The Asylum's ADVANTAGE.

At the orphan asylum the childless
Mrs. Hathaway, who had selected an
infant for adoption, suddenly showed
trepidation.
''Will have to keep the baby il it
doesn't suit my husband?" she asked,
hesitatingly.
"Of course you won't have to keep
It," responded the accommodating
matron. You can bring the kid back
and exchange it any time. We're not
arbitrary, like the stork."

Sees Prosperity at Hand.

1T seems to me that can say with
a good deal of confidence that we are
upon the eve of new era of enter
prise and of prosperity. Enterprise
has been checked in this country for
almost 20 years because men were
moving amongst a. maze Of interroga-
ton points. They did not know what
was going to happen to them. All
sorts of regulations were proposed and
it was matter of uncertainty what sort
of regulation was going to be adopted
All sorts of charges were made against
business, as if business were at fault,
when most men know the great ma
jority of business men were honest,
were public spirited, were intending
the right thing, and the many were
made afraid because the few did not
do what was right.

The baseball life of a left-handed
