played and in that time four differ

home and after the first exclamation
of surprise and incredulity were over,
Buackarooes and each came in for

twirler, pitched three innings and
was forced to retire to the field
through illness. When he left the
box the score stood six to three in

out six men. Thompson replaced
him at the slab and lasted two in

runs were made by the home team.

which they have brought to light
There has been exhibited in Germany
building In which everything, from
the carpets on the floor to the curtains
III the windows and the papers on the
walls, was made of peat. The fibers o.
the remains OF the reeds and grasses OF
which peat is composed have, OF course,
their original physical and chemical
characters changed. and the ttbrOus
structure remains unframed. and the
fthers themselves are extremely dur

heat
1t Is stated that fabrics woven from
them are as tough as linen and that
they possess the warmth of wool. and
1t Is further claimed that there Is no
textile fabric that can not be woven
from these fibers. Blankets and 9TH

have been found to excel in warmth
and cleanliness when made Of peat
