Treasure of Zuyder Zee
How Gold and Silver Lost in Shipwreck Will Be Searched For, : The Dutch await with curiosity the results of a work undertaken in the Zuyder Zee. On October 9, 1799, the English ship of war Lutin sank in Dutch waters, carrying with it to the botton: thirty millions of gold and silver tn bars that the British cabinet was sending to Hamburg to help at a financjal crisis in the Hanse towns. The cargo, insured for nearly twentyfive millions, was entirely lost. The Dutch government, urged by France, tried to recover the wreck, but a violent storm covered the ship with such a thickness of sand that it had to be given up. After the restoration of European peace the Kking of Holland abandoned his rights to his English colleague, who ceded them to the company of Lloyd. 4 The company made 8 hew attempt

pies, day after day. and week after week, and still do her duty by the Betzville Bewing soclety. And yeo! Miss Allegretio had not the heart to turn & poor ple-hungry hobo from her door with cruel words. For wseveral weeks she brooded mournfully over the situation, and gshe wns losing flesh Tapidiy when a complets sagintion of the matter came to her at a meoting of the Betzville Sewing soviety. - Uncle Ashdod Clute himself said the solution was one of those strokes of genius that come ta a persen once in & MHfetime like a flash of lightning out of a clear sky. Miss Allegretto was sewing away and brooding, and didn’t know what in the world to do. when she noticed that her needle was a little dull, and ghe reached into her sewing bag and pulled out her emery bag to sharpen ‘her needle a little. Her emery bag, like every other emery bag in Betzville, was shaped like, and looked like, a ripe red strawberry, and the moment she saw it, the solution came in to her mind. Without 8 moment's hesitation she gathered up all the emery strawberries in the Sewing soclety and then excused herself and went home and made a strawberry pie out of them. When the pie was completed it was one of the best looking strawberry pies Betzvflle had ever geen turped Ou' by Miss Allegretto G. Spads, and without a word she set it on the kitchen window sill to cool. Half an hour later Seattle James wandered up with his sweet smile, and when he saw the pie resting peaceful1y on the window sill he grinned joyfully and reached for it. He opened his mouth and took a bite. Miss Al legretto says nothing can describe the struggle that followed but the meeting of an irresistible force and an immovable obstruction. At the first bite Seattle James looked pained and surprised, but he was game and bit again. Then a glare of anger came into his eyes, and, wrapping his arms around the pie, he lay down and hugged 1t while he chewed at it angrily. He seemed to feel that his whole future strawberry pie life depended on his eating this one, and he meant to eat it or die in the struggle. Sometimes he held it down with one foot while he chewed at it, and sometimes he crushed it up against the side of the house while he bit at it snappishly, and once in awhile he would stagger off a few feet and lie on his back and pant for a few minutes while he gathered new strength for the attack. Miss Allegretto said she watched and waited with bated breath, for she felt that her whole future career hung in the Balance. If Seattle James beld aqut she was condemned to ever

BASKETBALL RULES CHANGED Recent Revision Forbids “Dribbling”™ of the Sphere and Eliminates s Tricky Throws. : Deciding that several changes were pecessary in the code of bazketball to make the Intercollegiate ruies elastic enough to permit a more interestIng game, the committee has made about a dozen changes. The practice of “dribbling” up to the basket and taking a step to shoot for a basket is now forbidden under the new rules. Provision is made for the contestant catching the ball on the run. It will then be up to the referee to uee his judgment and give the player a chance to slow up. To avoid the schemeof a tricky piayer to deliberately throw the ball against a wall so that it will carom Yack to him or one of his team mates the new rules makes the ball “dead” when !s it thrown. The new rules permit a glass background for the haskets as in the National A. A. U rules Mere. ly touching the line makes the ball “out of bounds” so there no longer will be a dispute about the player's foot or any part of his person being across the lipe. The makers of official baskethall will have to change their ma. chinery a little, as under the new Tules the weight must be from 24 to 23 ounces, whereas, under the old rules they were to weigh from 18 to 20 ounces. : The referee may call fouls on all the players while the umpire may call fouls on only the eight who are out of the scrimmage for the ball. This 1s intended to reduce the possibility of players other than those struggling for the ball to commit a foul.

Griff's Tribute to Hal Chase, Hal Chase {s the greatest ball player in the business, Wagner, Cobb, LaJole and the rest not barred, according to Clark Griffith, manager of the Cin. cinnatl Reds. “Hal Chase doesn't have to take a back seat for any of them.” sald Grif. “He is the wonder of modern day baseball. There is only one thing the matter with Chase. He is too good for the men he plays with. He thinks faster than they do and moves ‘more rapidly. They have difficulty in keeping up with him. As a result, Chase does not work very well with the outfit with which he is now identified. However, that doesn't keep him from being & marvelous fielder, an absolutely correct thinker in every difficult situation and a batter who is always dangercus’ No magn knows better than Chase how to work the hit-and-run.

CHILDREN SHOWED IT Effect of Their Warm Drink in the Morning. A year ago ] was a wreck from coffee drinking and was on the point of giving up my position in the school room because of nervousness, “I was telling a friend about it and she said, ‘We drink nothing at meal time but Postume, and it is such =& comfort to have something we can enjoy drinking with the children.’ “] was astonished that she would allow he children to drink any kind of coffee, but she said Postum was the most healthful drink in the world for children as well as for older ones, and that the condition of both the childrem and adults showed that to be a fact. My first trial was a failure. The cook boiled it four or five minutes and it tasted so flat that I was in despair but determined to give it one more trial. This time we followed the directions and boiled it fifteen minutes after the boiling began. It was a decided guccess and I was completely won by sts rich delicious flavour. In a short time I noticed a decided improvement. in my condition and kept growing better month after month, until now lam perfectly healthy, and do my work in the school room with ease and pleasure. I would not return to the nervedestroying regular coffee for any money.” i R Read the famous little “Health Classic,” “The Road to Wellville,” in pkgs. “There’s a Reason.” e
