Ted Lewis, one of the old time polo players, furnished the thrills in the victory of Hartford over Bridgeport last night at the Casino when the lat ter team fell down, 10 to 5, in fast but onesided game. Lewis hair is gray. but he skates around the rink like a youngster, making ten of the 8 rushes last night and scoring eight of Hartford's ten tallies His first goal was a corker. He beat Mull1gan to center and at the same time un- corked a shot which drove the ball into the cage in two seconds of play. That shot and goal really predicted Bridgeport's downfall for during the remainder of the game they played in a dazed manner. Numerous passes were missed and the absence of team play was prominent so Lewis, who night, caged four goals in succession in the first period and his contribu- tions we've all that were made in the session.
 During the second period Lewis missed chances and failed to register tally, but he finished strong and in the last period made four more goals, putting his total for the night up to eight. Quigley of the local quintet caged a couple of pretty ones on drives from the center of the floor, while Hart also got a pair and the other one was caged by Leo Mulligan. The tlulSley H1en Olun WoTk lo- gether last night like in previous games and they were. outlucked on several occasions.
 The ball simply would not roll for them and that is the story of Hart ford's victory at the Casino last night On Saturday night the local team will play Salem and this should be a cork ing good game. The summary: Bridgeport Hartford. MulIigan Lewis

THE CAUSE OF
HIGH MORTALITY
IN INFANTS

1t is estimated that around 100000
babies die annually in the United
States, and that fully two-thirds of
these deaths are caused from diarr-
hoeal diseases or complications. These
disturbances in baby's stomach and
digestive organs are due mostly to
improper feeding, which throws poi
son into the system. This poison un-
less eliminated, makes a mighty sick
baby.
When baby begins to fret, does not
sleep well, suffers with constipation,
dlarrhoea, sour stomach and gas, or
is sometimes feverish, this is a sure
indication of Indigestion, or improper
assimilation and elimination, culmi-
mating in serious trouble unless cor
rected with good baby laxative.
When baby is in this condition great
care must be used not to give it
strong, irritating drugs that inflame
the delicate membranes of baby's
stomach
Baby Ease, a perfected baby lax
ative by a baby specialist, is consid-
cred the most efficient baby laxative
and corrective. 1t is easy acting,
non-irritating, does not produce over
action or leave constipating after-ef-
fects. Your doctor will approve its
use. Ask your druggist for "Baby
Ease" adv

That Washington merchants and

This Florida Idea OF yours is a
great and coed idea for Florida. And
l enjoyed the extended quotation from
Ben Franklin's autobiography anent
the knocker and the rapid growth OF
the City of Brotherly Love-. What
FRANKLIN saw taking place N Philadel-
phia is actually taking place in Tampa
today and in the whole state of Flor
ida. While some people are knocking,
Tampa is growing into the dimensions
of a great city and the state is rapid
ly developing its vast resources.
I'm the year 1900. I went to Okla
homa City to live. It was then a vii
lage of some $4,000 people. Values of
real estate and other things were
rather high, and many predicted that
the bottom would soon drop out In
the four years / was there the town
grew into a fine city of more than
10000, and all property values went
sky high
1T is now a city of nearly 10o, 900,
and property Is bringing almost fabu-
lous prices. While I was there came
near buying a downtown corner lot
for $1,000. I allowed the croakings of
town knocker to give me cold feet.
Some years later that same lot was
leased to a company of Northern cap
italists for ninety mine years at $4,000
a year. You see what the knockers
did for me. But they will not be able
TO permanently hurt Tampa and Flor
ida; for all the real facts are too OBJ
viously against them. Keep your Flor
ida idea going. 1t is a real service to
the state"
The possibilities of such plan of
publicity are certainly unlimited. and
if other firms in the state would pur-
sue the same course, not only would
the cities of Florida be greatly bene-
fitted. but material would be secured
which would be of value to the state
in many others ways than as publicity.

Il don't know what sort Of ladies'
maid Katie will make" laughed
Dicky. but at least she is willing. and
she adores Madge. She will walt on

to-"
Mrs. Graham made no reply 20 this
speech, but bent over her tea service.
I could read her well enough to know
that she would dearly love to decliLe
Katie's services, because of the girls
liking for me. But her desire for per-
sonal service, to which she was accus-
toned, conquered.
.You are sure it will not upset your
household routine to spare me the
maid?" she asked at last. The words
were courteous enough, but the tone
implied that my household routine was
"T will send her to you at once" I
replied frigidly, taking the vase of
sweet peas, which I still held, away
with me.
But before I went to the kitchen to
summon Katie I filled the vase with
water and put the pretty, fragrant
flowers on my dressing table.
"There!" I said defiantly to myself.
"She may do as she likes in her own
room, but the rest of this establish
ment / shall run as I please"
But even as i spoke there crept over
men sort of half guilty. half re-
sentful feeling, the identical emotion
which used to be mine when, as
child, did some forbidden thing.
Was this taste of what life with
my mother-in-law would be? Was
always to feel thus 'cribbed, cabined
and confined?''
