PRESIDENT EBBETS Is

NEW YORK, Nov. 26.-President

when he was chief OF police) Joseph
Federal Tinker and $4,000.
As is we'll known to earnest stu
dents OF the political and financial
history OF the Federal League Ebbets
bought Tinker for that sum from
Garry Herman Of the Cincinnati
Reds.
ITS a mere trlfle," thought Eb-
bets as he handed the Rhineland
Chief a certified check for the re-
lease OF the shortstop. Il can get II
back again by holding a splendid
Tinker Day and lure the shekels in
that way"
Unhappily, however, Tinker couldn't
see Gowanus and declined to write
his signature in the lower right hand
cornor-next TO the red seal-and
jumped to the Federal league instead
And the fans OF Chicago's North Side
held the Tinker Day"
But the saddest part Of the story is
that Joseph did not take into his
confidence President Ebbets and the
latter handed over the big check
without imagining that Josephus did
not care to play in the City OF Grave

and reported that his effort had been
successful, his officer asked why
he had volunteered such risky work.
The corporal said that the previous
night a friend had relieved a Ger
man officer Of good supply OF choc-
olate and a flask of brandy. and he
wanted to TRY his luck" too. "And
what did you get2" asked the officer.
The corporal grinned and showed two

gars.

Kindness to Others.

Many years ago two brothers were travelling in the north. Though they were dressed very warm in furs and blankets it was very cold.
 While on their way they saw a poor man almost frozen to death. One of the brothers said to the other,
 T am going to give this man my cloak. I may save his life.''
 The other brother said, Why are you going to try to save his life when you run the risk of losing your own I am not going to give him my cloak. You can if you will"
 And having said this he drew the blankets around him more closely.
 The other brother made no reply but threw off his cloak and put it on the other man. Then he went to his own sled and gave him some, wine out of a flask, and the man slowly came to.
 He then returned to the sled and said to his brother
 Look! His strength has returned '
 But he looked down and there lay his brother dead

 Katydids were heard over six weeks ago in this vicinity and fall cricketS sang shortly after.
 The hazelnuts were ripe nearly a month ago and my brother gathered some and made a hazelnut chain about seventeen inches long.
 The chestnuts are full size now; there has been no frost to open them yet, but when Jack Frost does come
 the chestnut season begins
 I want to gather all the chestnuts I can this season for they are soon to
 be a thing of the past. Have you not noticed small circles of dead bark around the chestnut
 trees? And as time goes on this
 circle grows wider till the tree decays and the foliage wits and turns brown.
 If you pull off the bark you can see many insects under it. This blight
 is killing the chestnut trees fast, and
 there are not many nuts on the chest nut trees that are not dead. The foliage of the maple is turning red. This morning I found one tree all red and other trees turning. The little Kochias in the garden are turning red also.
 Yesterday I happened to see some butternuts on the ground under one butternut tree and 1 opened one and the meat tasted quite ripe. Theif ShuckS were brown. Lately I found a wild rose which was very fragrant. The goIdenrod is turning brown and looks poorly.
 The swallows are now to be seen in f1ocks ready for migration. have seen many crows the past few days. About two years ago went into the woods one night where the crows were, and shouted. The crows were so frightened that they "cawed" for surely one hour before they stopped. Seeing all their trou- ble, they moved out of the vicinity the next night and did not trouble us any more.

by local applications, as they cannot reach the diseased portion of the ear. There is only one way to cure deaf ness, and that is by constitutional rem edies- Deafness is caused by an in- famed condition of the mucous lining of the Ezustacfian Tube. Nhen this sound or imperfect hearing, and when 1t is entirely closed deafness is the
 result, and unless the inflammation can be taken out and this tube re- stored to it's normal condition, hearing will be destroyed forever; nine cases out of ten are caused by catarrh, which the mucous surfaces.

UNCLE JEDS TALK TO WIDE
 AWAKES.

Uncle Jed wishes to call the atten- lion of the Wide-Awakes to the call of the school ;beIl-the American school bell-which calls together twenty mil lion school children in @ day.
 The world is amazed when at the command of governments sixteen mill Hon men rush to arms and the defense Of the flags in month; and it is an cPpo1ling thought. xAad America has twice as many Boys and girls of school age as there gre men under arms in Europe today, fpr there are ten million pupils of Ethool age who do not hear the call of the school bell and are growing up in ignorance.
 SWhat difference there is in these two great armies--one stands for vio- lence and the destruction of life and wealth. and the other stands for a better manhood and more firmly founded hope.
 When the school bell rings just pie ture to yourself the great army oi boys and girls who with books and laughter and nirnble feet seurry through city streets and country roads up hill and down dale, to meet and greet two hundred thousand instruc- tors. who teach them truer precepts and point out to them higher ideals than were ever taught such a host oi eager children before since the world began.
 They are being taught the advan- tages of true democracy, the superiori. ty of a. government of the people fo1 the people by the people over any other government upon earth.
 When the school bell rings it is nc dull sound to those who think. It is the music which summons to actiol and advancement a rising democracy which is to hold in security and pros. perity the land of the free and th< home of the brave for the protection and enlightenment of the oppressed ol every nation-a home for all who fiet
