hyomei is easy to use—just put a few drops on a handkerchief or flannel and hold to the child's nose. It will then breathe in the balsamic and health-restoring fumes. If the case is very severe, give the vapor treatment —30 drops of Hyomei poured into a teacup three-fourths full of boiling water. Hold the cup close to the nostrils. Some of the severest cases have been cured by this method in a few minutes.

No household should be without Hyomei—it is not only a quick and effective relief for croup of children. but is one of the simplest, surest and easiest treatments for a cold in the head, bronchitis, laryngitis, or any catarrhal ill of grownups. Air laden with Hyomei soothes, heals and vitalizes the sore, raw and inflamed mucous meoibrane of the breathing organs almost immediately. Do not be without Hyomei another day—druggists everywhere sell it the complete outfit, which includes hard rubber inhaler, $1.00. Eitra bottle of the liquid, if wanted, 50 cents. Early Drug Co., always sells Hyomei with agreement to return the money if you are not satisfied. w-s (Advertisement)
