TROY LEARNS THE A M
Mexico Takes the Troyans Rooters
and all at a z to l Clip-Troy
Fair Advertised.

The Athletics showed Troy a few
featuresin thegameof base ball Sunday
that we're heretofore unknown to then
and sent the whole kit and Doodle
home with bee intheir bonnetts.
The score was seven to one, and that
one, a scratch run made by a wild
throws before a ball had been struck
The features Of the game were
Olark's pitching and Csuthorn's home
run.
1t is as yet undetermined whether
the Troy aggregation came here t.
play ball, or to advertise the Troy
Fair, for every male member of the
squad wore a "biled shirt, a five cent
cigar, a sassy little flag, and a gaudy
badgel on which was printed the date
OF the aforesaid fair with the cordial
Invitation to meet the wearer there
The general make up Of the visitors
was materially helped by a sprinkling
Of young women, ditto flags and badge
who impressed US most favorablY even
50.
As a judge Of such warjigs and
authority on the national game, we
would suggest that Troy first get a
ball team, then practice m their
fellows jays OF the Brush League.
Because you trimmed up the Pretoria
Ryes or some such similar organiza.
ton OF South Louis ISotts, don't un.
imagine you can play ball.

CURE FOR HAY FEVER
Woodbridge & Purdy Say Hyomei
viii Give Relief-Sold Under
Guarantee.

Woodbridge Il Purdy wish to an
nounce that when Hyomei is used as q
preventive or a cure, there will be no
hay fever. They advise daily treat
ment with Hyomei for two or three
weeks before the usual time for the
annual appearance Of hay fever. II
this is done the attack will be pre-
vented. However, IL the preventive
treatment is not started soon enough
and the disease makes it appearance,
use Hyomei six or seven times daily,
and relief will be given at once.
There is no stomach dosing when
Hyomei is used. Breathed through
the neat pocket inhaler that comes
with every outfit, its medicated air
reaches the minutest air cells, killing
all germs and soothing and healing The
irritated mucous membrane.
The complete Hyomei outfit cost
but 81, extra bottles so cents. 1t is
the only treatment for hay fever solC
by Woodbridge s. Purdy uuder ;
guarantee to refund the money II i
does not give satisfaction.

The tendency OF the white man to
gorge up on roasting carr at this sea
son OF the year may have descended
from the annual custom Of the In.
dams Of Indian Territory to observe
the green corn dance. Creek, Cherokee
and Delaware fullbloods are now en-
gagged in this dance on the stomp
grounds near Tulsa, and they are be-
ing assisted 10 their festivities by
many Of the leading men Of the five
civilized tribes. Preparations for
this dance are made by taking
medicine which has a tendency to
leave a perfect acuum inside the
Indian and place his stomach In a
receptive condition for green corn.
The next day he then eats bis vege-
table In large quantities and has about
as much activity about him as a corn
crib for several hours thereafter. Az
ter the corn dance four days will be
devoted 10 the discussion Of the plan
for migrating 10 Old Mexico.

ST. vRAIN TO PITCH
FOR ATHLETICS
Clark Will go to Wichita and Helr
the Kansas Team to Finish the
Season in Fine Shape.

Orel Clark, the pitcher, who has
aided the Athletics in winning the
majority of games this season, will
leave for Wichita, Kansas, this week
to finish the season with the team of
that city. Clark is gerry popular here
and has many friends who are sorry to
see him leave. His pitching has been
a feature of the local base ball season
and it is hard to find bis equal.
Luckily James st. Vrain, the well
known League tosser, has moved to
this city and accepted a position with
the Mexico Electric Light Company.
He will fill Clark's position with the
locals and fill it well.
There is no necessity to dwell upon
ST. Vrain's qualities as a bail player,
his reputation being too well known.
We are glad to welcome the new
pitcher and feel sure that this season
will be one long remembered by Mex
leo enthusiasts, as the best for many
years.

A Tall Corn Yarn.

According to the Chocotah Times,
corn has a fighting chance in Indian
Territory. The paper says: Zone Of
our readers whose veracity is above
question tells the following; 1.-THE
terrible news comes from the western
part Of the Cherokee nation that a boy
climbed a corn stalk to e how the
corn was getting along, and now the
stalk is growing up faster than the
boy can climb down. The boy is clear
out OF slight. Three men have under
taken to cut the stalk down with axes
and ave the boy from starvation, but
1t grows so fast that they can't hack
twice 10 the same placed. The boy is
living On nothing but raw corn, and
already has thrown down over four
bushels of cobs."

YOUTHFUL CURIOSITY.
Youngster Takes Teacher at Her
Word and Puts knowledge Into
Practice.

When u fond and loving parent
starts into relate a few OF the bright
remarks made by his youngest, 1t Is
time, usually, to call to mind a for
gotten engagement or some other
matter that demands instant atten-
tion.
Recently we were c0rnered by a
proud father and before the desired
excuse could be given him the follow.
ing was told:
"John, my youngest" stated he in q
tone adopted by tellers Of such tales
sis ar unusually bright lad especially
for his nine years. Several evenings
ago | was sitting on the lawn reading
when | heard him talking. q times 4,
said he. and then all was quiet. Again
q times A. and nothing more. Fear.
ing he had forgotten his multiplied
tion tables l went around the cornei
to refresh his mind on what 7 times
made. What do you think / found:
He was holding bis pet rabbit and fir
ing all manner OF multiplication prob.
lens at the little animal. Puzzled at
this mode Of play l asked him to ex.
plain, and the following startling an
%nouncement was calmly made: j

Education and Character.

Does education make character!
Not entirely, but 1t can help. A stu
dent Of the Engineering department
OF the University OF Missouri In sum
ming up the effects Of his course In an
article for the University paper de
clares that character growth is one OF
the first important results OF the
training.
Probably the first thing the Engi
neerIng student of the University has
impressed upon him." he says, sis the
absolute necessity Of being straight
forward and honest as essential to bis
success in the engineering profession,
and this is truer of this line OF profes.
slonal effort than Of any other. The
doctors failures die and are forgotten
but those OF the engineer live to re.
proach him."
