The home stay. which is so soon
to end, has not done much for the
good of the cause When it began
the Crackers were in next to last
place They are still there. They
must now beat it down into the
torrid and tempestuous Southern
division for two weeks Of trouble.
Yet there isn't man who has
seen the games Of the last two
weeks who is the least downheatt-
ed over What ought to be pretty

For the Crackers are looking right
enough at last and it will be sur
prising if they don't beat it right

n HANGING pitchers is ticklish
- business. More considerations
are involved than the average fan
deans of
In the first place there is the
question, rs it necessary" Many
a pitcher wabbles WHO eventually
pulls himself together Even the
most expert of managers finds him
self puzzled in almost every game
to know whether his pitcher is
merely pickering or whether he is
really in need of help.
In the second place a manager
must ask himself, "Win it do any
good ?"
Not all managers have an Ed
Walsh to fall back on in distress
1t doesn't do much good to take
out one pitcher who is being drub-
bed in order to put in another who
will get the same dose.
Thirdly, especially in the smaller
leagues, a mogul must ask himself,
can | afford it,"
The pitching supply in the
leagues that have narrow player
limits az the Southern has. is
small With doubleheaders piled
up and lame arm or two on the
staff a manager is up against it.
He may taNe out pitcher who is
going bad only TO send in another
who will do the same and be forced
finally To use three men which
may mean half or even three
flfths of his staff
Fourthly. the manager will have
to inquire Of himself before he
changes pitchers. What win be the
PSYCHOLOGICAL effect ON the stare"
The fans don't think of this side
Of it at all. The truth is. though

CHRISTMAS DECORATIONS.
Great Skill Shown by the coburs
GIassbloWerS.

Great Skill Shown by the coburs
GIassblowers.
From COburg, Germany, little rail-
way only twenty-five miles long leads
into the heart of the Thuringlan forest
ranges, terminating at Lauscha, where
Christmas ornaments are made. Near
ly every house and hut is the home of
glassblower, and the smallest child
that can use it's hands Understandings
has some part in the work.
The blowers make all their work
from glass tubes of varied diameter
and thickness, which are cut to con-
venient lengths by scratching them
with file and breaking them at the
cleavage. A burner consisting of two,
four or more flames issuing from tiny
gas jets cOnverges its fires upon
metal plate, which usually supports a
piece of dry wood or charcoal whose
slow but fierce combustion under the
blue fame of the blowpipes rapidly
melts the hardest glass. Driving the
bellows which supplies air to his blow
pipes with his feet, the operator turns
out with deft swiftness balls, stars,
pendants and larger ornaments of al
most every conceivable shape and size.
His good wife is perhaps injecting \
spray of gliding or silyering solution
into great basketful of the tiny balls,
used to festOon windows and Christ
mas trees, or, perhaps, with greater
skill is coloring with deft fingers the
interior of a larger ornament
The eldest boy may himself be q
skilled operator and perhaps excels his
father in creating miniature reindeer,
with great spreading antlers, spirited
horses, coursing hounds, fragile air
ships and balloons and, most wonder
full of all, roses, carnations, tulips, and
other flowers, each Of whose parts is
made Of colored glass of the proper
color and fused in place with deli
cacy of touch that far excels ordinary
| painting
So light and fragile are these goods
that they are packed in cotton and
cartons divided into compartments and
| to a very great extent are shipped
away from Lauscha by parcels ex-
press. So generally is this done be-
tween the middle of November and
Christmas week that the postof1ce
force and a number of mail cars are
furnished to meet the demand for par

English Plum PUDDING,

For those who want their plum pud
dings homemade the following recipe
may prove useful:
Take One-half pound of finely shred
ded suet. one-half pound of washed and
dried Currants three-fOurths of pound
Of stoned raisins. four tablespOonfuls
of dried and sifted breadcrumbs, three
tabIespoonfuls Of warm sifted -four,
Ave ounces OF loaf sugar, three eggs.
three ounces OF shredded citron, one
half nutmeg grated and a teaspoon
full of brandy Mix these well togeth.
er,, adding enough milk to, make it of
nice consistency. and boil for six or
eight hours.
This pudding keeps admirably. and
when it is not to be used for some
time it should be boiled, say, for six
hours and then hung from a hook in
the storeroom until about to be used,
when it should again be placed in the
pan and boiled for an hour and half
OF two hours longer,
It may be boiled in a mold, basin
or cloth and must be kept in which
ever is chosen until ready to be served
