The bleak and dreary days have com
and bring the story near,
or how we might have won the rae,
and not brought up the rear.
As each enthralling tale unfolds ths
story glows anew,
or how the boys failed in the pinch
or how they slipped down inch by
inch;
And every single mothers son
Is telling how we mighthayewon.
The pitchers started with a whoop, the
batting crew was there.
But then approached the dark'nine
days of deep and, dull despair.
AS each enthralling tale unfolds the
story glows anew,
OF how the pitchers arms went lame
OF how the batters slumped and
tamed
And every single mothers son
Is telling how we mighthavewon.
Sad tale be these of blasted hopes and
plans that went astray,
But breaking in upon the gloom there
comes shining ray.
As each enthralling tale unfolds the
story glows anew,
OF how a phenom has been found,
OF how next year will roll around;
And bring to every mothers son
The punch that kills the Nightmare

Noted Women Whose Birthday Is Yours
BIZ MARY MARSHALL.

Sara CoIeridge and Anne Judson
Copyrighted. 1918.

Sara Coleridge, the daughter of the
poet, Samuel Coleridge, was described
by her friends sixty years ago at the
time of her death as IAN almost per-
feet woman" She had masculine
strength of intellect, combined with
feminine grace and charm, an even,
agreeable disposition, combined with
vivacity and spirit. Yet she was of
delicate constitution, so that it was
really marvel that she lived to be
fifty, as she did. Fifty years ago,
when physical health was not cult
waited by women so persistently as 1t
is today, a semi-invalid could still be
a. perfect woman. Our ideas of femi-
nine perfection have changed greatly
since then Sara's claim to celebrity
was due not only to the fact that
she was the daughter of poet, but
that she wrote poetry and translated
into an English style that was greatly
admired.
Ann Hasseltine, who was born in
Bradford, Mass. in 1888, was first of
all the first American foreign mis-
sionary among women. Her other
claim to distinction lay in the fact
that she was the heroic wife of An
donorim Judson, the great missionary
to India. She met him when he was
still In the theological seminary at
Andover, Mass, and they were mar
ried when the fervor of their religious
ambition was still fresh and I'M
dimmed Together they went to In
dia. and it was only because of ILL
health that Mrs. Judson was at
length forced to come home. With
her health restored she returned to
her husband in few years. Shortly

Bulgaria is being libeled; a black
picture of her has been presented to
the world, which has aroused the in
dignation of all those who truly know
the Bulgarians." Thus Miss Olga
Terzieff, whose home is in Samkow,
Bulgaria, defended her country
against charges of atrocities in a
speech at Manchester College, st.
Paul.
Miss Terzieff is taking a two-year
course at Manchester preparing to re-
turn to her people as missionary
Her brother was one Of the officers
of the Bulgarian army and acquitted
himself creditably in the Lap cam
paign.
Coming direct from the scene of
the recent Bulgarian war, Miss Ter
zieff has a flrst-hand knowledge of
existing conditions, and in her recent
speech ably defends her country.
"As much as has been written in
the American newspapers and maya
zines about the Bulgarian war, 1t
has all been from a foreigners point
of view. The reports have come
through Greek and Servian sources.
They were written at time when all
intercourse In Bulgaria was stopped;
at a time when it neither could an
swer or deny the charges made.
at Is not improbable that some of
them are true, but most Of the mas
sacres and incendiaries were COM
nitted not by the regular army, but
by regiments composed almost entire
ly of Macedonian volunteers, who
were independent largely Of the Bull
garian government and army centres.
Racial hatred and vengeance toward
Greeks and Turks, to whom they had
to give up their towns and villages,
was the main cause But the worst
outrages were perpetrated by the
Greeks and Servians, who were the
main cause of the second ferocious
war.

after this, In 1923. her husband was
seized by the hostile Hindoos and
sent to death prison" while she was
kept prisoner at home. All the furn-
ishings of her house were removed,
and even her own clothing, so that
escape was practically impossible.
She somehow managed by bribing her
keepers to get a petition through to
the authorities; but her thought was
not of herself. All she asked was
that her husband, wherever he was,
might be spared and restored to free
dom.
When she was finally set free she
found that her husband had been
moved from one prison to another.
For a year and half she followed
him with her babe in arms from one
prison to another throughout India,
often arriving just in time to hear
that he had been condemned to death,
With the news that he had been
spared she would take new hope and
follow unfaltering till he was finally
given his freedom. In the accounts
she gave afterward of this expert
ence she said that for months at a.
time she actually used to forget that
she had friends or had ever known
happiness in America; her whole
mind and thoughts were SO taken up
with the wretchedness of her hus-
bands condition.
She died in 1926, worn out by the
hardships she had endured. Her
work was not without It's results,
and it has been said that her name
will be remembered in the churches
of Burmah when the padagodas OF

Changing Pennsylvania History.

From the New YORK Evening HoSt.
VIII anyone believe that, within a
decade after the death of M. $. Quay,
a history of Pennsylvania has found
its way into Philadelphia schools in
which the Senator Is unexpectedly
referred to as a boss? OF course, as
soon as the awful discovery was
made the book was disavowed by
members of the Board of Education
and Withdrawn from the eligible
list until the libel should be ex-
plunged. The offending passage cul-
inmates in the following sentence:
''Of the various political bosses that
have arisen, he became the most IA
nous for ability and interruptions use
OF power" If any proof of SO notori-
ously inaccurate q characterization
were needed it would be found by
turning to tho index of Mr.. Roose-
velt's Autobiography" where we
read:
Quay, Matthew S., pleasant rela-
tons of author while President with,
170-172"
Can the coloners bitterest enemy
imagine him having pleasant rela-
tions"w with an INSCRIPTIONS boss? 1t
is true that the Outlook used to speak
of Quay in terms strongly suggestive
of those which have aroused the in
dlgnation of Ex-Governor Penny
packer and others, but this, 1t is only
fair to remember, was before 1t had a
contributing editor who owed to the
learned Pennsylvania, as he hand
somely confesses, his acquaintance
with the writings of the Finnish nov
elist, Topelius."

NEW NEWS OF YESTERDAY
Russell Sage and His Feline Pets

fled with the preparation of the his
tory of Oregon and California.
"I had occasion to call upon Mr..
Sage, SO that I might confirm GER
tain data which I was collecting and
which bore upon the careers of some
of the very wealthy men Of the United
States.
II rather expected to be summarily
elected from his office. Instead OF
doing that, he invited me to be seated,
and after a few moments came to me
rubbing his hands together In what

of his, especially when he was very
much interested.

The late Dowager Empress of
China. Yehonala, who died recently
in the Forbidden City only year
after the abdication of the Manchu
dynasty, was not so powerful or pic
turesque a figure as her wonderful
old aunt, the Dowager Tsu Hsi, says
the Youths Companion. Neverthe-
less, she was not deficient either IN
ability or charm. Indeed, she owed
her selection as the bride of an en-
peror to Tsu Hsi's appreciation OF her
accomplishments, tact and exquisite
manners rather than to kinship or
her personal attractions. Her race,
although 1t possessed expressiveness
and distinction, was not beautifui,
either according to Occidental or to
Chinese standards.
Tsu Hsi, when she thought it time
for the late Emperor Kwang Su to
marry, picked out some 20O canoi-
dates from among the noble young
| ladies of the empire, and as a prelim-
| mary. caused their horoscopes to be
| cast by the court astrologers The
result lessened the number to about
| a dozen, and these she invited to re-
side for a time at court, that she
might study their characters and
habits.

proved. indeed, a model wife for the
Young emperor and preserved always
her natural sweetness and simplicity
while she complied with the utmost
demands of the rigid imperial ETH
quette.

members of the court as model OF

SAYS BULGARIA is LIBELED

"The situation stands thus. There
WAS a previous treaty between Bull
garia and Servia which stated: West
ern Macedonia, populated largely by
bulgarian inhabitants, to remain I'M
der Bulgaria. When the Bulgarian
army defeated the Turks at ChataJa
and Galiopoli, suffering unreasonable
struggles amid cold and diseases, the
Greeks and Servians occupied the
above mentioned territory disregard
ing the treaty entirely.
sDuring 500 years under the Turk
ish yoke the Greeks seldom violated
the sacred rights of the Bulgarians.
AS soon as the Servians occupied
Western Macedonia they treated us
most cruelty, just because we were
Bulgarians.
1.-THE Servians prosecuted mostly
the teachers and priests, burning their
schools" and churches. Many of these
had to leave Macedonia and flee to
Bulgaria for their lives These and
many other cruel actions of the Ser
vians and Greeks provoked the Bull
garians to revolt and to fight for
their claim of the treaty signed many
years before. The Servians and
Greeks are the real cause of the war;
they are the ones who have been and
100, 900 Bulgarian fugitives are eye
witnesses of the fact. There is re-
ligious and political freedom in Bull
garia for everybody--for Greek, SER
Wan and Turk.
1.-THE Bulgarians are most thankful
for the American nations sympathies
and the Carnegie committee investi-
cation now going on. The state of
affairs in our country is deplorable,
and something ought to be done to
alleviate 1t.
Bulgaria Is a young nation in
whose veins the blood runs vigorous
ly, and it will not be long before 1t
vindicates its good name and regains
it's victory. Some day the truth will
be known, but it will not restore the
dead nor repair the losses that have
resulted from the intrigues of the
great powers"

Future OIL supply.

From the philadelphia Record.
Since Colonel Drake, in August,
1852 tapped an underground supply
of petroleum by sinking an artesian
well into the underlying rock, mining
for oil has grown into great world
industry. oil strata have been found
In all the continents and underneath
many of the islands of the world. The
United States yet holds the lead in
the quantity of oil produced, but it's
primacy has been at times threat
ened, especially by the vast outturn
of oil in Russia. And there are
other fields. Enough Is known of the
possible productive capacity of the
Mexican oil field to warrant extensive
purchases of territory and active COM
petition upon the part OF English and
American capitalists.
There is every reason to believe that
In South America will be found one
great source of future supply. Colom-
bia, Ecuador, Venezuela and Peru are
probably all underlaid with oil rock.
number of producing wells have
been sunk in Argentina. This is the
present extreme of South American
development.
The gradual falling off of supply in
the oil fields of Pennsylvania, Ohio,
West Virginia and other adjacent
States indicates the possibility Of
future exhaustion. That time is yet,
however, far distant. There are vast
stretches of unworked and undevel-
oped territory on the earth's surface.
There is seepage of petroleum from
the rocks In Alaska The tremendous
Californian output indicates like pos
sibi1ities OF supply along the whole
western coast of North America. 1t
will be many a year before we shall
have to go back to whale oil and tall

could hear the cat purring. Then in
a moment he called again-I have
forgotten the name-and another cat
appeared from some hiding place. a
very handsome maltese. Mr.. Sage
stroked the backs, scratched the
heads and talked to these cats in a
gentle voice and they seemed to like
the sound of his voice.
while he was thus petting these
cats he began to talk to me about
cats and kittens. He said: I am
very fond of cats. love to see kit
tens play. When l come home tired
out after a days work often spend
an hour or two after dinner with
these pets and 1t refreshes me-
HE went on to tell me a great deal
that he had discovered, as he thought
about the nature of cats. He some.
times found himself wondering how
many thousand years ago men first
tanned and domesticated the wildcats
that were the ancestors of the mod
ern domestic animal.

GUM DIGGING IN MARYLAND

OF all the many jobs have had the
only one I really liked was gum-dig-
ging. That was a jolly time! Few
have heard of gum-digging, and nc
wonder, for New Zealand is far away,
and there is no other place on the
globe where gum-digging is done, says
a writer in Parsons Weekly.
The gum comes from a magnificent
tree called the kauri. This tree is
now pretty scarce, but ages ago i'm
mense forests must have covered most
of the northern part of the North
Island. These forests were swept
away by fire, and today the landscape
is mostly low, brown hills with occa-
sional SwampS.
Gum burns very easily, but such as
was covered by the danl5 forest debris
escaped the fire. Hardened and pre-
served through uncountable ages, this
is the gum the gum digger seeks to-
day.
BY simply paying five shillings q
year you may wander and dig where
you like over immense areas of gov
eminent lands.
All you require is a spear to locate
the gum, a spade to dig 1t and a bag
to put 1t in. When you get home al
night you scrape and assert it accord
ing to size and quality. The whole
business can be learned In a day oil
two. After that it is all a matter O
luck.
Perhaps you will begin to thin1
there Is nothing SO very enjoyable il
all that; but really there is. In dig
ging you enjoy all the excitement o
gambling without mourning the sin
and then to work for yourself wheI
Won like. where YOU like and how vol
