Outdoor Sports.

Editor MIRRoR:-In your paper
of April Both l saw an article en-
titled Baseball" in which the au-
thor claims that it is the only
game that may be followed with
equal distinctness from the start
to the finish, and the spectators
need not leave their seats.
Now I claim this is wrong, for
in cricket, hockey, and lacrosse the
facilities, from spectators point
of view, are exactly the same as in
baseball. There Is NO game played
in which all the spectators can see
every move played, especially with
such large crowds that go to see
the various games at the present
time.
In 1904 England played Aus
tralia at cricket in Melbourne in
the final test match before an at
tendance of about 1900. Now
there were many who had seats
from which it was impossible to
see all of the game. The same
might be said of the hockey match
in 1897, when the Victorias
of Winnipeg played the Sham
rocks of Montreal before an atten-
dance of IL, 900. Also of lacrosse,
in 1898 the Nationals and Sham
rocks played championship match
in Montreal before 1900 people.
In one of the games for the
championship of the world in
1906, when both of the Chicago
teams were playing for the honor,
there was an attendance of over
.21, 900. The three games | have
mentioned can be as favorably
witnessed as baseball. REX.

A Good Fellow.

OF course he is q good fellow.
Don't all his convivial friends say

and other spirits, turns his BEAM

brave he looks as he beckons them

such as Napoleon might make

is the hero of the moment-a bar

place where his heart broken wife
leads life of utter wretchedness
during the day and an existence of
fear and trembling at nightP Yes,
worse than this heart-hunger, she
and his children know what actual
want means, while he, husband and
father, is showing what good
fellow he is, and how generous.
Generous? Yes; for see how he
insists upon taking his turn in
treating his boon companions, put
ting down his money on the counter
with a bang. Only in the morn

for a little to pay the grocer's bill;
but why does she run up bills for

or he will make trouble for her.
Threaten does he? Yes, indeed,
and that is not all, as her bruised
body could testify, for this ''good
fellow" who neglects his wife, to
shine as a star of q saloon, is a
mere brute, and where you find a
brute you will find no limit to
brutality except the limit made of
oowardice. One of these days he
will 70 too far and the plea of

himself launched into eternity in

How to Make Criminals,

To read closely any one of the
majority of new books of fiction is
practically the equivalent of TAX
ing a course in the gentle art OF
crime.
Almost every recent book or
story coming from the press has,
as part of it's makeup, details of
just what method should be fol-
lowed in perpetrating criminal
act. Friendly rivalry seems to ex-
list as to which writer will produce
the recipe most in demand. -Four
late books, selected at random,
contain in their pages the follow
ing information:
The pleasing rules to be followed

The Word what. :

The word "what" has become 80
pat in many boys experience that
it is an answer to almost every
thing that is said to them. 1t very
often has tone of impoliteness,
if not of insolence about it, that
makes a boy seem very objection
able.
There is a vacant meaning to it,
indicating a habit that is often
tantalizing. Aman once employed
a boy, whom he dismissed in a few
days, solely because he answered
"what" to everything that was
asked him. The employer sent
the boy to his father, saying his
son was a good faithful worker,
but couldn't stand the everlasting
"what" to everything that was said
to him. When-he broke himself
of this habit he might return II ne
desired. This seems to be the
fault, hardly worth the concern
the employer gave it, and yet there
is a lesson in the circumstances
that boy might heed. What is
not proper response for boy to
make to one in authority. II is
harsh and insolent in tone. and
indicates different mind. It is
not simply the form of response to
which the employer objects, but
back of it lies the suspicion that
the boy was not brought up we'll

A Cure for Scandal.

The recent epidemic of scandals
in that section Of society which
low people call high life shows no
signs OF abating. 1t has spread
it's ravages thru America, England
Germany, and just now seems to
be raging with especial virulence
in gay Paris. Where it will break
out next, no man may guess-nor
wants to.
But it shows that when Solomon
prayed to be given neither poverty
nor riches, he knew what he was
talking about. There are many of
US these days who think that the
greater danger was perhaps put
second on the list. Considering
the present amount of wealth in
the world, it is perhaps fortunate
that twenty persons can stand up
under the burdens of poverty for
one who will not go to pieces under
the strain of great and especially
inherited riches. The man OF
women who is freed from RESPONSE
bilities is in as bad a way as the
one who is deprived of his rights.
Perhaps worse, for the deprivation
may be more complete, at least for
time. The hardest taskmaster
must accord the slave some of the
elemental rights, if only to get
work out of his chattel. But in
some portions of society the pos
session of a few million dollars
seems to fence one in almost abso-
lutely from healthy responsibility.
The result is seen in ''houses of
mirth," in money dinners, in di-
vorce suits like the one that is now
on in Paris, or intrigues like that
which recently made Berlin hold
it's nose and call for open windows.
Man is adapted to work. He
has an organism fitted not for soli-
tude, nor for idleness; but for ex-
ertion in a world of similar being.
The old Jewish rule that required
every boy to learn trade was q
wise one-and none need it go
much, as the sons of milllonaires.
The men and women who have, to
work. and work hard, are far less
to be pitied than are those who are
practically prohibited from work

Is the most unreasonable motive
because it stops for neither ditch
nor hedge.
Home is good master, for the
pay is good-interest prompt. Be-
fore we die let us look in upon
one, my boy, and see if it is well
to hasten on too fast. The hearth
and fender look beautiful to the
gentle. Ambition, even when
gratifed, cannot soothe pain or
still the throbbing temple. Wealth
never satisfies the heart. Fame is
like the crumbling frosting to
bridal cake-hard to make-easily
broken. If there was a skylight
in our final house. 80 that we could
see who laughed and who wept
when the sexton spat on his hands,
grasped the shovel, and ratified in
on our sonorous roof the first sod
or mass of frozen dirt or stones
or if their we're windows, so we
could see who followed after with
sad hearts, there would be salts
faction in death-but no. Words
are cheap-they conceal ones
thought. Men call US friends
for fun. They use us as hunters
do rifles-when gone, get another.
We pick up much rubbish as we
look along thru life, my boy-we
learn much not worth learning
we cut the leaves of too many a
book of no beneft-we carry many
a pile of Stag thinking it to be
virgin ore. We coil for use many
a rope of sand.
But there is light to life for
all. There is a cushioned seat if
we but use it.
By the hearth and fender.
When the toll is over. there you
can enter. Some one heart from
all of Gods, has run into your own,
and side by side you sit and dream
of the golden future. How like
heaven are the Home bowers lin
ing our path into the road beyond.
The world may have all the day
been cheerless-the cares of bust
ness may have been like the dew
the keen word, ungrateful act, or
marked neglect may have cut to
the heart-there is still one place
left--Home. And home is as we
make it.
Walter, my boy, it is a pleasant
picture. The clanking gate opens
the eyelids of someone within
the footstep on the walk falls on
the ear like pleasant memories
the hand-touched doorknob stills
for a moment the heart in waiting;
the well-known presence felt by
love lightens the load of the day
the word, the kiss, the gentle clasp
the lovelit glance revealing to each
other treasures the world knows
not of-the gentle drawing to your
breast of the heart which so loves
you; the sigh of relief as the hea-
ven is reached-the kiss of love;
more eloquent than words, more
fervent than heat. These indicate
a chapter in Life's great Book,
but few ever read it.
When the labor of II long day

Hearth and Fender! The blast
may howl without, easements may

THE ROADS, THE HEARTH
AND FENDER.

across plains more
wearisome than toll in their
monotony-thru forests, deep,
dark, and dismal-by pleasant
homes and many-tongued groves
now smooth with turf lined border
then rough and rugged with
Jagged rocks and rolling boulders,
this road winds it's way. It ends
somewhere, my boy-not up tree;
not on the brink of a yawning
chasm; not in some grand, awful
ocean whose wondrous depths moth
ing but the Omnipotent can fathom;
not in little narrow, grave-like
crevices, Yet 1t ends, my boy.
Not abruptly and in trackless
blank, but merging into someother
road-the two becoming one-the
identity of each is lost. and this.
in turn, loses itself in still another
each one beaten and more travelled
than the one we now are on. Val
ter, this road is typical of life.
There are in mans brief existence
Observation-Disclosures running into
ours-our hopes and plans rum
ming into others-all forming
spider-like web of events, reaching
far ana. wide. As the idle boy
loosens one thread of the fine
web of the morning spider, from
some stake or bush-so does time
and fate loosen a friend here-a
friend there, but the falling threads
catch on other points. and the
beautiful web is upheld, repaired,
and enlarged.
And, my boy, when life is over,
it is just begun. The track be-
comes a path-the path byway;
the byway a lane; the lane road;
the road street. The road of life
does not end in a grove-it does
not lose itself in the top of some
bluff-ln some dark chasm-b but
merges into and goes on as another
life, or continuation of this. More
busy yet than this. We step from
the path into the road-the path
we 80 hated to leave-it is done
in a moment, and we are amazed
at the beauties bordering our new
walk. and wonder that we wept to
think that others had reached it's
smoother track before us, or that
we could dread to enter the road
this little one leads into.
The road of life is one Of trials,
my boy. Few can walk without
tripping or stumbling. Few are
they who can walk and not weary
who seek not the shady side for
the rest it gives.
Man is like trunk riding in a
full baggage Car. The outside
does not surely indicate the con-
tents. The check is not always
evidence of it's observation-disclosures
are so many changes. Side by
side we journey on, the humble
satchel filled with valuable papers
between two large trunks filled
with stolen goods-the worn rus
set-covered valise cheek by jowl
with the elegantly sacked store
house of fashion. We see the
trunks in the car-who claims them,
we cannot always tell.
And few of us know how to
walk this road-or any other one.
We go rafting along like pauper
cart-hub.hitting as do omnibuses
in a crowded street--striking posts
and corners, jolting and smashing
the delicate machinery of life, or
wearing it out with too great fric-
ton. Men travel too fast, and be-
fore they grow out. We look 30
