HOLYOKE MADE ERRORs.

Norwich, June 15.-In game re- plete with many good plays, Holyoke went down to defeat in the Sachem park grounds yesterday, Norwich being victorious, 6 to 3. Although outbatted two to one, it was Holyoke's errors which figured in the score-mak- ing and Larkin was the particular of fender. The usually speedy shortstop evidently had an of day. and was not able to strike his gait throughout the game. He played trancerlike on sev- eral occasions. Norwich found Me Cabe at opportune times, but did not hit the ball consecutively. Wade pitched consistent game and batted well. The score:

This schooimaster asserts that the
 vest. or waistcoat. is no protection to the most vulnerable part of the body, the back. while the tightly huttoned vest prevents the fullest increase of
 chest growth. He advises parents to
 dispense with the waistcoat and to clothe their boys in sweaters and
 flannels; in his opinion blue flannel
 shirt and flannel collar with red tie would be smart and pleasing. While acting as master at Loretto
 school, at which the boys dressed as
 suggested and were enabled to take active exercise at any time without running the risk of taking chill. he observed that the average boy became l 'Iarger limbed. broader chested and on the whole more physically fit than the average boy at any other public school"

SCALES THAT KILL

Louisville olrier-JoLfnai.
 Great scales, for the weighing of the invalids, stand in the pharmacies of all health resorts. These scales do untold harm. Sometimes, indeed, they cause death.
 Most health resorts are for consump- lives. and most of the visitors to health resorts are phthisical. In the dry. pure air and the great sunshine of Colorado and California, of Switzerland and of the French and Italian Riviera, the haggard figures to be seen-the thin necked hollow-cheeked. stopped per- sons, with very large, bony hands and feet, seated in limp pastures In the sun --these are all consumptives
 And these consumptives. every few days, repair to the pharmacists to have their prescriptions filled. and the sight of the scales in the pharmacy "a an irresistible temptation to them.
 "Am I gaining here?' they ask themselves. 'Is 1t doing me good hereT
 And they step on the scales and are weighed.
 In some cases the scales register an increase. The consumptive has gained a pound or two. Here. in this case, where 1t was not much needed good has been done. The patient has been cheered and encouraged. He goes out in good spirits. and these good spirits are bound to increase his appetite and to benefit him generally. He. though does not need to be benefited. He IS already improving.
 In another case. in many cases, the consumptive has come too late to the health resort. and day by day. as ne hears death, his weight falls.
 And 1t is impossible for him to resist the scales in the pharmacy. At every visit he stands upon them. and with timid smile he asks the clerk to weigh him. There is little hope: there IS always a little hope, in his timid smile. He ate well yesterday; he slept well during the night; he has had no cough and no fever. Perhaps a gain of a pound, perhaps a gain of a half pound. will show that at last the tide has turned with him. and that at last he has begun to withdraw from. in- stead of to approach. death.
 The scales show that he has iost.
 The poor fellow tries to smile as he thanks the clerk. Then he departs His mouth droops. He walks very feebly. His eyes are full or despair The scales rave done him an irrepar- ahlc arm.
 These tragic incidents are to De seen daily in the pharmacies Of health resorts. The pharmacists themselves admit that their scales are bad things

SOCIETY SIDE.

It Is said in Washington that Vice President Fairbanks, as Presidential candidate, will entertain more lavishly than ever. The prospect is that he will occupy the famous Corcoran house, for which he is treating with Senator De- pew. If he should be President, much in a social way might be expected, as Mrs. Fairbanks is very fond of society. She is President of the Daughters of the American Revolution, and through out the United States occupies a posi- ton of prominence. independent of her distinguished husband.

THE IDEAL WOMAN.

The Mothers Congress convened in Washington on Tuesday and among the papers read on that day was one on The Real Woman by Mrs. Lucia Gale Barker of Boston in which she Is quot ed as saying:
 This ideal real woman is she whose exterior is in harmony with the beau tiful things of earth; her countenance is open and serene; her eyes clear. her voice firm and sweet, her step and and appointments, however simple, dec- orative and befitting her station and work; she radiates health and vigor and is good to look upon; she is an ornament"
 This ideal woman. Mrs. Barber as- serted. is full of courage and good judgment and meets diversity with bravery and cheerfulness and does not think life a burden when reverses come.
 This is a start in the right direc- tion for the woman who thinks or writes or does club papers or looks to civic improvement or talks physical culture is too apt to think she has an excuse to be unsightly and thereby does her cause harm. A woman's first duty is to look after herself in some respects that she may impress those she desires to reform that she fs worth listening to. If a woman cannot regu- late herself-the one person on earth who believes in her ability-why. how can she expect others, who may have doubts on the subject to trust her?

 Volumes for invalids--that Is our latest novelty" said the book clerk. He pointed to row of shelves whereon there stood, instead of books. pasteboard boxes labeled with books titles.

 "A number of hospitals have bought sets of these invalids' libraries for their patients.

 Isn't 1t sad that so many people keep the flowers they have plucked for you until the day of your funeral? Their songs of praise are not heard until your funeral procession is passing their door. The mantel of charity does not become public property until put in use by the preacher who officiates at the last sad rites If any one has a flower, even the tiniest little one, let me have 1t now while I am on earth and so sadly need It's beauty and fragrance. What good will 1t do me on my coffin above a pulseless heart that so often grew tired because of lack of an encouraging word? The grass that Is kept green above my last resting place will avail me little on the other shore. Here Is where need the flowers and the smiles and the words of praise and encourage ment-not over there. If the friends who are going to come round to my house after I am gone to see If they can be of any assistance" will come now will show them how they can do me a whole lot of good There are lots of the former. there are few of the latter.

Klose Crew Saved.

San Pedro, Cal, March 3O,-The cap
tain and crew of the schooner c. A.
Klose, which was abandoned at sea in
a waterlogged condition, were picked
up by the schooner Poiaris, which ar
rived here yesterday. All hands are re-
ported well.
The G. A. Klose was abandoned on
March Goth, ten miles of the Oregon
shore. She was bound from Vancouver,
Wash, for this port. Shortly after
leaving the Columbia river she sprung
a leak, filled rapidly and soon became
waterlogged and unmanageable. The
crew took to the rigging, and remained
there for day and night. The Po'
laris. from Portland, was sighted, and,
in response to signals, ran alongside
the o. A. Klose, launched boat in the
heavy sea, and after many efforts sue
eeeded in taking of the dereliet' 3 crew.
Captain Wagner and the eight men who
were with him on the Klose are said to
be none the worse for their experience,
Their sutferings, they say were very
mild under the circumstances.
