LUMBER JACKS
STEAL ONE

At Aberdeen yesterday Spokane
was defeated to 4. It was rag
ged game for the Indians. Seven
nuffs were made, all bad ones.
Higginbotham, who twirled for
Aberdeen. struck out II men and
allowed 5 hits. One was home
1tp and one a 3-bagger. Dutch
Altman sent the ball over the fence
at period when it didn't matter
much.
Terrence McKune collided with
Hickey in the 4th inning and was
compelled to retire from the game.
"Bull Swain, who Is as big as a
cottage. then went to short, and
Erickson, who has ears like the
sacred animal of India, went to
SWANS truck garden. Swain did
mighty well at short. Terrence,
previous to Swain taking the posi-
ton, had encompassed errors and
was in fair way of going to the
bad altogether.
But in spite of all this the lum-
Der jacks were not swift enough to
make the score very lopsided. When
the Indians get used to the tideflats
there'il be another story. The first

Of brokers. That many shares
simply represents the traders, ac-
tivities of the day-the false front
of the street, as it were.
The range of prices on any given
day for the last week or month
shows that there is no real buying;
There must be buying now because
everybody has sold. When no one
will buy then the traders get busy.
Hence the 100000 share markets.
1t is merely the mercurial tenn

The causes are sought for far

There is no foreign interest in
the market. Europe is not salts

does not exactly dstrust them,
but she does not want any more.
That business has fallen off any

taken as indicating that a dry

Iodine For Snake Bites.

The Rlural World prints an article
by DR.. J. n. Phelps prescribing iodine
for snake bites. Dr. Phelps cure il
simple and he declares it to be abso-
lutely effective. 1t is nothing more
than tincture of iodine injected into
the veins near the wound.
This is an absolute cure" says DR..
Phelps Il have tried iodine on man
and on animals, and it never has fail
led me. Even without 'hypo' the use
OF iodine is simple. If the skin ID
abraded short distance above the bite
scratched, say. with a knife of any
sharp instrument. so that the blood
comes, and iodine is poured on freely
so it will get into the circulation. no
trouble will ever be experienced from
tho bite.
My brother has several fine blood
ed horses. A rattlesnake once bit one
of the finest of them on the nose and
my brother promptly started to fill
the animal up with whisky, thinking
that might cure it: I was visiting him
and asked him to let me try my
remedy. He scoffed at the idea, but
consented. stuck the small blade Of
knife in the flesh above the wound,
injecting the iodine, using a goosequill
as syringe, and the horse never felt
the slightest i'll effects, although the
bite was a severe one. This has been
the case in many bites 1 have treated.
Another case was that of child
that had been bitten by water moe
casin, the bite which is considered al
most fatal. But the iodine injected
into the veins promptly put stop to
the spread Of the poison, and the
baby's life was saved after the par
ents had given up hope
1.-THE same rule applies to the bites
of tarantulas, scorpions and their kind,
Iodine ms "a sovereign remedy for
them, and every man who spends a
day in the country where reptiles
abound should cary bottle of it with
him. It may make MIN life saver

AS to Pride of Ancestry.

Not long since an acquaintance Of
mine said to me with an air of pride:
"I can trace back my ancestry to my
great greats randfather's great-great-
grandfather He was a cavalier, and
fought under Charles l." "And what
does that amount tor" / answered him.
'"rhat was the eighth generation before
you, and In that generation you had
1928 forefathers and 1913 foremothers,
and you can account for but one Of
them, Just 1-256th of your ancestry in
that generation Among the 127 men of
whom you have never heard there may
have been several who were hanged
for murder, burglary or sheep stealing,
for all that you know or can ever hope
to know. Nor can you tell how many
dlsreputable characters there may have
been among the 12s women, And YOU
must remember, too, that you had "a
foremothers in the seventh generation,
and 80 In the fifth, all Of them nearer
to you than that cavalier; you must
account for them as WELL"
Yet, Of course, one should be glad
that his near lineal and collateral kin
have been and are honest men and
virtuous women, but a line must be
drawn somewhere, and that not many
generations back, beyond which there
is no such thing as good birth or bad
birth, because 1t is all both good ant
bad. When anyone begins to boast thai
he comes Of "a long line Of proud an
cestry, he can be contradicted a.
once, because there is no such thin6
as "a long line of ancestry" ones an
cesters cannot be represented by &
"rbe," but by an inverted pyramid
Every one Of us comes not of one, bu
of many hundreds and thousands O.
lonT lines of ancestry, some of then
proud, perhaps, and others with NJ
cause fer pride, but rather the reverse
1t will not do to try to follow them al
too far back. Someone of the many will
surely lead to dungeon Of the New
gate prison, or 1t may be the Tyburn
gailows tree. we cannot pin our faitl
to the one cavalier, and ignore all tn,
Others, as my friend was trying to do
because it is natures plan that all TIKI
good and all the bad of the race should
be mixed up in each one Of us.-Franl

welcome FOR DR.. PoTEAT
He breaches AT CAL VARY
Former Practitioners Greeted
Warmly by Old
Pastor.

There can be no doubt In the mind of
the Rev. E. M. Poteat. former pastor
Of the Calvary Baptist church, that his
old congregation was glad to hear his
voice In the pulpit of that church again
after an absence of ten years. The
church was filled at both morning and
evening services, and Mr. Poteat spoke
to his audience with his old fervor and
earnestness, and the very listening was
intense. The text of the morning SER
mon was taken from the fifteenth chap
ter of the Acts-the ninth verse And
put no difference between us and them,
clarifying their hearts by faith" lii
connection with this verse was used
the ninth verse of the second chapter
of the Acts, And when James, Cephas,
and John, who seemed to be pillars
perceived the grace that was given I'M
to lis, they gave us the right hand or
fellowship"
The sermon treated principally OF
the difference between the ecclesiastical
and the evangelical principle Of, faith,
the former being founded on history
and traditionsof the church, the latter on
the conference alluded to in the chapter
from which the text was taken, as to
how the gospel should be spread. This
conference was spoken Of as one Incl
dent in the history of the world
when men came together and conversed
with a toloration for each others views,
with the determination in the task
they had to perform, where such grace
was given as came to these men in
Antioch
The Evangelical principle in faith In
Jesus Christ is enough for moral re-
newal. The man who is growing into
a church to become saint must have a
principle that goes down into his heart
and makes it clean. God cleans the
heart by faith.
Many of the congregation greet.
ed Mr. Poteat after the services
were over, and for each he had cor
dial word and an almost tender remem-
brance.
The sermon Of the evening was
preached from the second chapter or
the acts, the thirty-sixth verse,
Therefore let all the house of Israel
know assuredly that God hath made
that same Jesus whom We have cruci-
fed, both Lord and Christ"
This is the verse of all others that
I would rescue out of the bible" said
Mr.. Poteat, and asked his hearers
what they would choose, or would, they
chose some other. Perhaps" he said,
some one would say, John 3rd, six
tenth, God so loved the world that
he gave his only begotten son, that
whatsoever believeth in Him shall
not perish but have everlast-
lasting life" The belief of the
Christians Of all times was the base of
the sermon; their belief through faith
and in closing Mr. Poteat said when
| Christ died He entered into glory ana
became the Saviour of the world. l cali
Him my King, and the rest Of my life
I'm going TO give to Him and you who
have not already come into His love by
faith, and accepted Him as your King
do it-that you may know the peace
that comes to you when you know Him
/ as your Saviour
