No, Angeline, it is hardly just to
class base ball players with drunkards.
The average baseball player has to
avoid stimulants, otherwise his day
soon glides by. A church member
could take dram every morning and
no one notice it, but first-class ball
player would be Immediately "spot-
ted" by his manager and ordered to
quit. Ball playing is an athletic sport,
or diversion, which keeps the nation
from cankering by inertia or laziness,
and cannot possibly be classed with
drunkenness.

A SIMPLE SAFEGUARD IN BUYING
PAINT,

Everybody should know how simple
and easy it Is to avoid all uncertainty
In buying paint material,. There are
many so-called white leads on the
market. which contain chalk, zinc,
barytes, and other cheap adulterants.
Unless the property ownsr takes ad-
vantage of the simple mans of pro-
lection afforded him by r.liable white
lead manufacturers. he runs great risk
of getting an inferior and adulterated
white lead.
1t is to protect the paint buyer
against fraud and adulteration that
National Lead Company, the largest
makers of genuine Pure White Lead,
place their famous Dutch Boy Paint
er" trademark on every keg of their
product, an absolute guarantee of its
purity and quality. Anyone who wants
TO make practical test of white lead.
and who wants a valuable free book
about painting. should address Ma
tional Lead Company, Woodbridge
Bldg. New York. and ask for test
equipment.

sneeze cause for pivorce.

Mrs. John Buckles of Denver is af-
ter a divorce because her husband
sneezes. 1t makes her nervous and
the baby nervous. and even the neigh
bors get fidgety and talk when John
wakes up in the middle of the night
with rousing old "Ho-rash-shoo!"
That's the way Mrs. Buckles described
it to the attorney she applied to. John
uses snuff and when he awakened he
would take pinch of snuff and then
lie in bed, hump his back and hora-
shoe so times or more. 1t would
shake the bed and knock all the covers
off and the baby would set up yell, and
Mrs. Buckles just got distracted. The
attorney told her that perhaps John
could not help it, but the lady in
sisted she wouldn't live with the hora-
shoe man. She went off declaring she
would think up some more bad habits
of Johns if sneeZing wasn't fit cause
for action.-Minneapol Journal.

A Strange Will.

A law case with strangely dramatic
adiuncts was lately before the SUI
perior court of ST. Petersburg. The
odd circumstances leading to the legal
proceedings were as follows:
One of the wealthiest land owners
near Smolensk died not long ago
and after the funeral the heirs looked
vainly for the will, but without sue
cess.
A few days later, a Young man, see.
ing a graphophone on table in the
dead mans library. put into it a record
which he supposed was that of popu.
lar Russian song. To his amaZement
and terror. instead OF a song he heard
the voice of the dead man recite the
words of the missing will.
The heirs were notified of the dis.
covery, lawyers were summoned, and
they lost nc time in examining the
record containing the will. 1t was
found to be fawless, and the question
then arose whether will left on a
sraphophone cylinder would be deemed
valid by the courts. 1t is, therefore
on this unique point that the superior
court must render its decision.-Sunday
Magazine.

squirrels and all animals except those
that can be reached by an automo-
bile, but why don't we have law to
protect the heiresses?
Why are these titled slobs permit
ted to borrow car fare. and come over
here and give this fair land fit of
Indigestion?
Why are they permitted to set their
proud and large feet on the soil for
which our forefathers fought and bled
for their country. and for which some
of us are still fighting and bleeding
the country?
Why?
Why do these fat-heads come over
here with a silver cigarette case and
society directory and make every
rich man in the country fasten bur-
glar alarm to his check book?
Find out, Bunch.
A few days ago oEe of these NUTS
with an Edam it'll. jumped off an

ever known on the stock exchange.
All over the COS airy rich men with
romantic, daughti:s rushed to and
fro and then rusb.i back again.
They were up ;.!sainst a crisis.
If you could gS: near enough to the
long-distance telephone, Bunch, you
could hear one i;ch old American guy
shrieking the baJtle-cry to another cap
tain of industl. out in indianapolis:
To arms, II foe. The foe, He
comes with no ling but his full-dress
suit and a blanl: marriage license. To
arms! To armL."
The telegraph wires are also siz-
zling with excitement.
