at Columbus, Ohio, on August 2, will
ever forget the day. A strong wind
had been blowing all day and the trial
, was deferred until late in the after-
noon with the hope that the wind
' would die, and it was not until 5
o’clock that the great horse, driven by
his owner, appeared on the track and
was greeted by a royal welcome. The
running horse, Mike The Tramp, who
formerly prompted the king of pacers,

style with the runner hustling along

but at the third trial Ketcham nodded
and as the great stallion, now on hf«

KING AMONG BOOKS
A King is “ one invested with supreme authority over a nation,
country or tribe,” also, “a chief among competitors.” When the
head of the Empire State’s school system applied this title to
Webster’s International Dictionary,
how aptly he used words. “The supreme authority?” Yes,
thousands have said so. “ Usually by hereditary succession ? ”
True again for the first Webster was builded nearly a century ago.
“ Chief among competitors ?” It would be presuming for us to
say so, but if you want to know what others think, write us and wq
will tell you.

charming to the eye. He was truly a
superb example of the trotting horse,
and it was with a feeling of suppressed
excitement that the vast crowd watch-
ed, hla every move and hoped for a rec-
ord. At the half, which was reached
in 59 3-4 seconds, a mighty roar went
up from the 15,000 spectators, which
tulekly subsided, however, and the
crowd waited and looked with breath-
less expectancy for the mark for the'
three-quarters of the mile. At the halt
he was joined by a second runner and
both pace makers were on even terms
with the stallion and setting a hot
pace. When 1:30 1-4 was announced
for. the three-quarters the suspense
was broken and the pent up excite-
ment was relieved with the wildest
demonstration. It was a two-minute
clip. "He will break the record." "He
will make it in two minutes," and like
expressions were ejaculated frort
thousands of throats as the great.'
gamey son of Robert McGregor swung
Into the stretch. At the third quarter
he faced a wind blowing at the rate,
of thirty itles an hour, but not for am
istant did the lion hearted Creceu
falter. With a runner on either side
and going wide, with eyes flashing de-
termination. nostrils dilated, and
mouth wide open, with nerves of steel
and muscles of iron. he came thunder-
ing down the home stretch with A
speed that was dazsllng to the specta?
tors. Without urging with whip or
voice and with a stride that was
grandeur itself, Cresceus, king of them
all, rushed on to the wire, scoring a
triumph In every step and made a new
world's trotting record, 2:02 1-4.
There was a cheer, then a roar and
then a tremendous volcanic eruption
of sound as the stallion fnished the
mile—the greatest performance in the
history of the turf.

A LITTLE BIG WASTE.
TINGUISH between economy and wisdom.
Sitting at home to save shoe-leather is econo-
my, but it is scarcely wisdom. In the same
way, doing without Ivory Soap is economy
but it isn’t wise; your risks are greater than all
possible saving. Every cheap soap contains free
alkali. Now, free alkali will eat its way through
the new oil cloth on the kitchen floor. Imagine,
then, what it will do in a single Monday’s wash-
ing I Is such economy wise?
