ing few points at time. At the
end of the game the score was tied
and it was necessary to play an ad
ditional five minutes In order to de-
termine the winners. In this extra
period the better tactics and superb
or knowledge of the game of the
North Cache boys was clearly demon
strated, and they succeeded in run
ming their score up to 20, while that
of the South Cache stood at %. The
game was one Of intense interest and
large crowd witnessed the exhibi-
ton. The boys representing the
North Cache were: Guy Hendricks,
Albert Anderson, Russell Merrill, Ell
mer Skidmore. Marion Bair and

Everythi,o Sold on Pushcarts.

Every day is pushcart day on Full ton street, New York. The street is alive with carts which skate glibly over from corner to corner, darting under the noses of horses. and mak- ing hay while the sun shines. Every thing known to man is exhibited, mauied, and once in a while, bought. There are soft collars by the pack age, coMbs, brushes, belts. apples, neckties aud candy. knives. shoe laces, collar buttons, fobs. shoe polish, cuff buttons, 2ocketbooks, and everything else which can be compressed into a long, open-faced arrangement which goes about on two wheels. The street is a regular maze of bargains until the cop comes along and then there is a great scurrying for the other side of the street, where business is again re- sumed.

Hebrews as Miners.

The operations for mining as known to the early Hebrews are given in the twenty-eighth chapter of Job. The de- scription is highly poetical. In Egypt the mines for gold were worked by groups of convicts and captiyes in fet- ters. The harder rocks were broken by fire, after which picks and chisels were used. The miners were quite na- ked, as are the negroes of today who work in the diamond mines In South Africa.

MRS. BROWN HAS
 GAINED 20 PCUNDS
Was Conlined to Her Bed and Chair for Over Two Years, and Thought
 She Would Not
 Live Long.

You can tell them that it helped my wife. too; and of all the people that nave made state- ments about getting benefit from fanlac l believe we have h e most cause to be thankful, for she thought she wouldn't be liv- ing long and the doctor didn't give me any encouragement" :"
 This remarkable statement was made by Mir. J. L. Brown, we'll known carpenter of College Park, Atlanta. Mir. Brown added very seriously that he felt unable to express in words his great appre- citation for what Tanlac had done for his home and the mother of his eight children, and then went on to say;
 For over two years she has had to live practically on nothing but milk. being bothered as she was with a bad stomach trouble that kept dragging her down un- till she was hardly more than living skeleton. She didn't t seem to get any strengthing rest at night and simply had no energy for anythingY In fact, she spent aboutlalN her time between her bed and the chair and didn't feel like taking an interest in any thing.
 ''Sheshad a mighty bad break ings out on her ankles, too, and all the way up to her knees and these places would then swell up terribly. Her color was bad, too, and it just looked like nothing on earth could ever do her any good or liven her up.
 Well, some strange things happen in this world, and the change in her is certainly one of them, for it was a short time ago that she was as bad off as she's been at all, and now she's a well woman and I am sure a happy man! She has taken just three bottles of Tanlac and weighs 120 pounds that is, she's gained 20 pounds since she be- gan taking it.
 My wife TOW eats heartily, sleeps good and feels as strong as she did years ago. She is now doing all her own house. work and cooking and says she will never be able t. say enough about this Tanlac. We don't mind who you tell about this. for it's nothing but the plain, simple truth anb that don't hurt any body"
 Tanlac is sold in Brinkley ex- clusiyely by M. B. Converse; in l Clarendon by w. E. Everett; in Holly Grove by the Holly Grove Drug Co.,; in Hunter by Hunter Drug & Mercantile Co.,; and in Zent by P. R. Anderson, and in Duncan by c. R. Gordon.
