SAVAGE SPORT.
8lappin9 Game Bontoc Igor-rotes
a Unique Contest.
Every nation has Its own Idea of
sport. " That of the wild Igorrotes of
northern Luton used to consist prin
cipally of head bunting, a grisly and
bloody recreation which the American
occupation discouraged. But not ail
the pastimes of the igorrotes arc as
horrible as this. One rather amusing
game of which they are fond to thus
described by Dean C. Worcester in the
National Geographic Magazine:
A constabulary officer tells us that
If we want to see a unique contest we
must ask for the slapping game of the
Bontoc Igorrotes. We want to see a

A wooden bench is brought out and
two Uthe and muscular young men
step forward. One of them squats on
the bench, grasping his right thigh In
his hands so as to tighten the it iscles
as much as possible.
The other stands beside him and
stretches out his right arm. He
throws his arm back and then sweeps
It forward in a full round arm swing.
The Wow falls on thin air, close to the
tightened thigh muscles of his oppo
nent. . .
He now swings his arm back again,
his whole body turning with it; rises
on the toes of his left foot and puts
every ounce of strength which he pos
hes into a blow delivered with the
flat of his hand upon the rigid thlgb
of his opponent. Knots of musc.e
spring out on hto arm. back and legs
as he strikes and the blow cracks lUe
a revolver shot. _
The recipient endeavors, somettuus
with poor success, to preserve an ex
pression of contemptuous Indifference
The Judges examine hto thigh, if th
blow has been hard enough blood will
show Just beneath the skin and .be
will not have the stisfactlon of taking
a whack at hto opponent but if this
result has not been achieved tbeotb'r
must take his seat on the bench and

CHICAGO. Sept. 8? The Windy City
Bowling League abolished the "dodo"
ball at Its meeting last night.
Efforts have been made ever since
the close of last season to secure leg

but no action was taken by the Amer

al Bowling Association, which con
trols the game hi the East, put, a
ban on the ball last spring.
The "dodo" ball Is made by UUcing

Many Alaskan People in Poor Health 1
Without Knowing the Cause. ,
There are scores ot people who ,
drag out a miserable existence with- t
out realising the cause of their suffer -
ing. Day after day they are racked ,
with backache and headache; suffer t
from nervousness, dixzlness, weak
ness, languor and depression. Likely
the kidneys have fallen behind in their ?
work of filtering the blood and that is
the root of the trouble. Look to your
kidneys, assist them In their work ?
give them the help they need. You
can use no better remedy than Doan's ,
Kidney Pills.
Below is grateful testimony from a y
sufferer in this locality.
Mrs. Jane Mastin, 1016 Nineteenth t
St., Sacramento, CaL, says: "My high f
opinion of Doan's Kidne? Pills, ex . t
pressed two and a half years ago, re- j
mains unchanged. I can only repeat (
that I found them to be an excellent
kidney remedy as weU as a tonic
for the entire system. My expcri- f
ence with Doan's Kidney PiUs Justi- ,
fles me in advising their use to all j!
persons who suffer from a backache .
or other troubles, caused by weak *
kidneys."
