TIA Ks,


The ladies of Frostburg have presented
Our Own with new uniform consisting
of cap shirt, belt, pants and stockings
The material is steel-gray. flannel with
maroon trimmings, made by the \. q.
Spaulding Co. of the very best quality.
This gift is a surprise to the boys, as they
had made up their minds to do with the old
uniforms this season, owing to the very
great expense incurred in building the New
Park. They felt that any more expense
would be an imposition on baseball patrons
The members of the club as well as the
management are compelled, however, to
take this opportunity to thank the ladies
and generous people who helped them fOI
an outfit, though badly needed, was wholly
unexpected. And now we trust no action OF
ours will ever mar the pleasure of those who
have been so good.

Why he Resumed Chewing.

=. Now that the great army Of men who
gave up their bad habits on New Year day
have fairly started on the narrow path, it
will do no harm to mention the case of a
friend of mine in New York." said w. A.
Howe Of that city at the Raleigh.
This young man tried to give up the bad
habit of chewing tobacco. He consumed
twenty cents worth OF navy plug every
week and considered 1t not only a bad habit,
but extravagant. SO he stopped short. Then
he found the craving too strong and began
chewing again. At last he saw the adver-
tisement Of tobacco cure warranted
within a certain period OF time to cure the
craving entirely. At the end Of a week. In
stead OF his twenty cents worth of tobacco,
he had eaten $50 worth of the cure
hfty cents worth of chewing gum, ten cents
worth OF candy. twenty cents worth of
peanuts. two packages of cough drops and
two rubber erasers In the interest of econ
omy he has again taken up chewing to-
bacco.'
