, preciate baseball. It is so simple a
game that it could be easily grasped-
The mere throwing of a ball has
been something known and taken up
by nations for ages, but when there
4 became a contest in connection with
it as was brought out by the intro
ductiOn of baseball, then rivalry re-
sulted-the instinct of battle for ath-

ones to whom all the credit belongs
of widening the scope of the game.

Baseball has been played in HonOlu-
III for over % years. It was intro
duced in the Sandwich islands by the
L S ship Nandalia which was after
wards wrecked in Samoa, and it was
through that start that the war de-
partment of the United States decided
to furnish every one of its ships with
baseball araphernalia-bases, bats,
masks, gloves and uniforms for its
players on the ships.
It has even gone so far now that
professional batteries are enlisted for
Uncle Sans warships, and games are
played by our blue jackets wherever
they have the opportunity, and the
fleet causes as much excitement as
the mastery at target shooting
Soldiers, too. Play Game.
Soldiers, as well as sailors, too, have
their battles of the green diamond, and
there is not a warship leaving our

than to merely play game between

Golf; Variations In Flight of the Ball
By &c Straight Drive ,

~ HERE is without doubt vast diff

Il ball in different countries and in
different parts of those countries,
writes W. H Horne in London. The
atmosphere in England is cOmparta-
lively heavy, especially so on the
courses near London. There are one
or two exceptions, where the links are
situated on high ground some hun
dreds of feet above sea level, and the
air On such courses is clearer and more
crisp, offering less resistance to the
flight OF a ball.
The ball, in its flight through the
air, collects 2 certain amount of damp
ness, even on the finest day, and this
gives the air something to adhere to.
Observe, for instance, a man shooting
with a rifle at a range, how he has to
vary his sights according to the clear
ness of density of the atmosphere. If
the air acts in this manner on a bullet,
which one might call a conica1 cylinder,
offering very little surface, what must
the action be on golf bah, with its
much larger surface. e., 5 1-4-in.

Why INCUBATOR CHICKS DIE
FLOWERS IN THE HOUSEHOLD
Snapshot Of Quiet Domestic Scene
When Rivals Fought for the
Control Of Mexico.

To make flowers last a week or
more, four things are necessary. First,
do not try to arrange them the mo-
ment you get them, but put them in a
pail of water for few hours, SO that
every stem will be under water up to
the flower. Second, cleanse the vase
thoroughly before putting in the flow
ers and change the water every day.
Third. the cooler you keep the flowers
the longer they will last. If you are
too busy in the morning to enjoy them
or have to go out for the afternoon, do
not leave them in the living room, for
they are not used to such tempera-
ture. Every night put the vase in a
cool place, or better still, plunge the
stems up to the flowers in pail of
water. Fourth, cut about a quarter of
an inch off each stem in the morning
1t is more trouble to do this under
water, but it pays. If you cut the
stems in the ordinary way air bubbles
get into the stems and impede the TAX
ing in of water.-Delineator.

Personality.

Personality is just ones centralized
experience of the world, and there is
no way of making it greater except by
making that experience greater and
more centralized; in other words, be-
ing a bigger, broader, better man or
woman. Every intellectual achieve
ment, every moral victory, every bit
of solid work, will leave personality
richer profounder, more delicate. In
fact, to cultivate it, the plan is don't
cultivate it. Let it alone and do your
duty and it will GROVE. B. An
