PRESERVE YOUR SHOES.
It Will Repay You to Give Them Prop
 or Care and Attention.

CT Care and Attention.
 We all wear shoes. If we manage them rightly they will last longer, we will not need so many new ones and there will be more left for others. The following suggestions from the leath- CT and paper laboratory of the United States department of agriculture can be utilized by every one who walks:
 Shoes should be oiled or greased whenever the leather begins to get hard or dry. They should be brushed thoroughly and then all the dirt and mud that remains washed off with warm water, the excess water being taken of with q dry cloth. While the shoes are still wet and warm apply the oil or grease With a Swa1 of wool or flannel It is best to have the oil or grease about as warm as tlT hand can bear, and 1t should be rubbed well Into the leather, preferably with the palm. If necessary the oil can be ap- piled to dry leather. but it penetrates better when the latter Is wet After treatment the shoes should be left to dry in d place that Is warm, not hot
 Castor oil is satisfactory for shoes that are to be polished; for plainer ! footgear neatSfoot, fish oil or Olelne may be substituted. If 1t is desired to make the shoes and bOo,S more water proof beef talow may be added 10 any of these substances at the rate of half pound of tallow to q pint of oil. The edge of the sole and the welt should be greased thoroughly. Too much grease cannot be applied to these parts. X simple method of making the sOles more durable, pliaUle and water re- sistant Is to swub them occasionally with Iinsced oil. setting them aside to dry overnight
 Many of the common shoe pOlishcS are harmful to leather. All those which contain sulphUrir. hydrochloric or oxalic acids, turpPntiuc. hcl2ine or other volatile solvents have n tendency to harden the leather and make it more | liable to crack.
 It Is poor economy. too. to wear a shoe with the heel badly worn on one side. This throws the shoe out of shape and may soon result in its ruin. It Is also likely to cause temporary injury to the foot.

WEATHER MOST SEVERE IN
 RECORD

Weather in Skagway, throughout the Yukon country and along the Southeastern and Southwestern coasts of Alaska at the present time is breaking all records for severeness.
 The mercury in Skagway yester- day dropped between 25 and 30 degrees below zero, With no sign of a let-up and with a terrible wind blowing. At the summit of the White Pass the temperature was 50 degrees below and all business is stopped. Along the northern Yu- kon and at Dawson many cases of pneumonia have developed, and in addition there is am epidemic of whcopiEg cough, which has result ed In several deaths.
 At Juneau the mercury is down to zero with a terrific Taku wind, making it impossible for the Jeffer- son to leave. Ketchikan and WTan' gell reports severe weather.
 Over to the westward reports show the weather to be severe not only at the present time, but wind and cold have been predominant for several weeks. Anchorage papers are quoting Indians as to when there will be a let-up, but for weeks the weather has remained the same.
 Wind has played havoc with tele- phone and electric wires in Skag- way. Last evening fallen wire struck one man across the eyes and almost knocked him unconscious for time. Monday part of the roof on Asks warehouse blew off, and yesterday the whole front of the old blacksmith shop On 4th and Main blew down. Windows have teen broken in many places.

Think Health.

It is not fear of illness or of death that we should encourage, but a love of health, a sense of responsibility for the care of our bodies. q desire for bodily endurance and efficiency and full achievement.
 If the mind is fixed on these ideals and the already known means of ap- preaching them are utilized the need less miseries that embitter the lives of so many may be left to take care of themselves.
 It is not so much necessary to fight disease as to cultivate health for the happiness, Contentmeut and moral gain that it brings.

To make your hair grow use cold water as it runs from the hydrant. Apply the water tU your hair with your wet hands and run your fingers through what hair yoa have or rub your scalp with your wet ccld hands.

MAJOR BASEBALL
NEXT YEAR SURE
Leagues VIII Play at Any Cost, Ae-
eordIna to Tip That Is Floating
Around-Smaller Crowds
Expected.

Major league baseball next season
at any cost. That Is the tip that Is
floating around.
In 1918, if the war is still golng,
the major league battles will still De
offered for the stay-at-homeS, even
if the oldtimers who have grown De-
yond the conscriptive age limit have
to fill all the playing positions. !,
Baseball, however, does not stano
in much danger OF being taxed. AT
one time there was a threat to put a
10 per cent or even higher tax on
all baseball tickets, but such meas
ure has been discarded now, since IL
is in line with the revenue commit
tees purpose to leave the poor mans
entertainment alone.
The movie films, which offer
greater opportunity for wartime tax
alton than the major leagues, escap-
ed a drastic tax because 1t was plead
ed that the everyday man who pays
dime to see the flitter-films cannot
afford to pay more, even II the addi-
tional contribution goes into the gov.
ernments Golfers. And baseDall
takes its rank alongside the movies
as the everyday mans means OF
! recreation.
| Inc greatest uduSeI Tic 1910 pooS
ball season faces is the possibility
that the stars of the game may be
drafted. While baseball is to be fav-
ored so far as taxation Is concerned,
the human factors of the game are
to receive no special consideration,
and if they are drafted they must go.
A heavy percentage of the major
League players is eligible for con-
scription, but if the law Of averages
holds good not more than 20 or 20
per cent Of them will actually be
drawn for fighting. 1t IS pretty Ger.
tain that the lineups all over both
circuits next year will be as nearly
intact as could be hoped for.
The possibility of decline IN
patronage is something that the mag.
mates will anticipate. With real
war whirring on the other side, it is
not to be expected that Americans
here are to give undivided interest
to mere pennant races. But the lords
Of the national game have OWNED
that it will be better to keep both
the big leagues going in 1918, even
If every club is run at loss, than to
allow big league baseball to lapse.
Untold damage might he done to
the game as big time proposition II
the major leagues were to cancel the
season. AS matter Of safety and
strategy, rather than rs a play fol-
profits, baseball will be continued.

Slump has laid hold Of the White Sox.
Riding the pitching staff, harrassng

the White Sox have won only three out

of time the Red Sox have lost not a
single contest. Today the Boston
gang stand in first place, game sep
arating them from their white hosed
rivals
The final crack to make 1t complete
appeared in the Comiskey pitching
staff when Eddie Cicotte took beat
Ing at Boston. The Red Sox maced
him for thirteen hits. The first VIC
tory Of the Yankees was a fourteen
inning affair, in which Benz, Danforth
and Williams were handled for thir-
teen safeties.
On July 2S the Chicagoans lost a
pair of conflicts. Faber took the count
In the first and Scott in the second
Faber was pounded for only five blows,
while Scott suffered twelve. Eight
hits contributed to the White SoS
downfall Monday.
1t is now up to Faber, Russell. Benz
or Scott to halt the Red Sox march
OF this quartet, Benz or Faber is most
likely to turn the trick, although Rus
sell has shown in flashes that he Is
ready for creditable work.
