B CHEERFUL.
First and foremost cultivate a cheerful dis
position. Half the ailments that make life
miserable are the result of Imagination.
Osre drives the nails In cur coffin, no doubt.
But mirth, with merry flncera, plucks them out.
The man who breeds ever business care,
magnifies them or allows them te unduly
trouble him is a very foolish one, and Is seen
likely te be a victim of dyspepsia or nervous
prostration. Half the cases of dysjiepsla In
this country are the result of brain worry
and half of them have been aggravated by
the excessive usoef Ice water. The connec
tion between the brain and the stomach Is a
much closer one than Is generally thought.
A few years age n friend of mln, who is n
high official of the Western Union Telegraph
company, a man of nervous, sanguine tem
perament, met me one day and In response te
an Invitation te talce lunch, replied!
"I'd like te, old boy, but I haven't the time.
Ten se busy that I must keep en the jump all
day."
I replied, "Yeu had better call n halt nnd
Itive proper attention te your meets or the
first thing you knew you'll be a confirmed
dyspeptic"
He laughed as he answered while continu
ing his walki "Ne danger of that; I've get a
stomach like an ostrich."
There was danger, however, and It came
sooner than he expected. In less than two
Tears he was net only n victim of ncule dys
pepsia, but his nervous system w as se badly
shattered that he had te glve up business for
several months, go south in the winter, and
devote his whole time te trying te repair his
ff shattered health.
Diet, care and moderate nhvslrail etetvlsA
aV, aided him a great deal, but lie will
never lie vt man he would have been today
had he taken lr.$-,advlce; and, besides, he
would have dene deui Je the amount of work

light dumb bells, never let them exceed two
pounds In weight, and exercise w ith them, net
until you are tired, never go that far with
any exercise, but until you nre perspiring.
Then divest yourself of your garments In a
room where no draft will affect j ou and rub
yourself as dry as possible with Reed towels,
net tee coarse nor tee fine In texture. When
all the moisture has been abserljed and you
feel dry and cooled down, take a bath. If
you have no bath tub handy, a large Songe
and a basin or bucket of water will lx sutU
dent Bath veryquicklyanddry thoroughly.
Then rub yourself down well with the palms
cf your hands, always rubbing dew n or w ith
the grain.
This, I believe, Is the "laying en of hands,"
which Scripture tenches us was se clllcacleus
in the geed old days of the prophets. After
you have rubbed und slapicd and kneaded
yourself thoroughly until all the electricity
in your system is aroused put en dry clothes,
eat your breakfast and go te your business.
Eat your lunch at your regular time and do de
vote net less than half an hour te the i cpnst
I mean devote thirty minutes te eating it.
After your day's work is done, dismiss it ns
much as possible from your mind. Or, if you
cannot de that, think of it in a cheerful
"mood and resolve te de the scry best that
brain and muscle can de in the cas and let
it go at that. Refrain from excessive use of
stimulants of all kinds, Streng cigars are
noxious and cigarettes are abominable.
WALK TO BCSIXEKS IF YOU CAN.
If your place of business Is net tee far
from jour home, and the sun Is cot tee het,
walk home. A two mile walk in the open
air is very beneficial. De net "sprint" in
your walking, but merely walk briskly at
hnes. If, in the het days of summer, you
feel unusually thirsty, gargle your mouth
freely with water, net tee cold, and after
you have dens this, swallow merely a mouth
ful or two of the water, Better still, at

'AULONE, THE NEW ATHLETIC GAME
It Wilt tlardlv Take the ftace of Tennis,
Thniish II Is a Geed One.
Pallonaccle, according te the Italian dic
tionary, signifies "a large football," whilst
pallene has the snme meaning in addition te
its also standing for "air balloon."
It is with pallene as a foettiall that wa
have te deal, and that Is the name of the
game which is coming rapidly Inte fashion.
The general idea people of our country
form of Italians does net suggest that they
are players of athletie games, and It Is only
these who have seen them in their own coun
try who knew that beneath that apparent
eternal search for the dolce far nlente there
Is n vast deal of energy nnd vivacity, which
breaks out In their sportive moods.
It will surprise most people te be told that
te the Italians we nre In reality Indebted for
our tennis, racket, lawn tennis and (Ives, and
that pallone, the game from which all spring,
Is the connecting link between the crude ball
games of the ancients and the gemes wn at
present amuse ourselves with. The racket
wasdovclepod out of n glove, and nil the
large ball games played by the Remans by
being struck with the arm protected by a
bracer, piecUcly as the game new about te
be described Is plated.
Te play pallone properly an open sir court
Is, needed of smooth and level surface. It
should be nbeut 000 feet In length, with lines
marked upon Itustipennlnnn tennis ground.
The court should lie, east and west, and along
Its whele length there must bon wall of about
thirty feet In height The game being a sum
mer recreation, the court should Hi east anil
west se that the nail will threw n shadow by
which the plovers are protected. I'allene
can be played without this wall, but It is net
then the perfect gnmc, since thn "Iteastlng"
that can lx accomplished "oil" It is very
important
The court Is divided Inte two unequal
parts, ene being ten feet longer than the
ether. At the very extreme end of this,
what Is called In battuta (platform) is
placed, nnd when the court Is properly con
structed this Is en the western side. On this
side planks are placed, one end of each plank
being elevated from the court, after the fash
ion of a spring heard.
The ball is a large one, weighing twelve
ounces, and erfeetly inflated, se that it is
ery lively In movement nnd lelxmnd. The
Inflation is a point of the utmost Importance,
as any "dcndnifts " is destruct Ive te the game.
In Italy, during the progress of n game of
pallene, assistants known ns pallenari ere
constantly busied In lullating balls net in use,
because the violence of the blows cry seen
deadens their vitality,
The ball Is struck by nn Instrument known
as the bincclale, n stout wooden cylinder
having nt ene end a cress piete, which is
grasped by ' hand after the forearm hat

covered with faceted studdthat get it grip

FINE RECORD OP DAN BR0UTHER8
Mike Kelly the Most Graceful natter In
thn league llnw natty Ansen Gained
an Adrentate by Taking His Ta's Ad
vice tleger Cenner Other Hatter.
Less than a dozen men have attained the
distinction of becoming great baUmen, says
T. H. Mumane In The Bosten Glebe. It Is
very Interesting te watch the men as they
stand at the plate. Undoubtedly the greatest
of all these is Adrian C. Ansen, cnptnln of
the Chlcnge club. He has been en the field
as a professional eighteen years, and was al
ways among the leading batsmen of the coun
try. He has led that leading organization
several times, nnd bas the best general aver aver
age for ten years. Ansen Is a scientific bat
ter and seldom strikes out He Is one of the
best sacrifice hitters In the country, and can
be counted en for n timely hit
AN801.
Until 1870 Ansen caught his hat nbeut six
Inches from the handle. His iosltlen at the
plate was easy and natural jttnndlng straight
as n ptne troe, with his right feet crossed en
tbe heal of his left, ha called for a high ball
Ansen clalmml that by taking held of his bat
up short he bad better control of It when
saectlng the ball. After he joined the
Chicago club in TO his father, who is a great
lever of the game and wns a geed plajer
himself at the time the present captain was a
schoolboy, ndvlsed his buy, ns he still calls
him, te take his club like, a man and get the
wbole force of It en the bell. The advice was
ngivcable, and slnce then this great player
has smashed nw ay nt curses and Inshoets
with his bat caught nt the extreme end of the
handle. Ansen new faces the pitcher with
his heels clese together, and Is ene of the best
styled men nt the bat in the League,
liiteirriicns.
Dan Ilreuthers, of the Ilosten club, Is con
sidered by many the greatest slugger In the
League. Dan gees te the bat te hit the bell,
and few men can sUe up a pitcher as he can.
He stands next te Ansen en general nvcrage,
and taking this season's nerage Dan Is a
shade nhad of thn Clilcjige captain. Ilreu
theis Is n left hand luitsinan ami his position
nt the Iiat is net as
clean ns Ansen's.
Dan gets clese te
the pinto with his
feet well apart, and
snt firm. Unlike
Ansen, who cracks
the plate with his
bat te sea If it's
sound, Dan keeps
swinging his li a t
back anil forth. It's
n rnre thing te tee
him let go nnd miss
n ball, nml as for
slriki n c out. Its
HAN IIIIOUIIIKIIS.
something a pitcher is always proud of If he
cm ncveiupllsh It during a season. This man
can hit n high or low ball, and will seldom let
go nt ena out of Ills reach. Fielders never
knew hew te piny for him, ns he Isjmt ns
likely te hit te i Ight ns he is te left Held. Like
Ansen, llieutlivm would remain en thefitld
nil day hitting, If hn could get someone te
toss him the bill, He swings his liedy, nnd
wluu be dues catch the ball squni ene mim
ciuidrhe ene further.
CONVOR,
Heger Cenner, the first baseman of the
New Yerk club, ranks with Ansen and
Ilreuthers, and, like them, has led the Lengue.
Cenner Is it left hnud bntsuiau, but can turn
aieuud when n.tatiist n left hand pitcher nnd
hit Mien ivsf ully right handed. Cenner Is ene
of the sluggirs of the I.eagun, and comes next
te llreuthcis ns it plajer with it high general
as era go.
luier's position nt thn bat Is something like
Ilreuthers only that he bends his body ever
the plate and srMchcs the pitcher much closer;
his hitting is mostly te rjght field. He iims n
scrj heavy bat, ami IlkeMust heavy hllteis

When It wns son plajer could call for a
high or low ball, Alisen ctlled for n high one,
Hi outliers and Cenner for low ones. As
shown in tliacut, the prettiest K)sitien at the
bat is taken by Miku Killy, of the Hest ens,
nnd is much the same as Ansen's. This player
has led the Ix-ague ene craseu nt the lut, nml
fei the la ten years has liven iinieng the

wiLts, and hits a ball sery easy. He can lilt

the way he hits, often missing the ball by
seveial feet Tbeyeung pitchers never knew
where te find Kelly, nnd If they try te pitch
for him thny will find him at times out of the
box altogether. This is when heh is a pitcher
covered and w ants te get his base ou balls.
He uses a heavy stick, well seasoned.

William, ttter known as "Duck" Ewlng,
captain of the New Yerk team, Is one of the
most scientific Ivttsmen in the country. Hit
great forte is hitting te right Held. His po

Dickey Johnsten, of the Uosten club, is one of
the very tinniest hitters in the Lt'.igue.

was known us "Heme Kuu" Johnsten. He
stands clese te the plate and 3ixu Vui an in in in

One of America's Greatest Com

Ills Favorite Characters Busts of 8U
bert and Beeth Presented te the Flay

The Inte Jehn Gilbert had probably as
strong a held en the American theatre going
public as any actor ever has had. Hs was a
comedian of the first water, and his audiences
regarded him as few actors have been re
garded in this country.
THE OtLOEHT CCST.
Mr. Gilbert's career was se long a one that
even a catnlogue of his engagements would
be tee voluminous for n theit sketch. In
1603 he joined Wallack's company in New
Yerk and remained in that city during the
rest of his professional life.
Of the many characters which he took he
preferred Sir Peter Teazle, Sir Antheny Ab
solute, LerdOglcby, Jehn Thernbcrry and
Old Dornton. The fame of his Sir Antheny
Absolute entitles It te be placed et the bead
of the list It U difficult te believe that the
choleric old Englishman ever bad a better
representative, Uis flgure, his face and his
veice fitted the part exactly; the naturalness
of his cholerle outbursts Mas extraordinary;
the dryness of his humor perfect, and his
nbolecarringo nn abselute reproduction of
the old time manner.
His Sir Peter was a companion piece of
nlmest equal merit, but inferior. It svas a
little deficient In polish. The Ideal Sir Peter
ought te have an air mero courtly than that
which Mr. Gilbert imparted te hlra; but per
haps even this objection Is open te the charge
of bypercrltlclsm. Uy way of contrast with
the explosive Sir Antheny take Old Dornton,
in "The Rend te Huln." Ne mero perfect
plcture of probity, bene- olence and tender
ness could be Imagined. Theio is almost as
much pathos in the old man's honest out
bursts of indignation as in his moments et
forgiveness aud reconciliation.
During the early days of his career Mr.
Gilbert appeared In New Orleans. Ile has
related an Incident that occurred during his
stay In the Cresent city.
He had been assigned te the important role
of Sir Frederick Vernen in "Ileb Hey." He
knew his lines perfectly, but when he went
ujien the stage and attempted te speak he
could net utter a word. The air grew black
nnd he beenme fnlnt nlmett te the point et
falling. Then the nudience began te hiss.
This, In a measure, restored him te his senses,
but nt best he could only mumble through
the part, and he retired from the scene dis
heartened nnd mortified. It ts sold te be the
first nnd only time during his long enreer
that he ever forget his part or was hissed by
an audience.
Immediately afteruard horcdeemod him
self by the ndmlrable manner in which he
acted nn old man, a very strong part, In a
pioce called "The May Queen," and it was en
this occasion that the natural lcnt of his tal
ent wns first displayed. Thereafter he ap
peared constantly lu the characters of old
men, and made rapid advances iu professional
reputation. Fer llve j ears lie tra cled in the
south nud southwest, undergoing discomforts
nnd nul.Ing shifts of which even the modem
bnru stenucr has but the faintest conception,
but constantly adding te his experience and
self cenPdcncv, until he finally made his way
back agnin te Uosten nnd procured an en
gagement at the Tremont theatre.
