''He knew how to give me brains,
and very good brains, too," said the
Scarecrow.
If Or had taken dose of the same
courage he gave me-" added the Lion,
he would have been a brave man"
Dorothy said nothing. Or had not
kept the promise he made her, but he
had done his best, so she forgave- him
AS he said, he was good man. even
if he was bad Wazard.
The first days journey was through
the green fields and bright flowers
that stretched about the Emerald
City on every side. They slept that
night on the grass, with nothing but
the stars over them; and they rested
very well, indeed.
In the morning they travelled on
until they came to thick wood. There
was no way of going around it, for it
seemed 20 extend to the right and left
as far as they could see; and, besides,
they did not dare change the direction
of their journey for fear of getting
lost. So they looked for the place
where it would be easiest to get into
the forest.
The Scarecrow. who was in the
lead, finally discovered big tree
with such wide spreading branches
that there was room for the party to
pass underneath. So he walked for
ward to the tree, but just as he came
under the first branch they bent down
and twined around him, and the next

and flung headlong among his fellow
travellers.
This did not hurt the Scarecrow but
it surprised him. and he looked rather
dizzy when Dorothy picked him up.

crow. for it doesn't hurt me to get
thrown about" He walked up to an
other tree, as he spoke, but its
branches Immediately seized him and
tossed him back again.
This is strange exclaimed Doro-
thy, what shall we do?"
THE trees seem to have made up
their minds to fight us, and stop our
Journey" remarked the Lion.
Il believe | will try it myself" said
the Woodman, and shouldering his ak
he marched up to the first tree that
had handled the Scarecrow so rough
ly. When a big branch bent down to
seize him the Woodman chopped at it
so fiercely that he cut it in two. At
once the tree began shaking all its
branches as if in pain. and the Tin
Woodman passed safely under it.
Come on" he shouted to the 9th
ers; ''be quick"
They all ran forward and passed
under the tree without injury except

branch and shaken until he howled
But the Woodman promptly chopped
off the branch and set the little dog
free.
The other trees of the forest did
nothing to keep them back, so they
made up their minds that only the
first row of trees could bend down
their branches, and that probably
these were the policemen of the for
est, and given their wonderful power
in order to keep strangers out of it.
The four travellers walked with
ease through the trees until they came
to the further edge of the wood. Then,
to their surprise, they found before
them high wall which seemed to be
made of white china. 1t was smooth,
like the surface of dish. and higher
than their heads.
What shall we do now?" asked Dor
othy.
Il will make ladder" said the
Tin Woodman, for we certainly must

with the green soldier with the green
whiskers. who had walked with them
as far as the gate When the Guar
dian of the Gate saw them again he
wondered greatly that they could leave
the beautiful city to get into new trou-
BILE. But he at once unlocked their
spectacles, which he put back into the
green box, and gave them many good
wishes to carry with them.

the Scarecrow; so you must come
back to us as soon as possible"

Scarecrow replied; but l must help
Dorothy to get home first"
AS Dorothy bade the good-natured
guardian last farewell, she said:
Il have been very kindly treated in
your lovely city, and every one has
been good to me. | cannot tell you
how grateful l am"
Don't try, my dear" he answered.
I'VE should like to keep you with us,
but if it is your wish to return to Kan

and they walked forth and started
upon their jorney.
The sun shone brightly as our
friends turned their faces toward the
Land of the South. They We're all in
the best of spirits, and laughed and
chatted together Dorothy was once
more filled with the hope of getting
home, and the Scarecrow and the Tin
Woodman were glad to be of use to
her. AS for the Lion, he shifted the
fresh air with delight and whisked his
tail from side to side in pure joy of
being in the country again, while Toto
ran around them and chased the
moths and butterflies, barking merrily
all the time.
City life does not agree with me at

along at a brisk pace. Il have lost
much flesh since l lived there, and
now l am anxious for a chance to
show the other beasts how courageous

They now turned and took last
look at the Emerald City. All they
could see was mass of towers and
steeples behind the green walls, and
high up above everything the spires
and dome of the palace of Or.
"Oz was not such bad Wizard,
after all" said the Tin Woodmau, as
he felt his heart rattling around in his
breast.

Mems League Bible Study Group.

For eight months last year a group
of about thirty men met regularly ev-
cry Sunday morning from 10 to IL
clock in the pastor of Central Union
church for the study and discussion
of the fundamental questions of the
Christian religion. There was a spirit
of frankness about the discussions
that at once made every man feel at
home and ready to take part. There
was no teacher in the usual sense of
that term. Mr.. Ebersole, the assistant
minister of Central Union church, act
ed as leader, directing the discussion
along helpful lives.
The fact that up to the last meet
ing IN June the attendance kept right
up close to thirty men is the best evil
dence that the class was considered
worth while by the men.
Tomorrow morning this class re-
sumes it's sessions again and the com
mittee in charge wishes hereby to
extend most cordial invitation to
the men of the city to attend. 1t is
not Sunday school class. 1t is not
for church members only. In fact one
half of last years attendants were
nonchurch members.
Any man, no matter what his view
nay be, IS weleome to attend if he
wants to make an honest study of the
Bible.
The reading course in the Gospels,
which proved 50 popular last year, vii!
be continued, perhaps until the holt
days. and then the class will take up
the ''Acts and Epistles.''

In lecture delivered at the Royal
Society of Arts by Gabriel Cleather
on the "Musical Aspect of Drums" 1t
was contended that the kettledrum
was one of the few perfect instru-
ments In the orchestra, owing to the
exactness of its scale. The kettledrum,
he contended, was perfectly compe-
tent to produce atmosphere as well as
rhythm. Even to tune the instrument
three things were required-a perfect
musical ear, fine sense of touch and
five years. experience. After playing
over kettledrum melody, written
eighty years ago, from Meyerbeer's
Robert lie Diable," Mr.. Cleather con-
tinued, 'I venture to say that, outside
the musical profession. not one person
in a hundred of those who listen to an
orchestra in England today knows that
tympani have notes and can give out
a melody" No instrument, he added,
had a greater range of power than the
kettledrum, for none could be played
more softly. and none had greater pen
etrating power.-Dundee Advertiser.

Guggies Beat the

The last double-header this year
in the factory league was played at

for the Shelters and Cable Works
and gave the A. S. &c r. the honors
for the season. In the first game,
starting shortly after 2 o'clock, the
Cable Workers defeated the Cheese
broughs by score of to 3. In the
second battle the A. S. & r. boys
trounced the Pardees in hollow style,
8 to /.
1t was an uphill fight for the Wire
makers inathe first game, for their
opponents seemed to have them at
their mercy until the ninth. Wag-
ner made an error that practically
gave the Cables the game. In the
ninth, with two down, the Wiremak-
ers got two over. The scoring was
helped along by Applegate's timely

MANAGER LAKE OF
BOSTON RED S0X
IS A SQUARE PILOT

Manager Fred Lake, of the Boston
Red Sox, is strict disciplinarian. Says
the genial manager of the Boston team,
who is respnsible fr the teams great
showing, ~ have always made it a
point to be absolutely fair with every
body, and have always fund that fair
and square dealing with ball players as
we'll as the public pays in the long run.
"Do on know that even with the
children it is always the best policy
to make them follow along these lines7
have drilled my yungsters, as an epis-
ode that happened the other day will
fully show. Last Sunday | was with
my boy Fred, Jr, having joined the
family at the beach, and | gave him a
dime, as we were walking along the
shore, to buy sme tonic.
''He went to IA booth that is conduct
ed by an old man, hard of hearing as
we'll as near-sighted. Fred put the
piece Of silver in his pocket and walked
up to the stand. On arriving he asked
the old gentleman for bottle of tonic,
which he found to his liking, and after
finishing the beverage started to walk
away
"The old man said to my boy: you
have not paid me yet. yes, have,
replied the youngster. Il gave you a
dime, and the old man, taqing his
word, gave him five cents in change.
The boy ran along the beach with the
money in his hand, and just as he was
Joining me placed the nickel in his
pocket.
GAS he did so he felt the silver that
had given him, and said at once to
me: Oh, gee, pa, L have made mis-
taae, / must go back. what Is the
matteri' | asked him. why, told
that old man 1 paid him and 1 did not.
[ am going back now and give him the
money. And do you know that pleased
me more than little.
"Another incident that l recall was
game between two teams, not profes-
sionals, but there was a great deal of
betting going on by the followers of
both aggregations, and as l suspected
and afterward found out, the pitcher of
the opposing team had some money on
the deal himself The score was quite
close and in the ninth it was my turn
to bat. We were ne run behind, and
when / came to bat he walked to the
plate as if to talk with the catcher.
Gas he passed me he said: / will
stick an easy one over and you bunt it
and will make it all right There
were two on bases at the time and two
out. I did not answer him, but he tooq
silence for consent and he stuck an
easy one square over the pan. AS it
came up | met it squarely and it fioated
over the fence, while three runs rolled
over and we won. Since then [ have
met this twirler several times, but
frm his appearance / do not think he is
any friend of mine. "
