Four Hammond athletes will go to Winona Lake on the Fourth and enter in the athletic meet there. Victor Dyer will enter in pole vault and the jump. Chalmer Smith will try out with the weights and in addition will run the half mile. Will Whitlieb will enter for the long distance events while Bellman will enter in the hurdles and quarter mile events. This is a Hammond team that should return with their share of the honors.

Women and Water. "If nervous women would only drink more water they would not be so nervremarked a trained nurse the other day. "Nearly every physician will recommend a woman who is suffrom nervous prostration or nervous exhaustion to drink lots of

water between meals, but many wowho do not come under a doctor's

care would feel better and look better if they would drink say a quart of water in the course of the day," says Home Chat. "Water is a nerve food. It has a distinctly soothing effect when sipped gradually, as one can test for herself."

Nice People. The people that we meet in books Are clever, kind and sweet; The men are brave and stout of heart.

The ladies fit to eat. Unless they are the other kind, The villains dark and deep, Who hatch up plots and work them out While other people sleep. They have no cares about the rent Or anything like that; The ladles never have to beg Their husbands for a hat; They hire a cab or take the train And go most anywhere And never stop to think about A vulgar thing like fare. They live in some fine mansion or A cottage by the sea; Their visitors can stay a week. And everything is free; They have a gardener and a maid, A coachman and a man, And all of their arrangements run On some self working plan. No bill collector comes around To mar life's placid flow; No landlord says the rent is due And they must pay or go; For panics, boycotts, lockouts, strikes. They do not care a rapIn fact, in every way their lives Are what you'd call a snap.

Our Eastern Fleet. We are sending a fleet of torpedo boats to the Philippines to ply in and out among the islands, to fire off salutes when congressional committees call and to be on hand if Uncle Sam in the guise of opportunity knocks at the door of China and is obliged to break in and tell the sleeping inhabitants that he has arrived. These torpedo boats, while not much bigger than a cup and saucer, are veriterrors. They can blow up a big ship if it will stand still while they are doing it, and in the humdrum days of peace they are master hands at running into mud banks. It is a pity, though, that the officers are so dignified that we cannot make the fullest use of them, for the boats could make a noble right on the mosof the island province if they would just dodge up the rivers and, catching these monsters unawares, throw dynamite shells into their midst.
