THE SLEEPING SICKNESS

How many readers have heard Of this
terrible disease? 1t prevails in that
far-away country-Africa-e

the bite Of the tsetse fly. When it
bites a person, the sleeping symptoms
begin and finally the sufferer sleeps
until death occurs.
Contrast this with the peaceful.
balmy sleep Of health. Is there any
thing more wearing than to lie awake
at night, tossing about, nervous, with
cold feet, hot head and mercy knows
what else? Short Of letting the tsetse
fly bite us we would do almost any
thing for relief. How can we pre-
vent It? Mr. George Hayes, OF
Union City, Pa, writes: 81 had lost
my appetite, was all rundown. could
not sleep nights. | had tried every
thing without relief Vinol was rec

appetite, and now I sleep soundly."
What Vinol did for Mr.. Hayes, II will
do for every rundown, nervous and
overworked person who cannot sleep.

however, that If they would cut up

The story OF the Galilean is not only
perennially beautiful, but OF thrilling

"As long as the heart has passion,
As long as the life has woes"
the sacrifice for sin, whether regard
ed as the dream of an enthusiast, the
Godlikeest act of man, or the man
likest act OF God, will ever play upon
that mysterious instrument, the soul,
the prelude to the highest and holiest
thoughts, as well as sounding the
deepest depths of tragedy and despair.
And The Holy City" as portrayed at
the New Oregon Saturday evening
does all of these.
Jerusalem Is still the hearts CEN
ter OF the universe, and the Holy
Land,the most interesting spot on
earth, perforce the tragedy of the
cross. "a land without ruins Is n
land without memories, a land with

GIRL THROWS BASEBALL

Interest in Unique Contest at Seattle
Is Such That 1t VIII BE Made an
Annual Affair,

Seattle, Oct. How far can a wo-
man throw a baseball? This question
has been much discussed in Seattle
during the last few months and as
far as this locality Is concerned II
was settled a few days ago when a
local newspaper held a contest, CIV
ing a silver cup valued at $50 to the
winner and special second and third
prizes. The matter started during
the summer when at fraternal So
ciety picnic a girl threw a baseball
16S feet Otners promptly came for
ward to dispute the record and so
much interest was shown that the
newspaper arranged for a contest
and the prizes.
Two thousand people turned out to
see the girls and young women throw
and the event proved Of such interest
that it will be made an annual affair
and the next contest will be held dur
ing the Alaska Yukon Pacific expo
siton in 1909 and will probably con-
tinue over few days as a state
championship, a Pacific coast cham
pionship and possibly national
championship will be fixed An ef-
fort will be made to have the Amateur
Athletic union take official notice of
the event.
The best thrown now on record
was made by Miss Alice Belding Of
Vassar college, who made 1876 feet,
three inches. The best throw in the
Seattle contest was made by Miss
Frances Jackling, a high school girl,
who covered 1872 feet, six inches. Six
others made over 10 feet and a IA
year old girl made 1873 feet.

the atmosphere of speculation and is
at last a tangible reality
A little more than two years ago
the United States senate ratified the
convention of the powers that created
the institute. OF late a noticeable
change in the thought of European
economists and business leaders Is
said to have taken place regarding
the project. A few months ago even
the most progressive were somewhat
skeptical. Some openly scoffed at the
attempt to checkmate the manipu-
lators of markets. Others spoke of
the difficulties of gathering reliable
information, seeing in the magnitude
of the project its chief danger, and
there were some who saw in 1t only
unattainabe ideal Now the seutl-
ment of Germany, France and Eng
land is said to be crystalized into a
strong support of the institute. In
London especially, the opinion is ex-
pressed that the institute is destined
TO become the greatest agricultural
and commercial agent in the world,
and that it will be to a very large
degree successful in its aim to pre-
vent spasmodic fluctuations in the
prices Of the great staples of agrlcul-
ture.
