HER LITTLE HAND IN HIS
Mr.. Pickles. Explanation as to Reason
Somewhat DispelIed the Odor
of Romance.

Henne and Pecke were two henpeck-
ed married men, The other day they
/ met, and, after a few casual remarks
concerning the weather, the subject
OF women and unfortunate husbands
was-perhaps NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. To
Henne, however, suddenly came
thoughts of years ago, when he was
happy bachelor, and (unconsciously
OF what Fate had in store for him)
was walking OUT a girl who was,
later on, destined to bring him sor-
row and misery.
Pecke, seeing "far-away'' look in
his companions eyes, inquired the
meaning. Henne retorted dramat-
ically, Il was just then thinking, old
fellow, of those happy days long ago
when l used to hold that girls hand
in mine for hours-When-"
But the equally unfortunate Pecke
suddenly cut his companion short by
exclaiming: Why, that's nothing!
Cheer up! Do you know, only yes

"What?" said the startled Henne.
Yes, it's fact resumed Pecke,

MAKE GOOD AS INSTRUCTORS
Veteran Major Players Are in Big De-
mand as Coaches-Where Some
Are Now Located.

1t will not be long before all the ma
jor league teams are carrying former
players as coaches. The Giarts have
the veteran Wilbert Robinson of the
champion Orioles of 1894 to direct mat
ters on the lines in addition to Nc
Gleason. Harry Davis of the Cleve-
Graw. The Brooklyns employ Willie
Keller as Dahlen's first lieutenant. The
Philadelphfas are paying Paddy Moran
to coach the pitchers and steer. the
base-runners. The Chicago White Sox
have an able war secretary IL Kid
Gleason. Harry Davis of the Ciieve-
lands relies upon Paddy Livingston for
expert advice and the Detroits are
carrying the Oh time catchers, Jim
Mcclure and Joe Sugden.
Some of the a0ung players just
breaking into the Big leagues never
heard of their veteran instructors be-
fore. Charley Farrell, better known
as the Duke of Marlboro, who is in the
employ of the Boston Nationals as
head coach, recently took youngster

thing about the fine points OF the
game,
