Aladdin Look. for Beauty.

Aladdin rubbed his lamp. Almost immediately there was a sound at the door and the slave entered.
 Bring me the prettiest girl in New York;" said Aladdin, land get a move on you, too."
 The slave vanished, and almost in an instant the door opened, and the slave, bearing in his arms the prettiest girl in New York, entered and put her down in chair Aladdin looked at her in astonishment. She had on a shabby dress. Her hair was tousled. Evidently she was from the East side
 What are you trying to do?" he said to the slave. "Why don't you fill your order correctly? asked for the prettiest girl in New York"

EastIdious Pet.

The members of an automobile tour ing party from Washington to Balti- more stopped for the night at certain caravansary at Hagerstown, in Mary land. Since the food supplied them was execrable and since their kit fur nished the necessary implements, aside from the raw material, they de termined to have Welsh rabbit Ac- cordingly two were deputed to proceed to a corner grocery, there to obtain the cheese and crackers. When the old chap that kept the place came for ward one of the two said:
 We want couple of pounds of cheese and some large, square crack CTS for Welsh rabbit"
 The old man seemed doubtful. 'I got the cheese, all right" said he, 'but I ain't got no large, square crackers. Won't your rabbit eat the small ones?" -Harper's Magazine.

 Kauff was lost to organized bali back in the days when Hal Chase was managing the Yankees. Hal had him, but refused to waste time in giv- ing him a thorough trial. Kauff drift ed to the New London club, and led , the Eastern association with 176 hits in 135 games for a mark of .345. He possessed all of his hitting ability while with the Tanks, and feeling that he was being done an injustice, had no hesitancy in joining the Feds when an offer was made him.
 Kauff is the most dangerous hitter in Gilmore's circuit as well as being the best. His work has been a large factor in the success of Bill Phillips team.

FIRST HOME RUN OFF MATN
"Wee Willie" Sudhoff Turned the Trick at the Polo Grounds, but
 Did Not Win His Game

One day two young hurlers were en- gagged in a regular pitchers battle. They were both right-handed, but that ended the resemblance. One was over six feet tall, the other was five feet and about two inches over.
 On June .21. 1901, at the Polo grounds, the home of the New York Giants, these two hurlers battled for five innings without allowing run. h the sixth the visitors managed to get a man on with their midget hurler up, the little chap who had been pitching his head off and come in from his task with the sweat streaming down his face.

He flashed the ball through with all the stuff he had, and the little fellow swung at it with all the stuff he had-and his teammates declare with his eyes shut However, an awful 'crack followed. and the ball sped away beyond any field.

NOT A PROMISING MARKET
seaslckness Probably Responsible for Actors Disposition of Cargo
 of Potatoes.

The late William H. Smith of man. agerial fame and Charley Backus of minstrel fame many years ago em- parked from San, Francisco for Aus tralia on a business venture.
 The captain of the boat, who was an intimate friend of each, suggested that the voyagers lay in a cargo of potatoes to dispose of on their arrival there. The "Murphys" were accord ingly purchased and placed on board.
 Now, MT. Backus was always recog- nized as a great comedian. but with the deck of ship instead of stage as his rostrum he wasn't 50 funny. In short, Mr. Backus was seasick. Mir Smith proved an excellent sailor, and while Backus was stretched out on a chair Smith said, Charley, in case you die, what shall I do with those potatoes?" :.
 And Poor Backus, who thought he was dying, said: Go to hades with them"

All the Fault of Nurse That Small Girl Could Not Walk in the

Maria had been naughty and mother seriously remonstrating with her, thought to press home needed sug- gest1on.
 "I can't think why you persist in doing wrong. my dear," she said, sol emnly. Tt always makes us unhappy when we do wrong" ' "But-but I often don't know it's wrong till I've done It," sighed the small culprit-
 "But,' mother urged again, you should know, my darling. Your con science will tell you if you listen"
 Whats my conscience and how will 1t tell me?" wide-eyed and eager.
 Your conscience is the little voice inside you that says 'No!' when you shouldn't do things and makes you feel sorry when you've made mis- takes"
 'Oh, then I'll never be good!" mourned the troubled sinner. T had a voice like that once, but nurse said it was indigestion and she gave me some medicine and it died"

Freak of the Bean Ball.

If 1t hadn't been for rap on the head by pitched ball some two years or so ago, Miles Main, the young pitch CT who suffered his first defeat of the season against the Red Sox, might have been a partner of Carrigan's star wonder workers, Leonard and Foster, says Boston writer. Main was at Jersey City when that club was the Red Sox farm, and in the natural course of events would prob ably have come this way. However, after he was hit on the head his work fell of and he was traded to Buffalo, where he achieved even better results than when on the Sox farm. The bean ball works some queer changes in baseball.

LONE SPECTATOR WAS READY
Umpire Hart Relates Peculiar .Experi- ence in Western League-BIeaeh-
 erite Was "AIl Set"

William Hart, the new umpire in the National league, who Is making good in fine fashion, has been identi- fled with baseball more than 30 years. Until recently he still was able to pitch. and in his day he was one of the best twirlers in the business.
 This is not Hart's first experience as an umpire. Several years ago he umpired in the old Western league for 3 season and then went back to pitching again. The veteran is full of queer stories of his experiences. Recently he told this one on himself:
 One day when I was umpiring in he Western league I got to Kansas Gity. The club had been going poor 7, and when the game time came iround there were only eight specta- .ors in the grand stand and one man sitting in the bleachers. He had an umbrella over him, for the day was tif1ing hot.
 When it came time to announce he batteries, announced them to the eight patrons in the grand stand, and hen I thought I would make the an- 1ouncement to the bleachers. So I walked down to where the solitary 9leacherite was sitting, and, taking If my cap, yelled:
 Ladies and gentlemen: The bat. -eries for today are White and Black or Kansas City, Green and Brown for Omaha!'
 "The one lone bleacherite made a 'esture with his arm and replied:
 I'm ready. Go on with the game.'"

The Feds may not be offering as good sample of the national pastlme as the American and National leagues, but there is one individual enrolled with an outlaw team who doffs his cap to no one.- His speciality Is hitting. and in that respect he equals any of the famous sluggers in the other cir cult, not even excepting Ty Cobb of the Tigers.
 This particular player is in our midst today, and is member of Bill Phillips Hoofeds. His name is Kauff, Benny Kauff. af
 Russell Ford, star hurler of the Buff feds, and at one time member of the New York Tanks, is authority for the above statement. Rus words may be taken in all seriousness, for tho former Highlander has faced Ty Cobb, Joe Jackson, Iris Speaker and the recognized sluggers of the age.

NEW IDEA Helped Wisconsin Couple.

It doesn't pay to stick too closely to old notions of things. New ideas often lead to better health, success and happiness.
 A Wis. couple examined an idea new to them and stepped up several rounds on the health ladder. The husband writes:
 Several years ago we suffered from coffee drinking, were sleepless, nerv- ous, sallow, weak and irritable. My wife and I both loved coffee and thought it was bracer." (Delusion.)
 Finally, after years of suffering, we read of Postum and the harmfulness of coffee, and believing that to grow we should give some attention to new ideas, we decided to test Postum.
 When we made 1t right we liked it and were free of ills caused by coffee. Our friends noticed the change-fresher skin, sturdier nerves, better temper, etc.
 These changes were not sudden, but increased as we continued to drink and enjoy Postum, and we lost the desire for coffee.
 Many of our friends did not like Postum at first, because they did not make 1t right. But when they made Postum according to directions on pkg, they liked it better than coffee and were benefited by the change" Name given by Postun Co.,, Battle Creek, Mich. Read "The Road to Wellville," in pkgs.
 Postum now comes in two forms:
 Regular Postum-must be well boiled. 15o and 25c packages.
 Instant Postum-is a soluble pow Ter. Made in the cup with hot water no boiling. soc and 50c tins.
 The cost per cup of both kinds is about the same.
