When the breezy, blooming bloom
ers are universally the go, how will
tailors press the creases in them, I
should like to know? When the baby's
head is nodding and it wants to take
a nap, how can mamma lull her dar-
ling in a bifurcated lap? How can
Bridget shoe the chickens with no skirt
to flop and fling, when the creatures
go grabbing in the garden in the
spring? But the question most annoy
ing that out speculations hatch: Can
she vie with men in action when she
goes to strike match?
An exchange moralizes as follows:
"What is the use growing about the
weather? It does no good, but helps
to make you unhappy. If you are a
little behind with your seeding owing
to the wet weather, member that the
condition of the ground is good and
that the crop will grow the faster for
it. Don't get mad. Nature will give
you time enough to. harvest this years
crop. Look on the bright side and
stop worrying about things you are not
responsible for, and you will be happy.

The Republican National Conven-

will be the eleventh held by that

that from St. Paul, Minneapolis and
all points in the Mississippi Valley,
the Burlington is the best and the
direct line to St. Louis.
Cultivate the habit of breathing
through the nose and taking deep

An English physician calls attention to
this fact that deep and forced respir-
alton will keep the entire body in a
glow in the coolest weather, no matter
how thinly one may be clad. He was
himself half frozen to death one night,
and began taking deep breaths and
keeping the air in the lungs as long as
possible. The result was that he was
thoroughly comfortable in few
minutes. The deep respirations, he
says, stimulate the blood currents by a
direct muscular exertion, and cause
the entire system to become pervaded

There are several estates hanging
fire in the probate court Of Mile Laos
county, the probating of which has
been commenced but never completed.
Some of these date back ten and fifteen
years or even longer. Probate pro
ceedings were begun, and then for
some reason abandoned with the re
suit that matters are in no better
shape. than if the estates had never
been brough hit into the court. In cases
where real estate is involved such a
course is very likely to lead to COM
plications which it may be difficult to
untangle. Sooner or later this pro
batting must be completed, and the
earlier this is attended to the more
generally satisfactory to all concerned
will the results be.

Says the Washington Team Do Not
Sacrifice Enough


Editor Times: Scarcely a day passes with
out an item appearing in the local papers to
the effect thatthe Senators are great team
workers and sacrifice hitters; that they
practice these important factors daily.
Does anyone ever see the results? Had some
little sacrificing been introduced in the
game yesterday with Phil adelphia. the
score would surely have been closer and DOS
sib!y in our favor.
In the first inning, Brown, first up, drew
base on balls. Joyce then attempted to
smash it cut-result, any easy double play
from Hallman to Brouthers Next moment
Abbey singled. Had Joycesa crificed. Brown
would have scored from second on the hit.
In the fifth, Demontreville, first up, reach
ed first on Nash's error. King. who can
sacrifice if he tries, ''sma shed'' it out.
Result, Demontreville forced at second.
Next instant Brown singled Had Demont-
reyille been sacrificed to second he would
have scored on the hit.
In the sixth selbach, first up. got his
base on balls; Cartwright "smaslied'' it
and flied out to short right. Again in the
eighth, Selbach reached first on an error;
Cartwright smashed it to second base.
Result, an easy double play. Yet Phila-
delphia, although four runs in the lead,
gave splendid exhibition of team work.
III the eighth Nash got his base ON balls
and Carsey was called out ON strikes iD
attempting to sacrifice Nash to second.
How many close games could be won by a
club sacrificing at the right moment?
