More Than 4 Stranger.

Manager Hughey Jennings Of the
Detroit Tigers makes it a rule to give
a tryout to everyone claiming to be
ball player who comes seeking place
with him. One day at morning prac-
tice, as Jennings tells the story,
chap wandered in and asked for a
chance.
You're an experienced player?"
questioned Jennings.
"Oh, yes" replied the candidate.
Can you hit and field pretty good?"
"Oh, yes, indeed"
What do you usually play?"
I'm a right fielder"
well, go out in right" instructed
Jennings. and well see what you can
do"
Jennings instructed one of the pitch
ers to hit a few flies to the new man
in right and turned to other affairs.
He was back in a few momeL ; and,
greatly to his surprise, found the can
didate still beside the plate.
What are you doing here?" he
asked. 81 thought sent you out in
right field"
Yes, Mr.. jennings" was the reply.
You'll have to excuse me, but you see
I'm a stranger here, and which is
right field in this park?'-American

HIDDEN IMPURITY

eff American women knew how
much of our Coffee lies on the ground
for days, before the berries are finally
swept up and harvested, greater care
would be exercised in purchasing
this food For this Coffee is impure.
But its moldy color is lost in the roast
ing, and the partial decay is concealed
until it comes up harsh and bitter in
the cup. This fact is not generally
known to importers, for few of them
have studied conditions existing prior
to the arrival of their ships in port
So writes F. G. Harwood. And Mr..
Harwood knows. His long experience
in the tropical coffee growing coun-
tries, his deep intimacy with planta-
ton owners, his close study of their
customs, their methods and the
Tricks of their Trade" has acquired
for him a fund of knowledge which
places him far in the leadership Of
coffee connoisseurs, both here and
abroad.
Denison's Coffees are selected by F.
c. Harwood, personally, and it is here
that his power in the Coffee Industry
manifests itself to the qualification of
Denison's Brands His wisdom and
critical discrimination is appreciated
by Coffee Growers the world over, and
their respect gives him first choice of
the worlds finest crops. Thus, only
pure, hand-picked berries find their
way into Denison Cofees. His care
is your safeguard against impurity.

SKY MARAUDER IN AIRSHAFT
Birds Cling FearfuIly to Fire Escape
While Sparrow Hawk 7oyers
Near,

A servant maid in an apartment on
the fourth floor of the Victoria, at
Riverside drive and Ninety-seventh
street, opened the kitchen window
Monday morning and wondered why
dozens of sparrows that were hud-
ding on fire escape and window sill
did not take fright and scurry away.
Then she glanced outward and up
ward into the airshaft and discovered
the reason.
A sparrow hawk, sun glinting on its
wings, was wheeling rapidly high up
in the airshaft, but below the roof
level. Occasionally, when the marau-
der's keen eye glimpsed a sparrow
which hadn't taken refuge it darted
like a fash. Twice while the maid
watched the hawk made a capture and
scared out of the airshaft.
The air pirate worked for about two
hours and disappeared shortly before
noon, but it was at least half an hour
later when the plump, brown spar
rows recovered from the terror caused
by the hawks appearance.

WORSHIP HEROES IN EFFIGY
Figures iE Commemoration of
Ancient Warriors.

In Kasmir, India, it was once my
good fortune to visit a Hindu Duss-
rah or native fair. The cantonment
of my host was some distance away
from the grounds, so We mounted two
of his horses and rode through the
village out on the road to the fair
grounds, where we rode much Of the
way in the wake of an interminable
procession on it's way to the Duss-
rah.
Above the heads of the multitude
three towering figures caught my eyes.
They were fashioned after the form of
man, but crudely and grotesquely, and
they were 100 feet tall. turned to my
companion and asked him what they
were. He told me that these mon
strOus effigies were reared to com
memorate an ancient NEUROLOGICAL war
which, according to Hindu belief, took
place in Ceylon IN the long ago
Whether the story is true or not,
the figures were undoubtedly real, and
became more monstrously real the
closer we approached them. Later,
when we strolled at their feet, | saw
how they were made. Bamboo poles,
bound together after the Indian fash
ion Of piecing out scaffoIding, formed
the framework, and they were an
chored to the ground by ropes hid
den under the costumes that were
made of coarse cloth The heads of
the figures, grotesque and unreal in
their workmanship, were surmo1nt-
ed by fancy crowns of gold and col
ored paper.
The fair, indeed, was devoted en-
tirely to the praise Of these mytho-
logical warriors and the heroic deeds
they are supposed to have done in
the ancient Ceylon wars.

GODS OF LOVE AND JEALOUSY
Sometimes Associated. But Not BY
Any Means lnseparabIe, as Gen.
orally Supposed.

The prevalent idea appears TO be
that there can be no love without q
pretty large admixture of jealousy,
and that, conversely. almost every case
Of jealousy springs from some mis-
guided love affair. Whether this idea
is the right one or not is decidedly
open TO question. Ideal love affairs
preclude jealousy altogether, and
where absolute trust and c0Ef dence
exist there is no room at all for the
green-eyed monster.
One curious attribute of the jealous
woman who plans 70 sweep her rivals
out Of the way is that she generally
shows a marked lack Of brains in her
methods. Jealousy not only blunts all
her finer feelings, but at the same time
it causes a curious confusion of mind,
which fails to take the proper grasp
Of consequences and which is utterly
illogical and childishly reckless IN its
workings.
One has only to glance at the daily
papers to see this fact practically illus
trated. The schemes Of the Jealous
woman are the most ch1ldtshly lmma-
ture in the world, and in almost every
case fall to pieces and bring speedy
retribution on her own head. For not
alone does the victim suffer. The worst
generally comes upon the plotter her
self.
Love very often does bring q GER
tain amount of jealousy in its train.
But at the same time it is entirely up
to ourselves to curb those feelings and
to keep them from outward and visible
expression. Moreover, it is perfectly
true that, although love generally does
admit of jealousy. the latter can exist
and flourish pretty successfully with
out love.
Therefore in the last analysis we
may most assuredly claim that jeal
ousy and love are two distinct and
quite separable affairs.-Savannah

Two Boys, a Cow and TWO Calves.


This is a short story of how two
Vermont boys, still in their teens.
have made some real money In thor
oughbred Guernsey. They paid 5000
for the animal when she was two
years old, and as their father was a
banker and they were away to school
a farmer was induced to keep the ami
NAL for them. They owned the COW
a little over two years and during that
time she had two calves. The boys
found q ready market for the calves
and have just sold the COW, the three
animals having been sold for S525.
The farmer charged them 1925 for
keeping of the stock and other ex-
penses and the boys will net 500
apiece from the transaction. The boys
are quite satisfied with their invest
ment and incidentally have become
somewhat interested in life upon a
Vermont farm.-Springfield (Vt) Re

Changes in Auto Laws.

Much ado was made early in the
legislative session to change the auto
mobile laws, particularly in respect to
the distribution of the license moneys.
At the wind-up it is found these
laws are not generally modified and
the distribution of the funds remains
exactly as it was, rs per cent to the
county of origin, and % per cent to
the state highway fund, all to be used
for highway purposes outside of cities
and incorporated villages, after the
cost of administration of the law is
deducted
One of the new laws provides that
any person who drives an auto vehicle
on public highway while intoxicated
shall be subjected to a fine not to ex-
coed 500 or to imprisonment from
five days to three months.
Another act provides that a garage
keeper who keeps posted conspicuous
~ fee bill, may have a lien on any
auto vehicle left to be cared for. n
is practically the same as the hotel
keepers lien.
The speed limit law was amended
to forbid driving faster than eight
miles per hour through the grounds
Of any county or state hospital or poor
farm.
Cities and villages are given author
ity to enforce ordinances regulating
automobile traffic not in conflict with
the general laws. Police officials are
given the right to exceed the speed
limit when in pursuit of criminals or
law offenders.
The license fee is unchanged, S. for
an automobile; 81 for motorcycle,
and SO for {. dealer, including four
sets of number plates.
Secretary of State Donald has made
up the record of auto vehicle licenses
for the fiscal year and apportioned the
moneys to the counties. Total receipts
for license fees was $417,925. Follow
