of the ball rests in the palm OF
the hand, fingers around point of
ball, which is tossed end over end.
The spiral pass, SO necessary now,
is made by holding the ball near
, the middle, resting lengthwise
across the palm an dswinging the
arm forward across the awist. AS
the swing ends, the hand is pulled
over the ball, giving the spin.
Passing, by quarterback, can
not be practiced too much. II the
fullback is to go through the left
side, the quarter must bring his
right foot back behind his left, to
give the back a chance to go
straight through. The ball must
be PLACED in the pit of the backs
stomach.
Unless he gets the ball low the
back cannot hit the line effectively.
He must keep his hands at his
sides until the ball is placed
against his body.
When passing to halfback for
a line plunge on his left, the quar-
ter should turn. step to the left
and simultaneously pass the ball
on a line, little lower than the
waist. Successful plays outside
tackle or around end depend much
upon the passing. Speed is neces-
sary, and unless the pass is sure,
! no back can start quickly.
Pas tseh ball just ahead of the
running back, aiming at his out
side hip. This makes him keep
coming" Immediately after pass
ing the ball the quarter should get
into the interference.

Cured
Of
Lumbago
and Sciatica

When Mr.. Sharp called at
the Washington Sanitarium
he was very sick man, and
had been for a long time, and
become respondent. He was
incapacitateG FOR work, but
his cure was speedy.
Mr.. Sharp says:
Il have been a victim OF
lumbago and sciatica for
years and it seemed as
though l could get nothing
that would give permanent
relief. My attention was call
] ed to the Human Bake Oven,
but did not like the idea
of the heat the ytalKed about,
but | went to them and after
being taken over the institu-
ton l decided to try the
treatment. For a while l did
not get much relief, but / felt
somehow that / would be
cured if l stayed with 1t.
Then | began to eat heartily
and | was in a enc condition
and continued SO. 1t Is q
pleasure to take this treat
ment and the baking is not q
thing to be afraid of. My
home is at Loon Lake, and 1
am well known there and in
this section of the country.
You can rest assured that /
am cured all right, and I am
perfectly willing for you to
use my name in any way or
time. Just refer any one to
me.
Il saw many people while
was taking tneAt-satments,
cured and others on
their way to recovery, and
they all had the same story
to tell. Every attention was
gwen me that could be given
during my stay and it was
homelike in every way. The
doctors in charge said they
could cure me, unG they did
it, and an less time than they
said they could. am return
ing to my home at Loon Lake
and am very thankful that l
can return to my work again
and my appetite indicates
strength to come. 1t is re-
markable to me how was
cured and | often wake up in
the morning wondering II 1t
is not mistake, but when l
swing my arms and legs and
know can. use them freely, !
realize again how much was
done for me.

If SNOW NEVER FELL.
Effect Upon the Worlds Crops Would
Be Disastrous.

Be Disastrous.
If all the condensed moisture OF the
atmosphere were to fall as rain and
none Of it was snow, hundreds Oh
thousands of square miles OF the
earth's surface now yielding bountiful
crops would be little better than
desert The tremendous economic
gain for the world at large which re-
suits from the difference between
snow and rain is seldom realized by
the inhabitants of fertile and well
watered 1owlands.
1t is in the extensive regions where
irrigation is a prime necessity In
agriculture that the special uses OF
snow come chiefly into view. All
through the winter the snow is fall
ing upon the mountains and packing
itself firmly in the ravince. Thus in
natures great ice house a supply Of
moisture is stored up for the follow
ing summer.
All through the warm months the
hardened snowbanks are melting
gradually. In trickling streams they
steadily feed the rivers which as they
flow through the valleys are utilized
for irrigation. If this moisture fell
as rain it would almost Immediately
wash down through the rivers, which
would hardly be fed at all in the sum
mer when the crops most needed
water.
These facts are so well known as 70
be commonplace in the Salt Lake val
ley and in the subarid regions OF the
West generally. They are not SO well
understood in New Jersey or Ohio,
| where snow is sometimes a pic
| turesque, sometimes a disagreeable
| feature of winter.
In all parts of the country the no
| ton prevails that the snow is OF great
| value as a fertilizer. Scientists, now
ever, are inclined to attach less i'm
| p0rtance to it's service in soil nutri
tion-for some regions that have nc
snow are exceedingly fertile-than tc
it's worth as a bla~ '-et during the
months of high winds. 1t prevents
the blowing off of the finely pulver
lied richness of the top soil. This
although little perceived, would otter
| be great loss.

you are saved?' 'As nearly as a

MISSIONARIES AND BADE'S
MIXTURES TO PLAY TODAY
Rain Caused Postponement of. Game
Scheduled for Yesterday

Rainy weather caused the game
scheduled for yesterday afternoon be-
tween Whitman and Bade's Mixtures
to be called off. The game will be
played today at AIS on Ankeny field.
This is the third game between the
Walla Walla team and the Mission
cries, and as each has taken one, the
interest and rivalry is running high.

practice yesterday, the coach thinking
little rest would put them on their

Mixtures are an aggregation of we'll

team work.

THE INCOME TAX.

Mr.. Aldrich insists upon his figures.
The Payne bill as amended by the re-
publican members of the senate finance
committee will produce revenue enough
to support the government. He rein
forces his own calculations with those
Of treasury officials, and asks that they
be accepted
But, says the senator, still balancing
the question, if the figures fall short,
the solution will not be more taxes, but
small appropriations. Estimates will
have to be reduced to meet the amounts
raised by the customs schedules. He
thinks that, anyhow, we have been
spending too much money. He could
apply the knife and lop of fifty millions
of dollars annually.
This is not the most assuring kind
of talk, even for a senate tWo-thirds re-
publican, and it leaves the country at
large a little cold toward Mr.. Aldrich's
position, The revenue producing power
of a tariff bill should not carry as an
attachment a single if, but or and. 1t
should be above all suspicion on that
score. 1t should not be absolutely at
the mercy of a fat year or lean year
in the matter of importations Taxes
should be laid so as to guarantee a lib
eral margin over all reasonable expen-
ditures. The governments support
should be incontestably assured.
This was the presidents idea prob
ably in recommending an inheritance
tax. That tax, he saw, would not be
c11ni 10 no n
customs taxes. 1t would afford the
union OF those fine old certainties, death
and taxes. There is a pretty steady
death rate, even in this healthy country
and inheritances continue right along.
A tax laid on them would always be
good for a snug sum that would come
in very well in any old year.
And the same argument applies to an
| income tax. Incomes would yield
steadily, and business would be in no
wise disturbed by changes in rates or
| adjustments from time to time.
In this view OF the general question, q
| debate on the income tax and othe,
! forms of direct assessments should be
welcomed, whether any such faxes are
| levied now or not. The country is IN
terested in the subject, and in the SEN
ate today are men unusually we'll quail
| fled to discuss it. Mr.. Aldrich on the
one side and Mr.. Bailey on the othH~ are
alone worth the price of admission
The republicans are lucky in this fea-
ture as in others of the contest If nc
direct taxes are laid at this session, and
six months of the operations of the Jaw
without them should show them necas-
sary, they think they can be laid next
winter eight or ten months before the
day for choosing the new congress.

NOW FOR AFRICAN WONDERS.

The mighty hunter has reached the
shore of the dark continent, and is now
pushing his way impatiently into the
interior eager for the jungle, the smell
of rank vegetation, the trumpet of the
elephant, the roar of the lion, the Whln-
nv of the zebra, the chatter of the mon
kew. the snort of the nippOpotamuS and
the squeal of the Okapi. From now on
the public may expectlsome marvellous
tales of his proves, accounts OF MS
wonderful hardihOOd, his endurance, his
extraordinary adaptability to strange
conditions and his impetuOuS pursuit of
game Everything will be in the super
lative degree These reports, coming
from no man knows exactly where, will
be restrained by no sense of caution.
Their writers, though not paid dollar
a word, will be certain of market.
Many million people are awaiting bull
letins from the best advertised hunting
expedition ever organized, and they will
gladly read everything that is offered in
the guise of dispatches from the in
terror No exaggeration will be too
gross for publication somewhere WithilI
that the mighty hunter has strangled
a lion with his bare hands there will
be some believers. If it is proclaimed
that he has tied q knot in the trunk OF
a rogue elephant it will be rated al
possible. If he shoots two charging
rhinoceroses at one stand, at range of
ten feet, the report will be accepted by
numerous readers. Then there will be
details of dangers overcome, of portera
knocked out by the swift pace of this
record breaking Nimrod of fevers sub
dued, of floods encountered, of all sorts
of mysteries met. If any one imagines
that this is to be a dull summer, with
that sort of a neWsmaking proposition
at large in the most interesting of all
the continents, now is the time to re-
wise the estimate.

flee, however, was to set the instr.
ments to work at a considerably lower
speed. A high speed of working nee.
essitates a very heavy current, and in
the case of wire SO adapted there is
interference not only with adjacent
telephone circuits, but also with other
telegraph lines. To make up for this
it is found necessary to reduce the
sensitiveness of such adjacent appar.
atus.
A high speed over wire does not
necessarily mean the rapid transmits
sion of message. 1t involves the
distribution of a long message into
very large number of fragments, and
the time saved over the wire may cas-
lily be lost several times over in pre-
pairing message for transmission
and in placing it together after it has
been received.
