were whitewashed Incidentally they did all they could to rattle the big fel- low, who kept his head and just laughed at their efforts to hit the ball safely. If he had accepted some of the offers from professional clubs be- lieve he would have been as great a pitcher as our Matty. but he didn't need the money and went into the law and is a partner in a well known firm
 Do you notice the big, brawny fel- low standing just outside the press box? Don't know him? Then you prob ably never saw him play ball more than sixteen years ago! He was one of the greatest hitters in the prOfes- sion in those days A lefthander, he could hit the ball a mile, no matter how it was pitched to him. When men were on bases and he loOmed up at the plate with his big wagon tongue pitchers used to shake in their shoes
 He led the league more than once in the batting averages and always played first base He was the first player to hit the ball over the center field fence on the South End grounds in Boston, while in almost every city he had rec ords for the longest drives. He was one of those sluggers you read about, for there are few men in the game to- day who can show similar prowess.- New York Sun.

ARKANSAS, A REVERE.

The years have flown swiftly since the old Arkansaw Traveller days, and on the site of the ."squatter's" cabin there towers a college, and on the banks of the Thames ripe lawyers read the decisions rendered by the son of the boy who sat in the ashhopper, listening in wonder to old Faulkner s fiddle. One by one the d-timers, in dividualism underscored with a heavy stroke, have dropped out. giving place to cultivation and the art of linguistic skill, and with Dryden am constrained to believe that what we gained in skill we lost in strength"
 For romance. poetry and heroic char acters men in every age have turned to the past, but in Arkansas romance and characters were contemporaneous. The cotton field in bloom, the melancholy cypress, breeding sentinel over the dreamy waters of the bayou, the joy ous mOcking bird wOrshipping sun rise which he himself had "melodied, the song of negroes away off some where, chimes from the belfry Of happy souls; the quaint old planter, sitting on his veranda, humorous under a tdillflS Dul lp piSoNA oOs O Whats your hurry out there?

Do you see that dead ap- pIe tree the only remaining relic of an orchard away over wonder on the hill? Beneath its decaying boughs the old man sleeps. And do you hear those men laughing out there in that automobile? The grandson has just repeated one of the old fellows stories. The young man has returned from the state uni versfty.

Take Off The Fat
 Where # Shows

Most women suffer much humiliation because of great quantities of fat so located that, no matter how they dress, everybody sees that they are abnormal. This is the day of the slender figure and fat women are simply not tolerated either in business or social affairs. Women may not know it, but men when they see a fat woman pass them on the street or in public places make all manner of sympathetic remarks about her They do not mean to be unkind or to seem unmanly. hut it is natural for a man to dislike fat on woman. Where fat shows the most there is where it must be removed, and as quickly as possible. The seasons dresses seem to be made for the Tat woman's misery and the slender wom- ant delight They expose all the charms of the woman and her ugliness as well. Exercise and diet will not re- move fat This has been proved. The famous MarmOla prescription whlch has met with such phenomenal success and has so many of our society women as it's sponsors. is now being sold III tablet form to meet the demand of the uIIblic for this style of treatment. These little tablets go into your sys- tenn just like food. They stop the stomach and digestive apparatus from nroducing fat and reduce the fat upon the body at the rate of from F to 15 ounces a day. They are harmless and can be carried in your purse and taken even after you have indulged Tn hearty meal away from home. They are sold at all drug stores at 75 cents case, or if you prefer you may write the Marmola Company. 213 Farmer Building, Detroit, Mich.

PREPARING FOR BIG BUSINESS

The annual painting, renovation and rearranging of the Lamson business college is now about completed and the college is practically ready to begin its next years work The institution nev- CT closes, and has summer as well as winter classes, but the summer at
 tendance is of course much smaller than in the winter and the gradual but continuous growth of the institution has made annual expansion necessary. Last winter the college had more pu- pills than it could well care for; so many, in fact, that it stopped its ad- vertising for a time, but this year the encouragement of the rooms and the adding of another room seating forty pupils will enable the school to take care of about sixty more pupils than the year before. New books and filing cases have been placed in the business offices of the school and everything is in fine condition for the years work. The summer business this year has been double that of a year ago, and there has been so much doing that Professor LamsOn has been unable to take any vacation though the other teachers have had outings of greater or less extent and are ready to face a season of hard work.
