being drained into it there will be good
sized stream of water flowing in the
creek constantly. They have consulted

BASEBALL NOTES.

Wonder where Burchell will pitch
next year, anyway.
The Business Mems team and the
Kamers should put up a good game.
The Nationals have made a record
which will be a good thing to stand
OF at the start of next season.
Buffalo played 14O games this sea-
son, filling the entire schedule. The
only team to beat the Bisons in the
series was Newark. Baltimore broke
even with the Champs, winning and
losing ten games.
There is reason for disappointment
in Montreal. Though the Royals
were reinforced by a half dozen maj
or league players, the team finished
next to last.
Toronto fell into last place the first
week of the season, and never budged
from that position.
Baltimore beat out Rochester for
third place by the margin of one
point in percentage.
1t is not certain which of the New
ark players will be seen there again
next season. A number of new faces
will, no doubt, appear in the 1907
lineup.
Newark finished fifth, but beat out
Providence, last years pennant win
ner, despite the large amount of
money expended in the Rhode Island
city this season. Last year the Colts
finished fourth, beating out Buffalo,
the champion of 1904.
The Eastern League champions for
the past six years were: Rochester,
1901; Toronto, 1902; Jersey City,
1903; Buffalo, 1904; Providence,
1906; Buffalo, 1906. No team in the
league has ever won the pennant
twice in succession.
1t is reported that Mike Donlin
may succeed Dan McGann as the
Giants first baseman.

USING PROPER CoLoRs.

The Sallow woman would be taught
to eschew tan and the ghostly person
with dead black hair and a parch-
ment complexion would be told to
boycott bright green's.
Faded blondes who always seem
ed to love pale blue would be en-
couraged to introduce touches of
rose and poppy red into their cos
tunes.
The woman with the skin like a ca
melia and warm brown hair would be
decked in warm auv and browns.
The red-heared girl would wear
bronze and green, black and white,
and shades of gray.
Some women stick stubbornly to
the colors they like irrespective of
whether or not they are becoming.
One woman whose hair, eyes and
skin are three different shades of
gray always wears gray. The effect
is unearthly, but not beautiful. Ten
years ago, when her eyes were bright
er than they are today and her cheeks
were rosy, her gray bonnet and
gown made a charming setting for
her silvery hair and darker complex
ion. Today she needs purple and
deep, warm reds to warm her up.

hostess will provide the decorations
of the house, SO as to give an out

If the sun shines the round table

material and supported at the four
corners by stakes driven firmly into
the ground.
Rows of Chinese lanterns should
decorate this outdoor dining-room.
The table %centerpiece is a pink
enameled basket laden with peaches,
leaves and vines.
The place cards are imitation
peaches cut round done in water col
Ors, with a leaf or two colored green.
The names are put on in either gold
or white ink. Here is the menu,
which is unusually dainty:
Tomato and caviar canapes, jellied
veal or tongue with potato croquet-
ties, olives, shrimps in aspic with a
mayonnaise dressing, cheese waters,
a delicious peach omelet comes next,
served with branded peaches.
The dessert should be individual
peach iced cream in the shape of the
real fruit, with the leaves formed of
~pistachio cream. These will rest on
plates covered with real peach leaves.
The holders for the almonds can be
made by a confectioner from pink
spun sugar and shaped like peach
baskets.
The hostess should wear a pink
gown with stock and belt of pale
yellow, which is a very attractive
combination if just the right shades
are selected.
If desired, tiny liquor glasses filled
with peach brandy may end the re-
past.

Large Attendance.
When the pennant was flung to the

secretary to Mahlon Margerum, the
attendance was then larger than at

of the fair. Visitors were much i'm
