The BAH Games Yesterday.

| The Bali Games Yesterday.
Yesterday Afternoon at Logan
before a crowd Of unusual size,
Mo. Valley defeated Modale in
the final game of a series be-
tween the teams representing
Woodbine, Modale and Mo.
Valley. After Tuesdays game
between Woodbine and Mo.
Valley, which resulted in a vic
tory for the Valley by a score
of 6 to 4, the interest in the
game increased as the time for
the deciding game drew near.
In order to see who should line
up for the struggle of the day,
it was necessary for Modale and
Woodbine to play a game We'd
nesday forenoon to decide who
should meet the Valley boys to
battle for first place. After
playing a fine game in which
both teams put up a clean
article of ball, Modale pulled off
the victory, scoring 4 runs
while Woodbine gathered in
one lone tally. This gave Mo-
dale the opportunity of meeting
the Valley in the final game of
the three, the winner to take
the larger share of the purse,
as we'll as being considered the
star team of the county. The
hackers and friends of the two
teams We're certain they had
the better of the argument and
were willing to back their judg-
ment with a bit of coin where
the opportunity afforded it.
The game was called at about
3:20 p. m. with Middleton in
the box for Modale and Riley
doing like work for Mo. Valley.
The Valley boys were first up
and started the rolling with
a rush, making four base hits
and two runs, while Modale fol-
lowed with one run scored, one
a hit, a base on balls, and an err
ror. From this on the Valley
boys batted the ball very hard,
which really won them the
game, as their errors were
enough to keep Modale close up
nearly all the while.
The score follows:

Hot Weather Advice.

Hot weather advice is seasonable,
and bears frequent repetition. Those
people who have their vacation. ample
yard room, and can have a cool house,
and electric fans in Office and means
and opportunity for lowering the
temperature or lOiling at ease have no
reason to complain of the highest
temperature markings. bnt there are
quarters where the air cannot be
changed, where no breeze can pene-
trate. where the direct rays of the sun
work their helpful influence, in small
shops, stutfy hot mills and factories.
These people, unfortunately stu
ated through circumstances. due to
their vocation. etc., should try to be
cheerful and whenever the heat
thought intrudes itself consider that
hot as it is it might be much worse.
Sudden dosing of the stomach with
iced drinks is dangerous, especially if
there Is no food in it, 1t is more i'm
portant that this important organ be
kept supplied with solids than with
so-called cooling liquids A box of
crackers kept close at hand for an oc-
casionsl nibble is better than pitch
or of ice water. This keeps the stom-
ach in good order by giving il normal
work to do and prevents a congestion
OF the blood in the brain. The diges-
tive organs are stimulated rather
than chilled. Hearty eating is
not SO dangerous in hot weather as
injudicious eating. 1t is the kind
rather than the quantity of food that
tells in such season. Underline
fruit is always bad and especially so
with the system under its usual tone.
Ice cream is of questionable wisdom
Only when it is above suspicion as to
purity and freshness is it safe. Drug
store intemperance is quite as bad in
some respects in hot weather as saloon
intemperanoe, and the drinking of soda
water may easily be carried to dan
gerous excess

Meat Dealers are Notified,

Meat dealers in this section have
received the following letter sent out
by the newly formed Meat Dealers
Association of Pennsylvania:
"It is to our great advantage. as
we'll as to the advantage of the pub
lie, that we should use modern pre-
servatives in order that we may be
able to keep our meats in the sweet
est. cleanest and freshest condition.
Every person knows that the preser-
vatives which we have been using are
perfectly harmless and are even of the
greatest benefit to all. not only to the
meat dealers, but to the general public
as we'll Modern preservatives do not
restore spoiled meat, but simply pre-
vent fresh meat from spelling. AS u.s.
ed and in the quantity used they are
rs harmless as salt, and they have been
in use for the past quarter OF CEN
tury, aud are today used in every state
and city in the country. aud. in fact,
in every part OF the civilized world.
In many states proper laws have been
passed approving and regulating the
use of them.
Let us league together every meat
dealer in the state of Pennsylvania
and seek tine passage of proper laws to
permit and regulate the use of such
harmless preservatives as are absolute
ly Indispensable in our business, and
which are used by our fellowtrades-
men in other states of this country,
and, in fact. in every part of the globe.
There are over }, 900 meat dealers in
Pennsylvania If we should need funds
at any time you can readily see that
dollar or two from each would supply
all that would be needed.
This is no catch penny scheme, but
an honest, earnest effort for the bene-
fl of the meat men of Pennsylvania
and the public in general
Do not send any money, as none is
needed yet. Your moral support is
sufficient at present All members
will be advised from time to time OF

SEVENTY FEET
ABOVE WATER

The Standard Electric Light Com
pany completed the work OF removing
tho connecting wires from the bridge
piers To the poles. recently erected on
both sides of the river, on Saturday
afternoon.
Lineman Edward Rockefeller was
assigned to the task and he complet-
cd the work easily and in remark
ably short time. The messenger wire
was put up on Friday afternoon and
all was in readiness Saturday morning
tor Mr.. RockefelIerto begin work.
He climbed the pole ON the Danville
side at :l5 a. IN. and worked his way
slowly across the river. The wire was
placed in a boat rowed by Daniel Ross
and taken up as needed. The cure mt
wire was fastened to the messenger
wire by means of braces, there being
about four inches of space between
them. The trip to South Danville was
made without a hitch. As two wires
are necessary to complete the circuit,
Lineman Rockefeller was compelled to
make return trip. At the noon
hour he had reached the third
pier. At this point he was lowered
with a block and tackle and Iowed to
shore. He was hoisted to his position
again at one O'Clock and by four had
completed the job.
1t was a task fraught with q great
element of danger and the easy man
ner in which Mr. Rockafeller handled
the work brought forth much favor
able comment from the many speota-
tors who lined the bank watching the
proceedings during the day.
The work as it now stands is most
substantial and the change was made
in so short a time that the South Dan
Vile residents were without light but

A Very Worthy Charity.

There is no movement in which the
charitably disposed people of the coun-
| try can engage which does better
worG, is more appreciated by the re-
cipients or produces more lasting re-
suits for good than the work of giving
| the poor children from the crowded
cities two weeks unalloyed pleasure
in the country. For years this move
| ment has been in progress. and as the
benefits arising from it are becoming
apparent it is growing in popularity,
and every summer thousands of these
poor little waits are given their first
glimpse of country and pure home life.
These fresh air children as they are
called consist of the very poor of all
natiOnalities gathered from the over
crowded tenements Of the large cities
and are sent to the country aud taken
into the homes of some kind, mother
ly woman who for two weeks does ev-
erything in her power to make them
happy, and at the same time instill
in their minds lessons of truth, right
and honesty. For two weeks they are
allowed to ramble unmolested over
hills, forests and fields gathering fruit,
flowers and berries. and in this brief
period they are transformed from pal
lid, pale and sad faced children to
brown, happy and smiling ones. The
lessons they have learned are not for
gotten, and upon their return to their
squalid quarters they do all they can to
make it resemble in some degree at
least, the happy peaceful and comfort
able homes they have left
Montour county has been slow in
taking up this work during the past
two or three years, not because there is
a lack of kind hearted and hospitable
people in it, but simply because their
attention has not been called to the
matter.
