gions, will be the first explorer to use the
bicycle in quest of the north pole. The
wheel was invented by A. T. Firth, was
successfully used upon the ice in Chicago,
and Mr.. Wellman requested its shipment
to Norway to accompany the explorers on
their journey northward. The machine is
built upon the lines of the bicycle, of steel
tubing and aluminium throughout, and is
attachable to any safety In q few minutes.
An additional fork is run from the front
fork of the bicycle frame to the forward
runner, thence to the rear runner and up to
the bicycle frame again.
The weight of the rider is thus entirely
upon the runners or skates, which are made
of the lightest material possible. The power
of propulsion is furnished by the driving
gear of the bicycle, the chain gear being at
tached to propelled drive wheel set in a
movable frame pivoted at the back of the
machine, allowing this drive wheel to be
constantly upon the surface of the ice or
snow and thus overcoming all irregulari-
ties met. The only pressure upon this
drive wheel is it's own weight and that dis
tributed to it through the action of the
rider upon the pedals. The angle of strain
from the chain may be so adjusted and
changed by raising or lowering the pivoted
drive wheel frame that the friction upon
the driving mechanism Is brought to the
lowest possible point.
There is great international race toward
the arctic explorers goal this year between
Peary and Wellman of America, Jackson
of England and Nansen of Norway, and
every bicyclst at least will wish Wellman
to get the pole.

THE ANATOMlST.

About two-thirds of pint of air is in
hailed and eXhaled at each breath of ordi-
nary respiration.
1t has been calculated that the whole
number of sweat glands or pores in the skin
is upward of 100000.
1t is estimated that in a lifetime of three
score years and ten the heart beats not less
than 2,53S, S4S, 900 times.
An amount of blood equal TO all that con-
tanned in the body passes through the heart
once every three minutes.
A German writer in the London Standard
claims that the heart continues to grow
until after the fiftieth birthday.
The lifting power of the heart, according
to DR.. Richardson, is equal to the feat OF
raising five tons one foot per hour
There is school of learned specialists
who hold that the white cells of the blood
are traps for the destruction of microbes.
Every well developed adult of the human
species has lung surface equal to 1,40O
square feet. The hearts power is sufficient
to lift itself 200 feet each hour.
Each perspiratory duct is one-fourth of
an inch in length, the total length in all the
human body being abont nine miles. The
human heart weighs from s to II ounces
and beats 100, 900 times in "a hours.-St.

Big FOUR OF THE BOX.

FEW PITCHERS ARE FIRST CLASS.

Remarkable Pitcher of the Century.

In Twenty-Five Years but Twenty-eight
ed Truly Great-James Devlin the Most
Remarkable Pitcher of the Century.
One of the requisites most necessary to a
baseball teams success is good pitching.
There may be a nine of terrific batsmen
excellent f1elders and fleet base runners, but
If the pitching be poor, good work with the
bat, in the field or on bases is often multi
fed by the weakness in the box.
First class pitchers have always been to
the profession of baseball what star TRACE
dams have been to the American stage, with
this eXception-that whereas they appear
almost as seldom on the stage of action
they remain a much less time The great
pitchers who have arisen to fame and lasted
any reasonable length of time have been
very few and can be counted without the
aid of three figures. From Brainerd to
Rusie is period of little more than score
of years. In this time let us see how many
pitchers lived who earned the right to be
called stars of the first magnitude.
Brainerd himself was king Of his class
and time His hand never passed above
the plane of his belt in delivering the ball
His delivery was purely of the underhand
kind. 1t was ''pitch' in the real sense of
the word, and not a throw" as is the de-
livery of this day. Yet he had wonderful
swiftness
After Brainerd came Zetlne. Then there
was Matthews. Spalding for few years
reigned as king of the pitchers and proba-
bly, received as much compensation for his
first season in Boston as was ever paid in
year to any pitcher who ever played profess
sionally. Bradley, too, had his year of
bright prominence when the dead ball gave
him chance to put into use his peculiar
powers of pitching.
AT the close of the seventies the greatest
pitcher of the century, in my estimation,
arose and fell. 1t is needless to say his name
was James Devlin. No man since his day
has robbed him or his memory of the crown.
But his greatness was his ruin. His
prowess was purchased by gamblers He
gave himself up to evil companions, who
dragged him down to disgrace. Devlin was
one of the quartet whose conviction of
crooked play and life punishment served to
place baseball high up in the public esti-
national the top of honest out of doors
sports In the short period of five years
Devlin sank from the topmost pinnacle OF
pitchers fame to pauper's grave.
After Devlin came Bond of the Bostons,
Radbourne, Corcoran, Goldsmith, Keefe,
Welch, Nolan, Mccormick, White, Calvin,
Richmond, Whitney, Clarkson, Hutchi-
son, Ramsey, kilroy, Mullane, Stivetts,

PRETTY CHILDREN.

G0Od Looks Dependent Largely on tho
Care Bestowed While They Were Infants.
A mother who has tried experiment.
ing on her own little ones with success
writes as follows in The Housewife: AS
soon as the nurse has left take the child
in hand yourself. In the morning, after
the bath, put it through its exercises.
Take the tiny button Of a nose between
your finger and thumb, just above the
apology for bridge, move your fingers
gently down two or three times to the
tip. Be sure you do this tenderly, or
you may hurt the delicate, barely set
cartilage, or bring the flesh down too
much, and so make the nose thick at the
end. The happy medium is easy to find.
Wet the first finger and gently follow
the shape of the eyebrows (the first
month or two there is often no hair to
mark where they ought to be) to insure a
delicate arch and finely penciled point
instead of wide spreading straight line.
These two should be done without fail
every day till the child is or s. One
day, when the baby is asleep, let it's eye
lashes be cut ever so little. If nervous
yourself, do not attempt it, as one false
slip may seriously injure the child. In
that case get some one else to supply
your place-nurse, friend or Your family
doctor.
AS to the hair itself, d great deal can
be done to prevent child having lank,
heavy hair. From the time the first few
hairs begin to appear On Gaby's head, di.
rectly it has been bathed, and while its
hair is wet, brush it up the wrong way.
1t may not look so trim and tidy as when
brushed smoothly down, but it is worth
a good deal to insure curly hair, and the
treatment will do much in most cases.
When first the hair begins to grow in
real earnest, do not let it get long and
straggly. Have it cut frequently, though
only just a shaving need be taken off
each time.
have purposely left the most impor-
tant rule to the last. If you want pretty
children, keep them happy. I do not
mean spoil them, but try to understand
their characters, to make them obey by
the rule of love, and above all don't
keep on scolding them. Peevishness,
which, by causing the corners of child's
mouth to droop, would spoil a baby
Venus, is generally the result of i'll
health. Treat it as such. One final word:
If your children grow up good looking,
do not allow your friends to tell them so,
for vanity and self consciousness neu-
tralize the charms of childhood as of
maturity.

The Safety Prize Fight.

Something more harmless, yet interesting,
in the line of prize fights has been intro
duced at the Puddlers' Athletic club, says
the Louisville Courier ournal. 1t is termed
the safety prize fight. The contestants each
wear three ounce gloves. They stand di-
rectly opposite each other, as in regular
fight. but between them is a punching bag
made fast to the ceiling and floor by means
of a number of bands. Instead of hitting
each other with the hard gloves, the fight
ers strike the air inflated bag, trying to
make the bag hit the opponent. The fight
Is more one of endurance than science. II
one of the fighters is struck squarely in the
face, he is sure to be knocked flat on his
back. For this reason ducking is great
feature of the fight. 1t is very interesting
to the spectators and keeps them laughing
most of the time.

Varied Accomplishments.
Chief Justice Mercer Beasley of the
New Jersey supreme court, whose decl-

Democratic and Republican members of
the state senate, is recognized as one of
the most accomplished men in the state.
He is we'll posted on art, science and

was born in Hawaii. His parents were
among the first American missionaries
who went to the islands in 1920. He is
we'll known as lawyer in Honolulu
and has been prominent for long time
in the republican movement there. He
was the practical leader of the revolu-
tionary cabinet of 1888 and was one of
the commissioners sent to Washington
by the provisional government to nego-

Governor Isaac Williamson. He entered
Princeton college when a lad, and after
remaining there but a year returned to
Trenton to study with his father and
read law under the direction of Samuel
H. Southland. He afterward entered the
Office of ex-Chancellor Isaac H. William
son of Elizabeth.
In 1888 he was admitted to practice at
the September term of court. He be-
came counselor in 1S42. He was ap-
pointed chief justice by Governor Par
ker in 1864. He has always been con-
sidered one of the ablest lawyers in the
state, and his fame as chief justice is
recognized abroad as we'll as at home.
His decisions are constantly quoted, and
it is conceded that few, if any, of the
eminent American jurists possess a more
accurate or extensive knowledge of law.
In his younger days Justice Beasley
was city solicitor of Trenton, for which
he received the muniicent sum of SIS a
year. In 1851 he was the Wing candi-
date for mayor of Trenton, but he was
defeated by William Nupton. In 1850
he served as president of the Trenton
common council. His circuit as chief
