Turn over the leaf. You may re-
greet to place such page on the
record Of past years, but to mourn
over it will not change it. 1t is
page Of your past life now and must
count for or against. Just one thing
left, forget the past and press on.
A clean page is before you ready for
the record Of another year. The
great thing is to start it right--and

fIW I| NUIt u
With the fling of petition in a
Steauben county, New York, court,
for the appointment of an admins
traitor of the estate Of Sarah Dewitt,
who died there recently, a story has
come out that for its unusual and
striking character is fully the equal
Of any of the novelist's most imagi-
native tales. From the facts that
have thus been developed it appears
that the late Mrs. Dewitt was mar
ried to one Jonas Butler shortly be-
fore the breaking out of the Civil
War. Butler enlisted in New York
regiment and went to the front early
in 1862. The following year a re-
port came back that he had been
killed during an engagement in which
his regiment had borne promi-
nent part.
In reality Butler was not killed
but severity wounded and left lying
on the field. Later a party of his
comrades found him and carried him
off to the hospital where he lay for
months, wavering between life and
death. Finally when a normal ply
steal condition had been restored
his mind was such blank that he
could not recall any detail OF his
former life, and number of years
passed away before his memory was
fully restored. Then, about the
year 1894, he returned to his former
home, but was careful to disclose
his identity to no one. His investi
cations revealed the fact that his
wife had married another and with
his own eyes he say her in her home,
contented and happy. With mag
and unselfishness rarely
equaled he stole quietly away and
took up his solitary residence in
Pennsylvania where he still lives,
poor, decrepit and ill in his old age.
Mrs. Butler, it appears, waited a
number Of years after the report
IF her husbands death and when no
word came from him, either in con-
or in denial of the report,
she really believed him dead and
married again. She learned before
Ter death that her first husband was
till living, but her efforts to locate
linn we're unavailing. However his
lame was among the heirs cited to
appear in the court proceedings
boxing toward the administration
L her estate.
Call it Fate, Destiny, Chance
that you will--the fact that such
ramas as this are continually being
cted in real life serves to prove that
he Bard of Avon knew something q
hereof he spoke when he said: 4

one Way to Shorten Games.

After the remarkable success of Jack
yhesbro in 1904, almost every pitcher
in the American league was using the
spitball delivery, or bluffing it. This
fact caused the games to drag. Presi-
dent Johnson, peeved because it was
taking more than two hours to play
every game, wrote his umpircs for sug-
gestions as 10 methods which might he
used in shortening the contests. Most
ef-the umpires REPLIED at length, but
Tim Hurst's answer was short and to
the point. It read .Dear Ban: If you
are really in earnest about shortening
the games, try seven innings"

NO PICTURE OF HAIL STORM.
But One Taken Of Barrels Of Hail
Stones.

So far as known there was no
picture taken of Tuesdays bailstorm.
1t came so suddenly no one was pre-
pared for it. and no cameras seemed
to be in readiness. The storm was
over before one could think of the pic
ture.
Had any one taken photograph of
the hail storm on Spa creek or Severn
River. the picture would have sold for
hundreds OF dollars to all the magazines
in the country and Pathe Weekly.
On Spa creek the sight was sublime.
The large hailstones the size of base
balls falling into the creek had the ap-
pearance of cannon balls falling from
above and splashing the water as they
fell some ten to twelve feet. Such
sight will probably, never be witness
ed again. 1t was even more sublime
on Severn River.
While no picture was taken during
the storm, a photograph of several
barrels of hail stones after the storm
subsided, was taken at Bouchers'
boat house and is in the possession OF
Mr.. w. Marcy Boucher. The picture
is q curiosity.

The symptoms of kidney trouble are
