belong only to him who can enjoy
them.
Many of u business men are be-
ginning to see that frequent vacations
r the best investments they IA
make; that nothing else pays them
SO we'll as keeping in tune, keeping
fit for work. AS a rule. the men who
rarely take vacations, who think they
a not be spared a few days, a month
or a year, IL necessary, from their
offices, who think that everything
would go to pieces IL they should go
on a long vacation or take a trip
abroad, do not accomplish as much
and do not keep in as good physical
trim as those who combine play with
their work, who work hard when they
work and play hard when they play.
The men who are everlastingly
grinding at their work, and who play
very little, not only age much faster,
but also as a rule accomplish much
less than those who take time for
recreation, for regeneration.
The monotony of the strain Of per-
petual grinding tends to unbalance
men. They become hidebound and
rutty. Their mentality shrivels. They
touch life at SO few points that they
become narrow and very uninterest-
ing. All work and no play inevitably
tends to make a man n sided.-Suc-

DOES A VACATION PAY?

What a difference there Is in what
two people bring home from a vaca-
ton! One comes back tired, disgust
ed, bored. He has spent his money
and doesn't feel hat he has much
of anything In return. Another comes
back all radiant with the riches which
he has drunk in and absorbed during
every moment of his vacation. He
comes back rejuvenated, refreshed, in
spired, a new creature, with a new
grip upon life. The cobwebs, the brain
ashes have been swept away from his
faded brain. He has been made over
anew. Life means more than ever be-
fore. His dimmed ideals have been
frightened and sharpened, his ambi-
ton renewed. Ask him II a vacation
pays, and he will ask you in turn II
1t pays the grub to throw off its ugly
shape and blossom out into a butter
fly; It 1t pays a rosebud to open up
its petals and fling out it fragrance
and beauty to the world.
When you go into the country. make
up your mind that you are going into
Gods great gallery of charm and
beauty to enjoy yourself and to see
what you a get out of 1t. Resolve
that you will come home laden with
riches that no money can buy; that
you are going to extract from the
landscape-from the mountains, the
valleys, the fields and the meadows
a wealth which does not inhere in
the dollar.
Learn to drink in beauty and health
at every pore! Try to realize that
the flowers, the grass. the trees, the
brooks, the hills-the charm and
beauty everywhere-are Gods smiles;
that they are for him only who can
appreciate them. who can respond to

 There had been some brilliant plays during r1e opening of the game but the contest was not to be brought 90 it's logical conclusion. Catcher HoT e the Regulars dislocated finger .earty in the game and was replaced ny Corrs,. who broke one of his fingers and was replaced by HoT, wilh rrL consent of the Morenci team.
 Bradford, sliding to base, skinned and bruised his shoulder. calling 10. another pitcher. and later returned to the game, again with the consent ui the Morenei team.
 There was no squabbline over any of these changes and the game was spinning along at a merry rate, with the score tied at the 2-Dark

Ducky start ed for home like a rocket and the pitcher let fly the ball to the catcher to put aim out, when Bradford whirIed around and struck the ball from the catcher's h.nds with the bat, not yet having left the box, although he had apparently turned ais back to Ihe pitcher
 Ducky scored and the run was aI- lowed by Umpire Hammons. wheTeon mighty rear went up from MoreHci and 9 number of the fans. all of whom contended loudly that Bradford had no right to strike at the ball back wards
 Something of a selsation YVES ere ated during the following wTangle by the umpire calling all bets off. The argument hurled at him was so crisp and pungent, as well as yoiuminous, that it took him just about a pair O. seconds to decide that the betting was none of his business, and he admitted that he had no right to interfere with it.
 But he stuck to his decision, never theiess. and Morenci stalked off the field in high dudgeou, whereon the score was declared to be to 1, III favor of Globe, which at the time had one on base and nobody out
 The double-hesder today is awaited with much impatienee by the fans, all of whom are now eager to see the supremacy of the two teams decided, confident that the feeling engendereL yesterday will be a wonderful stim- ulus to close and fast playing, with both teams strictly on their mettle-
