box in three innings by the White SoX
last week.
1t looks to be pretty good bet To play
the Tigers to beat the Pirates as they
have been beaten in two worlds cham
pionships. The old saying goes. IF a!
first YOU don't succeed, try, try again.
And it is pipe that the boys from the
City of Straits have learned enough in
their previous experiences to make it in
teresting for Wagner ct al. in the coming
series.
According to statement just made by
Garry Hermann, chairman of the ma
tional commission. President Murphy of
the Chicago Cubs will soon be made to
understand that he must obey the rulings
of the supreme court OF base ball. There
has been serious friction between Murphy
and the members of the commission for
several months and a climax is generally
looked for. The Cubs impetuous owner
seems unable to keep out of hot water.
Nearly 800 Detroit fans will accompany
the Tigers to Pittsburg to attend the
opening of the worlds series at Forbes
Field Friday. The Michigan rooters are
enthusiastic and confident. They are not
a bit alarmed by the fact that the Pirates
are Z to favorites and believe that the
Tigers VIII WIN the championship because
the Pirates have no first class left handed
pitcher. 1t is believed that Jennings will
pitch Summers. AIullin and Donovan. with
Nilian III reserve, While Pitts burg will de-
pend upon the slants of Willis. Camnitz
and either Adams or Maddox. The Pitts
burg club reports an extraordinary adj
vance sale of reserved seats and predicts
that $4,000 persons will see the opening
battle, with possibly greater crowd Sat
urday If Pittsburg wins first.
Hugh Jennings telegraphed the .e~
York American League club yesterday
that the champion Detroits would be Oh
hand to play an exhibition game with the
Highlanders next Wednesday in New
York city for the benefit of the veteran
scribe Sam Crane, who Is seriously ill.
Jennings will have his regular team In the
field and has asked Joe McGinnity to
pitch part of the game. If the consent Of
President Brush can be obtained Christy
Mathewson will pitch for the Highland
ers. President Farrell has purchased
private box for $500 and President Taylor
Of the Boston Americans has subscribed
S1OO for a similar vantage point. The
Elks have charge of the game and they
are confident that it will prove a success
in every way.

LESS MEAT
Advice of Family Physician.

Formerly people thought meat nee
essary for strength and muscular
vigor.
The man who worked hard was sup
posed to require meat two or three
times a day. Science has found out
differently.
1t is now a common thing for a fam
lily physician to order less meat, as in
the following letter from N. Y. man.
II had suffered for years with dys-
pepsia and nervousness. My physician
advised me to eat less meat and
greasy foods generally l tried several
things to take the place of my usual
breakfast of chops, fried potatoes, ETC.,
but got no relief until 1 tried Grape
Nuts food.
After using Grape-Nuts for the
cereal part of my meals for two years,
1 am now a we'll man. Grape-Nuts
benefited my health far more than the
$4,000 worth of medicine had taken
before.
my wife and children are healthier
than they had been for years, and we
are very happy family, largely due to
Grape-Nuts.
1--WE have been so much benefited
by Grape-Nuts that it would be I'M
grateful not to acknowledge it."

PREVENTING PAINT TROUBLES.

It's easy enough to recognize the
symptoms of poor paint, after it has
been on awhile-after it's inherent
tendency to crack and peel and scale
and blister, etc., has developed into
trouble. You know these paint ''dis-
eases" usually indicate adulteration
or substitution in the paint materials.
And you know the only remedy is re-
painting.
A little knowledge Of paint and
painting requirements, and how to
made sure Of the purity and quality
of materials, would prevent all trou
BILE, and save the big extra expense of
re-painting; just as a proper knowl
edge of simple health-laws, and OBJ
seryance of them, prevents sickness.
A complete painting guide, includ
ing a book of color schemes, specifi
cations for all kinds Of painting work.
and an instrument for detecting adul-
teration in paint materials, with di-
rections for using it, can be had free
by writing National Lead Co., 1902

for Houseowner's Painting Outfit

A LAUNDERING BEGGAR.

Every man to his trade" said Mr..
Phililthililbly. ct isn't for the car,
penter to show the mason how to lay
brick, nor for the paperhanger to
show the blacksmith how to shoe
horses; let the shoemaker stick to
his last; and yet it might easily be
that any of us could give to men of
quite different callings pointers that
would be valuable to them.
For illustration, I might not be able
to beg, but l could and did give yes.
terday to beggar a helpful hint. He
hadn't had anything to eat for four
days, he said, and would I please give
him nickel. Sad his mien was and
shabby his apparel, and his manner
was detected and mournful; beggar
artistic and capable; but he had over.
looked one small detail; there was
waited on his words as he told his tale
the scent of that odorous vegetable,
the onion.
Nov, you know, this is a scent that
remains with us commonly not more
than thirty-siX hours, and never more
than two days; and he had said he
hadn't had anything to eat for four,
and I pointed out to him as gently as
l could this flaw in his story, and he
willingly corrected it; he said he
hadn't meant four days; he meant
two, but said he didn't get half enough
then.
$50 gave him the desired nickel;
but 1 hope he took my hint to heart,
the significance of it being that man
out begging on the hungry lay should
never eat onions.
''It is so in many ways and of many
things; a man may easily find faults
in things that he could not himself
produce. You remember the familiar
story of the tailor and the sculptor?
The tailor couldn't sculp at all, but
he could point out to the sculptor the
error in the number of buttons on the
sculptured coat. 1 couldn't beg, but
I could point out to the beggar tina,
trivial and yet in effect important
oversight.
Every man to his trade. but if we
can't all be creators of all things we
can all be critics in way"

Thousands of Women's Clubs.

Nobody knows how many women's
clubs there are in the United States
The General Federation of Women's
Clubs was registered in the almanacs
of 1908 as having over 5000 clubs in
it's membership, with 100000 women
on their rolls. But that was in Jan
nary, 1908, and the federation grows
amazingly eevery years. 1t contains
too, only a few out of the numberless
women's clubs in the land, since there
are small clubs, societies and circles
everywhere which do not affiliate
themselves with any state or national
organization, but exist simply for the
pleasure and profit of their own mem
bership
