BY PAUL X. sRUsKE.

Once more We are compelled 10 ran
haob ON the time-honored remark OF
uughie Jennings, who, In every hour
., Gloom has been wont TO point with
nride 10 the fact that the Detroit
Baseball cluo still leads the American
league.
There is a mighty solace in the
statement. and II is invariably follow
ed by the prediction from the nifty
little manager that the lead will be
the position which the same team will
occupy at the finish.
That the Tigers are in grave danger
of being knocked out OF that position
In the two games remaining 10 lie
PLAYED on the road before the open
ing at home against the eastern clubs
Is. nevertheless, extremely obvious
right now. II can't happen today, bur
Il may happen tomorrow. But an even
break in the Two remaining games In
st. Louis will keep the Tigers up and
Il takes a mighty pessimistic fan to
predict anything worse than this.
The Tigers have not been as forum
ate as the other western clubs In their
home games against the cohorts OF
Cantillon. John |. Taylor, Frank Far
rell and Connie Mack, but they will
finish the year with a royal opportun
ity of gaining on st. Louis and Chi
cage. with which clubs they close
their schedule.
The big danger is Cleveland,
for, II the Maps enjoy a run of
luck against the eastern clubs.
the Tigers will have no chance 10
drag them back.

In order to accomplish what IS ex-

Here sare two ways of waShin

Here .are two ways of washing.
Choose for yourself:
The Old Way. Get up at 5 o'clock.
Make hot fire, fill the washboiler and get it
boiling. Wet your white clothes, soap
them and put them into the boiler When
they're boiled good and tender, rub them
hard on the washboard, meanwhile putting
others in to boil. Keep the fire good and
hot. 1t will I'LL the house with nauseous
steam but that's necessary in this kind of
washing. When noon comes, if the smell
of boiling clothes hasn't taken your appe-
tite, snatch bite of cold lunch. When
you have the clothes boiled and rubbed
sufficiently, wiring them out, 90 from the
steaming hot room into the cool air out
side and hang them on the line You'll
likely catch cold, but it must be done.
The New Way. Get up at 7 o'clock
summer and winter. Wet all your clothes,
soap well with Fels-Naptha and let them
soak in cool or lukewarm water for
80 minutes. Then rub lightly, rinse well
and hang out to dry. That's ALL And your
clothes will be cleaner, whittier and purer
than you could get them in any other way.
The whole washing takes only few hours
Which way sounds best to you?
In using Fels-Naptha, follow simple
directions printed on the red and green
wrapper.
