THE RECORD
Skagway BOwlerS Doing
 Well-0ther Performances

Ina bowlers at the Elks' club have begun making records that will com pare favorably with those at alleys which have been long in existence and where the players have had great deal of practice. The record at the present time is held by F. C. Flaharty, who made a score of227 last night. He is followed for the first place by Burt Thomas with a score of lS9. Mir. Flah- arty made seven strikes" in succession.
 There seems to be some doubt among the bowlers at Skagwsy as to what is good record. The highest individual scores made last year on a regulation alley for a record were by w. COrdes, Brooklyn; B. Stell, Chicago; and E Roedel, New York. Each of these made the possible, 300.
 The highest average in a tournament for a record on a regulation alley was made by J. vOorheis, of Brooklyn, who averaged 233 in a series of ? games.
 The record for a five men team is held by the Sylvanus alley, Brooklyn, which made ll52. The same record was made by the Empires, of Chicago, but it was made with loaded ball, which is not recognized in the east.
 The Grand Centrals, of Brooklyn, hold the three-men team record, 73i.

my sedentary work LED TO indigestion,
liver trouble, lame back and rheuma-
tism.
Upon consulting physicians some
doped me with drugs, while others pre-
scribed dieting and sometimes | got
temporary relief, other times not. For
II years l struggled along with this
handicap to my work, seldom laid up
but often a burden to myself with
lameness and rheumatic pains.
Two years ago | met an old friend,
a physician who noticed at once my
out-of-health condition and who pre-
scribed for me an exclusive diet of
Grape-Nuts, milk and fruit.
L followed his instructions and in
two months felt like a new man with
no more headaches, rheumatism or
liver trouble and from that time to
this Grape-Nuts has been my main
food for morning and evening meals.

been for years without trace of the
old troubles.

time, seeing that his mother was
in good hands, had gone away
with the basket. The doctor drew
on his gloves and looked from Mrs.
Murphy TO Mrs. Brown as he hes
itated with his hand on the door
knob. The quick Irish sense of
the good lady who lived i'll the
basement took in the situation at
once, and she said, as she put her
hand under her apron: Don't
bother about having d bill broke,
Mrs. Brown; it'll delay the doctor.
How much is it, kind sir?'
"One dollar"
It's worth it, sir; here YOU are,
and thanks to YOU for your kind
ness" uttered the fine old woman,
as she handed cut a bill and bowed
the medical man from the room
with an air that would have
sraced lady of high degree. Be
fore turning again to the pale
faced little woman in the chair,
Mrs. Murphy wiped her eyes with
the corner of her apron. Why she
did this no one knows but she, and
you and land, of course, God.
She was hard worked woman,
who had spent more time with her
eyes to the floor than she had with
them lifted to the sky where the
clouds float, and where the stars
twinkle. Only Mrs. Murphy, a
scrub-woman, with a back bent all
most like bow; with hands
warped and distorted out of shape
by toll, hard toll. But she was an
angel-God bless her. And God
keeps her goodness close to the
right side of His good book. He
never overlooks such as she,
though the puny parasites that
deem themselves far above her
pass her by without a single
thought, and would scorn to touch
the hand so worn and distorted.
Though mortals may forget her,
God never does.

She pressed her hand to her
brow before spreading out skirt
with fine ruffiing and dainty trim

the pain that throbbed back of
them. She applied the hot iron,
and stopped for second as
sharp pain darted through her
side, almost taking away her
breath. Lifting the iron quickly
she gave a gasp; the pause, slight
as 1t was, was fatal to the pretty
skirt. A brown scorch tells the
story. 1t was too bad, and the
tired little woman sat down and
cried, and she could not help It:
the sharp pains which she had suf-
