HERES POEM THAT RAISED =.

now tearing British literary circles
asunder. ~ ~. +.
It was written by Poet Laureate
VIM. Watson and is supposed to re-
fer to the wife Of Premier Asquith. :
Richard LIE .tGalienne, another
rhymster, came to Mrs. Asquith's aid
with a poem, THE Poet with the Cow

The Woman with the serpent's Tongue
She is not old, she is not young,
The woman with the serpents tongue,
The haggard- cheek, the hungering eye,
The poisoned words that wildly fly; 3
The famished face, the fevered hand;
Who sights the worthiest in the land,
Sneers at the just, contemns the brave,
And blachens goodness in its grave. .
In truthful numbers be she sung, !: !
The woman with the serpent's tongue,
, Concerning whom fame hints at things
Told but in shrugs and whisperings.
Ambitious from. her natal hour, 49,.
And scheming all her life for power,
With little left of seemly. PRIDE.
L
With venomed fangs she cannot hide:
Who makes love to you today,
Tomorrow gives her guest away: :.
Burnt up within by that, strange soul
She cannot Stake, or yet control.
Malignant-1ipp'd, unkind, unsweet,
Past all example, indiscreet,
Hectic and always overstrung-

Baseball expenses are many and
high. Salaries range from Hans
Wagner's $4,000 a season down
to the $500 of the recruit. If one
team was to secure the men. recog
nized as leaders in their positions,
the salary list for the nine you'd
be $4,000 week, while necessary
would run the sum UP
to 100000. ~
Every day during the .season
300 balls are used. This means

Gloves range from 81 I'd - a

Protectors, masks and other, In

Railroad fares average IS. a

With all this going out, where
does the profit come in?

meant that fans paid $40, 900, 900

parts of the country, means So
100000 more.
The balance at the end of the
season shows on the right side of
the ledger. This does not appear
as big as some think it is, but it is
enough to keep the club owners
from the free lunch during the
cold weather.
