USE SACRIFICE ONLY IN CLOSE GAMES

Manager Stovall, of the Naps, believes the sacrifice should be used only in close games. “When the Nap pitcher Is going good we will use the sacrifice and play for one run at a time, which is the safe and sure way,” says George, “but when our pitching is not strong enough to hold the opposing team to a few runs we will play the hit and run, taking a chance on getting more runs than the other fellows.

BALL AND BAT NOTES

A more severe penalty on “beating” might help some of the major leaguers to regain control. Perhaps if there were less farming by the big leaguers the smaller leagues would be healthier also. In architectural design and the way he stands and moves around Ping Bodie is a ringer for Jimmy Williams. One reason why Jimmy Murray did not join the Indianapolis team: Owner Watkins said he did not want ‘him. The report that Fred Tenney is dickering for Jake Beckley and Amos Rusie to join his Boston team is unfounded. No outfielder plays batters any better than Harry Wolter. 4Je studies every man closely and never fails to shift accordingly. Frank Chance has been “beaned” so often that he says his eyesight is affected and he may quit the game for good, as a player. The signing of Catcher Lew M<S Alllster by Buffalo means the release of Heinie Beckendorf, who has not been catching good ball. Budy Hulswitt, when he got ready to join Louisville, found that he would have to beat a pretty good ball player out of a job to get on. Catcher Harry Bemis of Columbus Is injured and out of the game. Columbus has had bad luck with its catching department this season.

The days of the double header have arrived and the dyed in the wool fanatic sits comparatively back and takes the big run for his money with much joy. Kansas City fans think the veteran. Dusty Rhoades is entitled to another lease of life in the majors, based on the ball he has been pitching for the Blues. Baseball ought to make a hit in Japan, if for no other reason than that the names of the players give much play for imaginative work on the part of the rooters. Ed Hendricks, the Michigan southpaw who was sold to Newark by the Giants, but who refused to report, is pitching for a semi-professional team at Benton Harbor, a town just across the lake from Chicago. Fans along the Pacific coast, who are as keen knockers of umpires as fans anywhere, declare President Lynch, of the National league, has actually found a jewel of an umpire in Ralph Frary. “ Frank Isbell who moved his Wichita team to Pueblo, is not sorry he did so. He is drawing good crowds and wears a big smile because he shook the dust of Kansas before the dust got the best of him.

Titles In England.

Forty or fifty years ago few people in England had titles. There were only a few decorations which entitled their owners to put the prefix “Sir” before their names. We all of us looked down with lofty contempt upon the counts and barons that were so plentiful in continental countries. Now we can do so no longer, for probably there la no other country in the world where the traffic in titles is so open and so indecent as in England. What the number of our decorations is I do not know, and I imagine that few do. Every few years some new one is created and an Englishman with a taste that way can easily manage to exhibit himself covered with metal disks and bits of ribbon like some successful cow at an agricultural show. These embellishments may flatter the vanity of their wearers, but they do not increase the respect that is felt for Englishmen. —London Truth.

Too Dangerous.

In the struggling days at Tuskegee, Booker T. Washington found that he would have to use an old chicken house for a schoolroom. “Uncle,” he said to an old colored man. “I want you to come down at nine o’clock tomorrow morning and help me clean out a henhouse.” “Law now, Mr. Washington,” the old man expostulated, “you-all don’t want to begin cleanin’ out no henhouse roun’ yere in de day time.”— Success Magazine.

A SPOON SHAKER. Straight From Coffeedom.

Coffee can marshall a good squadron of enemies and some very hard ones to overcome. A lady in writes: “I have always been very fond of good coffee, and for years drank it at least three times a day. At last, however, I found that it was injuring me. ‘7 became bilious, subject to, frequent and violent headaches, and so very nervous, that I could not lift a spoon to my mouth without spilling a part of its contents. “My heart got. ‘rickety* and. beat so fast and so hard that I could scarcely breathe, while my skin got thick and dingy, with yellow blotches on my face, caused by the condition of my liver and blood. “I made up my mind that all these afflictions came from the coffee, and I determined to experiment and see. “So I quit coffee and got a package of Postum which furnished my hot morning beverage. After a little time I was rewarded by u complete restoration of my health in every respect “I do not suffer from biliousness any more, my headaches have disappeared, my nerves are as steady as could be desirtd, my heart beats regularly and my complexion has cleared up beautifully—the blotches have been wiped out and it is such a pleasure to be well again.” Name given by Postum Co., Battle Creek.

50,000 NEEDED TO HARVEST WESTERN CANADA’S CROP

Win Take 160,000 Altogether to Take Care of Yield of Prairie Provinces. One hundred and sixty-two thousand farm hands win be required this year to ‘ harvest the grain crops of Manitoba, Saskatchewan and Alberta. Of this number the local help will provide about 112,000, which will leave about 50,000 extra farm hands. There is, therefore, a great demand for this class of laborers in all parts of Western Canada. In order to meet the requirements it has been arranged to grant very low railway rates from all boundary points reached by Canadian railways. In order to secure these rates it will be necessary for you to call on one of the following authorized agents of the Canadian government: M. V. Mclnnes, 176 Jefferson Avenue, Detroit, Michigan; C. A. Laurier, Marquette, Michigan; J. S. Crawford, Syracuse, N. Y.; Thos. Hetherington, Room 202, 73 Tremont Street, Boston, Mass.; H. M. Williams, 413 Gardner Bldg, Toledo, Ohio; Geo. Alrd, 216 Traction-Terminal Bldg, Indianapolis, Indiana; C. J. Broughton, Room 412 Merchants' Loan & Trust Bldg, Chicago, I1L; Geo. A. Hall, 2nd Floor, 125 Second Street, Milwaukee, Wis.; E. T. Holmes, 315 Jackson Street, St Paul, Minn.; Chas. Pilling, Clifford Block, Grand Forks, N. D.; J. M. MacLachlan, Box 197, Watertown, S. D.; W. V. Bennett, Room 4, Bee Bldg, Omaha, Neb.; W. H. Rogers, 125 West 9th Street, Kansas City, Mo.; Benj. Davies, Room 6, Dunn Block, Great Falls, Montana; J. B. Carbonneau, Jr, 217 Main Street, Biddeford, Me.; J. N. Grieve, Auditorium Building, Spokane, Wash.

This will give to Intending harvest laborers a splendid opportunity to look over the magnificent wheat fields of Western Canada and will give them the best evidence that can be secured of the splendid character of that country from the farmer’s standpoint. There will be at least 200,000,009 bushels of wheat harvested within the area of the three provinces above named this year and it is expected that the yield will run from 15 to 25 bushels per acre. Many farmers, this year, will net, as a result of their labors, as much as 38 to $lO per acre and many of them 'will deposit as profits as much as SB,OOO to SIO,OOO. The wide publicity that has been given to the excellent crop that is being raised in central Alberta and southern Alberta, central Saskatchewan and southern Saskatchewan, and also in Manitoba, will increase the price of lands in these three provinces from $3 to $5 per acre and the man who was fortunate enough to secure lands at from sl2 to S2O per acre will have reason for gratification that he exercised sufficient forethought to invest, while the man who was fortunate enough to secure a homestead of 160 acres free will also have a greater reason to feel pleased. Notwithstanding the great addition to the acreage this year over last and the large crop that will be ready for harvest there is no reason to become alarmed that the harvest will not be reaped successfully. There will be a great demand for these low rates during the next couple of months; be sure to make your application to any of the agents above mentioned that may be in your territory at as early a date as possible. Harvesting will commence about the 25th of July and continue for five or six weeks, when threshing will begin and there will be plenty of work until November.

RUDE AWAKENING FOR ELIZA

Too Late She Discovered That Visitor Was Not the Object of Her Adoration. I ’ The gentle Eliza was sitting drearily in the darkened room, waiting miser ably for a visitor, whom she feared would never come. To tell the truth, Eliza and William had quarreled bitterly the night before. But what is that? A ring, a step, a masculine voice. She waited not, but threw herself into the visitor’s arms. “Oh, my darling.” she sobbed, with her head upon his. bosom. “I am so glad you have called. I did so long to make up and do my best to pay you for bringing light into my life. Let us settle peacefully onoe more with each other.” r “Well, miss,” said a strange voice, "I’m willin’, I’m sure. But my Instructions is that if you don’t I’m to cut off the gas!” i And it was only then that Eliza found out she had mistaken a common gas person for her William.— London Tit-Bits.

Harold Knows the Signs.

Five-year-old Harold’s older sister was in the habit of making a good many demands on him. Generally her requests for favors, usually the running of errands around tho house, were prefaced by what she considered subtle flattery. . “Now, Harold,” she began one day, “you’re a dear, sweet little boy, and you know I late you—•* but Harold cut her short “Well, Ethel,” he said, earnestly, "if it’s upstairs, I won’t go.”—Lippincott’s Magazine.

Varying Prices of Lobsters.

Lovers of lobster ought to get a lot of comfort out of a recent paragraph in the famous old Kennebec Journal, which says that the crustaceans are "dirt cheap.” However, the Journal adds, “they are not as low in price as in the old days, when they-sold six for 25 cents, but the price has fallen to 16 cento a pound, which is decidedly different from the figures that were being quoted early in the spring. Then they were being bought alive for 50 cents a* pound from the fishermen, and the price in Boston and New York spared to 80 cents a pound, and, in some cases, beyond.”
