which he is too bashful to use, and
his organization might be nominated
the Macks. Hanson, if he is an
American citizen, has a very Swedish
sort of name, therefore the name of
his team will be the Swedes. Far
be it from The Republican to get
funny with the president of the
league. 1t is also quite distant from
the mind of the writer to call Presi-
dent Slocum slow. But that chance
is almost too good to lose. so his
gang shall travel as the Poke easies
Lynn is another of that there sort
of name, which is difficult to nick
1t may be Mr.. Lynns right to be
boss OF that outfit. but it has been
suggested that there are a number
Of other boWlers in the teams whose
cognomens would be much eaier to
use. So Lynn's flock will have to
be classed as the No-Names..
Tomorrow night the No-Names
and the Macks meet. Thursday
night the issue lies between the
SWedes and the Poke easies. And
the weeks last game will be fought
by the Spearmints and the Barn
stormers. After this week regular
schedule will be made up with games
Monday, Wednesday and Friday

In the fourth, after an exchange

APPEAL MADE BY THE "FTZZ"
Seductive Bubbles Add Charm to Soda

Drinks.

Few things appeal to us and cap
lure our fancy like bubbling spring.
AS it comes sparkling out of the cool
depths of the earth, it smiles up at
us in the friendliest way, like some
SHY, living creature, inviting us to
come and slake our thirst; The mere
sight of a spring usually makes us
thirsty at once, no matter how re-
Gently we may have filled up on tap
water or well water.
No little of the charm of the soda
fountain is due to the rush and bulb
Bile and sparkle Of its stream, as it
pours kissing and'swirling and foam
ing into the glass And who can tell
how much of the fatal seductiVeness
of equally effervescent but less inno-
cent beverages, with their crimson
sparkle or creamy foam, or purple
bubbles winking on the brim," may
he due to their hypnotic appeal to
our fascinated eye, as we 'look upon
the wine when it is red, when it
moveth itself arightP"

jaded minority.
No small amount of the charm o.
'fizzy" drinks, whether innocent O.

In the omnibus he took his seat near
the conductor and always showed
himself very obliging, passing up the
money of passengers and returning
the change, but to the latter he always
managed to add a franc or half-iranc.
Then he would watch those to whom
it came. They would count it care
fully. notice the extra coin, and in
variably slip it into their pockets.
But at last young woman passed
hers hers back, with Conductor,
YOU have given me half a franc too
much. . The man followed her to
her home, learned what he could
about her, and made his will in her
favor, though he never told her that
the halffranc returned would bring
her million. The man was so &C.
centric that it is question whether
the courts, if tested, would hold the
sanity ofthe will, and yet two lessons
are taught by the incident; one that
many people will take from the pub
lie conveyances by the retail in wick
ed return for the amounts many of
the public conveyances take from the
people by the wholesale, and the
other is that honesty carries with it
its own priceless reward. The reward
is not always in money although
material reward usually attends integ-
rity But the consciousness of a
pure spirit is a richer reward than
money.-Christian Herald.
