Jungleland Resounds With The Whoop of the Savage and the Snarl of the Tiger. Jungleland shivers and quakes as a result of last Sunday’s game when the Savages walloped the Tigers by a score of 12 to 10. Long before the game started it was evident to all that it was going to be a battle royal be- tween primitive man and the beasts of the jungle. The Tigers entered the arena in calm and even strides, agile and confident of their prowess and supremacy as_ becomes members of the tribe of the genu felis. The Savages were a little late, and unlike the Tigers, seemed worried and irritated, as if in- stead of challenging their neigh- bors of the denizen to battle in the arena they had_ signed a chautauqua contract. They were not much in evidence until the time came for the battle to be- gin, when with a whoop anda yowl they entered the arena adorned with the trophies of former victories and brandishing their tomahawks in a threaten- ing manner in an endeavor to appall and frighten the Tigers into a state of coma and be- wilderment that would make them easy victims in the im- pending struggle. But the Tiger curved his back and with his caudel’ appendage listing to- wards the moon met the charge with a growl and backfire that completely routed the Savages and despite the efforts of their chief they fled to the jungles from whence they had come. When order had finally been restored all but seven of the tribe had fled. Thereupon the Chief addresed his men, exhort-| ing them to battle but to no avail. Bosco the Snake Eater, end Ahkut of the tribe of Terzen and Ole Skijarsen counselors to the chief shook ‘oir heeds and refused to do hettle unless their ranks were filled. The chief thereupon ap- reoled to other tribes to come to ‘heir snecor that they might lay low their rapacious enemy. There came forward three, all ‘ecognived for their valor and »roficiency with the big stick ond mitt. Ole Skijersen was sud- denly transformed from a timor- ous savage to a roaring lion and | hegon chanting the French song! he leorned overseas while doing "DP duty the refrain of which is something like “Jehan geh du voran, Du hest die grosen Stiefel an, Des mich das Thier nicht beisen kan.” The game was now on and the whoop of the Savages and the ‘Horls of the Tigers completely Trowned the umpire’s voice. "ck end forth the bottle roged. Pete, a descendent of the tribe of Swedenski, realm of Scandi- hoovia, had the Savages com- pletely buffaloed as long as he had a full head of steam on, and Prine Look-oud kept the Savages in such a state of uproarious laughter that the Tigers went mousing between the _ acts. Always in the lead until the last half of the eighth when the Savages broke loose with a rip and a roar that netted them five runs before the Tigers could stop them, The Tiger’s tongue began to lap from his mouth and dried up like a tobacco leaf at the pros- pect of coughing up four bits for ice cream for a savage to eat. But the Tigers are coming back next Sunday. “Ay tank she goen to bea gude game alright.” “Hatemahl.” Pan-American Railroad Is a Stupen- dous Project Which Is Apparent. ly Near Realization, The time is approaching, and will come sooner than most people expect, when it will be possible to travel in comfort by rail from New York, Chi- cago or San Francisco to Brazil, Santi- ago or Buenos Aires, by the Pan- American railroad. This great north and south line is a stupendous project, observes the Scientific American Magazine, The scheme in its entirety involves large figures and heavy costs, the total length of the line being 10,116 miles, which is not so very far short of the combined length of the three shortest of our transcontinental systems. It should be understood that the enter- prise does not, and never did, contem- plate the building of an entirely new system of that length; for much of the route is made up of already existing stretches of national railroads. Tak- ing New York as a starting point, the line runs to the Mexican frentier, and from thence through Mexico, Guate- mala, Honduras, Nicaragua, Costa Rico, Panama, Oolombia, Ecuador, Peru, Bolivia and Argentina, to Buenos | Alres. Even today it is possible to travel by railroad from New York to the fron- tier of Guatemala; but from Guate- mala to the Canal zone over half of the line has yet to be built. The long- est stretch of uncompleted line Is from the Canal zone to the boundary line between Peru and Bolivia, where, out of a total of 3,862 miles, only 542 miles have been completed, Also there is a stretch of 127 miles in Bolivia on which work has recently been com- menced. The line from Bolivia to Buenos Alres, a distantve of 1,060 miles, has been completed. To date 6,500 miles out of a total of 10,116 miles have been built. Fighting Insect Pests, A new method of control of “scrow- worms,” ‘“wireworms” and sod web worms which attack tobacco and sim- {lar crops has been discovered by the tobacco Insect laboratory of the Unit- ed States Department of Agriculture. Tt has been found that these worms are very greatly attracted to nitroben- zine, and by flavoring poison with this chemical a mortality of from 80 to 90 per cent of the larvae in heavily infest- ed fields is produced. These larvae are very important pests of tobacco and a large variety of other crops, and up to this time fall plowing and other Indirect methods were the only known ways of combating them. FREE !

It {s a beautiful thing to plant a tree, but It is doubly beautiful to plant the right tree in the right place. The deed loses half of its beauty when a tree Is placed where it does not belong, and where it will be impossible for it to add to the joy and comfort of those who may be near it in future years. A tree placed in a location where it will be in the way, and where it cannot develop In accordance with its natural tendencies, is doomed to be a failure. The same ts likely to be true of the tree that is planted with- out thought as to the variety that is best suited to the situation. It is the tree planting that involves thought and judgment that is the real blessing tainment that is unparalleled in the annals of music.

Everything to Eat and Wear to numanity. The beautiful thing in the planting of the tree is the attitude of mind of the one who does ft. Those who are to receive the benefits from the act appear long after the work is done; those who do the work are seldom di- rectly rewarded for the labor. When a person plants a tree, he is contrib- uting to the pleasure of generations to come, and if he plants the right tree in the right place he bestows a bless- ing upon others In the most unselfish manner. If, on the other hand, the wrong tree is planted, the future gen- erations cannot reap the full benefit ; of the work done years before by the } well-meaning but uninformed results becomes less beautiful.—Ili- nois Arbor Day Bulletin.

Wireless, having brought hearing to the deaf, is now bringing speech to the dumb. This latest wonder ts made possibie by the invention of Mr. J. W.
