know some houses, we'll built and
handsomely furnished, where it Is not
pleasant to be even q visitor. Sharp,
angry tones resound through them from
morning to night, and the influence is
as contagious as measles, and much
more to be dreaded in household. The
children catch it, and it lasts for life,
an incurable disease. A friend has
such neighbor within hearing Of her
house, when doors and windows are
open, and even Poll Parrot has caught
the tune and delights in screaming and
scolding, until she has been sent into
the country to improve her habits.
Children catch cross tones quicker than
parrots. When mother sets the exam
pie, you will scarcely hear pleasant
word among the children in their plays
with each other. Yet the discipline OF
such family is always weak and irreg-
ular. The children expect 80 much
scolding before they do any thing they
are bid; while in many home, where
the low, firm tone Of the mother, or q
decided look of her steady eye, is law,
they never think of disobedience, either
in or out Of her sight.
Oh, mothers, 1t is worth great deal
to cultivate that excellent thing in q
woman" low, sweet voice. If you are
ever SO much tired by the mischievous
or wilful prsnks Of the little enes, speak
low. 1t will be a great help to you TO
even try to be patient and cheerful, If
you can not wholly succeed. Anger
makes you wretched. and your children
also. Impatient, angry tones never did
the heart good, but plenty Of evil. You
can not have tho excuse for them that
they tighten your burdens; they only
make them ten times heavier. For your
own sake, as we'll as your childrep's
sake, learn to speak low. They will
remember that tone when your head is
under the willows. So, too, would they
remember harsh and angry voice.

not interfered with would have passed

It will be seen at once that the game
IL exceedingly simple and that the rules
allow the players wide latitude when
playing. At the same time 1t involves
as much exercise as either football or
lacrosse without being especially dan
gcrous. In the way Of educating the
eye as we'll as the limbs to quickness II
is in some respects superior to either.
In football large sphere is used and
the eye is called upon to perform but
little labor. In lacrosse the ball used
is small, but it is driven by q sort OF
q scoop-net so to speak.
However, comparisons aside, hurting
has its own excellen:ies, and as q win
ter game on the ground or on the ice II
has no superior. for not only is 1t health
full. but 1t Is safe, simple and intensely
enjoyable. Any one can play it who
can learn to play it. and any one who
can not learn to play 1t can learn moth
ing, for 1t is simplicity itself.
The outfit required is easily acquired. A
ball and stick with crook on one end
and there you are. All that is needed
then is clear day and level field. On
crisp, cold day there is nothing that
will stir up the blood, liven up the
muscles and invigorate one generally in
q more complete manner than q good,
lively game of hurting. The game Is
played in an hour, with q short rest in
the middle Of the game, so there is nc
danger Of any one in ordinarily good
health suffering from over-exertion.
To become an expert hurler no pecul.
lar qualifications are required. A small
man can play as we'll as big one, all other
things being equal. Activity is the
main thing, combined with quickness
of sight and good Judgment which en-
ables the player to use his hurly with
accuracy and effect
Among professional athletes the game
of hurting is hardly likely to become
popular, but among gentlemen amateurs
it ought for many reasons to become
favorite game. To business men and
men of sedentary habits it furnishes
rare facilities for keeping in good physi-
cal condition, the exercise being suf'
ficient for this without being too severe
for persons unused to physical exertion.
At present hurting is all too little
known. 1t would be we'll If every ath'
letic club would introduce 1t as one Of
the features of its regular games. Once
the public came to know its good points,
it could scarcely fail to become widely
popular. samuel n. Crane, Pitcher

brought into close hand-to-hand con-
tests Of skill, strength and endurance.
The match is always decided by the
number of goals made. In some games
no goals are made-although this is
unusual-and in some others the score
as to goals may be tie. In such cases
1t is settled by the number Of points.
1t Is not intended that the hand shall
touch the ball any more than is possible
when hurting. The ball can not be
lifted of the ground with the hands
when it is in play. 1t may be struck
with the hand, however, or 1t may be
kicked. It may be also caught on the
fly and the player so catching 1t may hit
It in any way he chooses. He may not,
however, hold 1t or run with it. the de-
sign being to keep the ball free and con-
stantly in play. Hitting both right and
left is allowed.
Where any rule of the game is broken,
the referee may allow free hit or puck
IL he see TT In these free hits except
hit from goal, the ball should not be
held in hand. II the ball strike by
stander near the lines, except tho

meet the ball when 1t strikes It
When the teams are drawn up ready
to play the referee becomes the dictator
Of the game He is, however, assisted
by four others, two goal umpires and
two field umpires The captains OF the
teams toss for choice Of sides Of the
field. Then the hurlers, standing in line
on the field opposite each other, ad-
vance, shake hands or catch hurlys, as
the case may be, after which they re-
tire into position. Then the referee,
taking up q position at one end, losses
the ball between the lines OF opposing
players, taking care not to throw 1t
higher than their heads. This is sig
nal for the game to begin. And from
this time on there is struggle, and
when the teams are at all we'll matched
it is always an exciting one. The game,
as seen in America, is played under the
rules of the Gaelic Athletic Association,
which, while simple, are strict in the
sense that they thoroughly frown down
all smuggling or rough or crooked play
ing.
No player is allowed to catch another
with his hands, nor can there be any
tripping, pushing from behind or but
ting with the head. u Is not allowed
for q player to bring his hurly into con-
tact with another players person, and 1t
Is in enforcing this rule that most
trouble is had. Its enforcement Is nee
essary, however, for otherwise every
game would be marked by broken
heads. For any breach Of these rules
the referee is fully empowered to act.
He may disqualify the guilty player for
the game. In hurting, the disqualifca-
ton of man means the loss Of one to
his side. In football, when o man is
disqualified another may take his place,
but this is not SO in hurting, and the re-
suit is that team captains anxious to
lose no men see to it that the rules are
obeyed. The referee can disqualify o
player for any play that he may con.
slider improper. If man is accidental
ly injured his place may be filed by
another.
II any player drives the ball over the
side line of the field, and it does not re-
bound, no player can follow and return
it. This must be done by the referee or
an umpire. The players must remain
thirty feet from the line until the ball
lie again thrown into the field and has
touched the ground, after which it again
becomes a live ball.
When . ball is driven over the goal
line then the goal-keeper has chance
to distinguish himself, for he gets a
chance to hit the ball at his own free
will without molestation from the other
players. To use the jargon Of the game.
he gets free puck" from goal into the
field. In other words, he has free hit
of the ball on the fly, and no player on
the opposite side can come nearer than
the twenty-one yard line until the ball
is struck. while none Of the strikers
side can be farther away from his own
goal than the center Of the field. These
free pucks are always followed by the
widest sort of scrimmages, and are al
ways an exciting feature Of game that
ordinarily is exciting enough.
But, for that matter, there are exciting
features of the game just as there are
in any game where the players are
