In Love With Their Occupations.

Some people love the busy hum Of
factory life as much as bee enjoys
gathering honey. The scholar among
his favorite books is never happier
than some mechanical workers
among the machinery. Men go from
farm to factory, and from factory to
farm, and some think most of the oil
and iron odors of the shop, but city
people are seeking the farms more
and more every year.-Earl M. Pratt

Relief In Earache.

A hot mustard foot bath will help
to allay earache by drawing blood

on the ear. 1t is one of the first
things that should be done in cases

st. Louis lays claim TO the unique
distinction of having two national
bowling champions in the same family,
Martin Kern and his daughter, Miss
Bertha Kern, forming this remarkable
combination. The father wears the
national tenpin bowling championship
medal which he won four years ago.
His daughter won the championship at
Milwaukee in 1905 and again this year
at Louisville. She averaged more than
ITO at Milwaukee and 16O at Louisville,
notwithstanding the strain OF tourna-
ment play. Last season in her eigh-
teenth year she established the high
single game record of 25S in match
with Mrs. Hunt at Louisville.
Miss Kern is a working girl and
bowls but once a week, the only leisure
time she has to devote to the pastime-
She will be a competitor in the national
tournament which will be held in St
Louis commencing on March It, Owing
to the skill she has shown in recent
practice games some record breaking
performances are expected from her.
She is counted upon to easily retain
the championship. Miss Kern is nat
ural bowler, as she accomplishes won
derful performances without the neces-
sity of training of any kind.

LOS ANGELES, March 6.-Over a
heavy track and before a fair sized
crowd. a so to 1 shot romped home an
easy winner in the first race at Ascot
Park today. Teddy Mack, the one-eyed
son of Cromwell, had suddenly come to
life at a time when he was virtually
overlooked by the spectators. There
was hardly any wagering on Teddy
MackS chances
The thirteen starters in the fifth race

clOuded the track and made 1T almost
impossible 70 distinguish cofors or num-
bers, so closely were the horses punched
most of the way. Lady King, at 80 TO J.,
should have been first and would have
been had Moriarity not been overcon-
fident. AS it was. Lacene, after trail
ing the field to the stretch, moved up
fast and nipped Lady King at the wire
The feature event of the day was
marked by the defeat of Temaceo, the

crack colt safe throughout the journey
and won by a narrow margin. Arimo
was right on top of the pair at the
