Ball Twenty Years Ago.

He hadn't been in ball game for 30
years He was one Of the veterans who
talk about the old Knoxville Reds and
about the merits Of John Houk or Mar
tin Condor as pitchers and Of Will Hunt
as catcher.
''They didn't need any Of them bird
cages and chest protectors in the old
days, tell you. The ketcher stood
right up to the bat with nothin on but
an undershirt, and if he got hit in the
face he went right on with the game,
and what s them hams they carry round
on their hands?'' said the old fellow.
"Oh, all the catchers and felders
now wear mittsl It's easier to catch
flies, you know"
"Well, that beats my time!'' said the
old veteran. "Mitts? reckon that's to
keep their hands from gittin hurt. Why,
doggone my cats, the fielders in the
sixties didn' t wear nothin! They'd have
been ashamed. They didn't think moth
in of havin two or three broken fingers
and goin right along with the game. Say,
the wimmen could play this game, I
reckon. It's putty nigh as soft as long
tennis or krokay.
"Say, why didn't that chump ketch
that foul on the bound? Have to ketch
'em on the fly, does he? Why, by Jinks,
in my day feller had to know just
how it was goin to bounce, and you bet
it took good Judgment to tell which
way the thing was a-goin.
"And they lowed them jist as many
balls as they wanted and plenty of strikes
too. This newfangled concern AIM no
good. Mighty good thing that they
erected a monument to the mem'ry Of
Harry Wright, but I'll bet you he re-
membered what a good game they use
ter have in the old days when they only
had one pitcher and one ketcher.'
And the old man ra1nbled on and
thought this thing of making two or
three runs to game was bad piece of
playing. Knoxville Tribune.

WOMAN AND MUSIC.
The Two Are Bound Together In All Up
to Date Education.

The Two Are Bound Together In All Up
to Date Education.
If few years ago music had been de-
clared to be as necessary in education
as in mathematics or physics, the state
ment would have been received with
amazement, if not with derision. The
early aim of common school education
was the making of practical men and
women, and by practical" was meant
a preparation for the ordinary bread
winning affairs Of life. Not that the.
moral side of education was ignored,
but it was believed that the three RS
and the hard and fast sciences, together
with general indorsement Of religion
and good ethics, were sufficient factors
in character building and all that the
schools should supply. Music, litera-
ture and drawing. if they found any
place in the curriculum, were merely
incidents that were not sufficiently
PRACTICAL to be requisites, nor was their
more subtle and potent influence on the
character and the higher development
Of the mind appreciated or perceived.
Ornamental they might be, but they
were not believed to be useful. Only q
visionary sentimentality considered
these arts as necessary to public educa-
tion. Today art, in broad sense, occu-
pies far higher place in the regard Of
every educator Of note and Of every
man who is alive to the interests of
well balanced and symmetrical educa-
tion. In fact, the art influence In edu-
cation is coming to be adequately ap-
preoiated. and art is no longer considered
an incident in life, but rather the real
ity itself.
We are not attempting to detract
from the nobility of labor. That educa-
tion which founds industries, which
adds to the comfort of mankind, which
makes possible the cultivation Of the
arts, we must recognize, uphold and ad
mire, but that education which tells
Us we are not altogether commercial
machines; that to love something for its
innate beauty and not for its pecuniary
worth is wise and good; that by loving
harmony of sound We may come to
love harmony Of deeds; that tones
which speak to us of others sorrows,
making us forget self, may be Of more
worth in the end than much positive
science-such education we are begin
ming to revere and to see in it the most
practical method Of developing sweeter
women and nobler men.-Philadelphia

When man owns a blooded horse he is
always careful of it's health. He looks
after it's diet and is particular that the
feeding shall be regular and right. While
he is doing this it is likely as not that he
is himself suffering from some disease or
disorder. When the trouble gets SO bad
that he cannot work, he will begin to give
himself the care he gave the horse at the
start. Good pure, rich, red blood is the
best insurance against disease of any
kind. Almost all diseases come from I'M
pure or impoverished blond. Keep the
blood pure and strong and disease can find
no foothold.. That is the principle upon
which DR.. Pierce's Golden Medical Dis
covery works. It cleanses, purifies and
enriches the blood, puts and keeps the
whole body in perfect order; makes appe-
tite good, digestion strong. assimilation

century. He is Harvard man, but has
spent much time at Oxford and in Ber-

time call to succeed the Rev. Thomas

cepted it. After filing this place for 18
months he returned to London for
awhile but soon accepted call to the
