turned the tide and at his feet lay the
body Of Dumot Dueraw.
As he walked from the arena and
faced Silver Fawn, never in my life
had | seen such Transformation.
Darkness had left her face; her eyes
shone; her entire being had bright
ened, as the clouds roll back to the
horizon and leave the clear heavens.
Chetoka and Silver Fawn walked
on around the river bank to the bluffs.
It was growing late. The sun had
sunk behind the western hill and the
chill foretold the approach of win
ter.
As l had been among the Indians
great deal with the missionaries, l

the devils.

ing tired, sat down on an over-hang-
ing rock, from which could see all
over the country. Below, to the
right, was the old counterfeiters'
cave, and about two hundred feet
farther down, was the river. Di-
rectly beneath me were numerous
walls, which were called caches, in
which the Indians stored food and in
later years used them as a fortress to
stand in and fight the enemy.

FARM BURROWS.
Farmer and St0ckman,

The heavy auto requires more gas
oline to propel it and larger tires to
carry it, both of which cost money,
but the heavier car has smoother ac-
ton and rides easier. It is all right
for the man who can afford il, but a
Jonah" to the man who cannot.
| 1never like the prospect of long
husking job ahead, but when corn is
worth more than fifty cents a bushel
husking doesn't seem half so hard.
Nevertheless, when the last load is in
the crib and snow storm seems to be
brewing, there is cause for rejoicing.
Once upon time, when a young
man, l husked corn for man who
never would let the sun 60 down with
down row" in the field. II was his
whim that the time to pick up the
"down row" was right after making
| it.
We are enjoying a siege of good,
deep, sticky mud of the real honest
quality without complaining. Perhaps
it isn't the mud, but the things that
come with it that we enjoy.
There are still some road supervis-
ors that labor under the delusion that
they are building roads when they
pile a miscellaneous assortment of
sods, weeds and other trash into the
place where the grade should be and
leave the travelling public to find their
way along the sides somewhere be-
tween the fences.
Hay was good crop this year and
conditions were almost perfection put
ting corn in the shock or the silo.
Those who are short of coarse feed
for their stock next year should not
make any excuses, just dig into their
pockets and hand over the price asked
by their more provident neiehbor who
can see little the other side of to-
day.
One way to make the work of filling
the silo little easier would be to
have the conveyor come down the CEN
ter of the silo instead of just inside of
the wall. In this way of carrying the
conveyor would be a snap instead of
a job.
Potatoes and apples keep best to
be stored in some dry outbuilding as
long as the weather makes outside
storage safe. Grief be to him who
leaves them one day too long.
One seldom sees a wooden pump in

9njp, Snap, Snorem.


This game is played by any number
with a full pack of cards. The play
ers. having placed before them five
counters as stock" the cards are
dealt in the usual way. The object
Of the game consists in playing a card
Of equal value with that of the next
player. This ships you. II the third
player has a card of like value you
are snapped, and then If a fourth card
be played by the following player you
are ~snored-thus. say A plays q knave
and B likewise plays a knave, A Is
shipped and places one counter in the
pool. II G also has a knave B Is snap
ped and pays two in the pool. and If
D has the other knave G is snored and
pays in three. The fourth, of course.
is safe, because all the four knaves
are now played. No person may play
out Of his turn. but every one must
snip or snap when it is In his power.
When any player has paid into the
pool his Eve counters he retires from
the game, and the pool becomes the
property Of the one whose hand holds
out longest. The cards r sometimes
dealt three or four times before the
game is decided. The deal is taken In
rotation.

a dog which was very much attached
to him. When he was compelled to

abroad the clergyman took his devoted
canine companion to the house Of his

about two years. Then the long alb.
sent owner returned and. arriving at

This Is a play that will please the
children. Arrange chairs, one for each
player, in a semicircle before a large
blackboard. II twenty are present
give each one a card with a number
on it. numbering them from one to
twenty. with a tiny pencil attached to
each card. The name Of the holder Is
written on the back. Pass arounds slips
Of paper folded and have each n
promise not to tell what is written on
his slips. The person in charge will
then call a number, and each child
must look to see what number is on
the slip he has received.
For instance, II two is called the

board q picture Of the animal whose

cards the number called and writing
opposite to it what they think the ami
NAL is which is being drawn.
After each person has been called
and drawn a picture the correct list Is
read out, the children marking their
cards with the ones they have correct.
The boy or girl who has the greatest
number correct will receive a prize.
The one guessing the fewest must have
a prize for consolation. A Noah's ark

BROKE HORSE OF BAD HABIT
Bag of Sand, Something Like "Punch.
ing Bag" Did the Business
Quite Simply.

Noah Spears, a Bay Shore farmer,
has discovered way to break a horse
of kicking, according to Milford let
ter to the Wilmington (Del) News.
Spears tells the following story: Il
filled stout gunny sack with sand and
suspended it from the ceiling in the
rear of the stall by rope in such a
position behind the horse that it's
heels could have good play upon it.
This large pendulum, needing only a
strong power to start it, would swing
with clocklike precision as soon as
the horse began to play it's acrobatio
stunts upon it. At the first kick the
bag swung away, only to return with
more force, giving the animal much
more than it had sent. This unexpect-
ed return on the part of the bag caused
the horse to kick harder, but each time
the bag returned harder and paid the
animal with interest Finally the
horse, realizing that further kicking
would be fruitless, stopped kicking.
The bag was allowed to hang in the
same position for an entire week, but
no more use for it was seem

and to pitch it over the plate between
the batter's knees and shoulders when
necessary. Control is the pitchers 8
principal stock in trade, as a pitcher
who can throw the ball near where
he wants it to go needs few curves
and not much speed
Crab-A grabbed player, Crouch" Z"
The verb to crab means to show a
Quarrelsome or complaining spirit.
Many of the worst "crabs" in base
ball are the pleasantest and most ge-
NAL when off the field, their grabbed
ness evidently being the result of the
nervous strain Of playing.
Crash-Verb used in baseball, not to
signify single sound, but series
of hard hits. A team starts crash
ing when three or four batters in
succession make hits.
Crowd (Verb)-To stand close to
the home plate when batting, the pur-
pose being to hamper the pitcher and
sometimes to force him to hit the
batter. The team that crowds" per-
sistently is a hard team to beat, as
in many cases batters will be hit, and
many times pitchers, over anxious
through fear of hitting them, will pitch
outside the plate and give them bases
on balls.
Curve-In professional baseball the
only curve spoken of as such is the
fast breaking ball, pitched overland,
that darts down and out from a right
handed batter. All other curves are
qualified as sidearm, out, barrel hook,
slow, drop. No one speaks of an in
curve among major leaguers. See
Putting Something on 1t, and The
Jump.
Dirt Gilt the) Slide-Usually heard
in connection with an order to a play
er. Managers always reprove play
ers who stop standing up" and or
der them to 'hit the dirt" partly be-
cause standing up is a risky way of 60
Ing into a base. and partly because
so many players are injured by not
sliding.
Double-A two base hit. or 1.-TWO
Dagger"
Double Playa play in which two
runners are retired or put out, before
| the ball ceases to move, or in one
| continuous play. The commonest
double play is from the short stop to
the second baseman to the first base
man.
Double Steal-A steal Of bases by
two runners simultaneously. The steal
when made with runners on first and
second is seldom called double
steal as the runner on second steals
third and the other runner merely
trails" The double steal, as meant
by the expression, is made with run
ners on first and third The runner
starts from first and, as the catcher
throws to catch him, the runner on
third trier to score before the ball
can be returned to the catcher. The
| play is used chiefly when two are out
and the chance of scoring in any other
way is small.
