THE RECORDS.

Although the game at the Polo Grounds yes
terday was with a team holding second place In
the League race. the attendance was again small.
Finer weather for baseball could not have been
made to order but the expected thousands with
the quarters and halves seem to travel IN some
other direction The shadows Of Coogan's blum
have no attractions for them.
The fact is that the average attendant at pro-
fessional baseball games realizes that the New
York team Is weak and that II is likely 10 remain
so as long as the present management Is IN power.
The team is weak In pitchers. and with Iiernan.

to the Wanamaker Library Club" You
have taken, in eight months, almost all the
sets that we thought would last year.
We refer, of course, to the International
Library, the twenty-volume sets that we sell
on monthly payments, and that contain the
best writings of all the best writers who
ever lived and wrote. From 1000 B. c.
down to Rudyard Kipling, the tale is COM
plete. Not writer, philosopher, orator or
poet is omitted, and the selections are full
and generous. Short stories, in fact, are
given entire.
Send us dollar and two references, and
if they are satisfactory we'll send you the
twenty volumes. Look them over ten days.
If you return them within that time, we
send your dollar back If you decide to
keep them, pay us their price in fifteen
monthly payments.
We have been making this offer since last
October, and sent out thousands and thou
sands of sets. The proportions of returns
is less than one-third of one per cent. No
praise of ours could ever be so strong an
argument as this. Try for yourself.
