WINTER ATHLETICS

The twentieth century man seems
to grow a little more athletic every
year. In former times when the
bah grounds closed up for the fail,
the sports had to hibernate with the
grounding.
Today the interest in such win
ter games as basket ball and bowl
ing approaches the summer fervor of
base ball. The physical culture PEG
pie who first thought out the COM
plicated strategy and structure of
basket ball may have thought it was
going to be a polite and parIor

ACTION OF SINGLE SPOON
Full SURPRISES MANY

Grand Rapids people who bought
the simple mixture of buckthorn
bark, glycerine, etc, known as Adler
i-ka, are surprised at the INSTANT
effect of SINGLE SPOONFUL.
This remedy is so complete a bow
ell cleanser that it is used successful
ly in appendicitis. Adler-ika acts on
BOTH upper and lower bowel and
ONE SPOONFUL relieves almost any
case of constipation, sour or gassy
stomach. ONE MINUTE after you
take it the gasses rumble and pass

TURNING OVER
THE LEAF Of
The new YEAR

When it comes to balancing the
books of the years experiences will
there be a debit or a credit in our
personal account?
Are We doing all we might to in
crease the standard of community
life? Are we making ourselves all we
ought to be?
Passing from one year to another
presents an opportunity for estimat-
ing the value of what has been, and
planning for what shall be.
Of what value is the past, unless
il yields judgment that shall guide
our future steps?
Of what benefit can we be to the
future unless our actions are shaped
by memories and experience?
The perfect life on earth is but
the accumulation of wisdom which
makes it possible to know how TO
avoid that which lacks real value!
The perfect experience is that
which teaches Us how to grasp and

KNIFE PIERCES CHILD'S EYE

Eau Claire, Wis, Dec. 20 = Two
year-old Florence Penoquin, daugh-
ter of MIR. and Mrs. Peter PelIoQuin
OF Cornell, will probably lose the
sight of one eye as result of an
accident. Her father in going forr az
sistance fell and broke an ankle.
Both are patients at St..Josephs hos
Ptal. The child was watching herr 5
year-old sister attempt to cut a shoe
string with a jack knife, when the
knife slipped, striking the little girl.
The blade penetrated the right eye

If so, It has passed beyond that stage
The openings for rough-house are al
ways present 1t would take as many
referees as there are men TO keep
the slugger where he belongs, in this
swift kaleidoscope scramble. Spec
tators become intensely BIASED by
sympathies, unable to see straight or
TO report accurately. If there Is real
war, the other fellows always struck
the first blow.
Bowling is q god send to oldermen
who are too sluggish for basket ball
To the serious minded it may seem
trivial, just rolling big balls at little
sticks evening after evening. But
the long columns OF strings and
strikes and spares recorded by the
newspapers shows that the game
has its own wierd fascination.
The elusive ball slips deity thru
the thick array Of pins, removing but
one or two, while the others leer at
you derisiveIy. Angrily the bowler
gives the ball fatal twist, and it
rolls heIplessly to the side. The
whole game seems a war between
human skill and the perYersity of in
animate things.
Much Of the time that used to be
spent peacefully under the evening
lamp now gose into these two games.
Perhaps it undermines home life,
but men who have played base ball
and tennis and golf all summer are
not going to sit down with kings
and jacks and two-spots as they did
in less muscular times.

THE CAUCUS OF JULY IS
Lowndes J. Browning's Reply to the
Invitation.
The Invitation.

July II, 1914.
Hon L. j. Browning, Sedalia. S. c.
Dear Strive have recently been
forced to the conclusion that we are in
the greatest danger Of having two
Blease men in the second race for gov
ernor.
Admitting that the vote for govern
or will be 10000, it will in all proba-
bility be divided between the two fac
tions in about the following propor-
tons: $4,000 Blease and 10000 anti
Blease. These votes will be divided
one side and six on the other. If
equally divided among the candidates
of the respective factions it will give to
the Blease candidates 10000 each and
to the others 1866 each. OF course
this equal division is not to be expect
ed but we think every indication points
to the conclusion that the anti-Blease
vote will be more equally divided among
Blease faction. The latter is largely in
control of Mr.. Blease, while the former
is largely independent and cannot be
controlled by one man or any self con-
stituted body of men. This being the
case does it not stand to reason that
Mr.. Blease who is an unusually shrewd
politician, will in the first primary use
his best efforts to put two of his men
-, ~ 70
to the best Of his ability divide his vote
as nearly as possible between two in
stead Of three If this is done it is
practically certain that the six candi-
dates, any one Of whom would be ac-
ceptable to the majority will be elimi-
mated and we will be confronted with
the humiliating spectacle of having
Governor Bease dictate our next gov
dent danger some of our six candidates
must sacrifice their ambitions and
many of us our personal preference for
governor to the cause of good govern
any of the six candidates would gladly
make if the selection could be fairly
and impartially made. How this should
be done is serious question. 1t GER
tainly cannot be left to any self con-
stituted body of men but must be done
justly and impartially with an eye to
the public good. We each have our
preference for governor, some are IN
clined to one and some to another, but
any of us would gladly sacrifice our
personal preference to accomplish the
election Of any one of the six anti
Blease men now in the race for gov
