1t was too cold to play baseball yes
terday and the White Sox performed
as if they knew it.sAnyway, they didn't
play much baseball at any time during
the afternoon. and the result was that
they took a sound and decisive bea t
ing from the Cobless Detroit Tigers,
by a score of 10 to 1.
The Tigers seemed able to hit the
ball al any and all times. and the won
der is that they didn't score still more
runs. They chalked up seventeen base
hits all told. just as many as the Sox
counted the day before, but they netted
only ten runs.
After five innings had been played,
there never was a chance for the .Sox
to win the game, for in that fifth
young Buck" Weaver made a wild and
weird throw to second base when no.
body expected it. As the bases were
filled at the time, with two men out, all
three men raced home. These. with one
run counted in the previous inning
gave the Tigers a comman dng lead
and they just romped the rest of the
way.

the Cardinals 1t might have been a
lot worse than that If Umpire John

not called the game at the end of Chi
Cages half of the eighth inning.
The ostensible reason for curtail-
ing the combat was to permit the two
teams to catch their trains, but as
neither club was booked for an early
getaway the humane grounds were the
only substantial ones for stopping the
game.

a chance at Coulon near Chicago and
believes he is the one boy who has a
chance with the champion, inasmuch

MYSTERY IN THE TIDES.
Man Has Not Been Able TO Learn
Reason for Ocean Currents.

From the London Answer
The townsmsn whose acquaintance
with the silvery sea is usually confined
to that made during his summer holi-
days finds the question OF the tides most
puzzlIng. He knows that the tides rise
and fall twice in twenty-four hours, ana
that they are affected by the moon. and
there his knowledge ends.
As a matter Of fact. tides vary consd-
erably. Round about our own coasts
are to he found some OF the most ter
rible and dangerous tidal races and cur
rents in the world: they are due TO the
presence OF so much narrow, broken
land.
out in the open ocean the speed or the
waves is amazing, but nearer land tides
travel far more slowly. Down South.

enormous wave that courses round the
world from Cape Horn TO the Cape OF

There are two new colors this season
in wall papers-apricot and 'maIachIte''
or water" green. Both colors are beau

for backgrounds the green can be used
only in small quantities The apricot is
the color so frequently seen in old Chi

After the sugar has reached our

portal vein to the liver, where 1t is
converted into a substance called
glycogen This is carried by the
blood for use as heat or force to

But If a larger amount of sugar is
taken than can be utilized in heat or
force production, 1t may be deposited

tends to obesity.
