THE REVOLVING TOOTHBRUSH
NOW

Life Is being made so easy by the
aid Of mechanical devices for saving
hand labor that after awhile we shall
all grow fat from Incidence. Now
comes a device to do away with the
irksome task of brushing the teeth.
The new toothbrush, instead OF a
broadened out end filed with bristles,
which must be polished across the
teeth with strenuous arm strokes,
is provided with a revolving brush
made Of an oriental fiber which ma
tives of the far eastern countries use
on the teeth. With this ingenious tool
one brushes the teeth as thoroughly
and easily as one marks out patterns

A. at J:3O O'Clock.
The new Walford team made splendid
showing for it's second game in the league
yesterday afternoon, when it completely
overshadowed the Herald nine to the tune
throughout and had it not been for Rawl-
ings' good work, who relieved Belts in
the last of the first round the score
would have been much more One-sided.
Pitcher Frostick. for the Walford bunch,

well in hand throughout the game. He

scattered hits, besides showing up we'll

brought in Boyd and Thayer.

six hits and seven taliies.

In one of the most thrilling games OF
the season the Commissioners defeated
Ellipse yesterday afternoon. and incident
ally tied them for first honors in the
race for the pennant. Score 3 to =
About the largest crowd of the season
was present and the enthusiasm was kept
at fever heat at all times by the close
ness of the score. The teams seemed to
have an equal following. for whenever
either team came to bat the entire crowd
seemed to let loose, and the shouting
was deafening.
The winners did all of their scoring in
one inning, the lucky seventh Here is
how they won the game and tied up the
race. After one was out Hessler singled
to left; Moriarity and Woodward follow
ed in succession with singles, filling the
bases. Thomas hit to Drummer. who
threw to the plate and forced Hessler
but on the throw down to first In an ef-
fort to complete a double play. Moriarity
scored from third. This left Thomas and
Woodward on the bases, when Byrd, the
pitcher, won his own game by slammine
one to deep center for single, scoring
the latter two players.
In the eighth the Laborites tried their
best to get a runner across. but Were
unsuccessful. Kinney received a pass
and stole second and third. but died
there, as there was one down and the
next two batsmen were easy picking.
The first three trips up for Charlie
Moran resulted in fine singles, but the
last time up, when hit was most needed
he was not there with the goods. But, OF
course, We can't expect a man to bingle
every time up. His first hit scored the
first tally for the Laborites.
Had the LabOrites won yesterday
game they would have about had tn.
pennant we'll in hand, but, as they los.
the games to be played from now on vii
surely be watched with the greatest o.
interest, as the losing of game by
either team will almost put them out o.
the race for the leading hOnOrs.
