BIG LEAGUE GOSSIP

"Ping'' Bodie has forsaken the straight and narrow path. It has been
 necessary to invoke the aid of the law to show the Chicago fence buster that he has not been doing right. A few
 days ago Ping disappeared from San
 Francisco, and 1t was learned that he
 had gone to a nearby town with a
 woman whose charms the ball player
 said made him run from home instead
 of Bmaking home run. Mrs. Bodie
 sought the aid of the court and found
 her erring spouse. His companion was
 taken into custody and held, while
 Ping, penitent and promising to be good in the future, returned with his family to San Francisco.

How the Name "Turncoat" Started,


 The opprobrious epithet. turncoat, took it's rise from one of the first dukes of Savoy, whose dominions lying open to the incursions of the two contending houses of Spain and France he was obliged to temporize and fall in with that power that was most likely to dis. tress him. according to the success of their arms. one against the other. So. being frequently obliged to change sides. he humorously got coat made that was blue on one side and white on the other and might be indifferently worn either side out. While in the Spanish interest he wore the blue side out. and the white side was the badge for the French; hence he was called Emanuel, surnamed the Turncoat, by way Of distinguishing him from other princes of the same name of that house.-C. c.

TELEPHONE
MANN Frs.

If some telephone girls were allowed
to write (and mention names) some
folks would stand unpleasantly re-
vealed. For it is curious fact that
some folks have two or three sets of
manners. and the set that is used by
them over the telephone is not the
most creditable one. 1t seems to be a
privilege that some folks assume that
because they think they are talking to
an unseen person-to a hole in the
wall so to speak-they can be rude.
The fact is overlooked that while the
telephone itself may be impersonal,
''the other end" is not The insistent
ringing of the telephone bell is not the
most nerve-soothing sound in the
world, but good manners are only good
when they are good Tor all occasions,
and the woman of really good manners
does not wait to ascertain whether it
is butcher, a servant, an employer or
mistress who is calling her up ere
she decides whether she will be polite.
The most revealing thing in our mod
ern life is to see some woman rush in
perfect wrath to the telephone, snap
out a Hello, what IS it?" and then
suddenly drop into bland and honeyed
