THERE was circus In town. In
1 spite of his twenty-five years
Adam Ashmead felt all the thrills
Of a boy Of ten as he swung briskly
down the street toward the circus
grounds that June evening. From
the distance was waited the blare
Of a brass band.
eli, there, ADAM" called a clear
young voice. care you going to the
circus?"
Adam came to a sharp halt, and
lifted his hat as Sally Christy joined
him.
Sure" he said, smiling at her
eager face. II wouldn't miss it for
anything. I'm just as keen on a
circus as when l was a youngster.
! enjoy the whole outfit"
$50 do l." declared Sally gaily.
SIT is my secret ambition to be a
bareback rider. Put me under the
big top, with the band going, and
the horses kicking up the sawdust
gosh, it's great"
Sally" demonstrated Adam, with
pretended severity, "you must not
say-'gosh.' 1t is a vulgar word
for young lady to use. The circus
has demoralized you. Go home, and
to bed, my child"
"How about your lordship?"
Knocked Sally. HAS your mamma
given you permission to 60 alone to
the circus?"
"I'm not going alone, Miss I'M
pertinence. shall be under the
protection of Miss Daisy Twining."
Sally's bright eyes clouded.
"O-h," she commenced, soberly,
and the raillery of her manner
dropped. well, I'm going alone
and must hurry on"
Adam watched her disappear. It
would have been fun to go to the
circus with Sally, he thought, with

dead" Ball Is Tested

When the umpire barks "Play
Ball" on opening day, April 10,
fans in the National league will
have a first hand chance to draw
their own conclusions about the new
dead" ball.
Recent midwinter tests at Balti-
more, Md, of this new ball with
sluggers Jimmy Foxx of the Amer
lean league, Chuck Klein Of the Ma
tional and Charley Keller Of the In
ternational league participating
brought three conclusions from
baseball men assembled:
l. The dead ball has a soggy
"whoosh" sound when hit.
2. The livelier American and Inter-
national league ball emits seeking
"whack."
8. Either ball will go over the
fence when hit "on the nose"
Before 800 shivering fans and
