DREADED TO. EAT.
a Quaker Couples Experience.

How many persons dread to eat
their meals, although actually hungry

Nature never intended this should
be so. for we are given thing called
appetite that should guide US as to

But we get In q hurry, swallow our
food very much as we shovel coal into

becomes unnatural and perverted.
Then we eat the wrong kind Of food

CAST PEARLS BEFORE SWINE


Perhaps the bitterest moment In the
life Of d lover OF books 10 when he
finds that his treasures are valued by
no one but himself. The late Profess
sor Churton Collins once tried to
weed out his books. after he had be-
come convinced that either the sur
plus volumes or their owner would
have to move out Of the library.
The wedding was q painful process,
but at last the secondhand book deal
or was invited to name his price for
the uprooted weeds They're no
good to me-" was the disconcerting re-
ply.
What, none Of them!'
= NO, not one"
Some one suggested, that, as the
books had to go, the dealer had bet
ter have them for nothing. It was q
bitter moment for Mr. Collins. but
finally he assented. The man then re-
marked:
"That'n be half crown.
What do you mean? What for!'
exclaimed the victim. in q restrained
tone Of voice.
For taking them away said the
man.
That was too much for Mr.. Combs
The dealer was driven forth with OBJ
jurgations, after which, with q sigh Of
relief. the owner replaced the books
upon his shelves. Youths Companion

lack of this department cannot be fig

He still is batting far over 800 and
his fielding average this year is up
near the top. 1t is likely that Lajoie
will be benched for a few weeks so as
to secure a good rest. but the POSSIBLE

SAN FRANCISCO, June 28.-Billy
Nolan, deposed Manager of Willie
Richie, may be in the corner of Mexi-
can Joe Rivers, when the lightweights
shake hands for the start of their bat
tie on July 4th. 1t all depends on
whether Nolan thinks the Los Angeles
glove man has as good as an even
chance of winning and at present he
entertains that idea.
Billy Wilson is going to do every
thing in his power to take from Willie
Richie his laurels. If he thinks that
his presence in the corner of the op-
position will hurt Willies chances of
winning he will be there.
Nolan was spectator at the Rivers
camp yesterday. He thought that Riv-
ers was in grand condition and fit and
has the better chance. Were Richie in
the best of condition Nolan thinks
Richie could win. But he is just as
shape. Nolan says Willie cannot make
