REMINDED HIM OF HOME.
Rough Weather on the Ocean Made
Kansan Think He Was Back
on the Farm.

A Kansan crossing the Atlantic in rough
weather went out on deck when bic
gale was blowing. Nobody was in sight
except the captain, relates the Kansas
City Journal.
Go below there" the captain shouted
The passenger looked around to sec
whom he was talking to-.
you mean me?" he yelled back when
he saw there was no one else in sight.
''Of course do; go below" and the
captajne came alongside.
'Well, guess not" protested the Kan.

patch to what I've seen out our way"
A big wave broke over the deck, sweep
ing the Kansan aft. They picked him up
with broken leg, a twisted shoulder, .
epralned wrist, and his face looked as il
ii had been dragged backward through
., briar patch. When he came to he saw
the captain.
''By gravy, cap" he said, feebly, "that
sight wetter."

In serving the player stands with ono
foot on the back line and serves the ball
into any part of the opposite court. A
service striking the net or anything
within the court, even if the ball falls
into the opponents court, is fault;
if it falls outside the opponents court
the server retires. If server serves
two consecutive faults he loses his serv-
ice.
The ball must be batted at least ten
feet in a service, as no "dribbling" Is al
lowed. To "dribble' is to strike ball
quickly and consecutively into the air.
A service that might strike the net, but
is struck over by player on the same
side, stands good, and the server con-
tinues until ''out," which happens if
the ball is knocked out of bounds by his

The Right Answer.

"And now" asked the teacher.
what country is opposite to US on
the globe?"
Il don't know, ST." answered little
Mary.
"Well, if a hole we're borec straight
through the earth, and you were to
go in at this end, where would you
come out?''
'Out of the hole, sir" answered little
Mary.
Then the teacher quit asking Ques-
tionS,-ChicagO Inter Ocean.

OF OTHER DAYS.

Down on the floor here, me and you,
Doing some stunts like I used to do
II With other babies in days gone by;
Dimpled Of cheek were they, laughing OF
eye! H. ~
And. ali! but the lips Of them they were
red!
And the yellow curls on each tousled head
Were wonderful shimmering, dancing
EMt35 curls! ~
oh, the old time boys and the old time
600 girls! ,[f4 j. r. -.
And the funny things that we used to do!
Let US get down here! me and you.
Let usIget down here, me and you;
Over your shoulders peek eyes Of blue,
Out Of the misty years troop ba.sk
The children of old, and a-pick-t-pack
We romp upstairs, and we go pe|l nell
Downstairs at the sound of the supper bell!
Hang on, don't holler, won't hurt you;
Oh, this is the way that we USED to do!
You are filling the place in the heart of me
The place Of the children that used to be.

A Tin Church.

York, Pa, probably is the only Sec
ton Of the country that has a tin
church. 1t is constructed entirely Of
block tin. The structure is one story
in height, of unpretentious architec-
ture, and Is 40 by so feet in
dimensions. The building cost $500.
st. Pauls United Evangelical con-
gregation worships IN the tin church.
When it was decided to build, the cost
of material was discussed. Stone,
brick and lumber were inquired on. It
was found that these materials would
necessitate an outlay beyond the
means of the congregation. Then some
member of the church versed in the
cost of metals suggested block tin.
The church is painted in imitation OF
brick.

Cure to STAY Cured.

Wapello, Iowa, Sept. 18th, Especially
One Of the most remarkable cures ever
recorded in Louisa County is that of Mrs.
Minnie Hart of this place. Mrs. Hart was
in bee for eight months, and when she
was able to sit up she was all drawn up
on one side, and could not walk across
he room. Dodd's Kidney Pills cured her.
Speaking of her cure Mrs. Hart says:
Yes, Dodd's Kidney Pills cured me
after was in bed for eight months, and l
know the cure was complete, for that was
three years ago, and have not been
down since. In four weeks from the time
I started taking them was able to make
my garden. Nobody can know how
thankful am to be cured or how much I
feel I owe to Dodd's Kidney Pills"
This case again points out how much
the general health depends on the Kid
neys. Cure the Kidneys with Dodd's
Kidney Pills and nine-tenths of the suf-
ferine the human family is heir to will
disappear.

muslin hard, or gently and slowly II
you tap it lightly.
You will perhaps be surprised to hear
that you can make one Of the smoke
rings blow out lighted candle that is
placed across the room from the box.
OF course, the candle must be placed
exactly opposite to the hole, when a
quick, hard tap on the muslin will send
a ring of smoke that will extinguish It.
And your friends will be surprised
when you blow out the candle by tap
ping the muslin on the box, even after
the box has been emptied of smoke.
The tap on the muslin sends current
Of air strong enough to extinguish the
flame.
The accompanying illustration shows
how the box should be arranged. Any
boy can make it.

THE GAME OF VOLLEY BALL
Delightful New Sport Which Com
bines the Best Features Of
Hand-Ball and Tennis.

A combination of handball and tennis
makes an interesting game, called volley
ball, which any number of persons may
play at a time, giving an advantage over
the game where the number is linn
tied.
The court in volley ball should be so
feet long by 25 feet wide, and it
should be divided by a net two feet
wide and q feet long, so that it ex-
tends a foot outside the lines at each
side. 1t may be suspended on upright
posts, and the top of the net should be

FUN WITH SMOKE RINGS

Have you ever watched smoker
blow rings of smoke from his mouth?
Here is way to make smoke rings
without being smoker, and twill be
found one of the prettiest experiment is
that you ever made. &F e.,
You must have pasteboard box
about foot square at the bottom, and
in the middle Of the bottom cut
round hole as large as a silver dollar.
Pin a handkerchief tightly over the
open top of the box and then burn
touchpaper in the hole lni::i tne box is
full of smoke.

SAkHALlN TRAGIC ISLAND.
Most Violent of Russian Prisoners
Sent There from Sibe-
rian Jails.

Sakhalin, the island which Japan is
now taking, or, rather, retaking, from
Russia, is the place to which Russia
sends her violent convicts. The con.
vict of Siberia has some liberty to con-
sole him for his detention, but the
convict in Sakhalin none. When a
party of convicts (having been pro-
nounced violent by the governor Of
the Siberian station) is landed at SAX.
hahn the procession to the Jail is as
follows: First among the prisoners
come men with letters on their legs
and linked together IN pairs, the clank-
ing Of their chains making a lugubri-
GUS noise. Next come half dozen
men, each without letters but secured
by the hands to a long iron rod Then
follow female prisoners, and after
them the most affecting part Of the
whole-the wives and children who
have elected to accompany into exile
their husbands and fathers Behind
them rumble "telegas," or rough wag-
ons, wherein are transported baggage
and those children who are too young
or infirm to walk.
When on the march the prisoners
are allowed three pounds of bread and
one-half pound of meat each day, and
they are not forbidden to receive aims.
But when they arrive at their destina-
ton their lot is pitiful one. Their
cells are damp and fungus covered,
their food is less than the allowance
during the journey and their work in
the salt mines is most exhausting.
Many of the prisoners are very ignor-
ant. Few of them can read excepting
the Caucasians, but they are all put to
the same laborious work, and in the
event of their being physically unable
to perform their allotted tasks their
punishments are very cruel. The Eng
lish "cat-o'-nine tails" is nothing to
the terrors of the 'bodiga." In this
instrument of torture the prisoner is
SO fixed that he can neither move nor
cry out, and wire thongs bound at the
end with pointed tin strike his back at
frequent intervals.
Other tortures to which prisoners
are subjected are too dreadful to write
about, and during all these tortures
the prisoner is prevented by gags from
obtaining even the poor relief of q
scream. Surely tho horrors of the
salt mines of Iletskaya are nothing
compared to the denominations Of SAX
hal!o.

Pink Pills." said Mrs. Mary Reagan.
Of No. sc Kilburn street, Fall River.
Mass, recently, II was in and out of
bed all the time, but now stay up all
day and do all my own work.
II was badly run down from over
work. One day noises began in my head
and almost made me crazy. My head
felt a. if . tight baud had been put
around it, and the pressure and the
sounds made me 50 uneasy that I often
had to walk the floor all night.
my stomach was in bad shape, and !
had smothering sensations. At such
times my body seemed bloodless, my
hands were like chalk and my face
turned yellow. The doctor said I had
dyspepsia in the worst form. Then my
nerves gave way and I was completely
Frustrated. I frequently suffered from
smothering sensations.
"The first box of DR.. Williams Pink
Pills that I used Quoted my nerves
so that I could get a good nights
sleep, which was new experience for
me. Before began to use them I was
a nervous wreck and trembled at the
slightest sound. I was SO weak that I
had to sit down and rest every few steps
when I went up stairs. Now I can run
up a whole fight at once. The smother
ing sensations have gone and the noises
in my head have stopped entirely. Ny
appearance has greatly improved, for
friends who were alarmed Oh my &C

glass tubes fitted in them, the other
ends of the tubes entering the box BY
means of two small holes.
When you heat the bottles with tho
lamp the fumes will rise through the
tubes and enter the box, where they
will mix and form a dense white
smoke. Having filled the box in this
way, says the New York Mail, the bot
ties need not be heated again until the
smoke becomes thin. =
When you tap on the muslin large,
beautiful rings of smoke will come out
of the hole, and you can bring them
out forcibly and rapidly if you tap the
