Torture Of a Preacher.

The story OF the torture OF Rev Q.
d. Moore. pastor of the Baptist church,
of Harpersville. n. Y, will interest you.
He says: II suffered agonies, because
OF a persistent cough, resulting from
the grip. / had to sleep sitting up In
bed. tried many remedies. without
relief. until | took DIR. Kings New

and Colds. which entirely cured my

take part in them are occasionally
injured. | have no sympathy what
ever with the overwrought sentiment
atty which would keep a young man
in cotton wool. and / have a hearty
contempt for him If he counts a brok-
Ell arm or collar bone as of serious
consequence, when balanced against
the chance of showing that he posses
ses hardihoOd, physical address and
courage. But when these injuries are
inflicted by others, either wantOnly or
of set design, We are confronted by the
question. not OF damage TO one mans
body, but of damage to the other
mans character. Brutality in playing
game should awaken the heartiest
and most plainly shown contempt for
the guilty player of it; especially if
this brutality is coupled with a low
cunning in committing it without get
ting caught by the umpire. / hope to
see both graduate and undergraduate
opinion come to scorn such a man as
one guilty of base and dishonorable
action, who has no place in the regard
of gallant and upright men.
Not Serious Business.
1T is a bad thing for any college
man to grow 10 regard sport as the ser
ious business of life. 1t is a bad
thing to permit sensationalism and
hysteria to shape the Development
of our sport. And finally it is a much
worse thing TO permit college sport
to become in any shape or way tainted
by professionalism, or by so much as
the slightest suspicion Of money max
ing; and this is especially true if the
professionalism is furtive; if the boy
or man violates the spirit of the rule
while striving TO keep within the let
ter Professional sport is all right in
its way. / am glad to say that among
my friends | number professional box
ers and wrestlers, oarsmen and base
BAH men. whose regard | value, and
whom in turn | regard as thoroughly
good citizens. But the college under
graduate who. in furtive fashion, be
comes semi-professional is an unmiti-
gated curse. and that not alone to uni
vprsity life and to the cause of anna
teur sport: for the college graduate
ought in after years 10 take the lead
in putting the business morality of
this country on proper plane. and he
can not do II II in his own college ca
reer his code of conduct has been
warped and twisted. Moreover, the
spirit which puts so excessive a value
upon his work as TO produce this semi
professional is itself unhealthy.
wish TO see Harvard win reasonable
proportion of the contests in which 1t
enters. and | should be heartily asham-
ed of every Harvard athlete who did
not spend every ounce there was in
him in the effort TO win. provided only
he does II in honorable and manly
fashion. But | think our effort should
be 10 minimize rather than to increase
that kind of love of athletics which
manifests itself. not in joining in the
athletic sport. but in crowding by tens
of thousands to see other people in
dulge in them II Is a far better thing
for our college to have the average
student interested in some form OF
athletics than to have them all gather
in mass to see other people do their
athletics for them

Dear sirs: Would you like to hear OF
20 year paint?
Mr.. James A. O'Neips house, Hendar-
son, N. c., was painted 20 years ago with
Dsyoe leadgand- zinc, and never painted
aghtn till last year II then looked better
than common paint in half that time. .5
The reason Is: Devoe is all paint and
true paint; while the common, paints are
part true and part falae. Don't pay 10
monkey with paint.
And Deyoe costs less than any of'em /;
not by the gallon, Of course by tie
house and year. That's how TO reckon
1t. Go by the name.
Yourp truly,

COMING ny THREEs.

The New York Mail. referring to a
woman in Los Angeles who has pre-
scented her husband with two sets OF
tripiets in succession. thinks that her
husband may have hard times ahead
1t argues that "if the triplets are boys.
he must shudder occasionally when he
thinks of what their appetites will be
at the age of fourteen years. and the
havoc that six juvenile feet, all Of the
same age, can make in shoe leather.
RI they are girls, the case Is worse
yet. He, can only tremble when he
imagines the three at the bargain coun-
ter age.
And whether they are girls or boys.
or some of each, think Of the time
he has cut out for him walking the
floor at night with three babies in
his arms. He will not have to wait
for them to get to the bargain coun-
ter or the shoe age to realize the In
convenience of SO many in bunch.
One baby with healthy lungs and
habitual attacks of insomnia can keep
q man busy but three of them IL more
than a-plenty.
The Mail is of the opinion that num-
her in such cases is obtained at the
expense of quality. 1t argues that
mo celebrated person was ever a trip
let" Well, strictly speaking, it takes
three to make tripiets and we don't
see how one can be "a triplet," though
that may be convenient way to- ex-
press 1t, and doubtless The Mail is cor
rect. Three of a kind is not bad in
poker games. but when 1t comes to
children most parents object to such
near approach to a full hand.
One popularity about this Los An
geles case is that it appears to be a
family habit. She is of pair of twins
and two of her aunts have borne trip
lets. So far as appears the husband's
side of the house is clear of any such
multiplication of population. 1t runs
in the woman's family and we judge
that they can't help II, but 1t is up
TO the scientists to explain such thus
ness; also. how far down the genera
ton 1t is likely to go. No doubt the
husband will be glad to know if it is
to be worked on a confirmed habit, so
that he may always know what to ex-
pect and provide for.
