When the Peanuts Ran Out.

For two hours an old back countryman, who had never before seen an elephant, had been standing before a row of them in enrapt silence dealing out peanuts one at a time. When the last was gone and no more forthcoming, Jumbo, the largest elephant, reached over and removed the entertainer’s hat from his head to the top of a lion’s cage nearby. For the first time in two hours the old man expressed his emotions in words: “You old two-tailed Indianrubber nuisance you!” he exclaimed Indignantly. “If I knew which end your head was on, I’d slap your face.”

COFFEE THRESHED HER. 15 Long Years.

"For over fifteen years,” writes a patient, hopeful little Ills, woman, "while a coffee drinker, I suffered from Spinal Irritation and Nervous trouble. I was treated by good physicians, but did not get much relief. “I never suspected that coffee might be aggravating by condition. (Tea Is just as injurious, because it contains caffeine, the same drug found In coffee.) I was down-hearted and discouraged, but prayed daily that I might find something to help me. “Several years ago, while at a friend’s house I drank a cup of Posturn and though I had never tasted anything more delicious. “From that time on I treed Postmn Instead of coffee and soon began to improve In health, so tbgt now I can walk half a dozen blocks or more with ease, and do many other things that I never thought I would be able to do again in this world. “My appetite is good, I sleep well and find life is worth living. A lady of my acquaintance said she did not like Postum, it was so weak and tasteless. “I explained to her the difference when it is made right—boiled according to directions. She was glad to know this because coffee did not agree with her. Now her folks say they expect to use Postum the rest of their lives.” Name given upon request Read the little book, "The Road to Wellville,” in pkgs. “There’s a Rear son.’’ "Postum now comes in concentrated, powder form, called Instant Postum.

HERRMANN’S PART IN FRANK CHANCE DEAL

The Washington Star publishes the following dispatch from New York: Practical baseball men who have no axes to grind have figured it out that Charles Webb Murphy of the Cubs allowed ap opportunity to make SIO,OOO slip away in order to vent his spite when he sold Frank Chance to August Herrmann for $1,500. Murphy could have sold Chance’s release to Frank J. Farrell for SIO,OOO last summer, for Farrell stated then, without reserve, that if it were possible he would readily pay that much money to place the peerless leader in charge of the Highlanders: If Murphy had controlled his temper and had retained Chance on the Cubs’ roster, even after he had appointed John J. Evers manager, he could have sold the P. L. to W. H. Locke’s syndicate, which, took hold of the Philadelphia National league club. | Locke asked Herrmann and Murphy in Cincinnati if there wasn’t some way the Philadelphia club could secure Chance. It Is said that Locke was ready to pay Herrmann a good round sum for Chance’s release providing Herrmann would declare off the deal to transfer the P, L. to the New York Americans. Locke is said to have appealed to Charles P. Taft for aid, but was informed by Herrmann that the waiver on Chance secured from President Wiler of the Quakers could not be ignored. There isn’t a doubt, therefore, that if Chance now was the property of the Cubs Locke would readily agree to pay SIO,OOO to Murphy for the noted manager’s release, or that he would be willing to hand over to the Cubs several of the Philadelphia club’s best payers. But Murphy, eager to humiliate Chapce, was willing to sell him to Herrmann for the paltry sum of

SAFETY PLAY WILL REMAIN

National Billiard Association Decides to Retain Old Rule—Opposes Long Contests. Safety play Is to he retained as permissable in billiards and not to he penalized in the rules about to be established by the National Association of Amatur Billiard Players, according to a decision reached by the rules committee. It wis learned that a number of prominent amateur players had registered their opposition to the proposed rule on the grdund that it would take from billiards what amounted to its only defensive element. Although it 1b believed by the committee that the new rule was misinterpreted, its elimination has been decided upon. The idea was to do away with the deliberate wrecking of a billiard match by a player who was unable to get his stroke and would not allow his opponent to make anything out of his turns at table. Play lasting for five hours or more has often resulted from such exhibitions.

To Train Joan for 1913.

Captain David Shaw's famous trotting mare Joan, has arrived at Beau Ideal farm, near Cleveland, to be put In training under Mike McDeavitt, with a view to giving her a record of 2:00 or better next year. Joan was mated with Bingen this year but is not in foal.

President Herrmann of Cincinnati.

$1,500, which was calculated to create the impression that Chance as manager or player was a worthless investment. Summing up the big threecornered deal, these ball - men say that Murphy actually let Chance, a SIO,OOO manager, and Tinker, a $lO,000 shortstop, go to the Reds for five players and $1,500. The five players —Mitchell, Phelan, Knisely, Corridon and Humphries—excluding SB,OOO paid by Hdrrmann for Corridon, would have cost Murphy about SIO,OOO at the most, so that the owner of the Cubs came out at the little end of the horn. The Cubs have an experimental manager in Evers and Nobody to compare with Tinker as a shortstop. Murphy will be wholly to hlame if the Cubs fail to keep near the top this season,” said a National league club owner the other day. “Contrary to the impression he created, Chance is in good health, and will continue to prove his worth as a manager when he gets the Highlanders in smooth working order. The National league as a whole now realizes that it was a fierce mistake to let Chance get away. You cannot blame Herrmann for swinging the Chance deal for the American league. He saw an opportunity to strengthen the Reds and he didn’t care what it cost. He was the man of the hour when-4he erisis~ar» rived because he was smart enough to buy Chance from Murphy at the waiver price. If Herrman hadn’t been tipped off by Farrell and Johnson to claim Chance Murphy would -hate carried out his plan to ship his former manager to the woods, and the American league would have had no say in the matter. The American league simply outwitted Murphy, who has put his own club and league in the hole.

°f SPORTDOM It is now up to Hal Chase to make second base famous, also. A sure cure for baseball players who are nervous on the stage: Keep off the stage. Wolgast also is a holdout—for $lO,000 —a pretty big sum for a fellow who's loßt a belt. No one who knows will blame Ritchie for refusing to let down the bars to the hefty ones. Bender and Oldring have both promised Connie Mack that they will be mighty good in 1913. From all indications the intercollegiate basket ball Beason in Texas this year will be a record breaker. ) McCarty is chased by vaudeville agents now. A short time ago he was doing the chasing—after meal tickets.

BOY OBEYED ORDERS GIVEN

Meant Well, but information Was Not Welcomed by Hotel Manager Jutt at That Time. A certain New York hotel manager is one of these nervous men who constantly warn their employes against keeping them in ignorance of any happening around the place. He hired a new bell boy recently, and gave him the usual warning: "Remember,” he warned, “if anything happens around here I’m to be the first person to know about it.” Soon after that he was showing three haughty Daughters of the Confederacy one of the best rooms in the place, when the new bell boy rushed in with his hair on end. “Something’s happened!” he replied. The three Daughters of the Confederacy. turned coldly,..and the man:, ager, anxious to get rid of the boy, demanded''to know the trouble. “That old cat down stairs,” said the boy, "has just had kittens! What shall we do?” , The manager’s suggestion was rough.

Brightening Flower Pots.

Flower pots frequently fade into a dingy color from their original bright and cheerful brick red. They may be easily brightened again by putting ordinary red ochre in water until it is about as thick, as paint, then painting ing the flower pot, which absorbs the color and holds It. Silence may be golden, but silver will shut a man’s • mouth just as effectively.

Women Are Constantly Being Restored to Health by Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound. “Worth mountains of gold,” says one woman. Another says, “I would not give Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound for all the other medicines for women in the world.” Still another writes, “ I should like to have the merits of Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound thrown on the sky with a searchlight so that all suffering women could read and be convinced that there is a remedy for their ills.*We could fill a newspaper ten times the size of this with such quotations taken from the letters we have received from grateful women whose health has been restored and suffering banished by Lydia E.
