Young man. you ure a locomotive;
you are a thing that goes by power
Inside of you; you ure maile to go. In
fact, considered as a machine, you are
very far superior to a locomotive. The
maker of a locomotive Is a mun; your
maker is man's .Maker You ure as
different from a horse or an 01 or a
camel as a locomotive In different from
a wbeo I barrow or a cart or a coach.
Now, do you sup'tose that the being
who made you—manufactured your
machine and put iuto it tile motive
power did not make a special road
for you to ruti upon) My idea of re
ligion Is that it is a railroad for a hu
man locomotive and that Just as sure
as It undertakes to run upon a road
adapted ouly to animal power It will
bury Its wheels in the sand, dash Itself
among ro«-ks and come to Inevitable
wreck.—J. O. Holland.

OLD TIME PITCHERS
Some of the Former Stars Who
Won Fame on the Diamond.
THEIR FEATS OF ENDURANCE.
Spalding All Alone Twirled the Old
Boston National* to Victory Four
Ycare In Succession — Radbourne's
Great Record—Some Sad Finishes.
What becomes of nil the great pitch
ers who thrill the baseball populace
for a day? That depends upon the
ant' In which they lived. If a man
won his fame in the period from twen
ty to forty years ago he probably went
back penniless to manual labor whence
ho came, or else he found an early
grave. But If he was fortunate enough
to make his baseball tame within the
last score of years he amy still be
drawing a good salary from some club
treasury. Or he may be enjoying pros
perity as a successful business man.
A. Q. Spalding was one of the few
men who won nation wide fame on
the diamond in the earlier period, was
absolutely unspoiled by It and then fol
lowed It up with even greater fame In
the business world. Spalding Jumped
Into the limelight as a seventeen-year
old boy with the Bockford (111.) club
way back In 18(57. Talk about the en
durance of the modem twirling giants!
Just consider whut this original iron
man did In the early seventies. Dur
ing that period he was a member of
the Boston Nationals, and he won the
league championship for his team four
years In succession. He was Boston's
only pitcher, and he twirled every
game the team played, though In
those days games were scheduled only
every other day and the season was
ahorti r than It Is now.
Old timers love to dwell on tlae prow
ess of Charles Radbourne, who shone
with quite as much brilliance as Spald
ing until consumption cut short his ca
reer. about twenty-live years ago. Rad
bourne was a member of the Provi
dence team, and when Charles Swee
ney deserted that club In midseason
only Radbourne was left for slab work.
But that didn't bother Radbourne, for
he not only Jumped right in and did
all the pitching, but made a new
world's record by winning eighteen
straight games and the championship
for Providence. This gameness, how
ever. cost Radbourne his life, for his
health broke under the strain, which
was generally credited with having
caused his consumption.
From day laborer to the world's pre
mier pitcher and then back again. Is. In
brief, the history of Amos Rusle. who
from 1SS9 to 1804 thrilled the baseball
world. Rusle had a narrow escape
from being cast Into the utter darkness
of oblivion before he could get started.
The first day he entered the big league
he was weighed by Bancroft the man
ager of the Cleveland team, and found
wanting. After watching him pitch
one game Bancroft let him go But
John T. Brush, owner of the Cincinnati
club, had faith In this youngster, gave
him his chance, and suddenly the re
cruit blossomed forth Into the greatest
pitcher of his day. But prosperity and
the applause of the unthinking crowd
were too much for Rusle.
Then there were Tim Keefe and John
Clarkson. about whose respective mer
its the fans are still divided. In 1S88
Keefe won nineteen straight games for
New York, while in 1899 Clarkson
pitched seventy-two games for Boston
winning forty-six of them These two
men. whose exploits were heralded
from one end of the country to the
other, were radically different In tem
perament Clarkson utterly ruined his
health by not taking proper care of
himself and died to an Insane asylum
But Tim Keefe retired with money In
the bank.
Probably more printers' Ink was
used to tell of the exploits of the ec
centric Rube Waddell than any other
baseball player that ever lived. Rube
was always good for a story, no matter
what he did. On the diamond this
man was forever breaking records, first
in Jumping from one team to another
and then by making new strikeout rec
ords. Probably his greatest feat was
when he called in all the outfielders
and then retired the side in order. But
consumption finished his broken down
constitution.
Cy Young belongs to a different
school of pitchers He was a shining
example of baseball longevity founded
upon clean living. This marvelous
man. who broke Into major league
baseball In 1890. pitched every season
for twenty-two years, a record still un
equaled.—Philadelphia Ledger.
The Fragonard Panels.
The celebrated Fragouard panels had
their Inception, it is said, in the lavish
expenditures of the Countess du Barry
They were designed for ber chateau,
but never adorned it, owing to a dls
pute between the painter aud the king's
favorite. Mine, du Barry, notwith
standing her lowly origin, was extreme
ly critical in matters of art and was
dissatisfied with these pictures, which
are among the greatest prizes of the
connoisseurs of today.
Color Blindness.
The ratio of color blind people to
those of normal sight ts about 65 to
1.154. This does not mean that all of
the sixty-five are absolutely color blind,
but that that is the ratio of those who
are more or less affected. Color blind
ness is said to have been discovered by
the famous Dr. Priestley In 1777.
Try to be happy in this present mo
ment and put not oCf being so to a tlma
to come.

and both Sir Joseph Hooker and Al

Lord Lister was eighty-four, while
Lord Kelvin, Herbert Spencer, Vlr

Lee maintains, "sustained intellectual
effort is no bar to longevity." He finds
that seventy years of age forms the
average life of the 1.035 men and wo
men commemorated In the second sup

Biography. Nearly 400 of these died
after their eightieth year, four of them
