Pennsylvania Nine
Gets Good Start

PHILADELPHIA. March 25.-Judging
from the form shown by Pennsylvania 8
baseball team in their opening game
at Annapolis Saturday, and from the
fact that Coach Thomas has several
men whom he has not yet trotted out
the Red and Blue should have one of
the most successful seasons of recent
years.
The start made this season was not
any more auspiciOus than last year,
but this season the team seems to be
better drilled than last year. Coach
Thomas has some players on whom he
can depend absolutely, so that there
will be no need of experimenting and
guessing. Moreover he will have nine
men who can hit, which is something
that Penn did not have last year.

Men to Abor Country.
Natives Occupy Slopes Of HImaIayan

LOndon.-The various sects COM
prising the Abor tribe may be said to
occupy the slopes of the Himalayan
range in the vicinity of the Dibong
and Dihang rivers, tributaries of the
great Brahmaputra as it debouches
from the watershed which divides our
territory in Assam from the regions
Of Tibet. says the Westminster Ga
zette. Although Abors may at times
be seen In the bazars of Sadiya our
advanced frontier post, no white man
has as yet penetrated into the Abor
country, the policy Of the government
Of India being the rigid exclusion Of
one and all from this mo mans land"
except the lawful owners. There are
kindred tribes, viz, the Mishmi Abors
to the east and the Daphia AbOrs to
the west, which are more or less ct
a peaceful character; but the Dor
Abors are Of a very different nature.
The Daphla Abors are of somewhat
small stature, but are very 1.-THE and
active, with very symmetrically
shaped limbs. They are very scantily
clad.
The Abor villages are built entirely
Of bamboo, and this most useful plant
Is also brought into use as a mean
Of protection. Pieces Of solid (male)
bamboo are hardened to almost the
density Of steel by being placed in
hot ashes; they are then sharpened at
one end and stuck into the ground at
an angle so as to wound the foot Of
an enemy daring to approach. These
are called panjees, and are placed
by thousands all round the village and
are generally concealed under leaves.
These panjees are so strong and
sharp that they will easily penetrate
a soft boot or gaiter.
The narrow defiles or gorges lead
ing to the villages are also guarded
by huge powders Of stone, which are
so placed that they can be dropped on
the enemy at any moment as he ad-
vances.
The Abors are chiefly armed with
bows and poisoned arrows (but now

The breath Of England was on his

and fragrant. His cheeks grew red,
his ayes shone like stars, and he was
content with his youth and his lot.
When they stopped at Castelen, the
property belonging to Stainer Court,
he felt something of proprietorship

The "change Of Life is q most
critical period in a woman's ex-
istence, and the anxiety felt by
women as it draws near Is not
without reason.
When her system is in q de-
ranged condition, she may be
p~redisposed to apoplexy, or con-
gestion of some organ. At this
time, also, cancers and tumors
are more liable to form and begin
their destructive work.
Such warning symptoms as
sense Of suffocation, hot flashes,
headaches, backaches, dread Of
impending evil, timidity, sounds
in the ears, palpitation Of the
heart, sparks before the eyes,
Irregularities, constipation, vari-
able appetite, weakness and
inquietude, and dizziness, are
promptly needed by Intelligent
women who are approaching the
period in life when woman's
great change may be expected.
These symptoms are calls from
nature for help. The nerves are
crying out for assistance and the
cry should be needed in time.
