Charles w. Murphy, the effervescent
leader Of the Chicago Cubs, comes out
fiat-footed with the following statement:
Il will bet 5000 that not a National
League or American League player on the
reserve list Will play more than one game
in the Federal League next season."
According to Murphy, an injunction
could be used to prevent major leaguers
from joining the so-called outlaws. This
is what Murphy says:
THE big league clubs pay their play
ers IS per cent of their salaries for play
ing, and Is per cent for being on the re-
serve list. II the player jumps to the
outlaw league an Injunction may be OBJ
tained preventing him from playing ball
The jumping TO the Federal League also
would mean the automatic cutting on OF
his salary and placing himself on the big
league black list, so-called."

in Philadelphia has been signed by Presi-
dent Tener, of the National League to act

Your Feet.

With the return of warm
weather many will be heartily
glad to indulge freely once more
in long tramps. and it is certain
that no more health-giving exer-
else is to be had. But some peo-
pie find that discontinuance has
made their feet tender. while
boots which are quite new and
stiff, or do not fit properly, are
often productive of soreness and
blisters on the heels.
If the heel is only red and
painful, the best thing is to COW
err it with a piece of soap plaster,
says one who knows" but if a
blister has formed and broken,
it must be thoroughly washed in
warm water to remove any dirt
or dust. Next lay over it a clean
rag spread with vaseline, and
rest the foot. The stocking
should not be allowed to touch
any sore spot.
The seasoned pedestrian knows
that he rms far less risk of bis
tered feet if he wears thick
stockings" continued the writer,
land if the foot part of these is
we'll soaped inside. A further
precaution is to rub the feet well
with methylated spirit before
starting on a long tramp. To
enjoy walking and gain the ut
most benefit from the exercise
care should be taken to get we'll
fitted boots with stout soles."

American Emigration.

Speaker Clark is or the opinion
that as much attention should be
given by Congress to emigration
as to immigration. Hehas point
ed out that a weekly average of
l, 500 American farmers cross
in:o Canada carrying with them
$500, 900 in cash and S150,000 of
personal property. Mr.. Clark
holds that such loss of men and
property calls for legislation that
will tend to keep both in this
country. Speaker Clark is
right. Legislation that will keep
them here is not very difficult of
enactment. There should be
more liberal homestead laws,
Government r e cl a m a t ion of
lands through irrigation, and
every legal assistance to home
building and home making com.
patible with good public policy.
In short, there should be induce
ments for men to remain in this
country superior to any that can
be offered by any other country,
especially an American emigra-
ton consists of the best manhood
that the country possesses.
An American farmer born and
bred on American soil is worth
more to the country than ten i'm
migrants. The citizenship of
the former is a fixed quantity.
That of the latter must be devel
oped at great expense. The pa
triotism of the former is unques-
toned. That of the latter is
problematical until he shall have
developed and demonstrated his
citizenship. And this without
disparaging IN the least immi-
grant population.

Chinese Woman Doctor.

DIR. Ii Bi Gu is a young Chi
nese woman doctor who received
her medical education in our
country, coming here as a young
girl to study medicine. She is
now in charge of hospital at
Ngu Cheng. While Westward
bound. on train out of Chicago,
the train struck a lahorer, injur-
ing him severely. The man was
brought aboard the train, and
when an appeal for a doctor was
made, DR.. Ii Bi Gu offered her
services. Then was seen the
strange combination of a Chinese
Christian woman doctor caring
for an injured Slav in an Amer
lean baggage car. We are told
that DR.. Ii Bi Gu is giving much
of her time to educating district
nurses so that they can go into
the homes of Chinese mothers
and help them in the care of
their sick children.

Trade at Home.

Get in touch with your home
merchant and all that pertains
to the home.
First. give him a fair trial, to
see if he is honest and wishes to
do as he would be done by. If
so patronize him as much as pos
sible and is convenient, thereby
giving him a chance to study
your needs in so many various
ways. In handling your produce
to the best possible advantage,
you would not think of sending
your butter, chickens, eggs etc.,
off to some mail order house or
of asking them to credit you for
any period of time. Your home
merchant wants to be neighborly
to you in visiting you socially in
your homes, churches anC
schools. He helps to bear the
burden of the taxes in your com
munity, county and State. SC
why send our hard earned money
off to some d slant city to helE
enrich those you may never know
or see or have any interest ir
financially. They are only out
for the money there is in it.
Stop, count the postage, freight
and time and see what has beer

Again the home merchant we
are bound to admit, is to a grea1
extent very necessary to a con

kinds of produce to exchange
for all the little necessities Of

Fire Losses.

That a very large part of the
fire losses in America have been
due to an arson conspiracy has
been made clear. Into this con-
spiracy certain solicitors have
entered, with the result that I'M
insured property has been i'm
perilled, the insurance compan-
les have been robbed and the in
surance business largely dis
credited.
The fire commissioner of New
York State reports that at least
four million dollars have been
saved by these exposures, these
arrests, trials and convictions,
and this is encouragement enough
to continue these proceedings
The fire loss in the United
States is twice what it ought to
be. Insurance in itself begets
carelessness and indifference at
times; but beyond all this stands
this criminal history. The COM
panies n d the government
should unite in an effort to Grad
icate this evil, break up this
combination, prevent this ebso-
lutte waste of a nations wealth.
The time has come when the
United States must consider all
sources of waste and prevent the
greater part of it. We must
husband our resources. We
must stimulate our productive
capacity. and at the same time
we must stop the leaks, check
| the waste due to fire loss, due to
railroad accidents, due to gov
ornamental extravaganza, due to
mismanagement of great eorpor-
atoms, including the railroads,
Our agricultural production is
wildly estimated at ten billions.
A large part of the ten billions is
consumed in the production and
no allowance made for that ex-
pense. We have over estimated
our -producing.gcapacity.
We have underestimate tn e
wastefulness of the American
people.
Senator Aldrich has said that
the government waste was
million a day. Mr.. Brandies has
declared-and has gone far to
prove-that the railroads waste
a million a day. The fire loss
has reached nearly q million a
day, and one-half of it ais pre-
ventable. If we are ever t . be-
come rich-meaning bysssthat it
the wealth of the United States
is ever to be great enough to en-
able all men to live in something
like comfort-w must reach
that condition through industry
and frugality; we cannot reach
it through the distribution of
what wealth remains.-Louisville

The relationship between this line of
HohenZollerns and the line of which
the kaiser is the head is very remote,
and it is necessary to go back hun
dreds of yNars to trace it. The Ho-
henzollerns of Suabit and the Prus-
sian branch of the family have not in
termarried to any reat extent, most Of
the Suabian Hohenzollern alliances
having been with the Spanish and
French nobility and royalty.
Manuel was born November Is,
1889. and hence is year and a half
older than his bride. While he was
sitting on the throne Of Portugal 1t was
believed he would marry an English
girl. In the fall Of 1909, on trip to
England, it was expected he would
ask for the hand of Princess Patricia
of Connaught or of Alexandra, the
present Duchess of Fife, who, will be
married to Prince Arthur Of Con-
paught in October There was also a
rumor of the possibility of his mar
riage to the daughter Of the kaiser,
who recently married the heir of the
Duke of Cumberland.
The castle at Sigmaringen, the
home of the bride and scene of the
wedding ceremony today, was granted
to the senior branch of the Hohenzo1
lerns by Emperor Charles v in 1884
1t had previously belonged to to the
De Montford and sWerdenberg fami-
lies, both of which became extinct.
Manuel was married on Portuguese
soil, for sack of earth had been sent
from Lisbon for him to stand on dur
ing the ceremony.
