BASKET BALL RULES
Changes Made to Eliminate Rough
Playing.

The rules governing the game of
basket ball have been revised by the
national committee. The changes
adopted are numerous. Under the new
rules the umpire's duties undergo
slight change. He is no longer sup
posed to watch the man with the ball
and his opponent, but the other eignt
men in the game The holding and
rough play which have developed as a
result of the fact that both the UNI
pires have in the past watched the
struggle over the ball, will, it is eX-
pected, be eliminated by the new
ruling. This will also make the ref
cree work harder than ever to catch
fouls.
In the future the scorekeeper will
be obliged to compare the score after
each goal, and in case they do not
tally call the referee Immediately. The
referee must otherwise accept the
larger score. The committee made a
change in the rules for dribbling
which Is of great Importance. Now,
if the player who is dribbling the ball
down the field stops and holds the
ball at rest in one or both hands he
will be obliged to throw it for the
goal or to another player. II he
wishes to continue the dribble after
stopping he must keep the ball bouncs
ing up and down as he stands.
Formerly, If the three players put
their hand on the ball at once, Che
side having two men touch the ball
fouled Now if two players are strug
Cling for possession OF the ball, a
third man who comes into bodily con-
tact with either of them is penalized
but he may reach under them and Sc
cure the ball without a foul If he does
not touch them.
If the referee calls play BALI" and
the members of a team for some rea-
son fail to take their places at the
end of the minute the referee will
throw the ball into the air and the
play is started anyway. An important
change was made in the boundary line
In the past the line has been inside.
NOW any player or the ball touching
the line at all is outside. The ball is
outside If player standing on the
side seizes the ball or it is thrown to
aim. Glass backgrounds for the bas-
kets are legalized under the new rules
These have until now been illegal.

The Opinion of An Expert Poultry
Breeder

Poultry breeders who have gained
a reputation for the reliability of their
stock either for exhibition or for gen
eral purposes are the ones whose ex-
ample is well worth following. c A.
Browning of Apponaug, r. l., is sucn
a one and what he says about poultry
food is therefore of especial interest
and value. He says, in a recent let
ter: Il have found Pages Perfected
Poultry Food to be a first class artl-
Gle. feed it the year around. Chicks
need it when they are growing; pull
lets need it when they are laying and
later during the moulting period it is
a great help"
If you want to know more about
this food and the best ways of using
it, write to c. S. Page, Hyde Park,
VT, for his booklet Profitable Poul-
try" It will be sent free, postpaid,
to anyone mentioning this paper.

BAD BILIOUS
ATTACK I

There Is nothing that will more COM
pletely knock out a man, or woman either,
and entirely inoapacitate them for work or
pleasure, than a bad attack of biliousness.
You get up with a headache which increases
il you stoop over. You are dizzy when
you stand up straight again. Your tongue
IS coated and your mouth tastes bad. You
are irritable and out of sorts. That's
biliousness.
If you want to get right again remove
the cause. Your bowels are clogged. The
natural sewers of the body fail to carry off
the poisonous matter. The bile is being
absorbed by the blood, and your whole
body is crying out against the imposition.
Take three Smiths Pineapple and Butter
nut Pills at once Don't wait till you 60 to
bed. Then take two more when you retire.
1t is astonishing to see how quickly they
will relieve. They restore the liver and
stomach to normal activity and purify the
blood. Physicians use and recommend.
They form no habit. You should always
keep these little Vegetable Pills on hand
They ward off many ills.
