Hubbard pulled off two grand stand catches while he was working in'the center garden. _ Ed Bleickner for Bemidji and “Smith” for Cass Lake umpired to the satisfaction of the majority of the fans. Bleachers are to be constructed for the benefit of those fans who like to-stay out in the sunshine, thereby keeping the crowd farther away from the base lines where they will not interfere with the players.

G | KANGARCO A NATURAL BOXER Youngsters Are Taught by Their Par-| ents and Acquire a Really High Degree of Efficiency. Kangaroos are natural boxers. The . younger kangaroo s taught to de- fend himself in this way as soon as he is old enough to hop about. Nat- uralists who have watched the uni- mals in their native surroundings say it is very funny to see the mother giving the youngster his first boxing Jessons. ° Afterwurd the father takes up the teaching, and with much gentle- ness and patience trains him to box. When kangaroos box they back off and rush in and prance about very skitlfully. Each one watches for an opportunity to strike, and at the same time tries to prevent the other from striking. They cleverly try to move about so as to get the enemy Lelow them on the slope of a hill. The resounding blows they give with their hind feet can be heard far away. The kangaroo fights like a gentle- man. He is a good sportsmun, even when he Is fighting with his enemy. ‘The animals strike with the flat of the foot, and never use against each other thelr terrible ripping claws. The Original Feminine.

Cortez, the conqueror of Mexico, en- tering the court of the king, Monte- zuma, on the evening of November 8, 1519, found the whole court seated on the floor playing with dolls! this, history might have been different. Later, when Cortez sent an espedi- tion northward into what Jis now Texas, he found a curious worship of dolls among the Hopi Indians, the dolls being given to the children for toys after the ceremonies—a custom which persists among these people to this day.—Leslie's YVeekly. SURSCRIBE FOR THE PIONEER Miss MARGUERITE K, O’LEARY, of Reading, Pa., who says she has gained eight pounds and can hardly find words to cxpress her praise for Tanlac for the good the medicine did her. “I am so happy over what Tan- lac has done for me I can hardly find words to express my praise,” said Miss Marguerite K. O’Leary, who lives with her parents at 1223 Chestnut St.,, Reading, Pa. “I wasn’t exactly what would be call- ed sick, but for a year I had been all run down and sometimes felt so weak- and miserable I could hardly hold up my head. I was so nervous the telephone bell or a door closing would startle me so I would tremble like a leaf. “I needed something to build me up and give me strength and en-| ergy, and that is exactly what Tanlac did. It gave me a fine ap- petite and improved my digestion. I gained eight pounds, the color came back to my face, my nerves became normal and I soon felt as well as I ever did in my life. It is! simply wonderful that medicine could make such a big change in any one. My friends and neigh- bors are surprised when they see me now, and no wonder, for I look like a different person. Tan- lag is grand and I never intend to mis about it.” Tanlac Id by all good drug- gists.—Advertisement. ke € LADEEZ "N GENTMUN—— WUNSY UPON A TIME'THEY WUZ AN EDITOR WHOSE NEWSPAPER PLEASED EV'RM BODY, ‘N WHieH ™EY DPRAISED MO STRANGERS! .

Articulated railroad trains devised tQ lessen the passenger rolling stock amd increase the capacity are those in which the ends of adjoining cars are carried on a single truck. They have been used in England for several years. The cars are “permanently” coupled together. Each train, says the Sclen- tific American, whether of two, or five, or ten cars, forms a unit, the trucks of which are so disposed that the dis- tances between their centers through- out the train are all equal. Trucks are placed under the outer ends of each train, the other trucks being placed under the adjacent ends of the car bodles forming the system. Sety ot five bodles on six trucks have been running for many. years on the Great Northern; and there is. no construc- tlonal reason or any other apparent reason why trains consisting of 10 or 15 such cars should not be built, where the traflic callg for the use of larger units. 3 There are four principal advantages which have been proved in the experl- ence of the company, with these trains. 1, reduced first cost ; 2, reduced weight; 8, reduced running cost; 4, improved riding of cars. The last is due to the fact that there is no overhang of the bodies beyond the trucks, and that the adjacent ends of the bodies are cae- wed on a common: truck center. Clever Mining Method. The increasing depth to which it 18 necessary to go in following the veln of kuoline, or potters’ clay, mined near the Housatonic river in Connectl- cut, some time ago caused the intro- duction of a novel method of min- ing. Wells from 50 to neariy 100 feet in depth are driven and two pipes, the outer four inches and the inner two inches in diameter, are introduced. Water at a pressure of 40 pounds a square inch is forced down through the smaller pipe and rises {hrough the larger one, bringing with it about 5 per cent solid matter, of which 75 par ! cent is puré kaolin. | o 95¢ D TIRE E= A S SPECIAL 95¢ While They Last PUMPS PUMP8950 PUMPS A BIG VULUE C.

Tom- my thinks the teacher is a severe and occasionally unjust person, who has never known what it is to be young, while the teacher considers the little chap both stupid and mischievous. “You are not attending to what I | say, Thomas,” said the teacher one day in the midst of an address to her class, “Yes, teacher, I 1s,” sald Tommy | with much earnestness. “You should never say ‘I is'” cor- | rected. the. teacher.. “I have told you | that a hundred times. You know the correct form. There are no excep- tlons to its use. Give me two ex- amples at once!” . “Yes, ma'am,” said Tommy, meekly. “I am one of the letters of the alpha- bet. I am a pronoun.”—Philadelphia Ledger. Remarkable Old Beliefs. | Since the age of legend, thunder gnd lightning making has always been | made the final proof of the supernat- wral. Thor and his huge hammer, which accounted for the thunder to the old Norsemen, and Joye or Jupiter, who hurled his lightning and thun- der in anger and thus explained.this natural. phenomenon to the old Greeks and Romans, are only two of the hundreds of instances in ancient be- lef. In later, times e brand of magi- cian and; evil-doer’ Was put upon many alchemists, with rumors that spitting tongues of fire and.crashes of thunder were: seen and heard in their labora- torzes. \ Wherever You « EXTRM COPES GOY AY TH' PAPER NER NUTHIN " [T ——————— First Train Into the Ozark. - ‘When the White River branch of the Missouri Pacific rallroad was built down through the Ozarks, the popula- tion had never seen a railroad train, The platform was crowded, and many women were there with their sun- shades. . The engineer made a lot of unnec- essary snortings with his engine and would reverse the throttle, causing the wheels to spin around, which terrified: the people. Then he turned on the side valves, blowing out great jets of steam, and the people almost fell over themselves to back out of the way. Finally the engineer stuck his head out of the cab window and sang out: “If some of you ladies don’t put.down your parasols I don’t believe I can handle ‘this critter much longer.” In three seconds every woman low- ered her parasol, and they seemed much relieved when the engineer got his train in motion without further trouble and went lumbering away down the track.—Columbus (Kan.) Ad- vocate. 3 Rainbows Shaken. 1t Is usually supposed that the down- pour of rain that sometimes follows a flash of lightning is due to the coa- lesence of fine drops on losing their electrical charge, but a Finnish ob- server concludes that the thunder jars the drops together. Near Vasa a heavy thunderstorm came up from the east late one afternoon, and, as the sun was unclouded, a brilliant double rain- bow appeared in the east for half an hour, arching from horizon to, horizon. At each roll of thunder the rainbows seemed to be much shakem; the wedge being displaced and the colors blurred. This could not be due to the lightning, and it seemed that the same cause might enlarge the raindrops and dis- turb the rainbow. ——re R P SO R e R T s A o Gd You FOLKS PHONED IN ITEMS 'N SUBSCRIBED FER DISTANY FRIENDS, PAID FER NEVER BORROWED “TH' NEIGHBORS oFFieE., Hard on Bores. “Arthur J.

" Violin Strings. Each string in a violin is of a diff- erent thickness, according to the tone dnd tension required. The fourth string is covered with fine wire, either a white metal or real silver, hence it s oftén called the “silver string.” Violas, violoncellos and double-basses have ‘each two covered strings, the object being to insure a sufficient gravity of tone without having too clumsy a material. . The covered strings on the guitar are upon a basis of silk instead of catgut. The best gut comes from Italy, which has been famous for centuries for this prod- uct. Strings are carefully selected and graded as to size so that they shall be uniform. The larger strings for the bigger instruments. are stretched on: frames for three or four days. The covered strings are finished on & spe- cigl lathe which covers them with floss silk or fine silverplated copper | wire, or even silver. Will Find Buick Authorized Service.
