And now, just as everybody had
thought that the Detroit team was
picked In advance, beyond the shadow
OF doubt. with the exception only of
the final choice between Two or three
colt pitchers, here comes Charley
O'Leary with a letter tor local friend
IN which he goes fatty on record as
saying that the above situation doesn [
describe the case at all.

however, says uay-not until he Is

he expects TO win regular berth on

reasoning which 4Eeats-is=iiti tttts

He declares that he is out for the
same job with Moriarty that he Is
going 10 spare no pains To get his fel-
low lrishman's goat and that, what
ever rhe result, II will be a fair stand
up contest, in which may the best
man win.
OLeary has played considerable
third base and his style OF play shoul
adapt itself very readily To that posi-
ton. With the exception of a posi-
Bile weakness on coming in after hunts,
OLeary could doubtless cover the
bag right on the reel. as well as the
average guardian who plays regularly
az the position In fast company. The
tricks OF the buntation artists Will
have TO be mastered. but O1eary has

about as hard for Moriarty to come
to third from first, where he played
last year as il will be for OLeary him
self to shift from short to the third
corner.
OLeary Is on record as to his ambi-
ton and regardless of the way Mortar

new twist Is given TO the si'ua-

Hughie Jennings on Wednesday
fatty stated that, in case Rossman
did not report ne would not use
Crawford at first base, but would
send Moriarty to that corner and
place O'Leary on third base.
This may he safely taken to lndl-

 Jim nodded affirmatively. and they too were out of the door in something less than jig time.
 "All told I received about 60 people. not counting the dealers. who professed to be interested in my furniture. The highest price I was offered for the whole layout of furniture was $3O0. and the woman who made me that offer was good enough to say that she named that high figure because she felt for folks that were in trouble.
 "So I sent the whole bunch of furniture to an auction room and when 1t was finally disposed of the auetoneer told me that l was danged lucky to ve got 1926. 45 out of 1t, not counting his percentage for auctioneering it off.
 So, don't imagine that your furniture is an asset. The next time I've got a fiat full of furniture that I can't use any longer I'm going to distribute 1t among my friends by way of gifts and earn the name of being generous duck, at any rate.

EXPERIENCE OF A COUPLE
From inc New York Sun.

From the New York Sun.
 If you're entertaining the idea that your household furniture, no matter how costly and nifty it may be. is one of your assets worth considering, then stop dreaming" petulantly remarked a man who is making preparations to go away from here. When you have to sell your furniture you'll find out what I mean by that remark.
 T know, because I've just sold the furniture of my eight-room fiat. When my Chicago firm sent me to New York just a year ago it was the understanding that 1 was to stick around here for a while five or six years anyhow. Soon af- ter New Years the firm began to hint in correspondence that it was thinking or shutting up its New York branch and a week or so later, despite my Walllngs, the firm recalled me to Chicago, and I'm on my way back there now-lor hle' I suppose, gosh hang it.
 ''When I came to New York l de- cided that I was going to live in com fort here The wife and l spent month picking out furniture It was pretty nice stuff, rather above the average for flat furniture. Every bit of it was sub stantial, staple goods, and no fluff or gingerbread about it.
 "We had to buy the whole flatkeeping outfit from canape to crackers and the buy set me back just a few dollars less than two thousand bucks. l got the piano second hand at a bargain-an 1m- mense hargain-though it was almost new, with not a nick on it. l got half a dozen shadow box pictures second hand too, at a bargain; but all the rest of the truck was dead new.
 well, when I got my recall to Chicago I advertised my flat furniture to be sold all in a bunch nothing seperate dealers ignored, and invited those interested to come and have a look after o'clock of evenings.
 ''The interested folks were right on the job. The first of them to arrive obviously had ignored that part of my advertise ment which said that dealers would be ignored, for a blind man could have seen through & Scotch mist that they were dealers,
 "The first of them to heave along rang the bell while my grandfathers clock in the hall still was chiming the hour of g. a pretty punctual customer. He was a squat young man with a pair of black, hawkish eyes, very flash topcoat several sizes too large for him, gummy note book and a stub of a pencil.
 q led the way and illuminated all the rooms while he hustled through the flat. His scorn as he glanced at my stuff was manifest. It irritated me.

STAFF OF LIFE.
Milk is the Only Absolutely Indispens.
 able Food.

From the Boston Post.
 Milk is the only food indispensable 10 the human race. We can give up meat and become vegetarians. or surrender vegetables, fruits and nuts and live on flesh, but we cannot give up milk
 Babies must have milk or they die. In this country one-third of the babies die before they are five years old In some streets of our great cities the mortality of babies during the first year is 50 per cent. If our milk supply were pure we should save one-third of this loss to the country On account of municipal care- lessness regarding milk, society, at very modest estimate slaughters at least 95,00O babies annually.
 Owing to it's composition, milk is a nat ural breeding place for germs. The dis eases of the digestive tracts seem to be those most easily conveyed by milk. But besides enteric troubles and typhoid fever, diphtheria and scarlet fever are thus transmitted. Recent tests show that mea-
