Now there are withered facult!'!* o,

which can lose their grip and tven

And a diseaaed faculty can impair the
strength of the entire life. It can
check our spiritual progress, and !m

The faculty of love can bo a with

Love Is die great "open sesame." A
man with a line love burns his way
like fervent Iron through ice. He
pierces through every difficulty, and
nothing Is allowed to obstruct his way.

Reverse Nelson and Bar Lock Hold*.
PUPIL becomes victor over the
master of the mat December 11,
1903, at Belltngham, Wash. On
thkt day Farmer Burns went
down to an honorable defeat for the
first time before Krank (Totch, his
youthful protege. The Humboldt boy
had applied himself faithfully since
his match with Burns three years
previous at Fort Dodge, la. He had
studied, practiced and dreamed of
the time when he would pin the shoul-
ders of hiB tutor to the padded canvas
for the first time.
Burns had never lost a match pre-
vious to this encounter. He told Gotch
be would not acknowledge defeat at
bis hands without a struggle, and
the pride of Big Rock, la., kept hla
word.
"1 tipped Gotch off to all my tricks,
and then gave away 30 pounds In this
match. How Is that for liberality?"
asked Farmer Burns, speaking of this
memorable battle.
It was Gotch's ambition to defeat
Burns decisively, nor did he spare the
feelings of the veteran. He rushed
at Burns at the call of time, and by
"bulling" It soon had his opponent
down on his knees. Gotch tried to
get a foot lock, and BurtiB had diffi-
culty In escaping. Gotch then tried
for a headlock, *iut Burns knew how
ir'I .uT' w """ " to render the grip useless. Many sup-
limb that shrivels through lack of vl- , ,
tallty, life Is comparatively impotent
And how frequently we see this spir-
itual tragedy! "I have something
against thee, thou hast lost thy first
love." It Is the diaease of the with-
ered hand. Something has happened
at the very fountain of vitality, and
love sickens and dies.
"Live" or "Dead" Conscience.
The conscience can be a withered
hand. A live conscience gives a man
a fine, nervouB, sensitive, "feeling"
touch of the mind of Ciod. It gives a
^nan a discerning apprehension of
right and wrong. Whon the feeling is
really sensitive, what confidence It
Imparts to, life's movements, what
firmness, what motion, what decision!
But the conscience can he benumbed.
It can become as unresponsive as a
paralyzed hand. Common experience
afTords abundant illustration. There
are many people who were once en-
dowed with a scrupulous moral sense,
and In some way or other It has lost
its exqulsiteness, and they no longer
finely realize the will of God. The
withering is made manifest In ap
parently small disloyalties. Wo do
not sustain the sense of honor In the
full round of common life. I have
known people deface other people's
property by writing scriptural texts
upon it! They have a sensitive desire
to serve the Lord, but their honor Is
not keen enough to make them respect
the common rights of their fellows
The will may be like a withered
hand. What a strong, pushful, re-
sourceful hand it Is when it Is en-
dowed with healthy vitality! But when
It withers everything is touched with
irresolution and hesitancy. Nothing
Is Initiated with power. Nothing is
addressed with persistence. Nothing
is accomplished with decision. A
feeble will makes all life's doings ane-
mic. Everything is languid, from the
sickly promise to the imperfect
achievement.
Bring All to God.
Whut can we do with all or any of
these faculties of the soul? We have
only one resource. We can bring
them to him who made them, and who
can remake them by tlu\ power of his
grace. But we must bring them delib-
erately, naming the withered member
in the presence, of our Lord. We must
bring them submissively, laying aside
all presumption and pride. We must
bring thera obediently, ready and wil-
ling to carry out the King's decrees.
If he cyders us to attempt the impos-
sible we must attempt IL "Stretch
forth thy hand!" The man might have
replied, "Master, that Is just what I
cannot do!" "Stretch forth thy hand,"
and the attempt being made the need-
ful power was found, and the man was
made whole. So must I bring my
withered love to him, and if need be
1 must "stretch it forth" in effort and
service. If he bid me I must act as
though I have a healthy love and in
the very effort 1 shall find 1 have re-
ceived it. 1 must bring my withered
hope to him. At his command 1
must stretch it forth. 1 must act as
a hopeful man. and I shall find that
the gracious light is restored. The
Savior's power goes with the Savior's
demand. The Savior's power is re-
lieved in human obedience.—Kev. J, H
Jowett, P. Im-
porters of the Farmer were at the
ring side, and they applauded loudly
when Burns broke Gotch's waist hold,
darted out, and put Gotch to the
mat. Gotch had been coached by
Burns never to let a wreBtler keep
him on the mat, if possible, and the
two wrestlers fought to the edge of
the canvas and then rolled off on the
floor. When they came back Gotch
tried hard to secure a hold, and finally
floored Burns. He tried for many
holds, but Burns broke them with con-
summate skill. Finally Gotch Becured
a full nelson aad bore down with
all his strength. As Burns tipped and
hiB feet dangled In the air, Gotch
switched to a crotch and wrist lock,
and bore the shoulders of the veteran
to the mat in 22:30.
In tho second bout Burns took the
aggressive from the call of time
Gotch, however, managed to put Burni
to the mat and held him there for ten
minutes. Burns tried desperately to
rise. Burns finally broke away, but
Gctch threw htm heavily on his head.
The veteran and his pupil mixed It
savagely. Burns secured a headlock
which Gotch broke with difficulty.
Burns followed up his advantage, and
fastened on a double bar lock with
which he pinned Gotch to the mat for
the second fall, also In 22:30.
Gotch rushed in to finish his tutor
in quick order in the third bout, but
Burns by a shift and a trip threw
Gotch nearly off the mat. Gotch rush-
ed in desperately and put Burns to the
mat. He tried for a toe hold, but
Burns finally broke the grip. Gotch
sect red a half-nelson, but Burns coun-
tered with an arm lock, and put Gotch
on his shoulder. Gotch secured a
toe lock, and had Burns near a fall,
when the veteran, with a supreme ef-
fort, broke the grip and came to the
top In a mlxup. Gotch secured a half-
nelson after coming out of a bad grip
and won the bout in 16:10.
Farmer Burns, veteran of a thou-
sand thrilling encounters on the mat,
had met his match at last in his pro-
tege. The master slowly but surely
was going down before youth and
strength and skill. Burns had been
able to defeat Gotch when he knew
nothing about the science of wrestling,
but knowledge made the youngster
invincible. Burns gained applause
by throwing Gotch over hia head,
but that only added to the youn-
ster's ferocious attack, and he pinned
his tutor to the canvas for the decid-
ing fall with a half-nelson and crotch
in 17:25.
Burns addressed the crowd, telling
them that Gotch was in the grandest
condition of his career, and that he
would certainly defeat Jenkins for
the championship.

Small Man la at Disadvantage In
Many Sports but Not in National
Game—Lajoie, Wagner and
Cobb Are Big Fellows.
Baseball players come in all shapes
and sizes. The player on the averaga
is between five and six feet in height
and weighs from 140 to 200 pounds.
He Is fat, lean, stocky, angular—in
fact, he may come in any old build.
While a small man Is at a disadvan-
tage in many other sports, perhapa
football most notably of all, this la
particularly untrue of baseball, and It
has proven often that the size of the
player makes little. If any, differeaea
In the national game. Lajole, Wagner
and Cobb, perhaps the three greatest
players who ever donned a spiked
Bhoe, happen to be big men, but this
is the exception to the mighty good
rule that size makes very little differ-
ence in baseball. If you happen to be
prejudiced In favor of either long or
short players take a glance over the

Pirates to Travel Most.
The total mileage of the National
league teams this year will be S4,23fi,
(he smallest that it has ever been in
the history of the league, which
speaks well for the work oE the sched-
ule committee, which consisted of
Messrs. Dreyfus. Heydler and Ban
Johnson. Pittsburg has the greatest
distance to travel on account of the
frequent jumps of the Pirates to Cin-
cinnati and Chicago for Sunday
games. Philadelphia has the smallest
mileage. The distances to be traveled
by each team are as follows:
Miles.
Pittsburg .........12,842
Chicago 11,2(2
St. Louis 10,913
Cincinnati
Boston 10,403
New York 9.744
Brooklyn. 9,434
Philadelphia 8.975
The American league mileage for the
season Is S4.S30.
To Make It Healthy and
Keep it HealthyUse a Re-
liable Baby Laxative
In spite of the greatest personal
care and the most intelligent attention
to diet, babies and children will be-
come constipated, and it is a fact that'
constipation and indigestion have
wrecked many a young life. To start
with a good digestive apparatus is to
start life without handicap.
But as we cannot all have perfect
working bowels we must do the next
best thing and acquire them, or train
them to become healthy. This can be
done by the use of a laxative-tonic
very highly recommended by a great
many mothers. The remedy is called
Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin and has
been on the market for two genera-
tions. It can be bought conveniently
at any drug store for fifty cents or
one dollar a bottle, and those who are
already convinced of its merits buy
the dollar size.
Its mildness makes it the ideal medl-
lcine for children, and it Is also very
pleasant to the taste. It Is sure In
Its efTect and genuinely harmless.
Very little of it is required and its
frequent use does not cause it to lose
its efTect, as is the case with so many
other remedies.
Thousands can testify to its merits
in constipation, indigestion, bilious-
ness, sick headaches, etc., among them
reliable people like Mrs, M. Johnson,
752 Dayton St., Kenosha, Wis. She is
the mother of little Dorothy Johnson
who was always in delicate health un-
til her mother gave her Dr. Cald-
weH'sSyrup Pepsin. Mrs. Johnson says:
Dorothy Johnson.
"I never saw such rapid improvement
in the health of anyone. Syrup Pep-
sin is a wonderful remedy and I shall
never be without it again." Thousands
keep Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin con-
stantly in the house, for every mem-
ber of the family can use it from in-
lnfancy to old age. The users of Syrup
Pepsin have learned to avoid cathar-
tics, salts, mineral waters, pills and
other harsh remedies for they do but
temporary good and are a shock to
any delicate system.
If no member of your family has
ever used Syrup Pepsin, and you would
like to make a personal trial of it be-
fore buying it in the regular way of a
druggist, send your address—a postal
will do—to Dr. W. B. Caldwell,
203 Washington Street, Monticello, 111.,
and a free sample bottle will ba
mailed you.

The Silo as a Forage Bank.
There Is produced every year in this
country sufficient forage to feed liber,
ally all the live stock of the land, and
leave a good balance besides. The
shortage of supplies each year is due
to the spoiling and wasting of forage
already grown, and the means of Re-
serving this forage will solve the
stock problem of the country. The
principal waste is now going on with
the corn plant. It is most noticeable
in the corn belt states where perhaps
80 per cent, of the stalk and leaves of
this most valuable forage Is wasted
annually. As economic stock produc-
tion is determined by the proper use
of forage, the silo furnishes a means
whereby all farm forage can be pre-
served and placed in the best possible
condition for feeding. The silo is too
well known to require a description of
this method, but its use is certainly
sadly wanting. It can be safely said,
on any farm where 10 head or more
of cattle are kept, a silo is a proper
equipment, and of great economic
value.

There are more nervous persons
made so by undigested food lying in
the stomach than the average indi-
vidual would suppose.
If food remains undigested in the
stomach, it begins to ferment, set up
gas and a large portion is thus con-
verted into poison.
That's why imperfectly digested food
may, and often does, cause irritation
of the nerve's and stupor of the mind—
brain and nerves are really poisoned.
"My daughter had complained for
some time of a distressed feeling in
the stomach, after eating, which set
me thinking that her diet was not
right," writes an anxious and intelli-
gent mother.
"She had been fond of cereals, but
had never tried Grape-Nuts. From
reading the account of this predigest-
ed food, it seemed reasonable to try
Grape-Nuts for her case.
"The results were really wonderful.
The little brain that seemed at times
unable to do its work, took on new
life and vigor. Every morning, now,
before going to school, she eats the
crisp little morsels and ie now com-
pletely and entirely well, shft seems to
have a new lease on life—no more
distress in the stomach, nor head-
ache, but sound and well everyway."
