Are You a Fan?

For six months life has been moth
ing but weary grind for thousands
of men of the United States. In the
coming six months, not one will re
linquish his hold on life without a
stiff fight. Why? Because the 1912
baseball season starts today and now
life is worth living.
1t is peculiar how baseball has
such hold on the American public.
The game is not played by it's most
enthusiastic admirers for they are
only allowed to sit on a bench and
voiciferate The men in the field are
seldom from the home town but are
gathered far and wide and their in
terest is financial at it's base. The
whole system is founded on the mon
ey power, and yet the game has
stronger hold on the American peo-
pie than any other ever known.
The sporting sheet will be the
most popular page in every daily for
weeks to come and will be read with
e:agerness by thousands of fans.
When the home team is away, they
will proudly acclaim it's conQuests or
bravely endure it's defeats, but when
it comes home, the boys will all be
there. Anyway, the best part is that
it gets thousands of business men out
in the open for few hours day Civ
ing them lung exercise and much
needed fresh air.

Clever Rirds.

Record has recently been made Of q
canary bird that displays almost hu.
man intelligence. The bird in ques.
ton acts as guard over a sleeping
child, singing shrilly at any sign OF
danger. The bird is allowed the free
dom Of the house and never shows
any desire to escape into the free air.
At night it will perch itself on the
baby's cradle and such seems to be
its liking for the child that II anyone
approaches to disturb it's slumber, 1t
shows spirited signs of it's displeasure.
A man in London prizes q parrot
for it's intelligence. The bird is as

Great Plaque of London.

- Great Plague Of London.
Medical authorities agree that the
epidemic which prevailed in London
In 1865 was what we now call bu.
bonic plague. It is well known that
this "Black Death" was prevalent in
various parts of the world in ancient
times. The outbreaks were peculiarly
violent then by reason of the condi.
lions of poverty and the almost total
absence Of sanitation. It was the an.
cient medical writer's who gave it the
name Of the plague. ..@.
The mortality in London in 1866
was appalling. Thousands were swept
away by the dread malady, and there
was a great exodus from the stricken
city. Some of the medical authorities
thought it had been brought into Lon.
don In bales of merchandise coming
from Holland, which originally came
from the Levant; others contended
that it was brought in by Dutch pris.
oners Of war.
