presently pass away, and that the same
divine hand which gathered will scatter
them again, when the warning has
been taken and all our people learn
again the lesson which some forget,
that in law is our surest hope, and
that only in obedience to it's eternal
commands can we live in social order
enduring peace and fulfill the high
mission of civilized life. Let us so
live that good will and gentle peace
may come down from heaven to bless
us all, that justice shall reign among
us, that we be saved from intolerance,
dissensions and suspicion and from
the evils which flow therefrom to vex
the State and divide the people
'T.et us pray that mercy will bring
her balm of healing, and bind up the
wounds of bleeding hearts wherever
they may be, that innocence will not
suffer, that our land be washed of
bloody stains, that we may have faith
and hope and charity, and not forget
the gentle Son of God taught that char
ity is the greatest of these.

TREATMENT OF MUSCLE STRAIN.
Pains Often Mistaken for Rheunna-
tism-Rest tie Cure.

(From Youths Companion.)
A muscle which has been strained
either by overuse or in some unaccus-
toned way often gives rise to such
severe symptoms as to lead to a dag
nosis of some other and more serious
trouble. This affection is not the
same as that called myalgia, which
indeed means pain in muscle, but
is usually of rheumatic or neuralgia
nature. The trouble here meant is
something less serious, being nothing
more than strain.
It is easy to see that any muscular
pain may be mistaken for rheumatism
or some acute Inflammation, as it
may give rise to precisely the same
painful symptoms. For example,
when it occurs in some muscle on the
right side of the abdomen it has been
known to look for time exacly like
the collie of appendicitis, and it has
time and again been treated as true
rheumatism.
There are several ways in which
the facts may be discovered On
questioning it will be found that some
muscle or certain s of muscles has
been subjected to an unusual strain
and is in state of mutiny in conse-
Quence The pain will be worse at
night and better in the morning after
the nights rest, proving that it has a
basis of fatigue, Furthermore, it
will yield entirely to a proper amount
of rest. In fact this one thing-rest
comprises the whole of the treat
ment.
When the abdominal muscles are
involved there must be rest in bed,
with perhaps some anodyne to dead.

Among the new men on the team this
season are two from the South, and
the way they are working is both spec
tacular and sensational Both are
men of great strength, fast and hard
to down. They are already stars on
the Howard team and playing the
kind of game that made them the idols
of the South. Allen from the A. B. c..
team at Atlanta, and Terry from Me
harry are a couple hard to beat, and a
team with two such men in the back
field will strike terror to all corners.
These men are the talk of Washing
ton and even the daily papers, are
speaking of their wonderful work
Noehville feels proud of the fact that
she has turned out such men. The

SPORT.

To The Globe:
On Saturday, November IA, for the
first time this season Pearl High S
football team met an adversary in its
own Bradley Academy, of Muir
freesboro, which fact awakened much
interest in the outcome of the game.
Although Pearl crossed the goal line
three times in the first half, no one
supposed the contest to be decided as
Bradley had made a stubborn resist
ance and retired in good condition
In the second half the defenders of
the cherry red and white entered with
feeling that did not sufficiently dem
onstrate their superiority, while their
opponent, cheered by loyal supporters,
continued to dispute their progress,
romped across Mooney campus for
five successive touchdowns. The game
ended: Pearl "A; Bradley, 0.
Bradleys guards and quarterback
did good work and their team contains
excellent material Their inability to
advance the ball being the main cause
of their defeat.
Davis, PEARLS fullback, received the
ball on a kickoff in the second half
and ran about one hundred yards for
touchdown. Floyd also made SEN
sational end run which resulted in a
touchdown Those who shared in the
touchdowns for Pearl were Hurt, 3;
Upshaw, 2; Floyd, / Leach, / and
Davis, l. Of the eight touchdowns
four goals were kicked by Hurt, the
| remainder being at difficult angles

Tuskegee outplayed Talladega Sat

games witnessed here in many sea-
sons. Both teams put up splendid
game. Tuskegee won because she had
the better team. and her playing was
high class. The score should nave
been larger, but several bad plays at
the wrong time kept Tuskegee from
scoring. Talladega also has a strong
team and one that fights hard all the
time and was only defeated after a
hard struggle. Tuskegee has a strong
team this season and will have every
reason for laying claims to the cham
