FREMONT 4-PENN's GROVE A. A. 2
The local inability to hit Call, the
Tremont's star pitcher last Saturday re-
suited in a defeat for the Penn's Grove
A. A. by the score of 4 to 2. The WISH
tors made their hits count, connecting
for two satellites in the fourth and fifth,
and were helped along by costly errors.
An overthrow netting the visitors a run
in the fourth and also one in the fifth
by a base on balls with the bases full.
The local boys could do nothing with
Calls delivery only connecting for three
safties. Carter's two errors allowed the
locals to score both their runs and after
the fourth it was one, two, three, for the
2. A. AIS.
The game was exciting all the way
through, both sides putting up a game
fight and the game was won by the WISH
tors by good clean playing-together with
the locals miscues.

Why He Saved Them,

For weeks upon weeks the heavy
rains descended upon the holiday re-
sort Of Lakeswash, and the proprietor
Of the Punt and Puntpole was looking
very blue. Indeed, those two straw
hated, miserable looking objects out
in the Lakeswash canoe were the only
visitors of the season The hotel pro-
prietor gloomily watched their clumsy
endeavors to navigate their tiny craft
Suddenly, plop, splosh! Help" In
moment the hotel proprietor had
changed from a sluggish do-nothing to
a frenzied rescuer. Putting out rapid
ly in a boat, he succeeded in reaching
the terrified men just at the critical
moment.
ooh, thank you-thank your they
cried as they scrambled into the boat.
Don't thank mel" growled the no.
tel keeper. "Thank the weather! Wis
itors is so scarce this year we can't
afford to let even the fools drown! I

AS the tramp looked at Mrs. GODDARD
he felt a thrill of hope. Here was
surely an easy and benevolently in
clined person. could you gimme
dime to buy a loaf O. bread?" he
whined.
Mrs. Godard's guileless soul looked
out at him through her nearsighted
eyes, and she fingered her purse hope
fully.
II have only quarter here" she
said, "and I'm really too tired to walk
home"
"Sure, I can change it for you," said
the tramp cheerfully as he took out a
dime and a nickel, and not until Mrs.
GODDARD was halfway home on the car
did it occur to her that there was any

Not infectious.

I used to be very much afraid that
my children while playing with others
would be exposed to some contagious
disease, and they were constantly on
the lookout for trouble Of this kind.
One day little Louise, aged four,
came rushing in from the street where
she had been playing with a crowd of
children. In a very excited manner
she burst out, We'll, mother, two of
the Meyers children have something,
but sister says she don't think we'll

ne {nadVertentiy put on more speed.
"What are you doingT' screamed
Edmonia. "Stop! Why, you are rum
ming away with me!' she laughed
tremulously.
"Why notr' he shouted wildly, as
she thought, recklessly. The idea of
stopping was delectable one now to
Percivale, but one which he felt that
he must abandon.
The roadsides Of fireweed and gold
enrod flew by like track Of fame.
Hens tapped from under his wheels
as they passed farmhouses at q rate
Of speed that made the occupants rush
out Of doors to stare after them. Out
ragged cries followed them when a
barking dog was not quick enough to
elude those blurring wheels and with
yelp Of pain rolled over and over
into the ditch. Three horses batting
by the roadside in front of another
house stampeded as they whizzed by
and raced them out Of sight.
Edmonia now tried to expostulate
with her mad cavalier. But Percivale
said nothing to her almost fearful ap-
peals. His whole attention was con-
centrated on keeping the thing within
the limits of the road.
"Beats Lochinvar!' he yelled breath
lessly as they grazed watering tub.
Edmonia moaned. you are crazyw
she cried. Lets 60 home! Oh, take
me home!" she commanded him.
"'Homew Percivale ground the word
passionately between his teeth. "You
will be lucky if you ever see home
again. We shall never stopw But
even as he spoke he felt something re-
spond to his cropping fingers. The ma
chine was obeying his controlling hand.
Joy and relief that rolled over him
like a wave made him shout aloud.
Edmonia received this new demon
stration as the exultation Of q captor
and commanded and implored by turn
But he did not at once diminish his
speed. He knew now that Edmonia
had not realized his impotence. He
put the machine at hill and plunged
down the other side. Edmonia was
clinging to him with wild promises.
He brought the car carefully to
standstill and climbed painfully to the
ground Edmonia was sobbing into
her handkerchief. He hoped he was
accepting the role of victorious knight
modestly, but the iron was hot!
"Ted," he cried, you've got to keep
your promise, you know. I'm not much
Of a knight, and don't know how to
rum
His unsuspected confession was in
terrupted for the second time as she
suddenly, to his astonishment, smiled
up at him through her tears.
II never was driven like that in my
life!" she remarked, with pride. "But
but let's go home In buggyr,
mot until we're married." said Per-
civale firmly.
Edmonia refused to continue in the
car, however, SO they walked on to the
nearest town, where the minister's fee
was the first of a series Of more null
dane charges which punctuated their
homeward journey in the buggy.
But in his new joy, which was only
enhanced by pecuniary interludes with
the wrathful owners Of slaughtered
hens, the fearful mistress of an injured
dog and damages due to the recovery
of errant horses, Percivale made it a
triumphal Journey.

There are still places in Asia Minor
where the genuine Abraham horse is
bred. This is the case, for example,
in the Vilayet (province) of Diarbekir.
Such an animal will sell in that sec
ton for as high as from $2,500 to
$4,000. Ordinarily. however, the av-t
erage horse can be bought through
out the country at about $50.
