WHAT DID THE CATCHER SAYT
Something the "Fans" Would Like to
Know, But Will Never
Tearu
II was the last half of the ninth.

It was the last half of the ninth.
The pitcher had gone up in the air, and
the bases were as full as three goats, re
lates the Newark News.
The score was ga in favor of the team
in the field. A single would tie the score
A two-bagger would win the game.
Two men had flied out, and the man al
bat had two strikes against him.
1t was a crucial moment.
And, as we say, the pitcher was ratified.
Suddenly tire catcher held up his hand.
His right hand.
He removed his wire mask and stepped
toward the pitcher, who advanced to meet
him
With mouth close to the pitchers ear
the catcher whispered something. What
it was no one heard but the pitcher, who
returned to the box.
The ball shot true across the plate.
Strike threel" cried the umpire. The
pitcher had saved the day.
Now, then, the thing we want to know
is this: What did the catcher say to the
pitcher?

A long coat that quite covers the gown
is a very useful garment to have in the
wardrobe, but not very well adapted to
pedestrian occasions-is too heavy and
cumbersome. For carriage and motor
wear, and for journeys by train, it is a
most serviceable and proper garment.
The new ones of the autumn are rather
narrow across the shoulders, but the full
gathered sleeves make up for this
change. A yoke breaks the length from
neck to waist, and the collar is a new
addition to the late 1905 wrap. Large

in the back, joints and muscles; make your head
ache and back ache, cause indigestion, stomach
and liver trouble, you get a sallow, yellow COM
plexion, make you feel as though you hadheart

The cure for these troubles is DIR. Kilmer's
