Although the great spitball finger
was only joking when he made the re-
mark, Sweeney took it seriously, and
since then has been planning to exc
cute the seemingly impossible stunt.
Pm sure l can make the catch,
said Sweeney. The science of the play
is to Judge the ball. Once get my
hand on the ball | know | can hold to
it. | shall get one of the boys to drop
the balls, and it may take at least a
dozen before I shall try to grab one. I
will have to gauge the course they will
take before | make the attempt.
THE only trick in making such a
catch is to get under it properly If
one of them came down and hit me on
the head | guess I would never play
baseball again. But l have always
been pretty accurate in judging fly
balls. When the ban lands in the
glove I shall have my arms extended
cut straight from the shoulders, but
will let them drop with it. BY this
means | will be able to break a whole
lot of force.
Charley Street has told me that the
ball he caught from the Washington
monument must have weighed 200
pounds when it landed in his glove"

by local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There is only one way to cure deaf
ness, and that is by constitutional
remedies. Deafness is caused by an
infiamed condition of the Eustachian
Tube. When this tube is infamed you
have a rumbling sound or imperfect
hearing, and when it is entirely clos
ed, deafness is the result, and unless
this Inflammation can be taken out
and this tube restored to it's normal
condition, hearing will be destroyed
forever; nine cases out of ten are
caused by Catarrh, which is nothing
hut an infiamed condition of the mu-
cOus surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars
for any case of Deafness (caused by
catarrh) that cannot be cured by

Ornaments of Black and White Ivory

The very latest thing in couture oTn-
aments are bandeauX, coronets, combs,
and barettes made of black and white
ivory-white ivory that is trimmed
with black. These are not intended,
as might be supposed, for second
mourning. The fashion has come over
from Europe where black and white
has been perforce worn much of late
and like the black and white ribbon
garnitures on hats it is being taken up
enthusiastically by even young girls.
There are many shapes and sizes IN
the finer grade ivory ornaments. OF
the bandeauX, perhaps the most styI-
ish encircles the couture completely
and is about one inch and a quarter
wide and finished back and front with
a jet medallion. The remainder of the
band is white in an open pattern, faced
and trimmed with black. Similarly the
half bandeaux, cut in some cases in
quite elaborate patterns, show black
facings and trimmings, and the combs
have a front line Of black down the
teeth, which are far enough apart 10
show the white sides. There are huge
braid hairpins to match these

Thus President Taft summed up an

| ton by the senate of the Canadian
reciprocity agreement before a repre-
sentative audience of southern men
last night.
he occasion was a Banquet given by
| the New York Produ &c exchange to the
Interstate Cotton Seed Crushers' asso-
citation. The banquet hall resounded to
q roaring welcome for the president as
he entered the room.
In his address President Taft pointed
out to the southerners the advantages
which their section would derive from
the enactment of the agreement with
Canada but did not neglect to recur to
his main argument for the pending bill
on the broader lines of general interest.
There was no questioning the SYM
pathy of the majority of the auditors
with the presidents plea. From the
start every mention of the word "reci-
procity'' was greeted with cheers and
the president at times had difficulty in
proceeding. He voiced decided objec-
| tions to amending the agreement by
tacking on the farmers free list bill.
which course, he said, would drive
J a way from it's support enough votes to
