BASEBALL SIGNS.


Their importance 10 Mucn dr9Mtor
Than Their Number.
Among the players we do not use ths
word signal" With us it is Sign"
There are not as many signs" used on
ball club as the public would believe.
OF course the catcher must sign" the
pitcher for every ball that he throws.
That Is to prevent confusion or, as we
say, to keep from crossing each
other" The catcher has a sign for a
curve ball, fast ball and slow one.
To ball players all curve balls. such
as the drop and the outcurve. are call
ed "a curve" The catcher gives the
same sign for any one Of them. We
do not call a ball that jumps I'm"
curve. Ball players do not recognize
the incurve. That is called fast ball.
Any ball thrown by a right handed
pitcher with sufficient speed win jump
inward to slight degree. The out
curve and drop are unnatural curves.
and the ball must be spun In an I'M
natural manner to get that peculiar
'break."
The only other "sign" Of Importance
is the one the batter gives to the run
ner when he intends to hit the ball. II
he wants the runner to start as he
swings tthe hit and run play he gives
him a certain sign. There are any
number of signs used for this play.
Sometimes the batter gives 1t by rub
bing his hand over the small end Of
the bat Again, he may give 1t by
knocking the dust from his shoes with
the big end Of the bat-John ]. Nc

chanued His Mind.

When Representative Brown was
practicing law at Newton he fell out
with the district judge over some trivi
al matter One day the court wanted
him as a witness in case and SEM
the sheriff after him.
Just tell the judge to go to -
said Brown when the sheriff told him
to come to court
'All right" said the sheriff.
The latter wheeled around and start
ed toward the courthouse. Brown
turned and looked ut him. The Longer
he looked the more convinced was b,
he had made a mistake. So he started
after the sheriff. But the sheriff was
too fast for him and reached the court
room unmolested
May 1t please the court" said the
sheriff. "Mr Brown told me to tel
the court to go to -"
Just then Brown rushed through thu
door to the courtroom, and before any
thing could be said or done by tin
Judge Brown remarked:
May 1t please your honor. have
changed my mind You needn't go
I'll testify"
The incident caused so much merri
ment that the staid old judge forgot
the Insult and ordered Brown to th'
witness stand to testify.-Kansas Cit

edy Brings Back Color to Gray
Hair and Makes It Grow.

How many old-fashioned remedies are
being used, which goes to show that it
is hard to improve some Of our grand
mothers old-time, tried remedies. For in
stance, for keeping the hair dark, soft and
glossy nothing equals our grandmothers'
''sage tea" Although, by the addition Of
sulphur and other ingredients, this old
fashioned brew has been made more eff
fective as a scalp tonic and color re-
storer.
Nowadays, when our hair comes out or
gets faded or gray, instead Of going to
the garden or garnet for herbs and
making the s'tea" ourselves, we simply
go to the nearest drug store and ask for
a bottle Of Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur
Hair Remedy.
Druggists are authorized to sell It
under guarantee that the money viii be
refunded Il it fails to do exactly as rep
resented.
This preparation Is offered to the
public at fifty cents bottle, and Is

The u. S. Government in its "Pure Food
Law" does not Endorse" or guarantee"
any preparation, as some manufacturers
in their advertisements would make it APP
pear. In the case of medicines the law pro-
vides that certain drugs shall be mentioned
on the labels, If they are ingredients Of
the preparations. Ely's Cream Balm, the
well-known family remedy for cold in the
head, hay fever and nasal catarrh, doesn't
contain single injurious drug, so the
makers have simply to print the fact that
it complies fully with all the requirements
of the law.

Most of our perfumes come from
flowers or are made in imitation Of the
scent of flowers. so that altar Of roses,
by common consent. ranks at the head
OF the list of perfumes Other prepa-
rations from roses. too, hold a high
place and have long been esteemed.
Rosewater is historic. When Saladin

Of Omar washed with it. But altar
Of oil Of roses is by far the most pre-
cious and the most priced Of all. An

statement is now confrmed-the testi-
mony complete. Instances like this are
numerous. They doubly prove the merit
of Doan's Kidney Pills. Can any Mount
Holly reader demand more convincing
proof? It's Mount Holly testimony-it
may be investigated.
Mrs. E. D. Thomas, 81 Main Street,
Mt. Holly, N. J., says: 81 had acute
pains in the small of my back and ply
sicians were unable TO help me. The
secretions from by kidneys bothered me
and had almost given up hope for
relief when Doan's Kidney Pills were
brought to my attention. Getting box

and they were very effective. My back
and kidneys were strengthened and my
pains and aches disappeared. (State.

CHEAP PERFUMES.
Made From Musk Supplied by Mar

Made From Musk Supplied by Many
Varieties of civet Cats.
Most women who indulge freely in
the use Of cheap perfumes do not
know of what they are compounded.
The principal ingredient of low priced
perfumes is musk. animal musk, which
Is obtained from several creatures.
The muskrat is probably the best
known of these, and few decades
ago the wives and sweethearts of men
who set traps around bitches and
ponds In the countryside carried proud
~ the bags OF musk obtained from this
source. As an article Of commerce the
musk supplied by several varieties of
civet cats is probably the best known
today. The odor is strong and sweet.
The strength Is the particularly no
ticeable feature and is the reason
why it Is the foundation of the per-
fumes. In the small mammal house
] at the geological gardens are two sizes
of civets, and any one with an inves
$igating turn Of mind may stand near
the cages and catch the musky odor.
The musk is used In the cheap per
fumes, as only little is needed to give
most lasting odor to an ounce of
perfumery, but the musk itself is not
cheap, and it is one of the duties OF
the attendant Of the mammal house to
collect It 1t Is then sold through reg
ular channels and Is one of the sources
Of revenue to the zoo. although a small
one.-Ph Philadelphia Record.
Two Tries.
The Rochester Post-Express tells Of
a youth who was about going out to
his first formal dinner party. His
mother said: Now, don't forget your
manners. James. Be sure to say some
thing complimentary when the food is
passed" He endeavored to do SO.
When butter was served he remarked
pleasantly, This Is pretty good but
ter, what there is of it." The remark
was not well received He saw that
he had made a mistake. and he endeav
ored to correct 1t by saying, "And
there's plenty Of 1t, such as 1t Is"
