When we arrived at Hongkong,

CATION of baseball fans from Canton

by cable TO play game In this great
Chinese metropolis and the players

Keen anticipation. II would mark
the first appearance OF regularly
organized baseball club in this an
Client city, and. moreover. II would
give the All-Americans an opportun-
ity to see the wonderful sights. On
the way out only Bliss, Burns, and
F'laherty awaited themselves of the
chance to visit Canton, though the
team stopped nearly week at Hong
kong and II is only nights ride on
boat going up the river to this big
city. by the time we reached Hong

were tired of sightseeing, so they
PASSED up the greatest sight in the
Orient. which they now regret.
But for beating rain which over
took us at Hongkong and continued
with us all the way up to Canton and
back, the players might have visited

Manager Fisher had to accept. and
take chances with the weather. The
Canton boat pulled out as soon as OUT

spells when II looked as IL the clouds

they were brief. when We touched
Canton II was raining cats and dogs

that such game bunch OF sports
should miss the game, which may be
the last time a professional baseball
club will ever visit Canton.
There Is an athletic field not far
from the white settlement. though
we didn't see IL and II, was here
that the game was to have been play

all the details, printed posters, stock

refreshments, and carefully selected
its lineup, which was to down the
All-Americans, and, really, they had
a bunch that they would. And even
the umpire had been named. The cap

Why Streams Are Disappearing,

Anyone who has reached the age Of
IS has noticed the disappearance Of
the small brooks where he played in
his district school days, while larger
ones have shrunk to summer threads.
and rivers that filled their banks all
the year are hardly more than rivu-
lets in summer. Commissioner Whip
pie of New York state tells up that the
upper Hudson, in August of 1907, had
no more than Swo inches of water
where IL used to roll heavy volume.
There is substantial agreement that
this change has been due to the denu-
dation of our hills and valleys of the
water-holding trees. 1t takes a cen
tury to grow such forests as we found
covering the continent: it has taken
half century to destroy them.-The

REMAINS OF PolMITIvE ~.
Discovery That Seems to Clear Up Dis
puted Point

The name Nsanderthaloid has beer
used to denote an extremely ancient
race of men. of which remains were
first found in 1856 in the Neander va,
ley, Germany. Since then an entire
skeleton OF an adult woman of the
same type was found in Dordogne.
France, in 1905. and only q few months
ago. near the same place. there was
unearthed the skeleton OF a youth
showing the typical characteristics OF
the race-strongly developed supraor
bital ridges. powerful maxilla, large
teeth. etc. The wisdom teath were
still In their alveoli. The lower Jaw
was prognathous to an extent almost
calling to mind the muzzle of an ami.
NAL. The canine teeth were not very
highly developed. as in anthropoiti
apes The bones O. the limbs were en-
tirely in accord with the type known
TO US in paleolithic man, the femur
massive and stubby, the radius curved
Near the human remains were found
those of Bos primigenius.
The attitude in which the body was
placed seemed to indicate that it had
been placed there for burial This is OF
special interest, as it has hitherto been
somewhat generally held that primi
tive man did not bury the dead. and
that this was an indication OF his en-.
tire lack OF all religion.

PUT HAPPY END TO QUARREL.
Taesfui Act That Reeoneiied Old
Friends Long Parted.

The passenger on the car looked
slightly alarmed, investigation was
proving that he had no smaller change
than five-dollar bill. He offered 1t
TO the conductor in vain.
Can't make the change" said the
autocrat, reaching for the bell rope.
The passenger started meekly for
the door. A man in front of him stood
up suddenly and said: Let me pay
your fare. John
The other passengers looked re-
lieved, but instead of accepting the
happy offer. John scowled da-kly at
he speaker. 10 the great surprise Of
the observers, and evidently would
have refused to accept the favor had
not the other man insistently closed
the deal with the conductor, in spite
OF Johns protest, all the time keep
ing up low conversation with John.
The scowl slowly melted from Johns
brow. and soon the two men were
seated side by side, chatting con
genially.
After John left the car, the stranger
betook himself to the platform with
his cigar, where he explained to the
conductor.
That man and l used to be good
friends, but we had a quarrel and have
not been on speaking terms for years
! have tried several times in various
ways to make it up with him, but
never before have succeeded Even
this time he was obdurate at first but
| didn't give him any chance TO get
away. He has promised to take lunch
con with me today, and that will
clinch the matter. Glad you didn't
make the change"

The Bread and Pipe Baker.

The lecturer at the cooking school
sometimes enlivened her arks with
an anecdote.
THE eighteenth century b-ker," she
said, was a pipe-cleaner as well, just
as the barber little earlier was sur.
geon.
Everybody in those days smoked
clay pipes, provided. the same as cups
or spoons, by the coffee houses. Well,
each morning a waiter carried his
masters stock of pipes-some hun.
dred perhaps-to the nearest bakery.
The baker would boil them out, then
dip them in liquid lime, then bake
them dry. They came out of the oven
as sweet and white as new"

Whote Matter Settled by Four Women
Over the Tea Table.

The women, taking their tea by the
club window, talked.
They have a girl prompter at the
Garrick theater," said one. The man
ager told me last night that he'll have
none but women prompters after this
Their fine, clear voices carry SO beau
tifully across the stage. while at the
same time they are quite inaudible In
the auditorium
"Of course" said another. IN teach
ing living languages. too, woman is
incomparably better than a man. a
man has a thick cultural voice. His
words are all mumbled and jumbled.
But a woman's clear delivery-her
open voice-gives every syllable its
just value. In studying French or Ger
man or Italian, choose a woman, and
your progress will be easier and
faster"
Norwegian horses" said . third
woman, are at once spirited and gen.
tie. Do you know why? Because it is
the women. the farm women, who
break them. They make pets of them
first: the colts feed from their hands
and follow them about like dogs. After
that their breaking is easy. 1t is only
done by kindness. And the result is
that Norwegian horses have the best
dispositions in the world"
A fourth woman settled the whole
matter.
'As mental power Gusts muscular
power" she said, woman, save in such
irremediably brutal vocations as sur
gerry or pig-sticking, will supersede
man all along the line

,de. by No Means New.

The object of New York's newest
club is to eat wisely but not too well.
That is, to educate housewives in the
domestic sciences. But this idea Is as
old as the hills and was tried by Bos-
ton years ago with more or less fail
iure. Clubs of domestic science are all
over the United States now and one
can determine their value to society
by barking back to the old days OF the
simple life when eating and the prepa-
ration of food was not the main object
and the servant problem had not
started on its wild career.

GET OUT OF WORRYING HAClT
Exercise Of Reasonable Amount Of
viii Power Is Necessary.

1t will usually be found useless to
try to stop worrying by simply saying:
II won't worry" That is the negative
way of reaching the trouble. Some
thing must be put in its place. Kav-
ing assumed the general attitude of re-
sistance to 1t, fill the mind with
thoughts of other things. Get an in
teresting book indoors and keep out
doors as much as possible, and get
into good physical condition. People
in sound health are almost neve,
known to worry A person who has
worried habitualfy for long time has
developed grooves into which his m md
easily slides. He can change the di-
rection of his thought very much by
autosuggestion. The Last thing be-
fore going to sleep or just after awak-
ening, when the subconscious self is
said to be easier to reach, suggest new
topics, and If this is persistently done
and reasonable amount of will power
exercised, the worries will scatter
