MARTINsvILLE, Va, Oct. 3.-The
warm weather of last week again
brought out the baseball fanatics and
the result was match game Satur-
day between the Patrick Henry Acad-
envy and the Ruffner Institute. The
score was quite large but it was very
pretty game nevertheless. The
score by innings was:

tc..eioI CORRESPONDENCE.

First TO bloom in the spring, the almond
is last TO mature in the fall The whole
spring and summer long il hangs there. a
green peach for all the world, and after
the first few weeks never increasing in
size or changing in appearance. The seam
IS deeper than III most peaches, but not
deeper than in the ripe apricot.
Late in August this seam will be seen 20
have opened in few of the earliest. The
growers anxiety now reaches its climax.
VIII his almonds open and remain open
until harvested, or will the drupe remain
closed or only partially open and then close
tight again? The whole profit Of the crop
may depend on this question. 1t may cost
half they are worth TO pick and husk them.
The nuts are knocked off the trees with
long poles. Where they have opened nice
ly they are allowed 20 drop on the bare
ground and are husked as they are picked
up. The picker's delight IL he is working
by the bushel or box, is TO see the ground
covered with nuts that the stroke Of the
pole and the impact against the clods have
completely hrsked, 80 that he has nothing
20 do but throw them into his basket.
Those that do not are busked with the
fingers. J. Philpott In Popular
Science MONTH";.

seconds in the freshmen games. Later in
the varsity games he took the 220 yards
dash in % 3-5 seconds.
In the Princeton spring games he was
first in the 100 yards handicap by the ex-
cellent time Of 10 seconds, and at the sub
sequent Yale-Haryard games he won the
100 yards dash in 10 Is seconds and the 22O
Yards dash In % % seconds. He captured
the same events later at the intercollegiate
games in 10 Is seconds and % seconds.
Three watches on this occasion registered
the 100 yards dash at 10 seconds, but the
judges made it 10 Is.
Ii is not improbable that the time was
10 seconds, the same made by Swayne in
the Princeton games. Swaynes record Of
even time in the 200 yards dash was par
ticularly creditable. At the games OF the
New York Athletic club in June Swayne
defeated Harry Jewett, the crack runner
of the Detroit Athletic club, in the 22o
yards dash in % 3-5 seconds on a curved
track. IL will be seen from the above that
Swayne has lowered his record in the 100
yards dash 3-5 Of a second, and in the 22C
yards 2 seconds.

Increase of Wealth.

The Inhabitants Of this United Kingdom
make enormous additions TO their wealth
every year. Mr.. Giffen has attempted an
estimate OF the average additional task Of
enormous difficulty because prices go up
and down, and the thing that may be
worth a certain sum today may be worth
more or less this day twelvemonth though
absolutely unchanged in itself. 1t is as
completely the same thing as possible with
human creations, but the selling price
changes. However, Mr. Giffen has made
out that IN the course Of ten years, 1876 to
1885, the wealth Of the nation increased
from eS5O0, 900 900 to go, 600 O0O, 900, or, let
us say, at least ESQ. 00O.0 year,. II.

100 yards in 10 3-5 seconds ana the q"

FASCINATION.

Kennel clubs show in New York last
February. A dog Of any age must be a
phenomenon TO get into the challenge
class, but Fascination, although only
puppy, won the challenge prize as well as
first honors in the puppy class.
His success was continued at Philadel-
phia, Boston, Washington and other big
shows, and before he was year old this
handsome son OF Obadiah and Amusement
had won ten first and four special prizes.
He was bred by George Bell, OF Toronto.
Fascination's first season was a remark
able one, and probably no dog Of the same
age in America ever made so good a record.

Canadians probably breed the best cocker

dogs are of a much higher class than
those reared in England, and take nearly

the best of them is the puppy Fascination.

Collie and Cholera Morbus.

Collie, cholera morbus, cramp and
many other affections of the stomach
and bowels prevalent at this time of
year are due to two causes. First, the
depressing effect of the hot weather
upon the nervous system, and second =,
the use of green fruit, cucumbers,
melons, etc. No one is safe from pain
full and even dangerous attacks of
these affections unless unusual pre-
cautions are taken at this time of
year. A tablespoonful of Pe-ru-na
taken before each meal is complete
protection against these maladies.
Pe-ru-na is not only preventative of
collie, cholera morbus, cramps, stom-
ach ache, summer diarrh9a and chol-
era, but is also prompt cure for
these diseases. Where the attack is
very severe and painful wine-glass-
full of Pe-ru-na should be taken at
once, followed by two tablespoonful
doses until complete relief is obtained
This never fails in single case. In
cases of less severity tablespoonful
every hour is sufficient. No one
should neglect the precaution OF tax
ing a dose of Pe-ru-na b"l1 each
meal, until the hot season l. yer

The March of the Jennings.

Few animals are more stupid than IL e
jennings, species of rodent in Norway
and Sweden like the common water rat Of
America. They are exceedingly voracious
and bite at anything and everything. l

only idea of the lemming would be to bite

numbers from the northern districts,
where the food supply has given out, and
march through Scandinavia in two great
armies separated by the Kiolens range.-J.
