Some Good Pointers in Art of Bait-
Casting.
“My system of bait-casting differs
from the orthodox style in this way:
says William C. Vogt a master angler.
The rank and file of casters use only
the power of their arms, shoulders
and back, but I bring into action all
the muscles right down to my toes.
I cast just about as most pitchers
throw the ball. When I bring the
rod back of my head to start the cast,
I raise my left leg until it is parallel
with the ground. As the cast pro-
ceeds, I lower the left leg and raise
the right one rearward. I thrust the
left arm out straight to balance the
right. Thus I am able to put all force
into the effort. Every part of me
acts in unison to apply all my
strength to the end of one arm. The
termination of the cast finds me in
the position as a pitcher the moment
the ball is half-way to the plate. I
am bent midway over, forward; my
right arm is stretched out straight
ahead, my left leg is off the
earth. That posture leaves me ready
to strike the fish if he should take
instant hold of the bait. If he should
rush ahead with it, I am prepared to
take up the slack with the length of
the right arm and the arc of the rod’s
circle. Of course, such a full body
swing cannot be used in a rowboat,
but I do most of my fishing from the
shore.”
Vogt’s particular system is so ef-
fective that he can take a bait-cast-
ing rod and a 2i-pound test line, or
No. 60 thread, and defy countless pei-
sons to snap the line by sudden jerks,
| pulls or going slack. He has done
this to prove that large fish can be
landed on very light lines, if properly
played—that there’s no defence for
play-two of three-pound bass for a
half hour with a young tree as a rod
and a clothes-rope for a line, any
more than there is for a huntsman
using a machine gun on ducks—From

ATalkwith a Bellefonte Man
Mr. Montgomery Tells Something of
Interest to Bellefonte Folks.
There's nothing more convincing
than the statement of someone you
know and have confidence in. That's
why this talk of Mr. Montgomery of
Race St., should be mighty helpful
here in Bellefonte.
H. F. Montgomery, painter & rail-
road fireman, Race St. Bellefonte,
says: “The constant jarring on the
railroad brought on kidney trouble
and I had cutting pains across my
back. The ache across my kidneys
became so intense I could hardly
stand. I was also annoyed by the
weak condition of my kidneys and I
had to get up at night to pass the
secretions. When I did a little work,
I was well worn-out. Doan’s Pills,
from Runkle’s Drug Store rid me of
the attack.”
Price 60c. at all dealers. Don’t sim-
ply ask for a kidney remedy—get
Doan’s Pills—the same kind that Mr.
Montgomery had. Foster-Milburn Co.,

was invented.
INTER-COMMUNICATION
The first two telephones in Pennsylvania were on a “ private line,” each’
connecting only with the other.
So it was with the next two; and the next.
Inter-communication between all telephones in the community came only
with the first switchboard, in 1878.
To many people the continued development of this switching apparatus
is the outstanding accomplishment of fifty years of telephone history.
They shake their heads at the thought of an ordinary conversation be-
tween two citics three or four thousand miles apart, and wonder at the
strides of Science. But perhaps their sense of mechanics is most con-
fused in considering the switchboard complications involved in the
connection of any two telephones—“anywhere, any time —without
interference or confusion of the thousands of other calls being made
simultaneously.
In cities like Philadelphia, Pittsburgh, Scranton, and Harrisburg the
most ordinary local call may pass through two
6c
private branch” and
two ““ Central Office?” switchboards. A toll call from any point in Penn-
sylvania may pass through four or five central office switching mechanisms.
To match with improvement and simplification the inherent complexities
which accompany telephone growth is an undertaking which becomes
more difficult each year.
Yet, at the present time, the general speed and reliability of connection
are continually climbing, and the next ten years will show further attain-
ment that should make the present service seem only commonplace.
