Jim Delehanty is quoted as saying

Delehanty making such remarks. He
always has been disorganizer. and
Magee is sure to have the same trouble
with him that other managers under
whom he has played have had.
IT undoubtedly is true that Magee is
not competent to manage, and espe-
cially not a team which is largely

Magee, of course, has an iron clad

BASE BALL BRIEFS.

Dick Carroll, business manager OF the
Brookfeds, says that the reason for the
heavy batting in the Federal League
last season was because of the scarcity
of left handed pitchers. Left-handed
hitters like Kauff and Evans had a
picnic against tho right-handed pitch
ers. The F'ederals will have more left
handed twirlers this season and per-
haps the batting averages will not
soar SO high.
There is a one-armed ball player on
the University of Texas team who Is
one of the wonders of the diamond. His
name is Dick Hooper. Hooper plays in
the outfield, and when occasion re-
quires q throw following a catch he
tosses the ball in the air. throws his
glove on the ground, catches the ball
again and shoots IT home. Last year
estimated that with two hands he
would bat $50.
Most of the bats used in the major
leagues are manufactured at Louisville
The other day when Detroit was visit
ing that city Hughey Jennings took his
players shopping and they bought a
va gon load of new ash bats. Each one
of them oozed base hits. That day the
Tigers made sixteen hits for a total
or tWenty-nine bases. II 1t is only q
question of good whaling sticks. De-
troit has the pennant cinched now.

Purifies Blood
With Telling Effect
Gives Conscious Evidence of
Its Direct Action.

s. s. S., the famous blood purifier, almost
talks as it sweeps it's way through the cir
culation. Its action is so direct that very
often in some forms of skin affection the
appearance of the eruptions changes over
night, the itch and redness are gone and
recovery begins Immediately.
AS q matter of fact, there is one ingredi-
ent in S. S. S. which serves the active pur-
pose of stimulating each cellular part Of
the body to the healthy and judicious selec-
ton of it's own essential nutriment. That
is why it regenerates the blood supply; why
it has such a tremendous influence in over
coming eczema, rash, pimples, and all skin
Affections.
And in regenerating the tissues S. S. S.
has a rapid and positive antidotal effect
upon all those irritating influences that
cause rheumatism, sore throat, weak eyes,
loss of weight, thin, pale cheeks, and that
WEAKNESS of muscle and nerve that is gen
orally experienced as spring fever. Get a
bottle of S. S. S. at any drug store, and in
few days you will not only feel bright and
energetic, but you will be the picture Of
new life. S. s. s. is prepared only in the
laboratory of The Swift Specific Co., 534
Swift Bldg, Atlanta, Ca, who maintain a
very efficient Medical Department, where all
who have any blood disorder of a stubborn
nature may write freely for advice and q

MANY BACHELORS IN BRITAIN
Newspaper Points Out That There 10
Plenty of Material for the
"NeW Army"

England is the land of bachelors, so
here is plenty of material for our
new army without any of the mar
led men. Indeed, we could safely
exempt not only the married but the
oetrothed and still raise an army of
100000 men, assuming, as we surely
nay, that only one man in two be-
:ween the ages of twenty and thirty
i've is physically fit. One works it
)ut In this way: In England and
Wales alone there are 4,25O,000 men
between the ages of twenty and thir-
:y-five, and over 2,250,000 Of them are
bachelors. To give the round figures,
between the ages of twenty and twen-
:y-five there are 1,275,000 bachelors to
H5,000 married men; from twenty-five
% thirty there are 100000 bachelors
20 100000 married men (half and
1alf), and from thirty to thirty-five
here are 375,O00 bachelors to 1,000,-
700 married men. This gives us our
:otal Of 2,250,000 bachelors of all re-
:ruitable ages in England and Wales
lone.
1t remains to show that there are
million bachelors who are not en-
gagged to be married Cor rather who
ire certain not to marry, for the num-
Der not engaged to be married must
De larger). Between twenty and twen-
.y-five, naturally, most men are bach
slors; to be exact, five out of six are
Unmarried. Between the ages of twen-

bachelor. Between thirty and thir-
:y-fve one man in four is bachelor.
Between thirty-fve and forty one man

Ind fOrty-fve one in seven, and be-
:ween forty-five and fifty one in eight.
One may consider that men who are
still unmarried between thirty-five and
torty are pretty confirmed bachelors,
10 one may take it that one-f1fth Of
he total male population has no in
;ention or expectation of marrying.
This gives us over eight hundred thou
sand bachelors. Assuming half of

REALLY ODD SAVINGS BANK"
Wife of Mexican Millionaire Devised
Most Curious Hiding Place for
Her Money.

With the coming of the pay enve-
lope for women has developed the
evolution of the broken-nosed teapot
as a savings bank. Many and varied
are the methods women have worked
out to save money, although it is only
within the last fifty years that the av-
erage woman has had to consider the
problem individually. With their "go-
ing to business" however, questions
of finance and investment have come
to them.
Many amusing incidents of the brok.
en-nosed teapot as savings bank have
come to light. There is a story Of
Pedro Alvaredo, the peon millionaire
of Parral, Mex, whose mines yield
ed silver SO fast that he could not
spend it, though he bought pianos and
ponies by the carload, and all the
metal work in the palace that stood
where his old adobe hut had once been
built was of silver.
Alvaredo had no faith in banks and
kept great quantities of cash in his
house. Naturally, much of this came
into the hands of Sonora Alvaredo.
The sonora had special bed quilt
which always covered her at night and
was never far away in the day time.
When the sonora died her maid went
to Alvaredo and asked for the quilt.
But Alvaredo was superstitious and
disliked to give away anything to
which his wife had been so much at
tached. He offered the woman money
instead and, though dollars we're no
longer flowing in at the rate Of 10000
day, he was generous in the matter.
But the girl insisted that she would
have no memorial of her mistress but
the quilt. -
Finally Alvaredos suspicious were
thoroughly aroused and he ripped the
quilt to pieces. 1t contained $780,
in $1,000 pieces. Among them was a
letter from the sonora saying that she
had saved the money for her two sons
and directed that it be put in the bank
to their credit. And now the young
men are being educated in an Ameri-
can college upon the interest of their
mothers savings.-From the Business
Woman's Magazine.

In the Day of Love.

If men are just to each other they
will love each other without effort or
coaching, because of the justice they
receive. They will not need to be
taught to love each other. Men are
taught that now because they find it
impossible to love the man who is ex-
plotting him or depriving him of his
due in any sense, either as exploiting,
slave-driving employer or competitor
in business or labor
And that, by the way, is exactly the
reason why teaching men to love one
another as they love themselves, if not
failure in 1000 years of trial, has not
been the success the teachers have
hoped. For, how can men love each
other when their principal business is
to cheat each other? 1t can't be done.
It ought not to be expected. Men SIM
ply can't love each other under these
conditions.-Exchange.
