Seme Interesting Facts Which Are Not Generally Known. From the Philadeiphia Press. Stewart Culin lectured upon to; day afternoon, in American Hal museum of archaeology, at the University of Pennsylvania. Mr. said: “In nearly all countries of Europe toys and games get thelr names from animals. Our familiar game of battledore and shuttlecock is play- ed nowhere so gracefully as in Japan. Bere toys are not given for pleasure altogether, but so that children may perfect themselves for tne duties incident to maturity. A girl learns to play battledore and shuttlecock so that she will know how to use the Jap- anese washing paddle in after life. “Our game of quoits I saw played outside of Madrid, only the quoits were stones. The Sioux Indians play a game of quoits similar to our ‘duck on Davy.’ It is called by them ‘standing cob.’ Kite flying came from Asia. In China the kite is an emblem of the boy. Tae parents consider it as the bad soul of the boy, and when the kite season comes arcund the mother writes on her son’s kite: ‘O soul, go away and take away all those offenses that my boy will commit during the year.’ “When the boy has his kite flying at a great height the string is burnt by a slow Match, which has been attached near the kite. The kite files away, taking alt the bad things from the boy with it, and if anyone should find it he does not dare touch the kite. The boy does not fly another kite till next season. “The small drum on the end of a resin- ous string, which malges so much noise when whirled, is similar to the sacred ‘bull roarer’ of the ancient cliff-dwellers. You have all seen the many bicycle games, yacht- ing gemes, etc., which are being sold now. They are all, every one of them, from the old game of ‘goose.’ In every country, in every tribe on the face of the earth this game has been played. I have seen it Play- ed in Germany, Holland, Egypt and by the American Indians. In Italy I bought a game of ‘goose’ two centuries old. “This rude and primitive specimen that is before you I received from some Indians. They take these three sticks and throw them against this larger stone, and the po- sitions in which the sticks Iie determine the number of moves that can be made in the spaces between the little stones. “In conclusion, I will say that the well- known French game, ‘Jeu Moral et Instruc- tif’ I have found among the Hindoos.”” ENGLAND'S DEFEATED ATHLETES. America’s Victory Explained as the Result of a System, Not of M From the London Trath. The speeches at the London Athletic Club dinner teemed with references to the American trip. That of Mr. M. Shearman, the chairman, was awaited with as much interest as a premier’s utterances at the Guildhall banquet. He began with a Rose- bery-like flippancy. But he soon settled down to sound common sense. The upshot vas: Don't excuse your defeat. “Ascertain, if you please, the causes, but if you went to give battle where causes that pointed to inevitable defeat existed you have only yourselves to blame. The American vittory was not so much that of men as of a system. When the match was arranged a wave of enthusiasm spread from the Pacific to the Atlantic. Any one with any pretensions to athletic fame of- fered his services. There was the machin- ery of the New York Athletic Club, with its free training stables—I mean tables— ready to train anybody of sufficient ability. In England promises were made to be broken, and half a dozen persons said &cod-bye to five men who were to repre- sent England out of all the champions that bad been chosen.” That was the gist of his speech. Nor can we blame the New York Athletic Club for paying the expenses of the men i train- ing. Oxford and Cambridge board and IcGge the men for the university boat race. A journey to Hanley is a heavy drain on the college boat club. The fault of the American system is that men, be they pros or amateurs, are taken in hand at all times and seasons, and not only trained, but supported at the expense of the New Yerk Athletic Club or the universities. The discredit to the Americans is that men competed who are now declared to have been pros. Mr. E. T. Sachs, at the same dinner, cracularly hinted that the Sports Club was going to make some mighty move in the way of amateur reform. If it provides the sinews of war our amateurs will be able to hold thei™own with the Americans if they come over here. DIGESTION AND WORK. Sick People How May Save Their Energy. It is se ward work for some “people to digest their dinner as {t is for a normal man to walk ten mites. “After dinner rest m while.” ‘This is an old saying. It means that if after eating a beavy meal you try to do hard work you will exhaust all your energy. There will be none left for your stomach, . Your stomach needs energy to work just as your Jeg or arm docs. Sick people want energy. They seldom have enough for thelr stomzei. Their digestion is out of order and they want to know the reason. It's simple enough a8 we have tolil it. ‘What they ought to do is to seve thelr stomachs from hard work until It is capable of doing it, just as they rest their tired backs by lying down. ‘This they can do by using artificially digested food. Shaker Digestive Cordial contains such food. Not only this, but it is capable of digesting other foods in the stomach. Shaker Digestive Cordial affords nourishment and creates mew energy a8 soon as it is swallowed. Ordinary food first has to be digested. Digestive Cordial while creating new energy does not expend any. It gives the stomrch no work to do. It will make thin people fat. Sick people are naturally thin. Getting thin Is = sign of sick- ness. A person may be born thin, and naturally remain 90. Such a one is not necessarily sick. All druggists keep it and a 10-cent sample bottle may first be tried. “Complete Flour.” The color is a brilliant white. Nutty flavor—appe- tizing. It has NO woody fiber (bran) in it. It makes beau- tiful bread. It is very rich (Pear 300 times the best flour) in the elements that nourish the BRAIN, the DIGES- TIVE FLUIDS, the TEETH and BONES. Con- stipation, brain fatigue, indi- gestion, irritable stomach and dyspepsia, caused by under- fed and starved organisms, are cured by the simple and sensible process of supplying the needed nourishment to BRAIN, NERVE, BILE, BONE. 2S Se etes cicial ia and by uning ‘its metltn.

Thinks There Should Be More Cor- diality Toward Americans. Sir Walter Besant, in commenting on Mr. Hall Caine’s views of America, and pub- lished in the Daily Chronicle, says: “We don’t know the American people in this country, and we ought to know them; they come over here by the thousand, by the hundred thousand, and we do nothing to entertain them or to make their acquaint- ance or to show them that we should like to know them. Are we ashamed of our- selves—of our homes—of our women, es- Pecially—that we do not want to show our- seives to them? We have no feason to be ashamed. “The Englishwoman is not so intellect- vully cultivated as the American, but she need not fear comparison.
