Above are pictured two pretty sew
ing or darning sets which are intend
ed to hang somewhere conveniently on
q wall or be suspended from some
place Of vantage on the bedroom fur
niture. At the right of the picture
an embroidery hoop is wound with mar
row satin ribbon and decorated with
bows having many long loops. A
thimble, spool Of thread, emery bag
and needle case are all tied to the
hoop or suspended from it. The small
kitten of cloth, much dressed up with
bow Of ribbon on the neck, carries
darning needles in its side and large
pins along it's back. A little, tinkling
silver bell hangs on the ribbon about
its neck.
At the left two heart-shaped
pieces of cardboard covered with fig
ured satin are sewed together along
the sides forming pocket open at the
top which will hold needles, pins and
other things. A spool of black and
spool Of white thread are fastened to
the front Of the pocket with a ribbon.
Small scissors are suspended at the
bottom, thimble is placed at the

Large pins with white heads finish
off the edge of the pocket and few
safety pins are suspended on a bit

SCRAPPING MANAGER
STILL IN BASEBALL
Both Leagues Boast of Leaders
Handy With Their Fists.
Former Star Player Laments Fact
That Game Is Becoming Hand
shaking Observation-Disclosures
Battles Not Numerous.

Jess Burkett, former big league star
batsman, recently lamented the fact
that baseball was becoming hand
shaking institution. There is not
enough fight in the modern game of
baseball to suit the aggressive Jess.
Perhaps battles on the diamond are
not as numerous as they once were,
but 1t cannot be said that the present
condition which Burkett mourns has
been brought about entirely by the
present crop of managers, for in the
big leagues today nearly all Of the
pilots are known quantities as far as
scrapping goes.
In the American league there are
two premier performers with their
mitts in Ed Barrows Of the Red Sox
and "Kid" Gleason of the Chicago
White Sox. And Jimmy Burke of the
Browns and Clarke Griffith of the Sen
ators cannot be considered shrinking
violets.
The National league, however, is
much better equipped in the matter of
fighting leaders in Hugo Bezdek of the
Pirates, John McGraw of the Giants.
Branch Hickey of the Cardinals, Fred
Mitchell of the Cubs and George STALL
ings of the Braves. Any of this crowd
will battle, and if rumors can be cred
tied, any of them can, in pinch, go

speak for him. They have, and when
classes in graduating at Princeton hon

their classes, it speaks volumes of the
esteem and respect they have toward
him down in New Jersey.

Donovan Of Harvard, piper" Dono-
van, the first American Splinter to run

He was one of the first to organize
the famous hose, hook Snd ladder

popular and the rivalry between Mas

1t was at Yale that Fitzpatrick made
his start at trainer in 1890 and 1891.
Contrary to the general impression,
Fitz was alone in handling the eondi-

Connie Mack of the Athletics, Miller
Higgins Of the Yanks and Hughey
Jennings of the Tigers might be
classed as the peaceful delegates, be-
cause they invariably try to settle by
arbitration what the other scrappy
managers want to iron out in a battle.
Age usually takes much of the fire
of the scrappy leaders, and even John
McGraw is inclined to let pass some
CALLING incidents that only a couple Of
seasons ago would have sent the Lit
tie Napoleon" into hurricane of rage.
The officials and not the managers of
baseball are responsible for the con-
ditions of the present, for, as Pat Mo-
ran says, the player who fights for his
point now is rowdy instead of an ag-
gressive ball player.

For a Mans Desk

If there is anything a man appre-
ciates more than another it is waste
basket to hold things that he doesn't
want or a case to hold things that he
does want. Here are both these SEN
sible gifts, made to match, and happy
is the man who will receive them at
Christmas time.
The waste basket has a foundation
of very light board, covered with dull
rose-colored tapestry and finished with
dark-green braid. Handles with tas-
sells to match prove convenient. A me-
dallfon Of figured tapestry bound by
braid completes this practical and
handsome gift. The case for papers
is made to match the basket.

"Dynamiting" bile out of your sys-

purgatlves is all wrong. Salts, Oil, and
Cathartic Waters act by flooding the
bowels with the digestive juices which
are vital to the stomach. Cascarets
are different. They act as a tonic to
the bowel muscles, which is the only
sensible way to relieve a bilious at

leg. The noise which I had heard
from all over the city came straight
from his beak, the hollow upper and
lower halves Of which he was striking
together with Incredible rapidity."
In the Bazaars and Square.
The bazaars of Mosul are not the
attractive places they might be ex-
pected to be in city Of so much traf-
fic. AS William Warfield says in his
book, 'The Gate of ASIA" they are
rarely rooted, and are furnished only
with the commonest wares. The shop
keepers are generally Christians, but
there are many Arabs. Garden prod
uce is often sold in the squares in open
markets, and at any time vendors may
be seen talking in the streets, with
eggs or cucumbers in a basket, while
the mosque courtyards are favored
places for sweetmeat sellers, who dis
play Turkish delight" on scalloped
copper trays. The bazaars radiate
from a picturesque square quite near
the bridge, which is the center Of the
town. To the south and southwest
are the diapers, shOemakers and har-
ness makers; to the northwest the
greengrocers, while the potters and
dealers in hardware are to be found
in narrow stores opening on street
that runs to the north.
AS to the square itself, it is, of
course, one of the famous meeting
places of Mosul. Here the caravans
are gathered together, and their own
ers sit on the famous second-story
gallery Of a coffee shop, while the
muleteers stroll about the crowded
place, or lounge among bales covered
with brown and white striped sack
cloth. These men are almost always
Kurds, those from the southern and
eastern tribes dressed in tunics, Zou-
ave jackets and turbans. They wear
baggy trousers reaching to their feet,
which are covered with brogues of
heavy hemp or rawhide.

where the huge, formless mounds, ris.

of the ancient city of Nineveh. Any

would involve q journey back to the

but, as a matter of fact, the first firm
