STARS ASK FANCY PRICES.

The players at present hold the key
to the baseball situation, and they are
improving its possession by keeping
some of the magnates guessing. While
large number of National and Amer
lean league players signed contracts
for next year before the close of the
playing season, some of the stars (and
some who are not) are still fancy free,
and the chief interest these days is
in watching the efforts of the rival
leagues to land them.
But the players realize their oppor-
tunity. There are not enough tried
players TO go around with two big
leagues In the market after talent, and
the consequence is many players are
placing exorbitant values upon their
services. Even second-raters are de-
mandh.g big money for playing next
year, arguing that they can play one
league against the other.
The argument is all right from the
players standpoint, and no one
blames them for reaping as large a
harvest as possible from the existing
situation. But the wise man will re-
member that there is a limit even to a
magnate's bank roll, and II salaries
are crowded so high that either league
is forced to the wall or to make a
compromise there will be short work
made of clipping salaries. 1t is for
the players interests to maintain the
present situation as long as possible
but baseball players as a rule look only
TO their immediate interests. without
regard to what happens to others in
the same profession.

Candles are made nowadays in al
most endless variety. The fancy can
dies are made in various sizes and in
different shapes; as cylindrical and
tapering, straight-sided and moulded
into various forms, and sometimes
with ornaments attached to them, and
they are made In many colors and
shades of colors, and many of these
candles are artistic and beautiful.
Candles are made nowadays most
largely OF stearic acid and adamantine,
these two materials being both pro-

refinement, pressure and other pro-

paratiine. and they are made also Of

TO CHANCE A QUARTER


Two Coins.
How much does 1t take to change a
quaIter?" asked the bartender "Twen-
ty-fve cents. eh? Not on your life. 1t
takes seventy cents to do the trick.
How many ways do you suppose a
quarter dollar can be changed? Just
exactly eleven. A fellow of limited
means may like the jingle OF coin in
his clothes In that event you can give
him twenty-five pennies. or twenty
pennies and one nickel, supposing he
wants to get a beer. He may like to
have a little sprink ing of silver in his
clothes. and you can accommodate
him with fifteen pennies aud dime. or
ten pennies, a dime and nickel. II
he prefers to have change handy for
beer and car fare. why fifteen pen
nies and two nickels will fix him up;
and. II he wants a cigar in addition.
: besides having little stock of cash In
his jeans. give him ten pennies and
three nickels. That makes six ways.
Now then, a fellow with quarter can
trade it off for five pennies and four
nickels, two dimes and one nickel. and
dime and three nickels, or Ave nickels,
just as he prefers. And to accommo-
date him in any way he might select,
you have to possess twenty-five PEN
nies, two dimes and FIVE nickels-70
cents in all. all."-Philadelphia Record.

SAM LEEyER,s CLEVER WORK.

The baseball season of 1901, which
brought the highest honor in the base
ball world to Pittsburg, has been a
good season, although in some respects
II was not first class. From ball play
ers' standpoint 1t has been the best
season there ever was. for the average
of wages is much higher than hereto
fore. There have been times when
some few stars got more than most of
the top-notchers are receiving now.
but under present conditions the pay
of nearly every man on almost all of
the sixteen big clubs in the country is
high.
Although no figures have been given
out, II is estimated that the Plttsburg
club will clear between $4,000 and
$4,000 this season. New York. st.

To Eradicate Lice.

For lice on cattle the simplest and
best remedy is as follows: Take a good
sized tin box, punch holes through the
cover and partially fill with powdered
sulphur. Sprinkle the whole length of
the animal on the back, from head to
tail, and in about two weeks If any
lice remain go over again lightly. Don't
let cattle out If it storms.

butter granuies are allowed to reach
the size of a grain of wheat, the salt
is then added and the churn slowly re-

to become thoroughly incorporated in
the butter. The maker will soon be
able to estimate the mount Of salt re-
quired for any one churning.
