Not Exactly Patriotic.

He was, let us say, Irish, was among
several men Of other nationalities, and
had imbibed several beverages. He
was extremely anxious, moreover, to
uphold the glories of Erin, but was
not quite so sure Of what was going
on about him. A foreigner near him
remarked:
AN honest man is the noblest work
Of God!"
The Hibernian didn't quite catch
what was said:
Get out! an Irishman isl" he
roared.

There is a rule on the Detroit club,
unwrltten but observed by the team
ever since Hughie Jennings became
Its manager, that when q player Is
hurt he shall pretend not to be. The
object of the rule is to "phaze" the
other team. During the early summer
Jim Delehanty observed the rule of
the club in one of the greatest dis
plays Of nerve ever shown on the ball
field. Del was trying to steal second.
The second baseman showed his leg
out to block the runner while he took
the throw and Del made hard twist
ing slide trying to get past the leg
which had him stymied and to reach
the bag His leg smashed against the
leg of the baseman with terrific force
and-Bfter the baseman had touched
him out he hobbled around on one foot
groaning and rubbing his shin and
abusing Del for trying to hurt him.
Keep your leg out of the way and
quit blocking runners and you won't
get hurt" gritted Del as he arose
from the dust. Some Of you fellows
will get your gambs chopped of try
ing to block u.s." And he arose and
staggered over to the bench.
Once concealed in the bench he
called the trainer, who stripped down
his stocking and discovered that the
spikes Of the baseman had gouged his
leg along the shin bone for four inches
literally scraping the flesh on the
bone.
It was that injury which practically
put the Tigers out Of the American
league pennant race, as infection set
in and Delehanty. was only able to
play a few games during the remain
der Of the season.

game against Philadelphia about the
middle of the season. White had great
speed but poor control that day and
Gibby was having his own troubles.
In the eighth inning Pittsburg was a
run to the good, two Of the Phillies
were out and man on first. Gibson
signalled White to pitch out as he
suspected that the runner on first base
would attempt to steal on the next
pitched ball. White pitched out. But
the pitch out was wild and extremely
fast and Gibby had to leap sideways
to grab the ball with his bare hand
and prevent wild pitch. He stabbed
the ball with his unprotected hand
far back in the palm almost on the
wrist. The runner had suspected a
pitch out and remained standing still
on first base. He still was holding
the base when he saw that something
was the matter with the big Pirate
catcher. Gibby was acting strangely,
standing looking at his right hand
and shaking of his mitt to use his left
hand. The runner moved toward Sec
ond base, saw Gibson wasn't trying to
throw and made dash, reaching Sec
ond without an attempt being made to
stop him. A hit scored the runner,
tieing Il up and later Philadelphia
won the game.

The ball striking him at the butt Of

From time immemorial, sage and

the value of such a combination for
darkening the hair, for curing dand-
ruff and falling hair, and for making

In olden times the only way to get
a hair tonic of this sort was to brew
it in the home fireplace, method
which was troublesome and not al
ways satisfactory. Nowadays almost
every up-to-date druggist can supply
his patrons with ready-to-use pro-
duct, skillfully compounded in per
fectly equipped laboratories. The
