a good arm and Il level lead are the
two things which go together to make
good catcher. One Is OF no great use
without the other, but combined they
insure success.
A good arm frequently fails because
the brain to use 1t is lacking. This is
true not only in running the game, but
in developing your throwing as we'll.
A good many catchers have arms
that are perfectly sound and which
give them no trouble, yet they fail 10
use them to best advantage owing to
failure to study out the best way IN
which TO handle themselves.
TO q light man head work is of even

which will prevent II catcher from lie

Il cool head and clear Judgment, but
mere rashness does but little goull.
Head work in Il catcher is of the ut
most value to his team a catcher who
knows his own players and those Of

Letter to MIR. w. e. Leach, Marshall
town Iowa


Dear Sir: Your business is. when
house burns down, to give the owner
some money to build a new one. 1t is
a good business. Queer that the world
got on so long without 1t.
We paint the. one that burnt down
and the new one too. What is better
we paint the houses that don't burn
down.
You insure the houses that burn; we
insure the houses that don't. You have
the ashes and smoke; all the houses
are ours
We paint lead-and zinc: Devoe. We
sell the paint to painters; we don't
paint.
Lead and oil is the old fashioned
paint. Devoe is zinc ground in with
lead and linseed Oil; the best paint in
the world; and the cheapest, because
it takes fewer gallons than mixed
paints and it wears twice as long as
lead and oil. Nobody wants poor paint;
there's lots of it. though, in the world.
A NJ. Griffin, Plainfield, N. j.,
writes:
Mr. Aaron Higgins, of Plainfield, al
ways used 15 gallons of mixed paint
for his house Last spring he bought
Is gallons of Devoe and had gallons
left"
