baseball Terms.

II mentioned the other day as base
ball term that had fallen into decay"
said MIR. Bitterly, "thc goose egg.
This term, time honored and once COM
monty employed, is now no longer
heard Two other terms, once as famil-
lar and almost as commonly used, but
now put away on the same shelf with
tho goose egg, are the 'redhot grounder'
and the daisy cutter.
1.-The daisies grow now just as they
did then, for which let US he duly CRATE
full, but the baseball is daisy cutter
no longer. The balls are heated now
as redhot us ever-if anything, little
hotter-but such ball is no longer de-
scribed by the phrase, once familiar, a
'redhot grounder. The extreme warmth
of the sphere is now referred to i'll some
other manner.
1.-The fact is that i'll baseball, as in
all things else, fashions change, and
phrases that today seem to glow with
descriptive fervor may tomorrow seem
dull and spiritless indeed. New York

BUSINESS TACT.
A Sermon on How to Get and Hold
Customers.

A Sermon On How to Get and Hold
Customers.
In paper entitled Chow to Get and
Hold Customers, read by S. Bricker of
Listowell, Ont, at the annual meeting of
the Ontario Hardware association, he said:
'The business man who looks at deliver
ing his goods and getting his money as
the only thing which is related to each
transaction has very important lesson to
learn No doubt there are some who differ
with me in this particular and say; Bust
ness is business and friendship forms no
part of it. Admitting that it is all bust
ness and THAT the customer gets value
equal to his money, his future patronage is
nevertheless to be considered and solicited
apart from his money. Between the two
we may not be Yble to make the distirc-
ton very quickly, but there is distinc-
ton nevertheless, and he who has careful
~ studied the philosophy of trade can
readily define it.
"a customers money is only a matter
of the moment and has reference to a par
ticular transaction. His patronage, his
good will, his influence, however, are of
paramount Importance, for which we
should be willing to forego very much that
he may be retained with the house. A
customer who buys but one bill is not
profitable except to the extent of his pur
chase. When we get a chance to sell to a
party one bill, we are in duty bound to
our business to treat him SO well that
when be leaves us he will say, When re-
quire anything more in this line, l will
buy it from this man. Since we are so
inevitably dependent upon each other and
necessarily helpers of each other, it would
be very unwise and almost certain ruin
for merchant to establish the rule that he
will do just as he pleases and not solicit
the good will or favor of any one. Ability
to satisfy customer with your goods will
induce him to buy. Politeness and honest
, treatment will induce him to buy again. !"

The Bigger Fool.

Men who have worn the judicial ermine
generally have certain privileges in court
that the struggling young lawyer would
make any sacrifice to obtain. A newly
admitted member of the bar made a sug-
gestiye remark to ex-Judge Curtis of New
York about this, and the old gentleman
became very angry. When he gets mad,
he, lets himself loose. He did SO on this
occasion, but finally wound up with: II
am a fool l am the biggest fool on
earthl" The youngster attempted to
soothe him with the remark: Judge, all
men are fools at times / have been fool
myself" The enraged old lawyer glared
at him. "You fooI?'' he sneered. Yes,
and bigger fool than you, judge" This
caused the judge to tear the little hair left
upon his venerable head. g deny it, sirl''
he shouted. at is lie You could never
be bigger fool than I. You have not the
capacity, sir; not the capacity l"-San

NosEsLgED.
What. 1t Is That Causes It and How 1t
Should Be Remedied.

Should Be Remedied.
Plipy regarded nosebleed as one of the
distinctive characteristics of the human
race, for he said that man is the only
creature from whom blood flows at the
nostrils," and, properly understood, he
was right OF course blood will flow from
any part of any animal when the arteries
or veins of that part are opened, but it is a
fact that nosebleed, occurring without any
apparent cause, is seldom, if ever, seen in
animals. The reason for this human pc
culiarity is that the membrane lining the
nostrils in man is especially full of blood
vessels. the walls of which are weak and
easily ruptured by slight causes
1t is usually very easy to recognize nose
bleed, but sometimes the blood flows back
ward into the throat and then is coughed
up or vomited and may be thought to
come from a hemorrhage of the lungs or
stomach, and so cause much needless
alarm.
AS a rule. nosebleed is a thing of slight
Importance and stops of itself after a little
while, but the blood may escape in such
quantity or the bleeding may continue so
long that the patient is greatly weakened.
When occurring in children, it has ordi-
narily no significance, though this is not
always to be taken for granted, but in old
er persons it may be symptom of some
other illness, such as the beginning of ty-
phoid fever or a trouble of the liver or
heart.
Nosebleed is one of the common mani
festations of that curious condition in
which there is a tendency to severe hemor-
rhage after any slight injury or even with
out any cause that can be discovered.
Children with this predisposition, often
called "bleeders, suffer from frequent
and uncomfortable attacks of nosebleed
and sometimes die in one of them in spite
of all efforts to control the hemorrhage.
Ordinarily there is little to be done, for
the bleeding usually stops of itself The
child should be made to sit quietly in a
chair with the head only slightly inclined
forward, just enough to let the drops fall
clear of the lips into basin. All clothing
should be loosened about the neck. Ice
may be applied to the back of the neck, or
ice water may be dashed into the face or
made to trickle down the back.
1t is useful also to insert little piece
of ice into the bleeding nostril-sometimes
the effect is better if the ice is put into the
other nostril-and retain it there for a mo-
ment or two, or still better plan is to
snuff up mixture of alcohol and water as
hot as it can be borne. The Introduction
of cobwebs into the bleeding nostril often
induces coagulation, or the same purpose
may be served by little wad of loose
worsted which has been picked apart.
If simple measures fail, the physician
should be summoned before exhaustion

A Musical Monsetran.

Acting upon the idea that mice are very
sensitive to music, Belgian manufacturer
has substituted a musical mousetrap for
the common trap. Instead of batting the
apparatus with bit of cheese or lard the
inventor has hidden in double bottom a
small music box, which plays automatic
ally various popular airs of the country.
The mice, he insists, are drawn irresistibly
toward the music box, and in order to hear
better they step into the trap and find
themselves prisoners

accomplish in spite of i'll fortune. Verest-

ten by a leopard some years ago that it
had to be ampntated. On the field of bat
tie the middle finger of his right hand was
made useless by a shot By fall ON the
steppes later the center bones Of the same
hand were shattered. Nevertheless Verest-
chagin is one of the foremost painters in
Russia and makes as dexterous use of his
right hand, famed as it is, as any man in

JOE DoYLE'S HUNT FOR A JOB.
HIS long WAIT AT WASHINGTON
BEGINS TO WEARY HIM

His Father Said 20 Have Announced
Few Weeks Ago That Joe Would
Not Return Until He Had His Com
sion In His Notwithstanding Gage
said to Have Announced That No
Change Would he Made In the
savannah COIIectOrship at Present
Washington. July Joe Doyle was
visitor at the white house to-day, but he
could not see the President. He proceed
ed as far rs Private Secretary Porter's
room, and there he was checked by the
announcement that the President was
holding a special meeting of the cabinet.
Mr.. Doyle Is considerably annoyed by
the recent statement of Collector Beck
with that Secretary Gage has assured
him that no immediate change in the Sa-
vannah custom house is contemplated. Mr..
Doyle ST., declared a few weeks ago, that
his son Joe was in Washington and would
not return until he had his commission
in his pocket.
As a matter Of fact, Joe Doyle has no
positive information on the subjest of the
collectorship. He was looking for COM
fort at the white house to-day, but re-
ceived no assurances. He is hopeful, as
are all other place hunters, but time Is
beginning to hang heavily upon his hands,
and he may have to return to Savannah
without waiting for his commission.
Representative Livingston, with DR.
Hopkins of Atlanta, made another call
upon the President to-day. The Atlanta
divine has not given up all hope of secur-
ing a foreign appointment and his at
tention Is now turned towards South
America with the hope of being appointed
minister to Costa Rica, or the Argentine
Republic.
