ABOLISH THE GAME.

With the life Of one bright high
school boy almost snutfed out. as
result Of Saturdays football game 1t
would seem TO be about time to put
. stop 20 the sport. We have laws
against prize fighting, but in the past
century there have been fewer fatal
titles, or serious injuries from prize
fighters In the whole world than
occur annually In the United States
from football. This Is an indisput-
ed fact, yet football Is coudtenanced
and encouraged by public officials,
educators and others. In contest
Il develops all the brute nature Of
the Individual In an effort to win the
game, and In many instances no in
jury or punishment Is too severe If
II brings the score. In the case Of
young Hawthorn Gray, he was liter.
ally stamped into the earth by an
opponent and carried off the field In
sensible with but little apparent
thought Of the serious results that
might follow, and the game proceed.

The Way This Beautiful Wood Was
brought Into Fnshion.

The Way This Beautiful Wood Was
Brought Into Fashion.
Every one knows how effective and
handsome mahogany Is when used for
good furniture, but few OF us know
how its value was first discovered.
In the latter part Of the seventeenth
century London physician had a
brother engaged In trade with the
West Indies who on one occasion
brought home several logs of mahoga-
ny as ballast. The doctor was building
a house. and his brother suggested that
the logs would serve for ceiling beams.
Acting on the proposal. the doctor gave
orders TO the workmen to make use of
the mahogany, but their tools were not
equal to the task Of cutting the hard
wood, and the logs were put out Of the
way In corner In the garden.
Some timo afterward the head car
penter tried to make box from the
wood, but was unsuccessful with ordi-
nary tools. He told the doctor, who
was interested In the battling timber
and ordered heavier tools to be made
to work 1t with, says Home Notes.
When this was done and box at last
made and polished. it was 50 handsome
that a bureau was made from another
Of the despised logs, and this was de
clared BY experts to be so superior to
other furniture making woods that the
craze for mahogany set in, and furni-
ture made from 1t became highly popu.

layed, threw the ball around, until he
had Kip wild with nervousness. They
were kidding each other continually,
and finally Grit remarked;
Here. you big fat guy, hit this"
He turned his hand backward and
pitched the bali with the old straight
arm toss. As the sphere fioated up to
the plate Setback. anxious to knock

fell ON his hands and knees, and the ball
went over the plate squarely above
