Tigers Trained There.

The Detroit Tigers trained at Gulfport
In 1914 and were satisfied with condi-
tons. though heavy and consistent rains
caused them TO lose much needed prac-
tice. However. that was a rainy spring
everywhere in the South and the Tigers
did not blame the wetness upon the city.
Gulfport Is situated directly on the
Gulf of Mexico, where bathing facilities
are excellent. Mccoy expatiated on the
good drinking water to be found and
left for home satisfied that the Griffmen
may be seen in his home town next
spring.
Grif Wanted Macon.
IT was expecting to take my team
to Macon, Ca" explained Manager
Griffith to Mccoy. THE New York
Yankees were to move to Dayton, Fla,
and was to take their place at Macon.
But the decision of Captain Huston TO
remain at Macon at least another year
spiked my plan. and so now l am In
the field for a proper place.
What l want In my training camp
Is good water, plenty OF bathing IA
cilities, ground high enough to offer a
bracing climate without being subject
to cold winds. a good hotel and a grass
diamond. II Gulfport can provide these
requirements. l may go to Gulfport."

Not only did it prove the most

from the fact that 500 children,

WHAT LITTLE THINGS WILL DO

A crumb will feed a little bird,
A thought preventan angry word.
A seed bring forth full many a

A drop of rain foretells a shower,
A little cloud the sun will hide,
A dwarf may prove a giants
guide,
A narrow plank a safe bridge,
guide,
A smile some cherries spirit
warm,
A step begins the journey long,
A weak head oft outwits the
strong,
A gulf defies the angry sea,
A word will set a captive free,
A hornet goads the mighty beast,
A cry of fire" breaks upa feast,
A glass shows wonders in the
skies,
A little child confounds the wise,
A straw the course of the wild
wind reveals,
A kind act oft an old grudge
heals,
A beacon light saves many a life,
A slight will often kindle strife,
A puff of smoke betrays the
flame,
A penstroke cen will blight a
name,
A little hand many aims bestow,
A message shall bring joy and
woe,
The widows mite a great gift
proved,
A mothers prayer has heaven
moved,
Then let us not, the poet sings,

And Let His
Beauty Be Upon Us

To help make the world a lit
tie more beautiful is not only a
human privilege, but ought to be
regarded as one of the highest
expressions of the religious spirit.
Consider the lilies, !" urged the
Master, and then showed His own
love for the beautiful things of
the earth; showed with what ap-
probation He had watched the
poisoning colors about the farm
homes of Judea. by adding that
Solomon in all his glory was not
arrayed like one of these!"
To keep and beautify a garden
was the first task given to man;
and the God who not only covers
the summer world with flowers
lind in autumn, makes the whole
earth almost like one huge bou-
quet but also gives us the glory
of sky and sunset and Night,
vast with her stars. He must
also will that we should live daily
with eyes ever open for the
beauty with which He has sought
to surround US. Every really de-
vout soul must echo the prayer
of Moses, the man of God" in
the wonderful Goth Psalm: Let
Thy Work appear unto Thy SER
wants and Thy glory unto their
children. And let the beauty of
the Lord our God be upon us. ;"

Cow Swallows Big
Snake But Lives

The following comes from
Jackson-a dry town-and so
must be believed:
One of the most peculiar incl
dents that ever occurred in Jack
son happened when a cow swal,
lowed a snake three feet long
and more than an inch in diane.
ter. DR.. C. H. Wright, veteri-
marian, treated the COW and has
the snake on exhibition to con-
vince the doubters. The veteri.
marian was first called to treat
the cow for swollen lip. Later
he was called to treat her for
collie. The snake was passed.
The supposition is that the COW
was bitten on the lip by the
snake and in an effort to dislodge
the reptile with her tongue she
swallowed it. The cow will live
and appears to be none the worse
for the unusual diet.

u. S. Marine Is Seen
Carrying Umbrella

Come to think of it now, did
you ever see a United States
Marine in uniform carrying an
umbrella?
RE d e n t s of Washington
Street, Brooklyn, caught q
glimpse of a Marine recruit car
rying a contraband humber
shoot" during rainstorm, but the
glimpse was nothing more than
that.
At the very outset of the re-
cruit's journey two older Ma
rines met him, took the umbrella
away from him and broke it up
before his mortified gaze, paying
not the slightest heed to his plea
of having purchased the thing
but ten minutes before. Then
the older Marines gave the re-
cruit severe lecture on military
proprieties and left him alone to
ponder.
There is no service regulation
to prevent the carrying of UNI
brellas by uniformed men, but
there is an unwritten law of the
Marine Corps which Classics
the umbrella as piece of femi-
nine fnery, and it's use is taboo
with older heads who know the
ropes.

Speaking the love of a soul that neer dies.

Never marked your fowery face;
Never shame for deed have you shown;
Never act that did lead to disgrace.
Frankly you look at the world passing by,
Lifting your head to the glow of the
Brave is your heart in the hour when you die
knowing wrong marked the deeds you have DONE
Gently take from your 1owery bed
Some of the blooms of your beauty rare:
Lay them. will, on some grave of the dead.
Then let you sleep with some friend lying there.
Dear little flower! when the world looks at you,
May it forget how to ever dc wrong!
Then to will forever be true

Kidney, Bladder and Uric Acid troubles

are weak or diseased, these natural filters
do not cleanse the blood sufficiently, and
the poisons are carried to all parts of the
BODY. There follow depression, aches
and pains, heaviness, droWsineSs, irrita-
bilty, headaches, chillinesS and rheu-
matism. In some people there are sharp
pains in the back and loins, distressing
bladder disorders and sometimes obstin-
ate dropsy. The uric acid sometimes

even from some vegetables. The poor
