Tobacco and Oversleeps. It may aeem atrange that I bave been chewing tobacco since I waa twen-ty-two montha old and nm atlll chew, Ing, says- a cortespondent of the Leb anon (Mo.) Enterprise. About two und one-half yeara ago I made a resolution to quit and did quit for twenty-five diiya. feeling no 111 effects nntU about the end of that period, when ull of a sudden I began to have sleepy spells and had to quit reading. Many times I did not know when I went to bed. but when I went to sleep my wife weuld wake me np some time the next day. I finally got afraid to go np In the woods for fear I might go to sleep and the big snake would carry me to Its den and swallow me. So I broke my resolution by taking another chew and the sleepy apell wus broken as suddenly as It came on. Can any one explain why all this hap pened? ( "First-Aid Auto Kit" Latest.

VILLAGE OF CHESS-PLAYER? Everybody In Strossback. German,. Plays Came and It Is Taufciit in Schools. Stroesbeck, Germany, a little x-asnnl village of l,5U) souis, .bcusis ti.ut It contains not a wan, woman or thud oi school age who does not play the un cient guuie of chess, says a corre pondent of the New Tork Tribune Even the small children bave kings queens, knights and pawns as play tilings. Stroesbeck's fondness of chess dates back to tbe Eleventh century, ao the story goes, when Count Uunnelln of the Wendlsb tribe, held here as a prisoner of the bishop of Magdeburg made bis own chess board and tuugln bis prison guards to play. Chess Is taught In the schools and the children carry their chess books and their chess boards like cnlldren In the United Stutes carry grammars oi arithmetics and slates, Pupils In the elementary classes In Stroesbeck roust pass an examination In chess and to the winners of the contests the village authorities give prizes chess bourds and pieces. I Chess boards are painted on the bouses, Inside and out, the dining ta Vies and the sitting room tables' In nearly all bomes are cbess boardt themselves, and even the decorations 'oa the walls of tbe bouses are draw 'lugs or pulntlngs of "some great game" locally, or unusual play of cbeckiuute hv fionin nlnver of rpnnwn Though Stroesbeck bas been playing lues an uivse ceuiunea, aouw ui lis 'citizens has ever attracted more than local fame. But the names of the ,world chess masters are almost sacred here and: the life of each la known to every child. HUMANITY OF JACK LONDON "Two Bits" Sought by Derelict Shone Yellow Under Bright Street . Lights. t I once walked with Jack London through the tenderloin section of Los Angeles, where the fragments of men were huddled. As we stood on the corner an aged vagrant walked up to us as softly as wind blowing over a grave. "Please, mister,' be kaid to Jack, "kin I bave tbe price of a flop?" London stood, bis white shirt open at tbe throat, bis black Windsor tie knotted low on bis breast, a faint wvary smile playing over his band some face. "Sure," be said, "here's two bits. The vagrant's scrawny band clutched at tbe coin, wblcb shone yel low tinder tbe light "That Isn't a quarter, mister, It's five bucks." "No, it han't." answered Jack, con fused; "take It and beat It, or I'll call a cop." - - Tbe derelict tottered quickly down i RICKENBACKER MOTOR COMPANY i YESTERDAY kenty years ago the automobile was almost an unknown Quantity: today it psolute necessity.
