The bnt, which wns no round stick, such ns Is now used, but n stout pnddle with a blndo two Inches thick nnd four inches wide with a convenient hundlo dressed on to It, wns the chosen nrblter. Ono of the lenders spnt on the side of this bnt, which wns honestly enlled "the pnddle," nnd nsked the lender of the opposition forces, "Wet or dry?" The pifddle wns then sent whirling up in the nlr, nnd when it cnine down which ever side won went to the bnt, while the others scattered over the field. The bnll wns not whnt would be called a "Nntlonnl lengue bnll" nowa dnys, but It served every purpose. It wns nstinlly mnde on the spot by some boy offering up his woolen socks ns an oblation, nnd these were rnvejed and wound round n bullet, n hnndful of strips cut from n rubber overshoe, n piece of cork or nlmost anything or nothing, when nnything wns not avail able The winding of this bnll wns nn art, nnd whoever could excel in this art wns looked upon ns a superior be ing. The bnll must bo n perfect sphere and the threads ns regulnrly lnld as the wire on the helix of a magnetic annntnre. When the winding wns com plete the surfnee of the bnll wns thor oughly sewed with a hirgo needle nnd thrend to prevent It from unwinding when a thread wns cut. The diamond wns not nrbltrnrily marked off ns now. Sometimes there were four bnses and sometimes six or seven. They were not equidistant, but were mnrked by any fortuitous rock or shrub or depression In the ground where the steers were wont to bellow nnd paw up the earth. Ono of theso tellnrlnl cnvltles wns al most sure to be selected ns "the den," now called the Home pinto. There were no masks or mitts or protectors. There wns no science or chlcnnory, now called "hendwork." The strapping young onfs, embryonic teachers, presi dents nnd premiers were too honest for this. The pitcher was tho one who could throw a bnll over the "den," and few could do this. Ills object wns to throw a bnll thnt could be hit. The puddlemnn's object wns to hit the bnll, nnd if he struck nt It which be need not do unless he chose and missed it tho catcher, standing well bnck, tried to catch It nfter it hud lost Its momentum by striking tho earth once and bounding in the air "on the first bounce" it wns culled and if he succeeded tho paddlemnn was "dead," and another took his plnce. If he struck it nnd it wns not caught in the field or elsewhere in the air or "on the bounce," ho could strike twice more, but the third time ho was compelled to run. There was no umpire and very little wrangling. There wns no effort to pounce upon a bnse runner and touch him with the bnll. Any one hay ing it could throw it at him, and if It bit him he was "dead" almost literal ly sometimes. If he dodged the ball, be kept on running until the "den" was reached. Some of the players became proficient In "ducking, dodging and Bide stepping, and others learned to throw tho ball with the accuracy of a rlflebullet. No matter how many players were on a Bido, euch and every one had to be put out, and If the lust ono made three successive homo runs he "brought In the side," nnd tho outfielders, pitchers and catcher had to do all their work over again. The boy who could "bring In his side" wns a hero. No victorious general was ever prouder or moro lauded. Horutlua at the bridge was small potatoes in comparison. He was the uncrowned king. There were no foul bits. If a ball touched the puddle ever so lightly, it wus a tick, and three ticks mnde a compulsory run. The score wus kpt by some one cutting notches in a stick, and the runs dur ing an afternoon ran into the hun dreds. If the ball was lost In the grass or rolled undor a Scotch thistle, the cry "Lost ball!" wns raised and the fame stopped until it was found. Cln rinnutl Commercial Tribune. What n Lie Did.

Great Is the human makeup, and great are Its chameleonlike qualities In the wny of expressing feeling. Writ ers from time immemorial have taught us what to expect from the different colors thnt flit across our countenances, nd, of course, writers are never wrong. Here are some of the lightning chro nintlc ehnnges thnt we all have grown to recognixe, and there are several counties yet to be henrd from: A ninn turns green with envy, yel low with hatred, purple with rnge, achrlet with anger, white from fenr, pink from excitement, snfTron from sickness, black from torture, red from heat nnd blue from cold. ' Sometimes, too, he Is "cold ns steel," "hot ns blnzes," "cool ns a riieiinilier," "a warm proposition," "hard as binss," "soft as mush," "smooth ns a board," "a rough customer" and "a slick ar ticle."

Philadel phia Telegrnph. Physical Coltore. It is a mistake to think that excessive physical exercise la beneficial. The op posite is tho fact. As some one has said. "Mnn is not constructed to be a running nnd leaping animal, like a deer or ent." To cmphnslze bodily develop ment nbove the mentnl development Is a step toward resumption of the life of the snvnge and lower animals. Phys ical culture Is a desirable thing; but, ns In everything else, the extremes nre to be avoided. A person mny have too lit tle bodily exercise and mny also have fnr too much or violent exorcise. Ono who is walking a considerable part of the day would need but little else ns exercise except, perhaps, calisthenics for the arms, back and chest nnd on retiring or rising. And the snme ad vice is applicable to a woman who does her own housework. Hut one confined over a desk or typewriter should make a conscientious habit of walking, bicy cling and calisthenics every day for an hour or thereabouts. Cincinnati Tribune. Wanted Bread Mad Courage. One day, riding along the road, Gen eral Gordon came upon a regimental prnyer meeting, which wns very Im pressive. The men were kneeling or standing with bowed beads about the chaplain, who wns praying in a voice of wonderful enmpnss. The general chocked his horse and re moved his hat nnd waited for the end of the prnyer. The cbapluln asked the Lord to give the men of Lee's army su preme courage to meet the great crisis that had come upon them, fortitude to bear new privations and troubles, strength to fight against the pursuing enemy. Just then a tall private rose from his knees and shouted to the chap lain: "Pray for bread, chaplain; pray for bread! We have courage to spare, bt)t to fight we must have something to eat Pray for bread!" This broke up the prayer meeting. The Coster's Cnrl. Many cast London barbers, who have been Journeymen in muny west end es tablishments, declare that young cos termongers nnd barmen, with the po cullar rolling curl that protrudes from under tho cup or bowler, aro fnr more portlculur about their hair than the sons of the aristocracy in general. This same curl, standing forth from a surface of hair t'.iat seems to havo been flntlroned, is not achieved with out much trouble. Scores of theso young dandies of tho east subscribe to a "toilet club" and have weekly atten tion given to their distinguishing curl in a manner that might be expected of a patrician beau.

What is the difference between secy log your own finish and drawing your own conclusions V . Shipping Waa Prescribe at One Time For Inannltr nnd Fits. Ill health Is a bad thing at any time, but 100 years ago It was made more terrible by the remedies In use. Blood letting, of course, was a simple affair. A writer In Macmlllan's Magazine says thnt everybody was bled twice a year In the spring nnd autumn. The bar bers were the surgeons and, like wise men, adapted their prices to their pa tients. A gentleman who so Indulged him self ns to go to bed to bo bled was charged half a crown nnd his line lady half a sovereign. Certain days were unlucky for bloodletting, nnd nothing would Induce the barbers to operate on these occnslons. Serious disenses seem to hnve been beyond the medical akill of the dny. Villages and towns simply drove out the Infected from their midst. Among remedies herbs of course played a grent part. "For salves," runs nn old notebook which had a great vogue, "the country parson's wife seeks not the city nnd prefers her gar den nnd fields before all outlandish gums." Snge wns held a very grent medicine. It was even nsked In Latin, "Why should any one die who has snge In his garden?" If any one had a dis ease of the mouth, the Eighth Psalm should be rend for three dnys, seven times on each day. As a remedy it was "sovereign." For Insanity or fits whipping was prescribed. Little wonder thnt mor tnllty wns great. In old dnys In Wes sex, F.nglnnd, persons with Infectious disenses were confined In the lockup, nnd whipping was deemed too good for them. Should the sick be loud In la ment, the wntchmnn kept them quiet by this popular discipline, nnd one town hns upon Its records, "Pnld T. Haw kins for whipping two people that bad the smallpox elgbtpence." Fortunntely the spirit of this age Is different from thnt 'THE SLEEPLESS ARCH." Old Hindoo Principle the Bnsla of All Modern Bridges. Although the building of grent arches of masonry dates beyond the ancient Bomnn civilization, the principle that gives strength to the massive stone bridges of todny Is the snme that built the bridges of the Roman empire. The history of bridge building is, to a Inrge degree, the history of the arch, whose efficiency lies In the truth of the old Hindoo Buying that "the arch never sleeps" because each separate section of which It consists, beginning at tbe keystone, or central section, is con stantly pushing against Its Immediate neighbors until the pressure finally reaches the firm foundation upon which the structure Is erected. 'i'o secure a perfectly trustworthy foundation, therefore, the bridge build er bus often to penetrate far below tbe surface of the earth, and not infre quently the part of his structure thus covered, up nnd concenled Is greater than thnt visible above ground. It wns their inability to solve the problem of a trustworthy foundation thnt led the ancient Hindoos to dis trust the arch, arguing thnt the sleep less activity thnt held It together was equally active in tearing it to pieces. Not only is the modern bridge builder stilled in setting bis structure on a firm base, but thoroughly acquainted with tho timo honored materials for his work, to say nothing of new ma terials, and an Important part of his student training In such modern schools as the Massachusetts Institute of Tech nology Is devoted to methods of test ing materials during construction that would have surprised and delighted even the most accomplished of the an cient Roman engineers.
