Th. Androm.d. N.bu,,.

One of the most astonishing objects in the heavens. especially when photo graphed, is the great nebula in the constellation Andromeda, which is vis- ible as misty speck to the naked eye. It has long puzzled astronomers, be- cause while its structure-a series of vast rings surrounding central mass suggests gaseous constitution, It's spectrum is continuous, resembling that of the sun. It has been suggested that 1t may be composed of stars con stituting Q universe external to ours. Recent studies of its parallax, how ever. indicate that 1t is nearer to us than some of the well known stars. such as Capella. and Mir. ]. Ellard Gore. the English astronomer, points out that if the Andromeda nebula were assumed to be an external uni verse, having q diameter comparable with that of the Milky way, It's mass would be forty million million million times the mass of the sun. This is regarded as incredible and 90 may be taken as an additional areumen. in favor of the view that this nebula is member of our system.-Youths Companion. -

best wishes for success next season.
 A former National league manas- CT and player yesterday expressed the belief that McGraw would play Larry Doyle lin the outfield next year and keep Herzog at second base. Herzog, he said, was doing too well at second base to be taken away from there, not hitting as well as Doyle, perhaps, but being a faster fielder and working in better with -Bridwell in the infield. Doyle, this expert figured, could play the out field well enough to strengthen 1t.
 Arthur Irwin's memory has dug up the fact that this isn't the first time National league teams have been tied at the end of the race. In 1882 the Providence and Chicago teams were tied and played of a series of nine. games to decide the pennant. Each won four games, and the final battle took place in Fort Wayne, Indiana. John Ward pitch ed for Providence and the Ansonites batted him all over the field ana won.
 Winter baseball legislation will begin soon. The Eastern league is to meet on October 13.
 President Brush of the New York National league Club late yesterday emphatically confirmed the state- ment of Secretary Knowles that the recent controversy will not be taken to the federal courts.
 We are too good sports for that" said Mir Brush. We shall not contest the matter further. We believe the pennant is ours techni- cally; there is no doubt about this. From a sportsmanshfp point of view 1t is inconceivable how any one can look at this matter otherwise. But, so far as We are concerned, the mat ter will remain as 1t is. We are proud of our record and have such emphatic and constant assurances from far and near as convince us that our position Is generally up held. We fought to finish and be- lieve we stand. on our record as good sports.

WHAT THE KIDNEYS DO.
Their Unceasing Work Keeps Us
Strong and Healthy.

All the blood in the body passes
through the kidneys once every three
minutes. The kidneys filter the blood.
They work night and day. When
healthy they remove about 500 grains
of impure matter daily, when I'M
healthy some part of this impure mat
ter is left in the blood. This brings
on many diseases and symptoms
pain in the back, headache, rheuma-
tism, govt, gravel, disorders of the
eyesight and hearing, dizziness, ir-
regular heart debility, drowsiness,
dropsy deposits in the urine, etc. But
if you keep the filter right you will
have no trouble with your kidneys.
M. t. Myers, living at 101 Lamar
street, Americas, Ca, says: 81 have
used Doan's Kidney Pills and have
no hesitancy in recommending them.
They relieved me of a pain in my
back and regulated the action of

after prices had worked few points
above the closing figures for Monday,
there was a renewal of selling said
to be by the South in part, and the
market settled to a level below that

that the new crop was being threaten

down 10 points.

The Woodmen's Circle is the lad

branch of the order and Groves are
being established in every city where
the Woodmen have an organization.
1t is but natural that Americas
should fall into line and a progressive
and fourishing Grove is expected to
be organized here within the next
month. The work of organizing is
in the hands of Mrs. John Butt, to
whom it has been entrusted by State
Manager T. w. Mitchell, of the w. O..
W.
AS soon as fifteen ladies have con-
sented to unite with the organization
charter for Americas Grove will
be applied for. The initiation of the
members and the formal organization
of the Grove will then take place.
As the Woodmen of the World is
popular organization here and stead
lily increasing in membership it is
probable that the Grove membership
will soon assume large proportions
and the organization prove a very
pleasant as well as profitable addi-
ton to the several associations of
ladies now in existence.
