A very interesting ~ and exciting
game of ball was played at Keystone
Park last Friday, by the Y. M. |. Jrs.,
of st. Marys and the "Steenth Team''
of this place. The score resulted in a
victory for st. Marys, Is to 6. BY
glance at the score book, the Empori-
um team must have put up snappy
article of ball juggling, only making II
errors, while st. Marys had the honor
of making but half that number
While we do not profess to know the
many different terms for plays, but one
player is credited with three "navy
yard" home runs, while in the grand
total of runs his record shows but one
score. We confess we dislike to pub
lish the tabulated account of the game
owing to the humiliation it might
cause some of the boys. Try it again.
The base ball team went to Port AL.
legany on Saturday and defeated that,
team by score of 10 to- 4. Orvis Hem
phil had his eye on the ball-out of
four times up, had home run, two
bagger, and single, making three of
the eight hits made by the Emporium
team. Orvis is always there with the
goods and is one of the best players on
our team.

Charcoal is a remedy that the more

Charcoal sweetens the breath after

It absorbs the injurious gases which

disinfects the mouth and throat from

Futility of Personal Criticism

Iutillty u TcTooudl SfAIiSSbHs *,
One of the surest ways Of failing to
help another is by criticising. Not
one person in ten thousand has the
grace, or indeed, the power, to receive
and believe words of personal criti-
cism. This may be a wrong state o.
affairs, or it may not; but it is tremen-
dously true, and TIE sooner We rccog-
nize it the better for cur usefulness.
Many a heartbreaking GOODNESS Or per-
manent rupture between friends has
been caused by the frank" well
meant" word of criticism spoken by
one to the other. Shun such criticism
as you would poison-it is fatal il
most cases. Indirectness is the only
safe course here. Warm praise ct
neutrality-suspicious. can sec to
praise in the other. may SO turn that
life toward its best possibilities that
the glazing fault will die out for want
Of nourishment. Sometimes an e1-
precision OF strong disapproval Of the
fault as it appears in some one else,
without a hint that it is the enc spoken
to, may flank the trouble and even
tually rout it. But 4 head-on attack
is pretty sure t. end in a head-ol COL
~lision-and that means q wreck.

Sewing Aprons.

There is really something new in
aprons. This time it is one which is
not only 10 be worn when one is doing
fancy work. crocheting or fine needle
work. but which forms a receptacle
for the work in question when it is to
be put away.
The apron is rounded at the bottom.
does not reach below the knees. and is
made double. Linen lawn is the ma
terial usually employed. but any sutl'
GENTLY thin white goods can. of course,
be substituted. Dotted muslin is
pretty. Take one width of the goods.
leave it straight across the top. but
round off the lower corners so that the
apron itself shall have a decidedly
round appearance when gathered into
the band. Cut front and back alike.
Then in the front piece cut two oval
openings. n on each side, large
enough for the hand to slip into easily.
Bind each opening with white OF col
ored ribbon. Next make a rufhe TO
extend all around the apron, and edge
the rufde with ribbon Of the same
color as that used for binding the peck
ct openings. Some cheaper material
than the ribbon may be used in both
cases if preferred. Set the rufie in
between the front and back portions
Of the apron and stitch in place.
The apron is now ready to be gath.
cred and set into a band. which may
be of ribbon or of the goods. The
completed apron forms a large pocket,
or fat bag. into which the work may
be thrust through the openings at the
top. For knitting or crochet the bag
serves to hold the balls of wool; for
sewing it keeps together all the small
sewing utensils, except the scissors,
and even these may be slipped in if
they are small and have rounded ends.

The Serpent Of Drink.

Whenever the serpent of strong drink
coils itself around a man he is sure to
go, if he does not stop short, face about
and let it alone.
About seventeen years ago.1 had the
pleasure Of hearing George W. Balm, OF
Kentucky, lecture, and it changed the
course of my life. I saw if l ever had
a home I must cut out the drink. So l
did to save a little money. I thank
my lucky star for q warning in time.
So 1 warn you, my brother, stop before
it is too late. l read an account OF a
young nan some years ago who went
from England to the jungles Of Africa
with an exploring party, and while
there caught a young boa contractor,
and fer amusement he used to spend
his spare time teaching his snake to do
many wonderful tricks. One was to
coil itself about his feet and around his
body, and as it grew to full size it
reached above his head and would
curve over and kiss his face, and at a
signal would drop to the ground. SO,
when he returned, he used to give eX.
hibitions and became very popular and
made money. and with that formed the
habit Of drinking. One night he was
to give an exhibition in Manchester.
The scene was set in al African jun
gle. A traveller anne in view from one
side of the stage and stopped and lis
tened and stood %spellbound. Then a
rustic was heard as Of the stealthy
moving of some heavy object. Pres
emily there appeared the head OF a
great snake with eyes like balls of fire,
and it crept softly to the mar and
wound itself about him. up and over,
and brought its head in line with his
lace. The man gave the signal, but
the serpent had him entirely in its
power, and with N tightening of its
body crushed the life out Of it's victim.
This illustrates the drink habit as
well as anything'I ever heard of. So l
would say to you that have never
started. don't begin, and to those that
have begun. stop before it is too late

Always q Depressant.

The conclusion that all authorities
agree on is that alcohol is always a
lepressant and anaesthetic. So far,
these anaesthetic effects are found to
appear very soon after spirits are used.
and to follow a certain uniformity Of
progress depending Of the conditions
and dose. These facts are being rap
idly increased and confirmed by both
clinical and laboratory observations.
Chloroform, sulphuric ether, chlorai
and other well-known anaesthetics all
exhibit, in an extreme degree. the
physiological action Of alcohol. .
From a pathological point Of view al
.ohol is shown to be n Of the most In
sidious and destructive of tissue pol
sons. and it's use is followed by certain
cell and tissue degenerations that are
uniform in their progress and growth.
The theory of a tonic and stimulant
value or a force producer or conserver
cannot be sustained by any facts that
are unauestioned.-T. D. Crothers, MD.
