Seeing and Thinking.


Most people see an object when they
think Of 1t. They can see before their
eyes n geometrical drawing or the fig
ures on chessboard when they think
Of them. In order to think at all most
men make use Of images. though they
may be Of different kinds. Thus one
man when he thinks Of "Italy" sees
just the printed word; another sees the
country's outline on a map; another
may see the country spread out before
him, with its villages and towns.
Psychologists are beginning to classify
the different aids or images of which
men make use.s Some, for example,
hear the words Of their thought within
themselves; others read them, as II
the words were written generally In
black on white ground.-Londop

About nothing should fruit buyers
be more careful than the variety ol
their trees. Select the varieties adap-
ted to this locality, those that have been
tried and proved. Time spent in
making proper selection Of varieties is
we'll spent. And above all, buy from
reliable nursery and get trees true to
name. Many experienced fruit grow
ers have bought trees of a certain va
riety only to find out when the trees
came into bearing that they had been
imposed on with some worthless or
Indifferent variety. Buy from a nur-
sery with an established reputation.
Such one is the Oregon Nursery Co.,
Of Salem, Oregon. They have sold
trees in Chelan county for fifteen years
and take pleasure in referring to any Of
thousands of satisfied customers. They
sell trees on their merit. I. H. Cook
is their local salesman. 81

MERCANTILE HOUSES PLAY BALI
Twelve Inning Game Between the leaven-
worth Mercantile Co. and The
Id. Store Co.

Just about the neatest game OF ball
that the fans have seen in long time
was pulled off last Monday when the
Leavenworth Mercantile and the LID.
stores had their little game, the former
winning by score of Is to II.
A large crowd turned out and from
the looks of the grandstand it must
have been ladies' day. A large bunch
of rooters gathered in the bleachers
while a still larger crowd stationed
themselves behind first base. Both
sides had their supporters but the
Mercantile seemed to be the favorite.
The game was called at $3.50 and
the battle began, the Mercantile tax
ing the bat. Coulson was in fine form
and struck them out one-two-three.
The LID. followed and secured one
run.
After the first inning nothing serious
happened until the first of the third
when the Mercantile took batting
streak and before the merry-go-round
could be stopped four men had crossed
the home plate. The next three men
up failed to connect with the ball and
the side was retired.
Then the real trouble began.
Bobby Smith started the rumpus with
nice two base hit but wild throws
permitted him to make a home run
out of it. The Mercantile blew up
completely and by the time things
were quoted down again the LID.
had secured nine runs. Pearl Bissel,
the twirler for the Mercantile then got
down to business and succeeded in
holding the LID. men down until the
ninth inning during which time the
Mercantile had succeeded in tying the
score. The tenth and eleventh innings
were played and still the score
remained tied.
The twelfth proved to be the one.
The Mercantile led off and secured
three scores before the side was retired.
The Id. got two runs right from the
jump off but BissePs curves got the
next two. Then up comes "Bill'' Nye
and popped up high fly over third
base which was captured by Hand
some Harry" Carr after a great run.
Thus ended the battle.
The game was purely pitcher
battle from the opening of the first to
the close Of the twelfth inning. Both
men pitched fine ball and were sup
ported as we'll as could be expected
Following is the line up:
