The exact period ot the introduc

but it was certainly in use on the
continent of Europe earlier than the
thirteen tb century. It was about this
period that the Instruments in use
ceased to be the horns of the ox or
the aurochs and were again made of
metal, like the ancient military trum
pets of the Greeks and Romans. In
the fourteenth century they were made
sometimes of ivory and even of crys

TRIUMPH
A WOMAN
BOOMER
By M. QUAD
Copyright, 1911. by Associated Lit
erary Press.
Farmer Lee was by no means a hay
seed of a man. He read the papers
and magazines and was not so far be
hind the date. The great mistake he
made was in a certain line of reason
ing. When he read the alluring ad
vertisement promising stupendous div
idends in this or that he reasoned that
unless the advertisers were honest men
they would not make such statements
and that the postal faws stood between
him and. a swindle. He also, reasoned
that his newspaper would refuse to
publish anything that bad a suspicious
look.
It therefore came about that the
farmer, after breaking his back with
hard work for forty years and having
secured comfort for his old age. Invest
ed In a fake and was badly skinned.
He worried over the matter for a cou
ple of years and then died. Mrs. Lee
was not of a confiding nature and had
been opposed to the investments. She
was left the farm, a portion of which
lay in the village of Dover, but her
days for hard work had gone by. She
van things after a fashion, but the time
came when she had to think of mort
gaging a portion of the property. She
bad become soured and Imbittered and
had few friends. .- .
One day the Widow Lee might have
been seen entering the office of the
Weekly Tribune, to which she had
been a subscriber for long years. The
widow and the editor had a long talk
and shook bands on it The result was
that the next issue of the Tribune con
tained the following:
"We learn on good authority that our
town is to have a big hotel for sum
mer visitors. That's what we have
been looking for for years something
to start a boom."
The next issue of the paper said:
"We understand that the Widow Lee
Is to have forty acres of her farm plat
ted into lots, and the cheapest one
among them will be held at $50."
The town was buzzing when the
Tribune announced:
"If Dover is lucky enough to get the
Higham Military school we shall be in
clover. A brickyard will be opened,
and there will be work for our masons,
carpenters, painters and laborers for
the next two years. After that every
thing our farmers can raise will find
a cash market. The price of real es
tate is advancing."
No one had bought or sold as yet, but
all were on the ragged edge when the
Tribune calmly announced: v
"We have heard rumors that the D.
and H. railroad is thinking of running
a spur line to Dover now that there
is a prospect of its being a paying in
vestment. We are investigating the
rumors and hope to find them true."
Nothing to thrill, and yet the people
thrilled. Real estate jumped 50 per
cent, and up went the price on the
widow's lots again. Twenty or thirty
strangers arrived daily and wanted to
buy or rent. The Dover inn did more
business in a week than it had ever
done in any three months. It was
while Doverites and strangers were
tumbling over each other with 'fresh
rumors three or four times a day that
the Tribune said:
"If the Sunshine Harvester company
comes here with its 2,500 men and an
acre of factory the problem will be
where to find the land to build cot
tages on. The 200 or more lots owned
by the Widow Lee will not be a tenth
of those demanded. Bills will appear
tomorrow announcing an auction of
these lots, and it goes without saying
that the bidding will be spirited and
the prices high. All the rest of the
farm may go under the hammer at tie
same time. The report that we are to
have a factory here for the building of
automobiles has sent real-estate soar
ing." The auction took place as advertised.
There was a good crowd, and the bid
ding was all that could be hoped for.
Not only the lots went, but the farm
as well, and those who got any sort
of parcel of real estate were considered
lucky.
Neither on the next day nor the next
was the Widow Lee seen to enter the
office of the Tribune. In fact she
never entered.it again. The "whack
up'' took place at her own bouse, and
both parties to it seemed eminently
satisfied. In a day or two the woman
headed for Illinois, and a week later
the editor of the Tribune came out
with the announcement:
"In retiring from the Tribune we
wish to bespeak the good will and pat
ronage of all Doverites for the new ed-'
itor and proprietor, Solomon Griggs,
a newspaper man of many years'
standing. The paper will still be In
dependent in politics and still receive
all kinds of green and dry wood and
knots and stumps on subscription. It
will also take store trade on advertis
ing. "Many of our beloved subscribers
will ask why "we have sold out and
are on the point of departing from
their midst ' We answer that a cher
ished aunt died a few days ago and
left us a legacy and that we have re
ceived a call higher up."

story that may be said to point to an

Collegiate, Meet a "Nerve" Effort
High Strung Man Will Almost Al
ways Beat Phlegmatic One,
One of the best football and baseball
coaches In the country recently stated
that he would rather have his men
nervous than cold. -
"The combination.", said he, "is too
much for most men, but nervousness in
Itself is not a drawback, to my mind.
I like athletes with imagination and
temperament It la their imagination
that gives them stage fright, bnt it is
also their imagination that ultimately
leads them to do almost the impossible
when the great test comes. It is of
especial value in games in which the
men come into physical contact, like
football, baseball, basket ball and la
crosse. The first contact with the
player of the opposing team usually
settles the stage fright unless the man
is hopeless, and after that he has his
nerve,' not his nerves, to fall back
upon."
"Suppose," he was asked, "you were
able to use autosuggestion on your
team suppose your team went Into ac
tion absolutely cool and self, confi
dent?" "Nothing In it," he replied. "It may
be all right for actors, although I have
known not a few who always suffered
from stage fright This is the way I
want my men to feel I want them to
imagine what will happen if they
make a mistake, but 1 also want them
to imagine themselves making a great
run for a touchdown, or kicking a goal
from the field, or something like that
There are times, of course, when It
has not worked both ways, but in the
end the right temperament for the
American athlete is the nervous tem
perament." pari Palmer Example.
One of the best examples of the Ideal
athletic temperament was that of Carl
Palmer, the Yale distance runner of
years ago. who was entered in the
three mile run in the Yale-Harvard-Oxford-Cambridge
games in England.
Palmer was built like a -thoroughbred
and had the temperament that goes
with the build. Off the field he was a
restless chap, interested in many col
lege activities, a good student and in4
deed high strung in every way, Be
fore he arrived in England he had
never run- three miles in his life, and
his time for two miles had been noth
ing out of the ordinary.
On the day of the games, he sat in
the grass Inclosure '.waiting for his
event, the. last on the program. . Be
side him sat Workman, the veteran
English distance man, for whom the
three mile was expected to be a walk
over. Palmer was young, impression
able and friendly and requested that
Workman give him his blazer In ex
change for Parmer's Yale sweater so
that both would have souvenirs of the
meeting.
Workman favored him with a glassy
stare, and in an instant the American
was no longer chilly and worried, but
thoroughly angered by the rebuff. In
that moment the young runner deter
mined to give the older man the race
of his life.
There were two Englishmen in the
race to make the "pace for Workman
and two Harvard men to do as much
for Palmer. They went to the scratch
with the result of the meet hanging on
the result, of the race the race be
tween the mature English champion
and the slender American boy who had
never run three miles in his life. Palm
er determined that he would cling to
Workman like a burr, even if it meant
that he was to be run into the ground.
The Harvard men could not hold the
pace and dropped out Palmer ran the
two pacemaking Englishmen off their
feet although it cost him dearly to do
so. "At the two mile' mark," he said
afterward, "I almost prayed that some
body would throw a stick between my
legs and upset me. But a little farther
on I came to and was glad that I bad
held together so far."
Nerve Put Him First. .
At the two and a half mile mark it
was the Englishman wWo was worried.
He put on speed and drew away for
twenty yards only to hear the steady
pounding behind him draw up again.
So they turned into the last quarter
with Workman only about three yards
to the good. Now, the temperament
of the American boy told, for, al
though he had traveled so far faster
than ever before in his athletic career,
he made his first challenge for the lead
on pure "nerve." Men who saw the
finish of that race will never forget it.
Palmer challenged six times In the
stretch and six times could not quite
gst the lead.. The odds were a shade
too great, but he had run a race such
as is seen only once oiytwice in a dec
ade. Both of the runners were in a dead
faint after the race. Weeks afterward"
Workman and Palmer were the best
of friends, and the Englishman told the
American that for the first time in his
running career he had been pressed so
closely as to feel actual fear that he
would be beaten. " When he crossed the
line he was not even sure that he had
won, for he was running "blind."
TRAIN THE MIND.
If we work upon marble it will
perish, if we work upon brass time
will efface it, if we rear temples
they will crumble into dust, but if
we work upon immortal minds, if
we imbue them with principles, with
the just fear of God and love of our
fellow men, we engrave on those
tablets something which will brighten
to all eternity. Daniel Webster.

Talks.
By EDWIN A.NYE.
REMARRIED.
This Is a true story of John and
Wary.
Husband and wife, they came into
the old squire's office and asked that
papers of separation be drawn up.
"Why, what's the matter. Mary?"
"Well, you see, judge, Jobu is not a
bad man, but he will not consult-me
about things. He goes ahead and buys
Btuff because it's cheap. And there is
the mortgage. I'm afraid we'll lose the
farm. .
"He goes to public sales, judge, and
buys old crowbait horses and harnesses
and wornout fanning mills and bob
sleds. He always bids, and they are
always knocked off to him."
"How about it, John?" .
"Well, now, judge, I contend I'm the
head of the. family. I don't want no
woman mixing up in my business. 1
don't think it's a woman's place. Do
you, judge?"
The squire pondered.
"John, will you let me talk to you In
a very plain manner?"
"Sure, squire."
' "John, you have a very sensible wife,
and you ought to be proud of her. She
works hard and Is just as anxious to
get on in the world as you are. Mary
Isn't meddling when she wants to know.
She is your partner and a good one.
"Two heads are better than one,
John, especially if the other head Is
that of a sensible wife. And you know
your weakness Is buying things at pub
lic sales.
"And you, Mary.
"You are a good woman. But you
know, Mary, you got a temper from
your father. And when you get mad
your tongue is pretty sliarp. You nag
John about bis trades when it is too
late to do any good. Then he gets mad
and there Is trouble.
"Now, John and Mary
"I've known you both all your lives
and your people before you. You have
your troubles, but you would be mis
erable apart.
"John and Mary, stand up!
"Join your right bands. By virtue of
the authority vested in me, I command
you, John, to consult your wife about
all your business affairs. And you,
Mary, I command you to be patient
with John and kind. Whom God hath
joined together let not man put asun
der. Amen!"
And the sequel?
That was ten years ago, and John
and Mary get along nicely
