A BASEBALL TRUST

ST. LOUIS. June 11.-Charging that organized baseball in the East is a trust in violation of the Sher. man law, Jack O'Connor, former manager of the St. Louis Browns. has instituted proceedings against the commission controlling the big leagues in an effort to obtain the sum of $25,o0O in damages because of his punishment from the organiza. ton.
 The busted manager has retained several local attorneys to make the fight for him, and while public opn- ion is divided as to the probability of compelling the commission to dis gorge the amount asked, the belief is general that the suit will have the effect of renewing the agitation for an investigation of the alleged combine, which recently was advo- cated in congress.

The Busy Man.

If you want to get favor done
By some obliging friend,
And want a promise, safe and sure
On which you may depend,
Don't go to him who always has
Much leisure time to plan,
But if you want your favor done,
Just ask the busy man.
The man with leisure never has
A moment he can spare;
He's busy putting off, until
His friends are in despair,
But he whose every walking hour
Is crowded full of work,
Forgets the art of wasting time
He cannot stop to shirk.
So, when you want favor done,
And want it right away,
Go to the man who constantly
Works sixteen hours day.
He'll find a moment, sure, somewhere
That has no other use,
And fix you while the idle nan
Is framing an excuse.

modest gifts mount up into q total
which It IL unfair to ourselves for us
to spend. The one way out 10 to
make up things IN which the ideas
and work make value. Our friends
appreciate these more than any other
sort OF gift.
TO make the little buttonhole bou-
Quets shown here, requires q bolt Of
light purple or dark lavender velvet
ribbon, q spool Of green covered wire
called "tierwire." and one small

purpose the velvet maiden-hair fern
Ii the best choice.
Scraps OF ribbon or silk in bright
colors-pink, rose. yellow or white.
Of other colors IL desired-make up
the small rosebuds. A narrow fold
four to six inches long Is rolled into
the semblance Of q bud. The tie
wire il wound about this roll at one
end to form the stem. As this wire
ls as fine as q coarse thread it should
be doubled to make the rosebud
stems.
The violets are made either Of vel
vet baby ribbon or No. 2 silk ribbon.
Little bows Of four loops. each three
quarters Of al Inch deep. are wound
at the middle with the tie-wire
which holds the loops to place and
forms the stem. After the roses and
violets have been made, group them
together in a little bouquet and tie
the stems with a bit of tie-wire.
Place a spray Of the m~aiden-hair fern
with them, wrap with tin-foil, which
may be had at the florists, and tie
with a plain bow Of the baby ribbon.
Purple tin-foil should be used. To
make q large bunch Of violets q widsr
ribbon (about q half inch wide) should
be used. The violets are made in
the manner first described. A single
dark red rosebud Of ribbon or silk

merry leaves OF rose foliage. There
are usually plenty OF these among
ones discarded millinery flowers. II
they are crumpled they may be
