Wise and Otherwise.

Misery loves company-and she usu-
ally has plenty of it.
Too much of the noise in this world
tries to pass itself off as music.
It's better to be wrong at the right
time than right at the wrong time.
ANY man who can catch flea in
the dark can hoe his own row in poll
tics.
There is no hope for the man who
acts the hypocrite even when he is
alone.
A woman who is has-been beauty
is as fussy as a man who has lost his
hair.
Many mans love for his club is
due to the fact that his wife never
gives her tongue rest.
Give a man his choice of making
friends or money and he'll not hest
tate more than a second.
Few men have will power enough to
do the things they don't want to do
and don't have to, but should do.
Books are desirable companions
when they bore you it is an easy mat
ter to shut them up without giving
offense.
A propeller driven by the air as a
car is running has been invented to
blow rain away from the windshield of
an automobile.

Uses of Paper.

The uses of paper are extending
very rapidly. Bags made of spun pa
per are growing Swedish product
and American manufacturers are be-
ginning to produce them. Coffee bags
are made of single strand. open weave,
with a sheet of paper pulp inside.
Onion bags are being offered Several
firms are engaged in making some very
attractive furniture or water-proofed
paper reeds woven over wooden and
rattan frames. The Swedes are max
ing three-stranded spun-paper rope
for general use that is we'll spoken of.
Paper horse blankets sound queer, but
they are being made. Fireproof fab
RIGS sound still more odd, but they are
making them nevertheless on a paper
basis. The japanese, who are the most
expert Of all in the utilization Of pa
per, are making aviator's suits Of oiled
paper that are very light and resistant
to cold.

GRlFF RECALLS HOW TRICK
PEEVED VETERAN BATTEF
Senator'S Manager Maintains That
Tommy Tucker Was Maddest Man
He Ever Saw on Ball Field.

1T has been my luck" says Clark
Griffith, ITO see large number OF
peeved and angry people in this old
game Of baseball, particularly gentle
men against whom l have been lucky
enough to do some successful pitching.
II still think, however, that the mad
dest man l ever did behold was that
grand old Monolith of the old Boston
team-Mr. Thomas Tucker. The occa-
sion on which beheld the fury Of this
famous warrior is still green in my
memory, and can never forsake me.
"Old Tommy Tucker was pretty near
ly on his last legs so far as big league
baseball was concerned, and hits to
him were more precious than rubies
and diamonds when we bumped to-
gether one summer afternoon. 1t was
a big game, most important game,
and | really had to win it. / loved
Tom Tucker very much, but loved
my salary more.
"The battle was hot one, running
along on pretty even terms till near
the close, when we managed to get a
couple on the bases and good old Uncle
Arson did the rest with one of those
murderous hits that they don't make
now, the old man not being there to
soak them. That Boston bunch was
never whipped till the last man was
counted out, and they went after me
strong in the death rally. First thing
l knew they had the cushions populous,
two down, and old Tom Tucker stand
ing firmly at the plate. worked him
into biting at two wide ones, then fed
him two more, which he refused to
reach after. 1t was coming down to
cases and no mistake.
"Just at this juncture happened
to remember trick of indoor base
ball-the enormous upshoot which Is
put on an indoor ball by swinging it,
underhand, with the knuckles upper
most and the ball rolling off the palm.
It causes huge upshoot ball, but is
not practicable for outdoor ball be-
cause, at the greater pitching distance,
the ball would lose all its speed long
before 1t reached the platter.
II decided to throw that ball just as
4 desperate experiment, and threw 1t.
