Hygienic Hints.

By forced or deep breathing
two objects are accomplished;
the stagnant or residual air in
remoter parts of the lungs is
expelled, and those distant
cells being inflated are saved
from collapse or obliteration as
a result of habitual disuse.
The oxygenation of the blood
is the most vital process in the
support of life, therefore an
unstinted supply of oxygen is
essential.
A good method easy and
practicable-is to stand in an
open window or door, blow as
if whistling till the breath is
all out, then raise the arms
and take the fresh air in
through the nostrils slowly
filling the lungs s-to be repeat
ed eight or ten times.
The open air treatment of
tuberculosis has given new i'm
petus to a consideration of
ventilation, uncOntaminated
atmosphere and healthful eli
mates; housetops, sky parlors
and roof gardens may become
popular again.

COLUMBUS TAKES
TWO GAMES
LOCAL TEAM TOOK FIRST TWO GAMES
FROM WATER VALLEY AND WERE
SHUT OUT IN LAST GAME
ATTENDANCE FAIRLY GOOD

The third game between Co
lumbus and Water Valley was
won by the visitors yesterday
by a large score.
The first game of the series
was played Friday morning and
those who were present were re-
minded of the league ball played
at Lake Park the past seasons.
A pitchers battle was in effect
during the entire nine innings,
between the batteries, Broadus
and Broadus for Columbus, and
David and Miller for the visitors.
The fourth inning gave two
scores to the locals, and after a
hard struggle the Water Valley
players succeeded in getting one
run in the seventh.
The second game of ball of
the Columbus Water Valley Sc
ries was won by Columbus by the
score of one to nothing.
Friday afternoon the game was
fast and both teams played good
ball. 1t was a pitchers battle
between Swanson of Columbus,
and Peaster of Water Valley, an
ex-Cotton States Lacquer.
Swanson had the best of the ar
gument at the finish, he giving
up only one scratch hit, while
four clean hits were chalked up
against Peaster. Colum bu S
made the only run of the game
in the, first inning on a walk, a
hit to left field and a wild throw
by the Water Valley first sacker.
Water Valley started in this in
ming as if they would tie the
score, but all chances were
''nipped in the bud," by a de-
cisiOn of the umpire. The Co
lumbus team played an errorless
game and showed up well.
A running catch of a high foul
fly by third baseman, Mcdowell,
and the pitching on both sides
was the main features of the
game.
Catcher Hopkins of the Water
Valley team had his hand in
jured by foul tip, in the Sc J.
enth inning and was forced to
retire from the game, Miller
taking his place behind the bat.
Manager Jake Marx of the Co
lumbus team, deserves credit for
getting such a classy bunch of
youngster together in so short a
time, from the way they are
playing the game now, they will
be a hard bunch to beat. The
game was called in the eighth
inning on account of rain.
Following is the score:

all the world.
But this letter is not TO describe the
war situation. There Is no talk of war
here now; and / have looked for il
among all classes of the people. The
Japanese are the friends Of the United
States and they are not ashamed to say
SO. In the words OF Baron Goto, one
of The emperOr's cabinet, who talked
to me recently, You MAJ go from the
top Of h Holkaido to the bottom Of
Formosa. and ask at the door Of every
Japanese home, rich and poor, and you
will not hear one word against the
United States This feeling was
amply shown in the welcome which
was given our fleet last October.
The Wealth Of Japan.
One thousand million dollars! 1T
seems a big pile for. one people to
owe. 1t means a Lot. Of money, but
there are other nations who owe moro
and prosper. The debt Of France is
five times as great; that OF Russia is
S 1000, 600, 900, and Germany, includ
ing the empire n states, owe almost
as much. Little Italy has a debt Of
two thousand seven hundred millions,
and as for ourselves, we owe two and
a half billions and are paying intereSt
on eight hundred and fifty millions. 81
a country is all right many think a
national debt a national blessing. /
am in doubt, however, whether SO bis
a debt blesses Japan.
The question Of a debt depends on
the security. What has Japan got back
Of her obligations? q she meet the
interest charges when due. and will
she eventually redeem her indebted
ness?
Let us tack a look at the country
and see. Japan, all told, is a little
bigger than California Four-fifths
of it is made uD OF volcanic noun
tains, but the remainder, including a
territory perhaps as large as Indiana.
