COBB AFTER TITLE.
Will Make Supreme Effort to Regain
Batting Aonors.

Will Make Supreme Effort to Regain
Batting honors.
Detroit, Mich, Feb. 2S.-Tyrus Cobb.
the superman Of baseball, will make
the supreme effort Of his career TO re-
gain his batting laurels this season.
Only those who are close to the great
Detroit outfielder and who have
watched him perform, season after
season realize the keen disappointment
which came to him last fall when he
was compelled to remove his batting
crown and hand it to his bosom friend
Iris Speaker.
Cobb had led the American league
for nine consecutive seasons, His am
bition was to lead it for decade. He
failed and as he is now more than 80
fast as he was three years ago-there
is virtually no chance that he can lead
his league for span of ten years.
But Cobb, one OF the earnest ball
players that ever lived, is going to try,
He has spent the winter in the open,
keeping his nerves steady, his body
strong and his eyes clear. He already
has told Manager Jennings that he will
report with the veterans at WaXa-
hachie, Tex, on March 10, In the pest
he generally has been the last player
to reach the Detroit training camp.
Cobb wants to start the season under
a full head OF steam-he hopes to drive
himself from April until October He
will take chances on becoming stale,
but taking chances has long since been
child's play for the Georgian. Coin,
is determined to go to the limit of his
power to regain the ermine robe OF
baseballdom.
During the closing days of 1916,
Cobb might have added a few points
to his batting average, If he had been
willing to sacrifice the element of
teamwork. But he didn't. When De-
troit and Boston were clinched in the
struggle upon which the pennant hung,
Cobb told newspapermen that Speaker
was the champion hitter, so far as he
was concerned. Cobb had to get hits,
and more hits. to beat out the sturdy
Texan. Cobb buried his ambitions
When he had chances to get bases on
balls he took them. When the play
called for a bunt he laid one down. He
played the game--not that he cared
for his batting average less. He cared
for the pennant more
Now and then 1t has been said that
Cobb went back" as batter last
year. His average was ST.. mark
that N these days is rarely attained
even by star. The story OF Cobb's
defeat is entirely told in sentences:
Speaker hit 1856. 1t was a battle royal.
that struggle between follow southern
ers. Neither asked for pitching favors:
neither got them
SO the season Of 1917 will have
added significance from the start. Cobb
is now the challenger

To Overcome Eczema

! Never mind how often you have tried
and failed, you can stop burning, itching
eczema quickly by applying a little zemo
furnished by any druggist for 25c Ex-
ira large bottle, $1.O0. Healing begins
the moment zemo is applied. In short
time usually every trace of eczema, tet-
ter, pimples, rash, black heads and sim
liar skin diseases will be removed.
For clearing the skin and making it
vigorously healthy, always use zemo, the
penetrating, antiseptic liquid. 1t is not a
greasy salve and it does not stain. When
others fail it is the one dependable treat
ment for skin troubles of all kinds.
