tries for the play on Thanksgiving,
as the interest in golf has been re-
rewed of late, though the season is
nearly pau.
The advent of Alexander McLaren
has done the sport in this city a
world of good and his advice and
teaching should bring many of the
players. who have up to this time been
mediocre, 10 much better form. His
class of players has increased till it
seems that almost all the golfers of
the city are anxious to learn what they
can of the game from his many years
of experience. Personally he has
proved to be just what was expected
and he has become very popular
among the members of the Country
club, where most of his lessons have
been given up to this time.

BASEBALL IN
THE ANTIPODES

Baseball is f1ourishing in Australia,
according to a letter received from
Sydney, New South Wales, and all eff
forts are now being directed toward
getting the public school boys interest
ed in the game In Sydney eighteen
teams occupy the diamond every Sat
urday afternoon during the Winter,
and if more ground was available more
players would undoubtedly be identi-
fed with the sport. In Melbourne,
Victoria, the Southern State, many
teams, also play regularly every Sat
urday afternoon. and the public is be-
ing attracted for the reason that the
teams get a chance Of playing in ad-
vance Of the football matches, which
are literally patronized.
In Hobart, Tasmania, baseball has
been successful fnaugurated this year,
and is being played with great success.
Ii is also conspicuous at Newcastle,
New South Wales, and for a season
fiourished in Brisbane, the capital of
Queensland but owing 10 the scarcity
of grounds and the migration Of the
pioneers. it fell through. Eevery year
ain Interstate series Of games IS played
between Victoria and New South
Wales in each capital city alternately.
and players travel six hundred miles
ana pay their own expenses 10 indulge
in the contest Many of the leading
cricketers take part in the games.
1t is expected that at no distant day
baseball viii be played on an organic

ing good work. and the present posi-
ton Of the game there is principally

Fairest-To prevent pimples, which are the pores inflamed, 1t is necessary to keep the pores open and free. You hear great deal about steaming the face This is beneficial in two ways; it cleanses the pores, relaxes them so that the contents more easily are removed. and 1t stimulates the circulation and improves the skin. The moisture, too. prevents the skin from wrinkling. Those. who have red face to which the blood rushes freely should not steam the face; nor should this be done if the pimples are of bright red and irritable looking. The face IS steamed by holding 1t over a two-quart bowl or bashn of boiling water. A paper cone made of stiff brown paper that fits the top of the basin or bowl, and also fits quite snugly about the face can be used. as 1t brings the steam more directly In contact with the face By the time the steam ceases to be given off, the face will have been steamed enough. After you are through take a soft cloth and gently rub out all the blackheads pos slble. Wash the face with water as hot as well can be borne. If the soap Is harsh or alkaline it makes both face and hands rough Soap with little if any perfume should be used.

Value of Fresh Air.

Slepeing with the window open at night is the best safeguard against the feeling of fatigue that many complaint about. Unless a current of fresh air is allowed to circulate in the sleeping apartment the air becomes stale and stagnant, the sleper breathing his own breath, laden with slow but none the less deadly poisons over and over again. The atmosphere is ofter further contaminated by the escape of coal gas, which, even though slight, is none the less injurious when inhaled for eight or nine hours every night. When gas has been burned in the room sev- eral hours before the occupant goes to bed, unless the ventilation has been good, the products of imperfect combustion of coal gas are present in the air and must be inhaled by the sleeper to the great detriment of health It is still very common practice to heat rooms, and especially bedrooms by turning on all the gas jets to the full and closing every aperture that might admit little fresh air An apartment treated in such a manner is no longer fit to be used as bedroom, but it makes an excellent lethal chamber for those who contemplate q lesurely suicide.

for hundreds of yards. That is an ice berg Ore that would not cover Boston Common would be considered more of an icicle than a berg by his huge compan- ions of the north water.
 Of all sea periis, except storms, the ice berg has perhaps claimed the greatest toll of death and destruction. That Is why the cry of Ware berg!" fills cap tains and officers. crew and passengers with fear that Is ever present, ever haunting until the area of icebergs IS gone through in safety.
 What encounter with these glacial mon sters means is attested in the shattered prows of splendid ships. It is attested by d long rol! of lost ships and by long roll of dead. To enumerate the ships which have met their fate against the crashing sides of slow moving bergs would be to write marine history since navigation of the transatlantic passage began. Many d stout vessel that has sailed proudly out of the port and has never bean seen again has gone to the bottom from collision with these offshoots of the monster fields of Greenland and Grantland

Prohibition In the South.

From the Philadelnhi1 ie frer
 The prohibition wave which is sweeping over the south seems to Je gathering strength. The action of the Georgia legislature in enacting abso- lute prohibition from January 1 next has stimulated the prohibition work CTS all oyer the south. hlabar'a s seriously agitating similar laws, though no action will now be takall until the next session of the Iegisla- ture. Tennessee is almost completely in the possession of the prohibitions ists After the 1st of October only three cities in the state, to-wit: Mem. phis,, Nashville and Chattanooga will sell liquor. Its sale has been forbidden in all other cities by local option votes but the Tennesseans are not stoppinn here. Nearly all the incorporated cities that have gone dry" are pass. ing the most rigid laws, forbidding liquors received from the outside to be delivered. the purpose being to pre- vent, in so far as can be done without infringing the interstate laws, the re- ceipt of any packages containing liquor.

Reducinu Flesh.

Mrs. B. C.-Avoid all starchy and sweetened food, all cereals, vegetables containing sugar or starch, such as peas beans corns, potatoes, etc. Have your bread toasted; sprinkle 1t with salt, in stead of using butter. Milk l regret to say, if 1t be pure and good, is fattening Skinned milk may be drunk. Hot water Is an excellent substitute for other liquids. Add little of the juice of Times or lemons to it, if you choose. Limit your sleeping hours to seven, at the outside. No maps. Plenty of exercise.
 If you cannot walk at least five miles a day, and do not wheel, go to one of the institutions where mechanical mas sage is given. Several of my corre- spondents report excellent results from this method of getting the vigorous ex- ercise they require. The system is thor oughly wholesome and not expensive. Tn reducing flesh one fact to recollect is that fat is carbon. Oxygen destroys or burns out carbon. You must consume the car bon by the oxygen you take through your lungs. The more exercise the more oxygen and consequent destruction of fat the one healthful method of curing obesity.

Locks and a Mystery.
From the Boston Herald.

From the Boston Herald.
 Sir Arthur Wears. custodian of the crown jewels which suddenly and myste- rlously escaped his custody in Dublin Cas- tle now regrets that he did not have a Bramah key for the safe for this sort of key he regards as the only one of which an impression in wax cannot be taken. This confidence recalls famous triumph of American ingenuity.
 Joseph Bramah. who died in 1874, in- vented many things. among them q hy- draulc press q blaming machine, ma chine for numbering bank notes, method for rendering timber proof against dry rot, beer engines for taverns and an i'm pregnab ble" lock. One of his locks was especially intended to mock k-pickers, ane 1t was thought that the odds against any person opening 1t without the proper key and without injury to the mechan- ism were 62270l9,5o0 to l. An American locksmith, MT. Hobbs, visited the great exhibition of 1851, and he then declared
 that he could pick all English locks, Bra mah's included. A large and complex pad
 lock had hung in window of Bramah's representatives for several years. An an- nouncement offering q reward of DO gulneas to any one who would pick this lock was attached to the paddock. The paddock was put in room prepared for it. arbitrators were appointed, and MT. Hobbs was required to open II With the aid of small instruments poked into the
 keyhole within thirty days and without harm to the lock Nor was he allowed to see the key. For sixteen days he exepri-
 mented with bits of iron and steel. After ward he exhibited the paddock open, and locked it and unlocked 1t in the presence of the arbitartors, who unanimously de- cded that he had met the conditions. Tho Bramahs protested. but their protest was | in vain
 There was only one key to the safe in ' this Dublin strong room Sir Arthur
 swears 1t has never left his possession.

Might not the most accomplished thief have hesitated, know Ing the difficulty in disp1sing of such fa- nous jewels2 The theft is indeed myste- rious. No wonder that Sir Conan DovIa offered his assistance as an amateur de- tective. Is 1t not highly probable that here Is something more than a good haul by q professional thief? What romance. what scandal may yet be associated with the robbery! Meanwhile the confidence Of Sir Arthur In the Bramah key which he did not have is pathetic in it's con- serVatism

Cure for DandruH.

The following prescription will be of service in the cure of dandruff. Take resorcin, drams; of grain alcohol. : drams: of glycerine, half an ounce and of rose water sufficient quantity to make 4 ounces This is to be applied to the scalp with the fingers every night be- fore the massage of the scalp. Since re- sorcin sometimes undergoes change of color that gives to light. gray or white hair a dingy or dirty yellowish color. this may be obviated by the addition of 10 grains of salicylic acid to the ounce of the solution

 But sh {. was game to the last, the Ari- zona. She kept aioat for two days, and limped into St. Johns with 200 tons of ice imbedded in her forepeak as one me mento of the encounter
 An example of a freight steamer that met a similar peril is the Knight Bache Tor Bound from Liverpool to Boston in 1898, she rammed a berg off Cape Race in a black night IL was close shave from going to the bottom with all on board, but she had q strong bulkhead before her first cargo hold, and she WAS able to feel her way into St. Johns.

 Nowadays the chief victims of these inert but deadly foes to navigation are the Canadian liners and the freighters which ply along the northern route dur ing the summer From May 1 to July 15 their path is to the south of Newfound- land past Cape Race, St. Pierre, and Cape Ray. and through Cabot Strait be- tween Cape Breton and Newfoundland. Fully a score of damaged "tramps" have put into Nova Scotia and Newfoundland ports to repair damages caused by these larger glacial tramps of the seas and by contact with pans" and "growlers."
 Every passenger flyer of the Montreal fleets nave been seriously delayed at times. and the Canadian government has frequently been obliged to send an ice breaker to cut way through the gleam- ing ramparts for them.

 Out from the night that cry carries ter TOT to the heart of the navigator. This Is the season when these ghostly wanderers i;.pear along the track of ocean liners making the transatlantic passage. Scarcely a ship makes port but can give accounts of huge bergs sghted-and some times missed only by the narrowest mar gin.
 Nearly 1000 square miles of Ice masses are thrown off each year from the vast fields of Greenland and Grantland. Break ing up into sections of various sizes, they provide a terrible fleet of about 1000 bergs which float southward and menace the maritime world.

ApnlYina Face Powder.

G. G. G.-Before an application the skin should be massaged with cold cream, wipe off the surplus cream with soft cloth and then rub in more with the tips of the fingers After this rest the palms of the hand on the cheek for a while. This gives a rosiness to the skin, which will last several hours. Now, for the powder. First dash lightly on the face with a puff and then rub it in with a chamois cloth. Rub round and round on forehead and chin, but apply to the cheeks lightly with the palm.

Baby's Bath.

B. R. A child should never be legt in bath to exceed five minutes, and three is better. Some children cannot stand daily bath, and unless it is discontinued they become weak and exhausted In such cases tepid sponging is best, twice week or oftener, till the child improves. Alcohol or sea salt can be added to the water with good effect

Proper Massage.

Jean-In using massage to reduce the size of a part. 1t should be given deep, heavy. also slow and regular with a cir cular movement This method tends to break up the fat cells and promote their absorption. To increase or develop . part give the massage with a circular motion, light, gentle, evenly and not too slow. This gently stimulates the area and causes increased action of the tissues, thus bringing a better blood supply and stimulating its nourishment.

Wants to Be Plump.

Mary 8. C.-The diet should include plenty of starchy foods, oysters, vege- tables, butter, cream, potatoes, fish, etc. Olive oil can be used with splendid re- suits, both inwardly and outward appli- cation. Three tablespoonfuls a day, taken clear, is a wonderful fattener. but those who cannot take the clear oil can add a little lemon juice or vinegar. A massage weekly with olive oil, such as Is given at the Turkish bath houses, is excellent. If the oil rub Is followed by an alcohol rub. the oil will not rub off on the clothing. Exercise moderately. Don't walk when you might as well ride, and don't ever let nerves get the upper hand, for worry does more harm than one can imagine
