On Sunday Langdon lost both games
to Clyde on the visit of it's ball team
to that town. There is no kick COM
ing on the performances of any of
the boys. The county-seaters are a
little weak on their staff of pitchers
and the result was partly due to that
cause, especially when it is consid-
cred that just now Clyde has little
trouble to cinch results with the error
less work of it's battery. Score in

8 to 9.

Hail did considerable damage to
ripening crops Of grain through the
south end Of Cavalier county in the
storm which passed over about noon
on Tuesday. Reports which reached
Langdon during the afternoon indicate
that the path of the storm was nearly
two miles in width and that it entered
the county near Hampden, ~traversing
in a direction from southwest to
northeast. In around Iona the
damage to crops will in some cases be
nearly total. 1t appears to have pass
ed almost directly over Iona, where
broken windows and the badly devas-
tated gardens show the force with
which the large hail stones were
driven toward the ground by the ac-
c~ompanying wind. Varying damage
to crops is reported by Leander Lock
hart, L. Chaput, VIM. Shelley, F..
Stamm and others. Langdon parties
interested are the real estate firm of
Sturm & Price, John Sheehan, j. D..
Milne, R. T. Burke and DR.. Donovan,
all Of whom have quite an extensive
acreage in the hail stricken area.

CONCERNING DREAMS.
No doubt the demand for dream
books has fallen off. and dream inter
prefers are hard to find, but mankind
continues to be impressed by these
mental mysteries, as it has been since
the days OF Joseph IN Egypt. A learn
ed Austrian professor devotes a re-
Gently published volume to the inter
probation of dreams. Needless to say,
there is no superstition about it His
findings and explanations are based
on purely scientific grounds. He be-
leves that most of our dreams are
founded on wish fulfillment-a char
acteristic of the imagination common
to the dream and the psychosis. Usu
ally it is the wish to obtain; some
times the wish to avoid. The profess
sor, whose own dreams have greatly
interested him, cites homely causes
for these phenomena. thirst being one
of them. If he eats salty articles Of
food, he becomes thirsty in the night
and awakens. Usually this awaken
ing is preceded by a dream in which
the professor has the sensation of
drinking. The dream liquid is just
what he Graves, sweet and cool, and
ne awakens with his thirst sharpen
ed. The professor goes far for some
of his explanations. but he determin-
edly carries the impression that there
never was a dream that couldn't be
solved by natural causes.

Human Nature at Its Worst.

The young woman who was cast on
by her fiance when he discovered her
drinking in the unsavory evidence at
a murder trial earned what she got.
The morbid interest in filth that
crowds such a court room is about as
revolving an instinct as the world
shows. 1t makes one wish to apollo
gize for being human being.
A certain amount of morbid Curl
osity Is present in the most whole
some of us. The instinct to stare at
cripple or hang about a street acct
dent is pretty widespread. But every
right-minded man or woman recog-
nizes the unhealthy quality of the
instinct and tries to choke 1t down.
To the credit of humanity be il said
that only the very weak specimens
yield.-New York Tribune.

lreland's Siqnposts.

Ireland is the country for useless
signposts. During the last few years
there has been an outbreak of Gaelic
League activity in the country. Among
other manifestations it has taken the
form of erecting signposts with Gaelic
Inscriptions. There is one such in the
little village OF Omeath, in County
Louth. 1t directs the traveller to Car
lingford and to Newry-but it directs
him in an unknown tongue 1t is not
easy to see what useful purposes is
served by such a sigrpost. For the
inhabtant knows his way without any
such assistance and the English
speaking traveller is unable to find it
unless he happens to consult one OF
the villagers, not one of whom-so far
as have been able to discover-can
either read or speak single word Of
Gaelic.-London Chronicle.

The most marvellous tree In the
world is the Carnahuba palm, which
grows in Brazil. Its roots produce the
same medicinal effect as sarsaparilla.
From parts of the tree wine and vine
gar are made. Its fruit is used for
feeding cattle. OF the straw. hats,
baskets, brooms and mats are made.
1t Is also used for thatching houses.
The pulp has an agreeable taste. and
the nut is sometimes used as a sub
stitute for coffee. Its stems afford
strong, light fibers. and serve also for
joists, rafters and other building ma
terials. 1t yields a saccha-ine sub
stance. as well as starch resembling
sago. OF the wood of the stem mu-
sical instruments, water tubes and
pumps are made. From the stem
white liquid similar to the milk of
the cocoanut may be extracted. More
over, salt is extracted from the tree.
and likewise an alkali used In the
manufacture of common soap.
