The mistake Is in thinking that all
poetry is for all readers. On the con
trary the realm of poetry Is as wide
as the world, for the very-reaBon that
each man may find there Just what
he needs and leave the rest. The
thing Is to discover the poetry that
was meant for us, and perhaps the
best way to do that is to turn over the
pages of some well-made selection,
and see where our eyes get caught
and held. Richard Le Gallienne.

The Vast World.
A student of Erfurt, desiring to see
Nuremberg, departed with a friend on
a Journey thither. Before they had
walked half a mile, he asked his com
panion whether they should soon get
to Nuremberg, and was answered:
" 'Tis scarce likely, since we have only
Just left Erfurt." Having repeated the
question another half mile farther on,
and getting the same answer, he said:
"Let's give up the Journey and go
back, since the world's so vast!"

Ai it was I had
hardly strength at
times to be on my

effort I could not sleep at night and
of course felt very bad in the morning,
and had steady headache.
"After taking the second bottle 1 uu
ticed that the headache was not so bad,
I rested better, and my nerves were
stronger. I continued its use until it
made a new woman of me, and now I
can hardly realize that I am able to do

Dummy Figures Used as Batter
and Catcher.
Really Ingenious Device That Seems
to Have Practical Points Elec
tricity Is the Motive Power
of the "Players."
A machine for practicing baseball.
devised by an Ohio inventor, has two
life-size figures that take the part of
batter and catcher. An electric motor
puts "life" into their movements. Rods,
levers, Joints and springs contained
within the bodies of the dummies
cause them to maintain automatically
The Baseball-Playing Dummies and
the Mechanism That Makes Them
Work.
their end of the game as batter and
catcher. Here is how it is done:
In the abdomen of the catcher dum
my is a plate which when hit by the
baseball thrown by the player who is
practicing closes an electric circuit
and causes a bell or buzzer 4o ring.
The catcher's arms and hands are
mounted to move in and out on a hori
zontal plane. The batter, on the other
hand, moves his bat up and down.
To practice with this machine you
take a position about sixty feet from
the dummy batter and throw at his
bat, which extends over the home
plate; if the bat is hit, you can Jot
down one on the score card. Or, land
the ball in the abdomen of the catcher,
hit the registering plate and ring the
electrio bell, and a strike is credited
you. If the ball hits the batter or
catcher elsewhere than Intended, a
foul is counted.
The inventor insists that the dum
mies are not unlike natural persons in
performing their functions, although
some players might not approve of
the mode of "catching" the ball de
scribed.
Rostand on the War.
In a delightful corner of the Pyre
nees a number of temporary hospitals
have been established. Quite often a
certain visitor of note comes to these
little hospitals, bringing to the wound
ed some small comforts, among which
are tobacco, cigarettes and chocolate.
He is clothed as a common soldier, al
though he wears hanging from his
neck the cross of a commander of the
Legion of Honor. This is Monsieur
Edmond Rostand, poet and playwright,
the hermit of Cambo, who thus pre
fers the uniform of an Infantryman
to the flannel Jacket of the mountain
proprietor or even the green coat of an
"Immortai." Not all of his "clients"
know who Is this distinguished visitor.
One of them describes him as "a man
who has not much hair on his head
and writes pieces." M. Rostand has
become fat. Our soldiers are getting
fat. All the letters from the front
certify this. M. Rostand has done like
wise and has done well. Le Crl de
Paris.
Spooning Is Defined.
"Spooning" in the public play
grounds of Pittsburgh is to end If
plans of W. F. Ashe, superintendent of
the new city bureau of recreation are
put through. Instead, dances under
proper supervision and other healthful
social activities will be carried out.
"What is understood as spooning,"
Mr. Ashe says, "is Justifiable only
when it is the expression of the love
of a man for the woman who is to
become his wife or the woman for the
man who is to become her husband.
In young boys and girls it should be
discouraged. We shall have choral so
cieties for the boys and girls. Danc
ing and music will provide the sub
stitute for spooning."
Mall From a Shipwreck.
Echoes of the tragic fate of the Em
press of Ireland still come over the
waters. For example, a lady who was
at the time visiting in Canada wrote
to her sister In England. The letter
never arrived, but the sister came
back In due course. And now. all nn-
expectedly, her missive has been de
livered, stamped with the words: "Re
covered by divers from the wreck of
the Empress of Ireland." It speaks
well for the quality of the mall bags
when one says that the letter shows
scarcely any trace of Its eight months'
Immersion in the bed of the St Law
rence. Pall Mall Gazette.
With Precaution Lacking.
The Chicago bureau of safety tells
how men blasting a stump broke a
charged light wire on a pole. The
wire fell to the ground. The foreman
sent a man to the lighting company
to order the necessary repairs, but did
not place a guard over the wire. A
man took bold of the wire and was
killed.
"Safety first" requires that thought
ful precautions should be takes to
avoid such fatalities.
HAIN'T GEORGE WASHINGTON
Apocryphal Story Told of Col. George
Harvey Not Remembered as
Peacham Boy.
A story apocryphal, perhaps, but
at any rate timely is going the
rounds of Park Row about Col. George
Harvey, the editor.
Colonel Harvey, according to this
story, visited his native Peacham a
short time after his first brilliant New
York success, and, on a cold winter
morning, entered the Peacham gen
eral store. But nobody, to his sur
prise, knew him.
Colonel Harvey, seated with the
Peacham veterans around the hot
stove, could not resist telling one or
two of his minor metropolitan suc
cessessuccesses which the Peacham-
ites beard in a cold silence.
"And I, too, am a Peacham boy," Bald
Colonel Harvey. "Yet nobody remem
bers me here. Strange!"
He turned warmly to an old man
with red chin whiskers striped with
gray.
"You," he said, "are George Slo
cum." He turned to another old man who
had very large, white, even false
teeth:
"You are George R. Boone," he
said.
Then he turned to the whole circle
of veterans round the stove and cried
Impulsively:
"Somebody, surely, must remember
my name. Come now, think! It's
George George George "
"Wall, Jedgin' from them tales ye
bin a-givin' us," snorted an old fellow
In gum boots, "I reckon It hain"t
George Washin'ton, nohow."
Resourceful.
Blondine Gerty Giddygad is the
most resourceful girl I know.
Brunetta In what way?
"The other day the young man she
is trying to land for a husband called
her attention to a spot of powder on
her nose."
"Well, well"
" 'And Gerty said: 1 always do that
every time I eat marshmallows.'"
Why She Changed.
Visitor Why, Aunt Chloe, I'm sur
prised to see that you have discarded
your corncob pipe and taken to chew
ing tobacco.
Aunt Chloe Yes, chile, ah had to.
Ah dun got afeard dat ah might get
mistaken foh one ob dem brainless
New York society women ef ah didn't
gib up smokin. Puck.
Locating the Injury.
Uncle John permitted Jamie to dis
charge his old army musket.
When the recoil of the gun nearly
knocked the youngster off his feet,
TJncle John inquired with a grin:
"Did it kick you?"
"No," replied Jamie, "but it gave me
an awful punch in the shoulder."
A Trifle Sore.
"How did you get so muddy?"
"Aw, I was foolish enough to spend
four hours in a damp field trying to
find a four-leaf clover."
"Then you think a four-leaf clovel
will bring one luck?"
"I did. But now I think anybody
lucky enough to find a four-leaf clover
doesn't need any additional luck."

Testing Precious atones.
The science of optics has in the last
year or so given much aid to Jewelers
in making tests that are said to be ab
solutely conclusive as to the nature
of a gem. The refractive index, or the
power of bending light rays, is deter
mined as to precious stones in the
same way as that of the spectacle
lenses which the opticians sell.

More Dire Threat.
There was trouble in the back yard.
Six-year-old Billy had thrown a stone
at a boy in the next yard, who was
making vociferous threats. "If you
throw another stone," he yelled, "I'll
sick my dog on you!" "Huh!" replied
Billy. "If you come into my yard I'll

The Aurora.
The Northern Lights, or Aurora
Dorealls, are caused by the flow ol
positive electricity, off from the earth,
through the icy mlBts or clouds that

connection between the aurora and the
"sun spots."

In some districts of India the east

to leap from their graves, brush the
dust from their bones and proclaim
their readiness to ascend.

NO DOUBT THAT RESINOL
DOES HEAL SICK SKIN
When you know physicians have
prescribed reslnol for 20 years In the
treatment of eczema and other itching,
burning, unsightly skin eruptions, and
have written thousands of reports say
ing: "It Is my regular prescription
for Itching," "Reslnol has produced
brlllant results,' "The result It gave
was marvelous In one of the worst
cases of eciema," etc., etc., doesn't It
make you feel that "this is the treat
ment I can rely on for MY skin
trouble?" The moment reslnol ointment
touches Itching skins, the Itching
"tnjn and healing begins. With the
aid of reslnol soap, it almost always
clears away every trace of eczema,
ringworm, pimples, or other torment
ing eruptions quickly, leaving the skin
:lear and healthy. Sold by all drug
