had gained count for more than a mere living.
 He might have argued that he was do- ing pretty we'll to earn s10,000 a year, and that he deserved to enjoy it. But he preferred to use his earnings to make more money that some day he might be able to dispense with a salaried position altogether. And this man had wife, too. who was farsighted enough to be willing to live on a small sum when it meant an easier road for both by and by.
 Ready cash is the greatest moving force in the business world. It speaks with the loudest voice, and its possession represents business acumen Of course there are exceptions. in cases of inherit ance, etc. but the exception only proves the rule.

What is thought to be new species of bear has also been discovered there. It is an in- land white bear, not an albino of the common black or brown bear, but ap- parently true species.
 Another landmark of old London dis appeared the other day when the au- thorities ordered the destruction of the milk fair. which has been a feature of St. James park for 300 years. The wo- men who conducted the fair, with their ancestors before them. had been in pos- session of the place for centuries, and insisted that long occupancy had given them a sort of perpetual franchise. | Japanese soldiers along the Sha river have shown their ingenuity in the utili- zation of an over supply of rats. The rodents became a pest, and the soldiers set to work to destroy them. Though destroyed, the rats were not wasted. The soldiers cured the rat skins and used them for ear-faps, with the tails tied be- heath the wearers' chins.

BASEBALL GOSSIP

'rn tell you Fred Moore is a wonder on the field" said Joe Hennessy yester- day. "None of the big league boys have anything over him when 1t comes to fielding, and if he picks up little in bat ting this year he will be the star infielder of this league.
 T played against him last year and know whathe can do. It was in sliding to second while he was playing that bag that l hurt my ankle. The people are going to like him. also for he is clever fellow and a hard worker. l hope they can coach him up to batting this year, and if they can nothing in the league will have anything over him.
 ''As for myself We'll l am feeling fine. l kept in condition all winter, but caught a little cold not long ago and it made me feel little badly, but I will be over that all right. If I can keep this ankle of mine in condition this year will play a much better game of ball. Last season and the season before that I hurt it early in the spring and was out of the game for long time If my arkle is all right will bat better, field better and run bases better. All last sea son. even when the last games were being played. it hurt me all the time"
 Did you ever see such wing on a man?" one of the fans asked at the baseball park yesterday afternoon. Pm already stuck on Dessau. He certainly looks good to me and l am hoping that the Barons succeed in keeping him. That delivery of his is something out of sight. I like the way he goes after the ball when he is batting. He soaks 1t solid and those balls have whiskers all over them when they go through the field. I'll bet he makes the Barons a star"
 About one hundred of the faithful went to the park yesterday afternoon to- look on and admire Some were the old bald headed fans. and the others were the opposite extreme in age and just at the stage wehen their chief delight is chas- ing balls.

Kills Inside Germs.

Liquozone is not made by compound ing drugs, nor is there alcohol in 1t. Its virtues are derived solely from gas- largely oxygen gas--by process requiring immense apparatus and IA days time This process has, for more than 20 years been the constant subject of scientific and chemical research
 The result is liquid that does what oxygen does. It is nerve food and blood food-the most helpful thing in the world to you. Its effects are exhilarating' vitalizing. purifying. Yet it is germicide so certain that we publish on every bot tie an offer of 5000 for disease germ that 1t cannot kill. The reason that germs are vegetables; and Liquozone-like an excess of oxygen-is deadly to vegetal matter
 There lies the great value of Liquozone.

We paid s1OO,OOO for the American rights to Liquozone; the highest price ever paid for similar rights in any scientihc djsco- cry We did this after testing the product for two years through physicians and hospitals. in this country and others. We cured all kinds of germ diseases with it-thousands of the most dtTicult ca5 $ obtainable We proved that in germ troubles 1t always accomplishes what medicine cannot do. Now we ask you to try it-try it at our expense. Test it as we did see what it does. Then you will use it always as we do, and as millions of others do. You will use 1t not only to get we'll but to keep well. And it will save nearly all your sickness.

A Successful PIaywriqht.

From The Pilgrim for March.
 When one realizes the difficulties of successful playwriting, and the fact that the number of women who have writ ten for the stage can almost be counted upon the fingers of one hand, the suc- cess achieved by Mrs. Lottie Blair Par ker is quite remarkable. Coming of a family largely imbued with puritanical prejudices against the playhouse and all that pertains to it, Mrs. Parker's plays appeal strongly to persons of that type, as they deal with simple, natural sub jects and people, depicting the whole some and humorous aspects of life rath- CT than its sophisticated side Way Down East' and Under Southern Skies are the best known of Mrs Par ker's plays.

How a Millionaire Saved.

From the New York Globe.
 One of the greatest millionaires of our country lived, before he made his mill lions, on sS a week. and at time when his income was s1O.O00 a year. He saved all the rest of his salary for judicious investments. He had been a poor boy, accustomed to a frugal mode of life. He began his career in the city sweeping out store for $50 a week Later he was advanced to $750. The mode of living which he was obliged to adopt as boy he considered quite good enough for later years, especially when he saw that by de- nying himself for awhile longer he might make the experiences and hard knocks he

 PRACTICE AT PARK

i soaked them square on the nose and sent them flying into the outfield every time for straight line drives He has the right swing at the ball and plenty of muscle to back it up.
 It looks a cinch that he will be one of the Barons' star twirlers this season. His arm Is very long, and he has a graceful delivery. At the end of the swing he jerks his arm slightly which imparts the curve to the ball. He has speed also. and from the little work he has done he seems to have control. Everyone is impressed most favorably with this slabman, and all are pulling to keep him here this year even if Louisville does want him.
 Wagner, who was pitcher for the Ba- rons last year, will arrive this morning. A telegram was received from him yes- terday, stating that he had left home and would report in Birmingham this morn ing. Matthews is also expected
 The changes on the diamond this year will improve 1t a great deal. The right l field four line has heen moved down about ten feet, and It will make a: home run over that fence much harder than before. It will also prevent men making home runs from balls batted against that fence, as was done several times last year. On the infeId the ground is gradually being packed by the men at work and 1 also by the players while they are prac- ticing. This year the pitchers box will be the highest place on the diamond, and the land slopes off in everyAdirection. This was done so that water would run off l i.If1 fIao daId In order to make this improvement a layer of earth was put on the old dia- mond and that Is being packed as fast as possible.

Manager Vaughan would not allow any hard work But the boys are graduallygetting into con dition and by the end pf the week will be able to go in for som hard work.
 Fred Moore and Hanessy were out yesterday. Moore, the new recruit from the Cotton States leaee, made a good impression. In fact Manager Vaughan and the fans who web gathered were very much impressed rith the way he handled himself and cvered ground on the inheld.
 Moore is in excellenteondition, and is as fast as lightning. H is going to work at once to improve his batting, and if he can hit about a .250 orl275 gait this year there will be nothingin the league to beat him. Hennessy, who played with him last year, says h is a wonder on fielding.
