Ruling of Base Ball Commission.

CINCINNATI, November mo national
agreement club has the right to carry e
nonplaying manager on its reserve list, was
the decision of the national base ball COM
mission in the case of E. NJ. Ashenback of
the Scranton team, in the New York State
League
Ashenback called the matter to the atten-
ton of the commission, contending further
that the Scranton club had failed to give
him notice regarding continuance of his
contract as manager, and that it had no
claim on him. The commission sustained
the claim that as a nonplaying manager he
could not be placed on reserve list, but
declared that the other matter should be
taken up with the national association,
which had jurisdiction.

BISHOP TYREE's ADVICE.

In an address at Yoakum the
other day Bishop Tyree handed out
some slugs of wisdom and common
sense that should be carefully read
by the negroes everywhere. The
Bishop said
THE negro must climb in this
country by faith in himself, de-
clared Bishop Evans Tyree in his
opening remarks, land have no
faith in a man who tries to get
away FROM his race. No race has
ever been killed by another race.
Every race lives as long as 1t con-
tinues in harmony with the re-
quirements of civilization and
racial life. The death OF every
race is BY suicide. The growth OF
the negro race must be normal to
be permanent. II must be in har-
mony with its racial characteristics
in order to be solid and lasting. 1t
must be in harmony with the de-
mands of the age in industry, hon
esty and trustworthiness or IT will
die-die by its own hands.
I'VE cannot afford to raise a lot
of loafers and idlers. | believe i'll
education and want to see every
boy and girl in this land educated,
but they must not be educated
away from industry and thrift. An
educated loafer is worse than an
ignorant one. We have a lot OF
good-for-nothing negro men who
marry women in order TO have
them care for them, and you see
this class slipping in TIE back gate
of some white mans home in order
to get cold grub. Such men dis
grace the race, They belong to us
and it is our duty to reach them.
"There is the good time negro,
who is pulling the race down. The
negro who sits around on the street
all day long, insulting colored
women, and then grows holder aud
insults white women, and then the
whole country is disgraced by a
lynching. We have got to get
down to.solid manhood. II | had
it in my power, would make
every negro go to work, and then |
would get some men with axes and

WOODEN LEGS.

Several railroads in this country make
their own wooden legs said a surgeon.
His auditor shuddered
Rather ghastly that"
"Ghastly in way" the surgeon ad-
mitted, "but sensible, too. The rail-
roads are by far the largest consumers
of wooden legs Why, then, shouldn't
they have their own wooden leg FAC
tories?" :.
There's something in what you say"
"Of course there is" declared the
surgeon. Our American railroads kill,
on the average, 5000 people year,
and injure 10000 With the killed we've
nothing to do, but the injured, at 40
900 per annunl, run up to the enormous
total of 100000 in five years, or 100000
in ten years. Why buy wooden legs
for all that army? Why not manu-
facture them direct and thus save the
profit of the middlemen?

greatest consumer Of barrels, has its

to curtail expenses, have their own

ARTIFICIAL WOOD.

j.
Frequent attempts have been rnade
to use peat as raw material for the
manufacture of artificial wood. The
material must, for this purpose, be
fully reduced to a fbrous condition, SO
as to produce a fbrous and mealy mass.
This mixture is mixed with an emul-
sion of parts by measure OF plaster
of Paris and 10 to IL of water; and is
subjected for considerable time to heavy
hydraulic pressure in molds, then arti..
fcially dried, polished and oiled, painted
or vanished.
A more simple process is to wash the
peat, without destroying its natural n
brous state, and to mix the resulting
moist with a mixture of hydrated lime
and an aluminium compound Gas, for in
stance, aluminium sulphrate) and press
it in molds for a short time in the moist
state, after which the, resulting plates
are allowed to harden in the air. The
resultant product needs only COM
paratively low pressure, and this tor
only a short time; and is then set out
to dry in the air. The resulting artlti-
Gil wood is not microscopic, and in OF
der to use it for the open-air work
needs no painting or further impregna-
ton. In view of the fact that the
pressing operation takes only a few
minutes, considerable quantities can be
manufactured in comparatively small
space and Scientific american.

THE DOCTORS WIFE
Agrees With Him About Food.

A trained nurse says: I'm the prac-
tice of my profession l have found so
many points in favor of Grape-Nuts
food that l unhesitatingly recommend
it to all my patients.
1T is delicate and pleasing to the
palate ian essential in food for the sick
and can be adapted to all ages. being
softened with milk or cream for babies
or the aged when deficiency of teeth
renders masticaton impossible. For
fever patients or those on liquid diet
find Grape-Nuts and albumen water
very nourishing and refreshing. This
recipe is my own idea and is made as
follows: Soak teaspoonful of Grape
Nuts in a glass of water for an hour.
strain and serve with the beaten white
of an egg and a spoonful of fruit juice
or fiavoring This affords great deal
of nourishment that even the weakest
stomach can assimilate without any
distress.
MY husband is physician and he
uses Grape-Nuts himself and orders it
many times for his patients.
Personally regard a dish of Grape
Nuts with fresh or stewed fruit as the
ideal breakfast for anyone-well or
sick" Name given by Postum Co.,
Battle Creek, Mich.
In any case of stomach trouble, ner-
vous prostration or brain flag, a 10
days trial of Grape-Nuts will work
wonders toward nourishing and re-
building, and in this way ending the
trouble. There's reason" and trial
proves.

FASHION NOTES.

A white flannel with black stripe
makes a very fetching tennis shirt.
Make it with a pocket, yoke back,
link cuffs, and wear a linen collar.
The tie should be one of the soft
ones.
Lawns with dainty colored figures
make sweet dresses for small children,
it being no longer deemed necessary
to restrict their costume to all white;
in fact, some of the newest and most
select designs for tiny people show
bits of exquisite color.
Rajah silk makes handsome light
weight bathing suit quite in contrast
with the flannels that, as soon as wet.
become too heavy for comfort, and in
terfere with the exercise of the limbs
required in swimming. And, all wo-
men should swim; if you have not
learned, determine to do so this sum-
mer.
A noticeable feature of some of the
nicer artificial flowers is the beautiful
shading, which is so real that one al
most expects to smell the fragrance
that comes from the real blossoms.
The group of forward turning plaits
at the middle, front and back of the
circular skirt remains favorite way
of producing added width at the bot
tom.

of bountiful harvests, and the business

that is exceptionally heavy for the sea-
son. Some evidences of conservatism re-
garding production beyond assured de-
mands are noted, but in many OF the
leading industries contracts have been
placed for the entire output during the
balance of the year, while steel mills
are booked we'll into 1907. One OF the
best features of the week was the settle
ment of coal mining troubles in Ohio,
concessions being made by both contes-
tants that resulted in resumption OF
work by $4,000 miners.

GKIp FUn rAE WOMAN AT HOME.

GRIP FUn THE WOMAN AT HOME.
Lack of grip is serious enough in
any walk of life; but those women
whose profession in life is domestici-
ty are the workers who stand most
in need of that attribute, and it is of
wider world-importance that these, of
all workers, shall possess this essen
tial quality. When Q homemakeF
shows that she has lost heart-interest
in her work, declares Good House
keeping, lost brain interest Qove-in'
terest, perhaps, the cause of her
depression may almost invariably be
traced to lack of belief in the high
value of the work which engages he-
time and attention. A conviction OF
the world-importance of the work
which she was born to fulfill, is the
strong tower to which must continu-
ally resort those women whose bust
ness in life is being what is called do
nestle. To be domestic, in the high
est and most honorable sense of the
word, is surely to believe that whole
outside world Of experience may be
applied to the world within. Bring
ing to her education, heart, hand, and
brain, the domestic woman will yet
find that no iota of this equipment is
lost OF unused.

OBJECTS IN LIFE.

A woman teacher enters her pro-
fession, says one of them, either to
satisfy a yearning for employment or
to support herself and those depend
ent on her. If she marries, both
those objects are otherwise accomp-
lished. Meantime, possession of her
own means of living makes her more
free in her decisions about marriage.
Work that is perhaps too hard hastens
her loss of alluring qualities of tbs
mating season, and her opportunities
for matrimony become less than
they might be in the social world,
since, as another teacher writes, men
of marrying age do not frequent the
reference libraries or hover around
the student lamp. She, meantime, is
consoled by the knowledge that the
world is the better for her life and
by the gifts that purpose and study
bring, and usually, if she is naturally
a teacher, happiness spends rather
more than the average time with her.
Occasionally she marries late, and
then with a high prospect of being
satisfied, since the man is likely to
have character and appreciation OF
ideal things, and since also she, hav-
ing dwelt upon the grand but lawful
logic of natural law. has not cheap
illusions on which to base her faith,
but sound interest in others and a
calm responsibility to the world
