So Requested BIackburne, $500 Short
stop, of White Sox President.

Russell Blackburne, the Chicago
Americans young shortstop. for whom
President Charles Comiskey paid
$500 last fall, yearns to go back TO
the minor leagues. Blackburne asked
to be returned to the Eastern league.
but his request was refused, Comiskey
considering him too good a baseball
player to lose at the present time.
With only three years experience III
baseball and only few months play
with major league team, Blackburne
feels that he can be of greater service
TO the White SoX ultimately by play
ing the remainder of the season with
minor league team, where he will be
kept in the game constantly. He wants
to help the White SoX, he says. and
believes he can make more rapid
strides and be Of greater service to
the team by a little more experience
with the minors.
Blackburne came to the White SOX
at the beginning of the present season
from the Providence team Of the East
ern league. He was a distinct sensa
ton on that club, fielding in a phe-
nomenal manner and batting at good
average. Since coming to the White
Sox Blackburne has had a checkered
career of successes and reverses.

To Keen Younn.

The little unnoticed strains are the
ones which tell.
Women should not stand any more
than necessary. II they would only
remember to sit down whenever they
have the chance it would add years to
their lives
For instance, it is not necessary to
stand so much while doing housework.
Sit down and read while you are wait
ing for the food to cook. Never pare
apples or shell peas standing.
Even ironing may be done in a sit
ting position If the chair is high
enough and has no arms.
Learn to take a few minutes rest
after each exertion, and this apparent
loss of time will be to your gain in
the long run.

tinually is the one who wears herself
