NATURE SPARES


Inc Stfhcken Muse rTOm Urhchs
What a fortunate provision of nature
It is, that deprives the rose of mental
suffering; for how poignant would be its
grief to discover. in the height of its
blooming glory, that a canker fed at its
heart, and that it's beauty and fragrance
were doomed forever. Nature always
spares the suffering; she is a veritable
store-house of pleasing rewards, for
those who seek her aid. In the years
gone by falling hair and yne have
cast a gloom over the lives of thousands
of young women, but thanks to the in
~vestigations of scientists the true cause
of hair destruction is now known to be
a germ or parasite that burrows into
the hair follicles. Newbro's Herpicide
absolutely destroys this germ, thus
permitting the hair to grow as ma
ture intended. Sold by leading drug

THE FINE POINTS OF BASE BALL.

Hugh S. Fullerton, the base ball eX-
pert, who is writing series of articles
for the American Magazine, says, in the
May number, by way of introducton:
"Almost any spectator at major
league ball game will tell you; On, I'M
derstand base ball., yet in every game
hundreds of moves are made and orders
issued and obeyed, all with exact pur-
pose and scientific intent, that not one in
a thousand sees or realizes. The game
has made such wonderful advances scien-
tifcally, and the membership and team
WORK have become so involved and COM
plicated, that the lover Of the game, even
one who attends scores Of games each
season, rarely sees or understands the
fine points OF the game, or knows how,
or why, a play is made even after it is
successfully completed.
EVERY catcher and pitcher in the Big
League knows to an inch how far each
base runner may leave any base and get
back safely. A catcher will throw to
catch Miller Higgins, of Cincinnati, for
instance. when he leaves first base over
twelve feet while he will let Fred Clarke,
OF Pittsburg, take sixteen, even eighteen
feet, without making throw with in
tent to catch him. If he throws, it is to
drive Clarke back, and keep him from
getting too great start. Every intielder,
at least, knows just how certain men
will make play, and turn their play ac-
ocrdingly. For instance, with Wagner
on first and Tommy Leach on third, every
catcher in the National League throws
to third if Pittsburg attempts double
steal, because it is well-known fact
%hof T o%b q rrond hooo
runner, will come through with the
play that is, if the catcher makes mo-
ton as if to throw to second base and
Their whips it to third, Leach will make
false start for the plate and be caught.
In the last season Chicago defeated Pitts
burg three times because, with either
Wagner or Clarke on first, Leach was
caught off third on exactly the same play.
Each man must know whether Mike
Donlin pulls a fast ball or not, whether
or not he hits curve to left. He must
know that Fred Clarke is the only left
handed batter in the game who can hit
left-handed pitchers curve ball hard
and a thousand other points of similar
nature. "Besides knowing those things
the team must play, as whole, so as to
cover every inch of ground possible, and,
by moving away and vacating parts of
the field where batter is unlikely to hit,
they can defend the remainder with
much greater success. A 'right-feld
hitter'-one who swings late at the ball
or pulls his body away from the: plate,
seldom is good batter. he may MT the
ball just as squarely and just as hard as
free hitter, but the field into which he
hits the ball is much better covered and
the likelihood Of the ball falling safe
much lessened."

WHAT ARBOR DAY MEANS.
The Planting of Trees Contributes Much te
the Welfare of the Nation.

The conviction which Arbor day car
ries with it is not merely that trees
should be planted, but that we should
plant trees ourselves. because our coun-
Try requires them. There is urgent need
that trees be planted not only where
trees will grow, but where other crops
will not grow at all or will not grow
profitably.
This young nation has felt so sure of
the boundlessness of that large part Of
its own strength which lies in the forest,
that for several hundred years it went on
using it up. Now it is beginning to see
that there will soon be an end to it I'M
less it is used wisely.
Ii We had no timber, our condition
would be more dreadful than if we had
no coal. We would neither be happy nor
healthy, and the great opportunities
ahead, for the improvement of our minds
and our bodies and our general condition,
would be closed to US.
This does not mean that all our coun-
try should be covered with trees. We
need trees only in their right place.
Before Columbus landed this country
was probably half forest instead of about
one-fourth forest, as now. East of the
j.
Then the country supported only few
hundred thousand Indians. Now it
probably supports more Indians than it
did then, and eighty-odd million other
people as we'll. The early settlers, who
fought the Indians as well as the hard
ship, the loneliness and the strange con-
ditlons OF new country, with patience
and courage which we should never for
get, had to fight the forest as well. They
drove it back from the fertile valleys
with the axe and with fire, and farms
took its place. And that was necessary,
and it was right, because land which
will grow food proftably has no business
under trees.
And so it went on, until the time has
come when every man can see that our
/ forests are going fast, and that if we dc
not take care of those which are left we
shall soon be without forests enough tc
produce what timber we need. That
is where we stand today. Many people
realize that something must be done, but
only few have begun to do 1.-THE
