Seven Months Without Food or Drink Cause Them to In crease in Weight. ' Thirty years ago, with the hardest, kind of labor," said S. S. Scoggins, the- game and fish dealer, "I suc ceeded in selling $1,000 worth of diamond-back terrapins at from $3 to $10 a dozen. In the season which closed on the 1st of April I sold over $100,- 000 worth, and my sales would have reached $500,000 if I could have got ten the terrapin. The Baltimore peo ple, and for that matter the people of the whole state, did not tako to terra pin at first. It was ten years before they were purchased to any great extent. My grandfather leaves it on record that he bought the best terra pin in the Annapolis market for twelve and a quarter cents each, and his slaves once rebelled because ho gave them terrapin and would not give them pork. Of course, times have greatly changed since then. " Now there are $1,500,000 worth of terrapin caught out of the Chesa peake Bay and its tributaries every year. As the price averages fully $30 a dozen, this represents 600,000 terra pins annually. During the season over 500 men are engaged in catching them. They are caught on both sides of the bay, from Rappahannock to Spring Gardens. They are found wherever the watercresses grow, and, as you probably know, the Chesa peake Bay is the best body of water for this grass in the world. It is that which gives them their wonderful flavor." Mr. Scoggins, who knows from a long personal observation all that is worth knowing on this subject, is a firm believer in the terrapin, both as a food and as a medicine. He cited to his visitor several remarkable sto ries of its sustaining power. "On the 1st of last September," said he, " I selected four terrapins from my stock, weighing exactly four pounds each. I was very precise about the weight, as I wished them for a spe cific purpose. These I placed in a strong box, which was entirely empty. 1 nailed this box up securely and laid itaside. On the 1st of April I opened it for the first time since it had been closed. What do you think was the result of the seven months of total abstinence from both food and drink!" " Starvation, of course." " There is where you are mistaken. Not only were the" diamond backs well and hearty, but their average weight was four pounds and one ounce each. They had gained one ounce on nothing. 1 have tried the same exper iment before, and always with simi lar results. It doesn't cost much to board terrapins, does it ? " Mr. Scoggins related an instance of the recuperative powers of the terra pin. One night a healthy rat made a sizable meal off a terrapin's hind foot, and left an ugly sore. The ter rapin was placed in a box by itself. Nothing was applied to the sore, and in the space of twenty-four hours the wound was completely healed. There are several methods of catching the terrapin. One is by a dredge, another by a seine, another by a net, and still another by a three-pronged stick. With the latter the catcher prods in the mud until he feels something move, and then he reaches down for the diamond back. The element of luck naturally enters largely into ter rapin catching, but experience fre quently shows whore they most abound. Good catchers know the reptile's peculiarities, and when they discover a luxurious growtn oi water cress they lie low for their prey, as that is sure to prove a terrapin feed ing ground. Baltimore American. Delicate persons, and all whose systems hae become debilitated, should bear in mind that Simmons Liver Keguiator is not a drastic, purging medicine, does not weaken or deplete the sj'steai as other purgative medicines do, but acts gently. It will invigorate like a glass of wine, but it is no intoxicating beverage to lead to intemperance; will promote digestion, dissipate headache, and generally tone up the system. The dose is small, not unplensam, and its virtue undoubted. A Keep street ofd maid wbo keeps tour cats linus a scuttieiut ot coal in (r buck vard everv mornin??.

Among the benign qualities of HostetterV st much Bitters, Is that of expelling from tbe circulation tnoso acrin impurities to wnicn the dhp.i e Is attributable. Analysis rroves that in ciLses of rheumatism the kidneys fall to eliminate these impurities from the blood.
