Simple Cure

If you are one of those 1nfortunates

After washing with d. D. Dl soap
apply a few drops of D. D. D. Pre-

lief!
For three years have suffered in
describable torture from an aggra-

Taylor, of Germantown, Philadelphia.
THE itching and burning at times was
almost unbearable, and everything
used-salves, ointments and washes
only added to my discomfort.
Then l Immediately began the sys-

now, after the use of six bottles am
happy to announce myself CURED.

No more dosing the stomach with

A simple wash, and your agonies and
sufferings disappear and with it soor
the humiliation of showing a distress

ENEMIES OF SOCIETY.

A movement is said to be on foot to suppress "snitches. "snitch. ac- cording to the Kansas City Journal. is a lawyer who advertlses that he will secretely and quickly obtain divorces. IL is otherwise defined as a lawyer who prowls around for people who have met with accidents. or have grievances. and urges them to bring suits for damages. the "snitch." of course, to have charge of the cases and prosecute them "on shares" The word is not in all the dictionaries. In some it is classed as slang and defined as "an informer. $ In popular speech it is used only in a disreputable sense.
 The "snitch" divorce lawyer is un- doubtedly a pestiferous creature and an enemy of society. The Journal is quite right when it says: Ut is pecul- iarly appropriate that the bar itself should set about the task of putting a stop to reprehensible practices. There can hardly be any question that attor- neys who cater to the clandestine di- vorce trade reflect discredit upon the entire profession, and the bar is only protecting itself when it takes steps to place such attorneys beyond the pro- fessional pale. The bench can. of course. wield an immense influence for good in this respect and can practical ly nullify the sharp practice to which these pettifogg.ng lawyers resort"
 Information is not at hand as to where or by whom this movement has been undertaken. but it is certainly worthy of encouragement. The divorce evil is already so prevalent as to cause grave public concern, and the member of the legal fraternity who fosters it for his own profit is not worthy of his profession. There is trouble enough in the world without tempting men and women to separate who might. if left to themselves, patch up their differ ences and live happily. The domestic life is at the basis of our institutions. and those who make a trade of de- stroying il for mercenary purposes are fit candidates for ostracism from de- cent society.

disposition Of the dog. post mortem has revealed portions of a rattlesnake in his stomach. a discovery which must go great way toward destroy ing the hydrophobia theory in the case.
 All the we'll known signs of hydro phobia are frequently manifested in the actions of dogs suffering intensely from indigestion to which it is said they are more susceptible than any other animal Even man with all his carelessness of diet. is less sufferer from this tOrturing ailment. The diet of the dog in this case was certainly of a character to promote intestinal disorder for while rattlesnake poison is not necessarily deadly poison in the stomach it has an exciting effect on the nerves. This phenomenon is fre- Quently observed in the case of hogs which attack with impunity and eat rattlesnakes.
 So after all, the hydrophobia dispute is left open with the advantage slight ly on the side of the antis.

WHY PITCHERS CAN'T HIT.
Joss Says Lack of Practice is Main
 Reason.

One of the Oft-repeated questions tl:at arises in all baseball discussions is: Why can't pitchers hit?' says -'Addie" Joss in a Cleveland paper. This problem is one that the students Of the game have been wrestling with for a good many years. and while there have been many reasons given, still no one has ever been able to make 1t ex- actly clear.
 Of course the rule doesn't hold good in all cases as there are number of twirlers who can pound the leather about as hard as the men who are in the game every day. but these cases are few and far between. After seeing such men as Killian, Orth, Tannehill and Mullin, of the American League, who are rattling good stickers at the bat, one wonders why it is that the other men that make pitching an art don't hit harder than they do; never theless the fact remains the same that. as rule, the pitcher doesn't break up many games with the stick.
 To one who has never been connect ed with the game. from the standpoint or the player, 1t would seem that he of all the rest of the players should be able to hit. Being twirler himself. it is contended that he should be able

NOVELIST ON DESERT ISLAND.

! The South Sea Island steamer Suva has brought to Sydney from Nuaka- ! lofa. in the Tonga group. news of an authoress who. like the late Robert Louis Stevenson. has made a speciality iof Pacific island stories. says Sydney-
 correspondence of the Daily Mail. ] Early in this year Miss Beatrice Grimshaw was in London. where she published a book that met with some
 success.
 "A few days ago" the report brought
 by the Suva runs. "a native was seen padding his canoe at a furious rate toward the Nuakalofa beach. When he got his breath and calmed himself he declared to other natives on the beach that he had seen and had been challenged by lone white barefooted figure of a female on an uninhabitated island.
 "The Tonga government officials were informed, and as it was evening they decided not to go and see what the apparition was until next day, in
 case it were some evil spirit Next day the officials went out in
 a boat to investigate and with fear
 and trepedation on their faces landed
 on the old pilot station and discovered a fire with tea kettle singing merrily

THE HYDROPHOBIA DISPUTE.

There are great many people and all of them are of scientific bent. who believe that there is no such a thing as hydrophobia and they call for the proof of a single well authen- ticated case. The anti-rabies advo- cates will feel that their position has been greatly strengthened. negatively. Of course. by the denouement of a case which originated near Phoenix re- gently
 At the time there was no doubt among those who believe in the exist ence of hydrophobia. that a dog was suffering of rabies. There was the "frothing at the mouth" the hatred of water" the snapping at every moving object and the especial aversion to- ward those to whom he had been most affectionate-all time-honOred and in- fallible signs of hydrophobia. Also there had been more or less indirect evidence that the dog had been in fight with a skunk. hydrophobia. of course. an animal which the anti-rabies school scornfully refuses to consider at all

to know about what the opposing pitcher was going to pitch. and. being
 aware of this. should be able to hit 1t
 mile. But here is where the fallacy in the reasoning begins. All pitchers don't think alike. By that mean that
 what may be one batter's weakness with q certain twirler might be just what the batter can hit when served | by another twirier.
 The best two reasons that I know | (from actual experience. as the off,
 cial batting average will show at the close of each season) are these: A pitcher when working on an av-
 craze of about two games a week don't get to bat often enough to make him. self familiar with the art of meeting the ball. which is the secret of good hitting.
 A pitcher who is in the game about
 twice a week will, in the course of that time, go to the bat about seven times. while the player who is in the
 game every day will face the barrier about twenty-five times. This fact
 alone means quite little to the man who expects to hit with any degree of cOnsistency.
 Another good theory advanced. and one that seems very reasonable. is the one that while the twirler Is on the
 slab serving uo the benders to the Op- position. he is watching the ball as it goes away from him. but when at the bat the conditions are reversed and -
 has to look at the bah as it is coming toward him.
 Any trap shooter will tell you that the hardest way to break clay pigeon
 is when it is coming directly toward
 you. and the same theory holds good aS regards batting.
 Pitchers. as a rule. next tn winning a
 game. would rather make a base hit
 than anything else. and their lack of
 hitting ability surely Is not caused by
 the fact that they don't practice.
 To show how much they like to hit
 have only to say that I overheard one
 major league pitcher make the remark
 that there were only two pleasures in the game for him. one was hitting in practice and the game and the other payday.

MIR. O'BRIEN's DELICATE TASK.

Following the representation by Am bassadOr O'Brien to the Japanese gov ernment, in which it is set forth in diplomatic language that it is not act ing in good faith toward the United States in the matter Of restricting inn migration to this country, We may look for revival of the war scare. How ever polite Mir. O'Brien may have been. he had a delicate duty to discharge and it is doubtful if it could have been discharged so skillfuny as to avoid offense
 The government of Japan had prom ised to meet the views of this country in respect to lessening the tide of inn migrants. It had frequently announc- cd that it was already engaged in full filling its pledge. Yet Mir. O'Brien was compelled to point out to it that it was not redeeming it's promise; at any rate that there were no noticeable re- suits on this side
 It could only be assumed that the Japanese government had been either derelict or deceitful in its dealings with us in this immigration business.
