GOOD FOR STRETCHING SHOE
Not Always Convenient to Go to Shoe
maker When Bothered by Irritated
Corn or PInched Foot.

CBy JOHN K BRACHvoGEL In the scien-
tihc Amerfcan.)
Nearly every person, at some time
or other. has wished he could stretch
a shoe which at a particular point
pinched the foot or irritated corn.
1t is not necessary to go to a shoe
maker to have the leather stretched.
1t can easily be done at home by
means of shoe tree of suitable form
upon which an enlargement is farm
ed at the necessary point. The en-
largement must adhere firmly to the
tree and must be of such a nature that
it can be nodded, and that 1t will not
become detached from the tree when
the latter is forced into the shoe. A
matrix answering all these require
ments is ordinary candle wax. Seal
ing wax might be used, but the candle
wax is preferable as 1t will not in
jure the tree, and as it is easier to
manipulate. The enlargement is
formed by stripping a suitable guam

The lineup was as follows:
An Easy Day for Princeton.

IBy Telegraph to The Tribune
Princeton. n. j.. Oct. l3.-The first real
football weather of the season, a cold,
bracing day, was allowed to slip by this
afternoon by the Princeton coaches. so
far as their first team was concerned.
| The regulars had a rest. but all the first
substitutes played in a spirited scrim-
mage.
No injuries resulted from the hard game
against Bucknell on Saturday, but the
men who bore the brunt Of the game
were let off with nothing more firing
than long signal drill! to-day. The main
object Of the work was to reduce the
number of penalties for off-side plays and
the use of hands illegally. Strict atten-
tion was paid 10 the starting of all the
| first string line men. Merritt held the
right half position, in the absence Of
Frank Click. F. Trenkman substituted
for STREET., who was not in toys, and Shea
replaced Brown at right end. but the
other places were filed as they were IN
Saturdays game.
Shea seems to have the call over Brown
for end, and needs only a little more
practice TO bring him the permanent pref
erence Lamberton and Waller, the other
ends, who reported last week. were both
used in the scrimmage on the second linz
up.
Considerable attention was given TO
Lamberton on punting. for the coaches
seemed to feel that he has possibilities
OF supplying the most needed part of the
Tigers attack. He was easily outpunted
to-day by Gle, but he is expected to de-
velOp more power behind his twisters.
Borden. the halfback. who is one Of the
slipperiest men on the squad, continued
TO show his heels TO his opponents this
afternoon, and his work was feature of
the scrlmmage between the second ana
third string teams. He gained more
ground against the third team than f.
Trenkman and Merritt together. and
scored two touchdowns, the only ones or
the afternoon He picked his holes well
and slid through the line for rarely less
than five yards, and got away for severa!
long runs. He is also the best man on
the squad in initiating Captain Bakers
