A Sweet Breath

Is a never failing sign of a
healthy stomach. When the breath
is bad the stomach is out of or
der. There is no remedy in the
world equal to Kodol Dyspepsia
Cure for curing indigestion, dys-
pepsia and all stomach disorders.
Mrs. Mary S. Crick of White
Plains, KY, writes: Il have been
dyspeptic for years; tried all
kinds of remedies but continued
to grow worse. By the use of Ko-
dol I began to improve at once,
and after taking a few bottles am
fully restored in weight, health
and strength and can eat what
ever I like" Kodol digests what
you eat and makes the stomach
sweet. Sold by Stotler & Corbett,

How Indians PLAY Ball.

Kansas City Journal: Indian ball Ii
a peculiar, a fascinating and a bloody
game. 1t is played on a ground almost
like a gridiron. There are two goals
$50 yards apart, and the object is to
pass the ball between these goals. The
ball is like base ball. the Indians
making them themselves with yarn
covered with deerskin. A stick about
two feet long with spoon shape at the
end backed by thong laces is used, and
in this spoon the Indian must catch
the ball. He is not allowed to touch
it with his hands. He catches and
throws with his club. The game Is
slkirmish all the time. and there are
twenty players on a side. An Indian
catches the ball in his stick If he Is
Skillful. He starts on a run for his
goal. He is Immediately tackled by all
his opponents. and the scene closely
resembles a down" He runs as far
as he can. and then tries to throw the
ball. The opposing players halk him
at every move. They strike his stick II
they can. and # not they strike what
ever is in reach. often the head of the
player. The games are sometimes very
bloody, especially when played between
rival towns. and many q player has
been killed in the game. When women
play they are allowed to use their
hands in addition to their ticks. They
can throw the ball any way they like
They are as fleet as the men. and
with the advantage Of their hands, Of
ten win. \ game consists of 81 points,
and there is no time limit. They play
until one side has put the ball through
the goal 81 times

OLD TIMES REVIVED.
Picturesque Scenes at Hiring Fair i
ENGLAND.


London Express: There was pic
turesque survival of old times at the
Michaelmas hiring fair at High Wycombe
recently.
In Buckinghamshire old customs die
hard, and the fair is now as popular as
ever among agricultural laborers and farm
servants seeking employment.
Early in the morning the old market
place bore an animated appearance. From
various parts Of Buckingnamshre. Berk-
shire, OXfordshire and Middlesex farm
women candidates. attired In their Sunday
clothes, drove up amid scene OF hustle
that may have been strange to many. A
few of the more modern type rode bicycles.
There were youths of both sexes trying
to improve their position or their wages.
and even aged toilers of sixty strove-ano
with considerable success, too-to prove
that they were more valuable as farm
hands than the more youthful of their
competitors. and worth more to other
masters than their present masters Inn
agined.
large number continued the ancient
practice of indicating their calling by
wearing a distinctive badge or ornament
IN their caps. For instance. plowmen and
others who understand horses wore little
knots of plated whipcord. cowmen dis
played tufts of hair. and tenders of sheep
wore punches of wool and carried In their
| pockets their records OF the percentage
OF lambs from ewes under their care last
season.
Masters and men bargained during most
OF the morning and as each man was en-
gagged he adorned himself with streamers
of tricolored ribbon, and proceeded to the
pleas ire fair to spend the rest OF the day
| amid the swings and roundabouts

In the first act the stage manager rushed
up--the heroine had a nervous attack and
required medical aid.
B. had nothing else to do but follow
him. In the lady's dressing room he
found the manager with anguish depicted
on every feature and the lady wrlnging
her hands and shrieking.
Nov, doctor, quick! What's to be
done?"
B. grew as red as lobster, and as
he could not say anything he just ejacu-
lated:

He took the lady's hand in wild at

more than ever and wrlthed like snake.
"Have you poured any water on her
head?" he asked.

BY this time the manager and stage

quite composed, and could appear with
out any danger. But she must have a
few days rest. They made wry faces, but
granted the holiday.
