which include half farthing. do not

Rules of the Game.

Industrial success is personal. not so

down; the existing social system is not
keeping men at the bottom; it is their
own personal deficiencies that keep
them there. Industrial success can be
won at price, and the price is OBJ
servance Of the inevitable rules Of the
game-namely, sObriety. industry, saw
Ing. avoidance of speculation. knowl-
edge Of human nature. good judgment.

and integrity. No social system ever
keeps man down who has these quail
tiles. Is 1t not the best thing for the
world to find out that Industrial sue
cess can be won only by the display
of these qualities ?-J. Laurence Laugh.

THE SQUEEZE PLAY.

ats Success Hangs on the Batter Hit
ting the Ball 10 the Ground.
The squeeze play is one of the pretti-
est in baseball when successful When
it fails no play makes ball team look
more foolish The play is best worked
with one out, runner ON third and
run needed to either tie or win the
game. Many OF the best base runners
when about to make the play create
the impression that there is no inten-
ton Of pulling it by taking only a fair
lead off the base and standing still
The very moment the pitcher starts
his movement the man on third tears
for the plate.
If in any way the intention 30 use
the play is tipped of or foreseen It is
an easy matter for the catcher to
break it up by calling foT waste ball
impossible for the batter to bunt It. 1t
is an easy matter 10 touch the base
runner out and make the team trying
the squeeze appear ridiculous. But a
successful completion of the play usu-
ally puts the team in the field in the
air and makes them book equally fool
iSh.
The squeeze play does not call for a
hard hitter or a good hitter, but 1t
does call for man with good eye. a
fellow who invariably hits the ball,
even though It may not go safe. If
the batsman bunts the ball in the air
an easy double play is usually the re-
suit If he is able TO keep the ball On
fair ground there is seldom chance
to stop the run at the plate. 1t Is not
necessary to have a fast man on third
to make this play, for most of the play
depends On the ability Of the batsman
to keep the ball on the gr0und.-Billy
Evans In st. Nicholas.

MEAT IS A STlMULANT.
Hence, Eaten In Excess, 1t Is Bad For
Both Body and Mind.

Hence, Eaten In Excess, 1t Is Bad For
Both Body and Mind.
The director of one of the largest
physical culture schools in the United
States said not long ago to friend Of
mine:
Every time eat piece Of good
beefsteak 1 feel as stimulated as If l
had drunk cocktail"
This curious statement embodies a
truth Of which most people are un,
aware.
Meat is not merely food. 1t also is
a stimulant, with definite exhilarating
effects on both mind and body.
Eaten in excess, moreover, it acts
much as does an excessive amount of
the alcoholic beverage mentioned by
the physical culture director.
That is to say, it tends, in the first
place, to cause nervous irritability, max.
ing it more difficult for a man to con-
troll his passions and sometimes max
ing him positively savage.
And, in the second place, when eaten
in excess it makes him mentally inert
and stupid.
The reason for this second effect is
well known to all scientific students of
food values.
Cooked meat, the form in which.meat
usually is eaten. is not easy to digest.
If too much Of it is eaten imperfect
digestion results, and the blood stream
is poisoned by the decomposing animal
food in the alimentary canal.
Not total abstinence, but temperance
enough meat to spur the mind, not
enough to deaden it-that is the lesson
to be drawn from the demonstrated
stimulant effect of animal food - 81.

TripoIi,a Scottish Admiral.

Tripoi has long had a bad reputa-

gade Scotchman, Peter Lyste. Desert
ing the English ship on which he was
mate, Lyste turned Moslem, married a
near relation to the reigning pasta and
soon rose TO the position of lord high
admiral Of the fleet. He did deal of
mischief, but came to bad end.-Lon-

SERPENTs AS HYPNoTIsTs.
The Charm They Use on Animals They
Succumb to Themselves.


Succumb to Themselves.
Cases of fascination by serpents Of
birds and other small animals have
been too frequently reported to admit
of serious doubt on the subject. Evil
IDENTITY it is simply a kind of hypnotism
and based. like human hypnotism, on
the effects Of rhythmical impressions
made upon the nervous system.
Experiment has proved that the mo-
notonous swinging of a glittering OBJ
ject before the eyes will throw many
men and women into hypnotic sleep
When serpent charms or fascinates a
bird or small quadruped it employs a
similar method. 1t sways its head with
glittering eyes or sets it's brilliantly
coloreG coils into silent rhythmic move
ment within sight of its victim. and
the latter gradually yields to the In
duence.
But the most dangerous serpents are
themselves subject to this very hyp-
motto control, a fact which is the basis
Of the proceedings Of the serpent
charmers of India and those Of 9th
er countries where venomOus snakes
abound.
Music, or the monOtonous repetition
of musical notes, appears to be the
most effective agent in serpent charm
ing. 1t may be remarked that accord
ing to some observers the sounds pro-
duced by rattlesnake, and even the
loud kissing of some serpents. have a
hypnotic influence, or at least sort Of
paralyzing force, due probably to ter
ror. The cobras of southern Asia and
the closely related najas Of Africa will
come out of holes, erect their heads
and a part Of their bodies and sway
about in a kind Of serpent dance when
they hear the notes of a pipe played
by skilled performer.
However, no cobra charmer ever has
sufficient confidence in his control over
his dangerous subjects to neglect the
removal of their fangs.
A cobra bite has been known to kill
man within few minutes of its in
fliction.-Garrett p. Serviss in Detroit
News.
