A Caroline Islands Legend.

The Caroline islands group includes
besides coral islands five mountainous
islands Of basaltic formation, beautiful
and fertile with rivers and springs.
Among the many queer legends of
these children of the Pacific there Is
none mere highly improbable than
their theory as to the origin of these is
lands and their inhabitants. They
think they themselves were very strong
In the water-in facr, they lived in 1t.
The story goes that woman and her
children were floating around on the
reef when n man appeared from the
west with basket of soil on his shoul-
ders. He had started out to make an
island with mountain on 1t. One of
the children cried out to him, Give us
little soil to make a place for our
mother to rest, for she Is very weak
and cannot swim" He took out a
handful of the earth and threw it
down, making an island. As the man
was going on his way over the water
the son slyly made hole in the bas-
ket, so as he proceeded on his way he
left a trail of land behind. Suddenly
he became conscious that the basket
seemed light, and looking around. he
saw the land. In his anger he turned
about and trod upon 1t, and thus the is
lands were formed.

DANGER FROM OVEREATlNG.
Insanity Often Caused by Too Iiber-
al Indulgence In Food.

1t is well known to the few medical
men that many cases Of insanity are
directly due to overeatlng and the con-
sequent absorption into the circulation
of toxic matters from the intestinal
tract, and melancholia, whether in mild
or severe form, is generally due to this
cause. Violent paroxysms of temper.
whether in children or adults, are often
properly referable to bad state Of the
blood from this auto toxemia, as are in
deed the exceedingly exuberant spirits
of old or young at times. Just as we
observe in alcoholic poisoning, some
individuals are made temporarily jolly
and good natured; others are made
ugly and unreasonable.
In view of this condition Of affairs
isn't it rather q wise plan for us all to
consider rather the needs of the or
ganism for food than the mere Ques-
ton of palate tickling, 10 aim to eat
good instead Of bad food and enough
of it-that is, not too much-to have
the conditions about right when we
take our meals; in brief to try and
treat our bodies decently even though
we act from purely sensual point of
view? In no other way can we secure
the highest possible degree Of pleasure
on the average, while by acting thus
sensihly we may enjoy practical i'm
munity from disease.
The more exercise we take under
proper conditions, the more we are ex-
posed to cold, and the clearer we keep
from excess in clothing the mvre we
may eat; hence, In order to enjoy the
fullest measure of table pleasures, we
must live actively, wear as little cloth
ing as is consistent with comfort and
do considerable "roughing"
called hardening. With all this we
should take our meals at times when
the body or brain is not overtired, and
when we "have leisure to digest" and,
of all things, we should never eat un-
less we are hungry. To eat without an
appetite is self abuse Of the most
stupid sort, since it affords no pleasire
and is productive of disease.-Physici

names, but upon reflection the action
was reconsidered and all Second"
teams were barred.
Several SUGGESTIONS, all tending to.
ward an equitable settlement of the
much mooted question, were made.
One was to have two tournaments, one
among the first" team, and other
among the second best players, con-
Guiding with a series between the win
ners.
The only definite thing accomplished
at the meeting was the decision to
postpone the opening of the contest un-
til the second week in January.
CLEvELAND'S STAR BOwLERS.
Mr.. Frank Cohen, proprietor of the
Howard ST. bowling alley, is negotiat-
ing with the 'All Cleveland" bowlers
for an exhibition of three games with
Akron teams in the near future The
"All Cleveland" team is composed of
the best ten-pin bowlers in the Forest
City and they will represent their city
in the National tournamnet in Chica-
go. The teams appearance in this
city should create an added interest
in the great winter sport.
WILL BOWL JAN. o.
The Peerless bowling team cleared
$40 on its dance and the proceeds will
be used to partly defray the teams
expenses to Chicago to participate in
the National tournament. The Peer
less bowlers are scheduled to appear
upon the Chicago alleys Jan. 0. They
will make their headquarters at the
Palmer House.
SPECIAL TRAIN.
Friends of Art simms propose to run
a special train to Canton the night
of the contest with Louden Campbell.
The Akron lightweight is down to
weight and in fine condition. During
his brief lay of Art took on weight
rapidly. When he stepped on the
scales at the South End Athletic club,
| to begin training for the Campbell go,
he weighed 1877 pounds 1t is a ques-
tion whether Art will be able to get
down to 1875 IL he continues to take
on flesh as he has this winter. The
forfeit for the go with Campbell has
been posted with Buck Wallace at
Canton. Both men agree to weigh in
under 1870, Jan. 2, the day of the con-
/ test. They will step on the scales at
3 o'clock. Canton sports are anxious
/ TO break even on the Finnerty fight
and it is probable that they will have
money to wager against Simms If
this develops to be the fact, their
money will not go begging as Akron
admirers of Art will have bales Of
the same stuff.
