BY PAUL HALE sausKE.

A few, supplementary drops of
sap, hlched from the mutilitated
trunk OF a South American tree are
doing an amazing part in the thrill
ing OF thousands at the American
league baseball parks this year. The
additional amount OF rubber as Il
component part OF the official sphere
has made baseball better game,
and IL was quite some pastime before
that
II anyone has any doubt regarding
the addition OF interest. he wasn't
among the throng that saw the ter
rife game OF Saturday, or the one
that packed Bennett park on Sun
day.
Two hard-hitting, fast-running
teams were battling for supremacy.
There was somebody on base in al
most every inning and the course OF
both combats was punctuated with
batting rallies which kept the score
q continual see-saw. There were dou-
BILE plays, close decisions on the
sacks and inspiring hitting at all
stages.
In the two games the teams scor-
81 bases. One of the games was
won by a margin OF two runs and in
extra innings, the Redsox trimming

while the Tigers turned the tables
and won by one run on Sunday.
The new ball Is the greatest little
foe to ennui yet invented.
And II is the same at the other
parks of the league. Everywhere one
hears OF record-breaking batting
feats. Fences that have never before
felt the fieeting shadow OF the hurd-
ling sphere are being located and
with reasonable frequency. II used

nings. The Kansan pitched good
ball until he weakened in the ninth
inning Saturday. He set at rest all
doubts over his arm which seemed
TO be in excellent shape, though not
quite up to the strain OF going the
entire nine innings. Edgar had not
pitched for ten days and had been
resting for a greater part OF that
period. That the one game was what
he needed is the belief OF the local
Napoleon who looks to see Willett
himself from now on.

when you have washed and wiped
them to get rid of the fur, and re-
move the stones. Lay them in brine
for three days and then out in fresh
water for one day. Stuff with a mix
ture of grated horse-radish, mustard

halves into shape, pack in a stone
jar and pour spiced and sweetened
vinegar over them. Cover closely.
Scald the vinegar and cover the

So he talked the matter over with
her. They were yet so thoroughly one
that they could discuss it earnestly,
lovingly. She saw his point, and she
admitted the reasonableness of it..
Only, she argued, that it was but fair
that he take an interest also in her
pleasures. This he agreed to; that is,
he agreed to the outdoors, but not to
the cards, for, he said, there was no
enjoyment in cards in themselves.
Their enjoyment was purely ephemer-
al. Thus they deliberately planned
for finding pleasure in the same
things as they grew older.
The experiment was most success
full. They are now a couple along in

Fortunately, they chose those pur-

gan when they still were willing and

late measures to make for themselves
little haven which would afford de-

Edwin w. Streeter says that it
weighed in the rough 112 IA carats
and was sold to Louis XIV in 1868. AT
ter it's purchase by the Grand Mon
arch, it was, apparently, cut. What
eventually became of it is somewhat
of a mystery, but from the sudden re-
appearance Of a stone of similar char

Tavernier gem Tecut. This stone is
now known as the Hope diamond.

ut was a case of drifting apart or
growing together" said the man. "And
1 decided we should grow together"
His listener was an interested wo-
man, so he told his story. There is
matter for thought in it for many a
husband and wife.
There was the usual happy love af-
fair and marriage, and at the time
when he took a special hand in shap-
ing their future, there was no need to
feel apprehensive. Many a couple
are living just as they were, only they
do not read the little signs as did
this man.
He was literary and musical in his
tastes, given very much to spending
his evenings with book or magazine,
fond of attending concerts and operas.
His taste was good in these matters.
He enjoyed only the best. He did not
care for trash.
She showed little liking for such
things. She was fond of outdoors, of
tramping, riding, golf She also liked
cards.
When they were first married, this
difference in tastes was not so notice
able. They were so wrapped up in
each other that they had not begun
to take notice yet of other matters.
But as time passed, the husband be-
gan to see how things were drifting.
Many man would scarcely have
noticed this little breach, or if he had
noticed it, would not have thought it
worth while to mend it. But this man
did not think it unimportant. He
looked ahead at the years to see just
what it would mean. And then he de-
cided to take hold of the matter res
olutely and to plan for congeniality
instead of indifference in the old age.
His wife was woman of more than
the average intelligence. He knew
she could become interested in fine
literature and music, and get as much
enjoyment out of them as he did,
once her interest was aroused. 1t was
not that she was incapable of apprecl-
ating these things. 1t was simply that
she had given them no attention.
They had never entered her life in any

THE TOUGH CHICKEN.

When the Chicken" ordered by
telephone turns out to be a venerable
hen or rooster, do not despair. There
are several ways of transforming it
into a respectable family piece de

methods, such fowls have been made
as tender as spring chicken: After
drawing, seasoning and stufhng the
bird. let it simmer until over half done.
Then place it in the oven with piece
of pork laid over it's breast. Pour
the LIQUID over and around the roast
in the pan. Finish the cooking in a
very hot oven, basting frequently
with drippings. When ready to serve
drain off any superfiuous fat that may
have been in the pan before preparing
the gravy. The pork prevents the
fowl from becoming dry, and II
small onion is added, it will have a
more savory flavor. The simmering
lessons the toughness. In fact, slow

tough meat, but it should simmer, not
