Sportsman's show.

New York. March 1.-The 18th
annual sportsman's show was open
ed in the Madison Square garden to-
day and is, perhaps, the most inter-
esting of It's kind ever held in the
United States. Il is being held under
the auspices of the National Sports
mans association and Is strictly a
show for sportsmen with the side
shows eliminated. The general plan
OF the show has been improved since
last year as result OF the combined
suggestions of scores OF the most
noted sportsmen in the country who
know al about sports and the fea-
lures that interest sportsmen. Spe-
cial feaures have been added and
new faces from newly developed
grounds In all sections OF the
United States. Canada and Labra-
dor can be seen, Each camp Is built

DR.. Williams Pink Pills Are a Specific
This Remedy Is aPOwefd, Yet Perfectly Safe Tonic Which
viii Build Up the System, Strengthen the Nerves,

Extreme debility, a constant sense
of fatigue, headaches at the base OF
the skull and across the forehead

kissing sounds In the head, stomach
disorder, palDltatiOn OF the heart
these are symptoms that marks the
after-enects OF grip. And these lin
gering and stubborn aftor-effects are
often worse than the disense itself.
The health Of the body Is badly
shattered and oftentImes there seems
20 be no way to restore II. The suf-
ferer becomes nervous, irritable and
the system Is powerlcss TO resist the
attacks OF such diseases an bronchi-
els. pneumonia and consumption.
The story told by scores OF victims
OF the grip is substantially the same.
one was tortured by terrible pains
at the base OF the skull that made
life uncomfortable and that long defied
che power OF medicine; another was
left tired. faint and in every way
wrecked from anaemia or acantiness
OF blood: another had horrible head
aches. was nervous and couldn't |
sleep; another was left with weak |
lungs, difiicuIty In breathing and
acute neuralgia In every case relief
was sought In vain until the great
blood-builder and nerve tonic, Dr
Williams Pink Pills was used.

A Record Rainfall.
From the Athenaeum.

From the Atnenaeum.
Before the Meteorological Society paper
by r. L. Holmes on 1.-THE Phenomenal
Rainfall in Suva, Fiji" August 8. 1905, was
read by the secretary. Unfortunately. the
exact amount had to be. In part. estimates,
owing to the observer failing to measure the
fall at intervals during the night. Very
little rain fell before sunset. but from 9
pm. there was ceaseless downpour till
sunrise the next day. At 10 pm. the assist
ant found the gauge overlooking with 1880
inches of rain in 1t. Four hours later, at
am. on the 9th. the gauge was again over
flowing. and at am. 1t was Overlooking
once more-that is. three times in twelve
hours Very little rain fell after am
These measurements show more than thirty
seven inches. without taking into account
the overfiowings. which are an unknown
quantity. AS the gauge was twenty-five
feet above the ground Mr.. Holmes Is OF
opinion the rainfall should be increased by
about IL per cent, SO that the total fall
must have been fully forty-one inches in
about thirteen hours. which he thinks sur
passes anything that has been recorded In
any other part of the world In so short a
space Of time.

Pocahontas in London.

from the Clrcle
Pocahontas was born in the year 1898;
her father, Powhatan. was the lord and
ruler of thirty tribes. or clans. OF savages
inhabiting that vast domain which was then
called Virginia, after the virgin Queen
Elizabeth His friendship was dearly sought
for by the white men. and considered essen
tial to the life and success of the colony.
Like most red men, he distrusted the whites
and their designs.
In England she was treated with all the
honor shown to royalty. Her grace and
charm seem to have won all hearts, and she
was at her ease with the best In the land.
She was presented at Queen Anne's court,
attended a ball given by the bishop OF Lon
don. and visited the Globe Theater to see
Shakespeare's Tempest" In fact, she
took on the garb and accessories of civili-
zation with that easy grace which belongs
to the truly great. and was as much at
home In court as In her own western soil
tudes But inwardly she seems to have
pinned for her own free. open life OF the
forest, and when she was about to return
on the good ship George. she sickened and
died at Gravesend, having lived iong enough.
as one commentator has said. to unite two
hemispheres. two races two civilizations.

The Woods in Old Violins.

FROM the C1rcle. a.
The old masters used such care in the
selection of the woods for their instru-
ments that. having found piece of wood
of proper fiber and vibrational powers. they
treasured every fragment, no matter how
small: and. rather than waste even a parti-
Gle of such strip. they frequently con-
structed the backs and bellies of patches so
delicately put together that ''the seams are
only discoverable by microscope. 50 perfect
is the cabinet work" 1t was ever the aim
of the old masters to marry the back Of
hard sycamore, which produces the quick
vibrations. and the belly of soft wood, pro-
ducing the slower sound-waves. in such
manner as to give the mellow but reedy
timbre of the perfect instrument. Ana
Ironically a violin made by an old master
is a miracle of construction: 1t can be taken
to pieces, patched. put together. repaired
indefinitely, and Is almost indestructible
Repairing has been the means Of exposing
many clever forgeries. The inside OF a
violin made by Stradivari. Guarnerius, or
other old master. is as perfectly finished
inside as outside. and the clumsy interior
work Of a forgery betrays an Imitation at
once.
