The First Base Ball Match.

Just 40 years ago yesterday, on the
10Th OF June, 1915, was played the
first match game Of base ball. 1t oc-
Cured in Hoboken n. j., though
both contesting clubs belonged in
New York. This original match
game consisted of only four innings,
the rule then being that the club first
making q runs in even innings
should be the victor. The rules did
not provide for the calling Of either
balls or strikes, and hence, if player
reached his first base in safety, his
successor at the bat would idly stand
at the home plate, watching the pitch
er and catcher as they tossed the ball
back and forth, and waiting for the
latter to let the ball so past him and
so enable the base runner to reach
second, then third, and then home.
He never made any attempt to strike
the ball until the run had been secur-
ed.-From the Philadelphia Times.

Amateur to n correspondent who wants to
know cheap but effective way of curtaining
the narrow and disproportionately high
windows of poorly lighted sitting room:
"Cut Off from the upper part of the windows
nough to make the height of the window pro-
portionate to the width, and fill the upper
part with Japanese lattice work, which can
be bought very cheap at almost any of the
japanese stores. Below have narrow brass
pole, with the usual brass rings. From this
suspend Crete curtains, which are transpar-
rent, but heavier than the similar grenadne
goods called Madras With a light buff or
rich Crcam-color window shade as a back
ground for the latticework, as it will
be if the shades are kept down a foot or
two, you will retain more light in the room

kind of curtains and have an artistic effect at

them with the exclamation of HTexasr

Fashion Notes.

Black watered ribbon sashes are very
stylish.
Tinsel ribbons are much used on ball
dresses.
Embroidered shoes and slippers are
much worn.
Gold embroidery is fashionable for
dress bonnets.
Braiding will retain its place as a fav-
orite trimming.
Undressed kids hold their own against
every other variety.
Canvas with lace border for trimming
is one of the novelties.
Dressed kids are shown with elabor-
ately embroidered backs.
Satin Khedive, plain and embroidered,
is used fer evening toilets.
Gold and silver threads glisten in dress
fabrics and in their trimmings.
Velvet is largely used for trimming
wool and silk as well as cotton dresses.
Pearl-embroidered fronts in all the
evening colors have lace to correspond.
The camel's-hair jackets are lovely to
look at and to wear, but rather expensive.
Norfolk bodices will be again worn, as
well as postillion bodices which are short
on the hips.
Every day adds newand exquisite de-
signs in gauze fans, and some reach a
fabulous price.
High dog collars of velvet are univer-
sally worn, but there is no limit either in
color or design.
The new short sleeves consist Of small
puffs or narrow double ruehings Of tulle,
crossing the top of the arm.
Barege is one of the leading fabrics for
spring wear and is shown in finely woven
and in open work lace effects.
Red velvet dresses have black watered
silk sashes on the left side, and the bod
ices are trimmed with jet passementeries.
When natural flowers are worn, a single
long-stemmed large flower is chosen in
preference to those small punches for
merly in use.
Cross-bar silk gauzes with lustrous
threads, gauze with moss rosebuds scat
tered over it, and French grapes in white
or creamy hues, are among the novelties.

rhro,vlng Rice at weddings.

Why do people throw rice about at
weddings Some persons seem to think
that rice is an emblem of a future fam
ily or Of future plenty, others that the
throwing of the rice is symbolical at
tick on the bridegroom by the relatives
Of the bride. The same explanation is
given of the throwing of old shoes, but
that is done at the commencement of n
expedition, and has nothing hostile in
prstence or intention. As to the rice
throwing, this, it seems, was an old Gus
tom in Macassar. While the marriage
service is going on, says Gcrvaise, in
Subscription du Royautne de Macaear''
Paris, 1851, zone or two of the men
servants secretly open q window and keep
throwing rice out into the air till night
fall, to divert the attention of the devil,
according to their account, and prevent
bis coming and interfering with the
amusements of the wedding" But why
the devils attention should be so easily
distracted is left unexplained. The custom
ID England must be borrowed, as rice is
not indigenous, and no n throws wheat.

Frozen 6I2 Feet Deep.

Scientific men have been perplexed fol
many years over the phenomenon of a
certain well at Yakutsk, Siberia. A Rus
sian merchant in 1928 began to dig the
we'll, but he gave up the task three year,
later, when he had dug down thirty feet
and was still in solidly frozen soil. Then
the Russian Academy of Sciences dug
away at the well for months, but stopped
when it had reached q depth of 3S2 feet,
when the ground was still frozen as
hard as a rock. In 1914 the academy
had the temperature of the excavation
carefully taken at various depths, and
from these data it was estimated that
the ground wa frozen to . depth OF
61s feet. Although the pole Of the
greatest cold Is ii this province Of
Yakutsk, not even the terrible severi-
IL Of the Siberian winters could freeze
the ground to a depth Of 900 feet.
Biologists have decided that the frozen
yslIev of the lower Lena IS a formation
Of the glacial period. They believe, in
short, that il froze solidly then, and

A kind heart is a fountain of gladness,

In friendship, as in Ioveewe are often

Wealth brings noble opportunities, and
competence is a proper object of pursuit,
but wealth, and even competence, may
be bought at too high a price.
1t doesn't follow that you must do a

runs: Because the cur has bitten me

There are some persons who never sue

anything; and others who regularly fail,
because the instant they find success in
their power they grow Indifferent and
give over the attempt:
