But the barber doubted his custo-

evening on his way from Chicago To

The conversation had switched to
baseball in one of the downtown bar

of managers and players. umpires and

tonsorial artists were declaiming.
THE game can't be on the square

chair as he applied the lather to the
sunburnt face of an athletic chap who
had settled in his chair.
You've got to show me that the
game isn't frame-up from beginning
to end, and that the league officials
aren't conspiring against the Cubs,
continued the lather artist.

trying to dodge the lather dauber long

the ground can be raked or narrowed
easily. When transplanting is to be
done, first wet the ground thoroughly.
Then it will be possible to take up
good ball Of earth with the plant, and
the roots will not suffer.
Corn and melons should not be cult
waited deeply. The roots grow near the
surface, and merely stirring the soil
sufficiently to create a dust mulch Is
all the plants require.
1t is important to have the garden
tools sharp. Some people never think
of sharpening the blade of hoe. but
it is altogether worth while.
Squashes keep best if allowed to re-
main on the vines as long as possible
before the season Of hard frosts. Then
they get thoroughly ripened and the
shell we'll hardened.

but the gardener is afraid to cultivate.
A few radish seeds sown with the 9TH
ers will obviate this difficulty by mark
ing the rows within a few days.
Some gardeners greatly improve
their lettuce, Swiss chard and spinach
by growing them under a canopy Of
cheesecloth held about five feet above
the ground by stakes or a light frame.
An excellent way to economic labor
in watering plants is to sink a tomato
can into the ground at the base Of
each plant. having first punched the
bottom full of holes. The water pour
ed into the can viii reach the roots
directly and not be wasted Weak
manure water may be given this way
to excellent advantage if the plants
need feeding.
Generally speaking. the depth to
plant should be four times the diam
eter Of the seeds.

SUSPENSION BRIDGES.
They Were Common In Peru In the
Days Of the lncas.

They Were Common In Peru In the
Days Of the Incas.
Suspension bridges. some of them Of
considerable length. were common in
Peru in the days of the lncas. They
were formed of cables of twisted osiers
passed over wooden supports and
stretched from bank to bank. then
bound together with smaller ropes and
covered with bamboo. The road from
Cuzco to Quito is still noted for frail
bridges of this sort, which are in con-
slant use and span deep cbasms.
The Chinese also. according to
Kircher. have for centuries been famil-
far with the suspension" theory and
have constructed chain bridges in which
the weight of the roadway is support
ed by the tension of the chains.
The first iron suspension bridge in
Europe was built over the Tees. near
Middleton. in 1741. for the use of min
ers Two chains were stretched in a
straight line. steadied by ties from the
banks below. and the roadway for foot
passengers was supported by the
chains.
The modern suspension system prac-
tically dates from 1916. when bridges,
both over 100 feet ri length. were sue
cessfully completed at Gafashieis and
Peebles.-London Standard.

A curious story is told as to how the

His principal income was derived from
a snuffbox. And this was the way Of
it: The snuffbox was given to the au-
thor of La Prison d'Edinbourgh" by
Baron James de Rothschild as a token
of esteem. Carafa sold it twenty-four
hours later for Is napoleons to the
same Jeweler from whom it had been
bought. This became known to Roth

DAYTON, o., Aug. s2.-After the
perfection of an organization, the
Lutheran Joint Synod, in session here,
today devoted its attention TO a con-
sideration of home and foreign mis-
sions. In conformity with a rule
adopted by the preliminary commit
tee on organization and program, no
delegate was permitted to speak long
er than five minutes on the same sub
ject.
The report of the Rev. Paul +. Helm.
home mission executive. showed that
the work had been conducted in the
last two years without mourning dol
lar of debt. Nineteen fields became
self supporting. The board ia support
ing 103 missionaries in the United
States and Canada. The most distress
ing need of the board. the executive
reported. is the lack OF missionaries
to occupy strategic fields.
The report of the board on colored
missions showed that this work has
made the most encouraging progress
in the last twenty years.
The ACCESSIBILITY of buying a mis-
sion post in India of the Hermanns-
burg Mission society of Germany. pro-
voked a lengthy discussion. The mo-
neys collected in the joint synod for
many years have gone into the treas
ury of the German society. In the last
year a we'll defined movement among
the laity demanded that the synod
occupy its own foreign mission work.
Negotiations TO purchase a field from
the Hermannsburg society have not
been concluded as yet. Several dele
gates believed the synod should begin
foreign mission work nearer home,
and Peru was cited as a fruitful field.
Delegates from the Pacific coast press
ed the claims of mission work among
the orientals in that section.
Friday the synod will discuss its
! educational institutions. Saturday is
devoted to nominations and varia. The
various treasures and elemosynary in
situations are scheduled for considera-

The Dead Sea.

Many persons imagine that the Dead
sea in Syria is nothing but sea water
Of extreme saltiuess, but that is a mis-
take. The name was given to the great
salt lake because nothing could live in
its waters. Owing to the density Of the
water fish cannot sink in it. and they
could not live If they did, as some Of
the salts are powerful antiseptics.
which means that they are fatal to any
form of life. There is about 3 per cent
of chloride of lime In the Dead sea.
About half the salt in the Dead sea Is
chloride of magnesium. whereas near
ly all the salt in the ocean is just COM
