No more sticky plates and no more

These are two Of the things for
which the Y. w. G. A. training schools
for home assistants is standing. The
school was started in answer to the
demand for home assistants on the
new domestic service plan which have
come into the central branch employ
ment bureau. Within the last six
months 800 calls for home assistants
have come In, and 40 have been sue
cesSfully filled.
There should never be a sticky
plate after the home assistant has fin

PITCHING FOR STRIKE-OUTS
Manager Pat Moran's TwirIers Are
Urged to Fan Out Batters on
Opposing Teams-

Pat Moran urges his pitchers to work
for as many 'strike-outs" as possible.
Long ago Manager Pat was converted
from the "let-' em-hit-it-and-trust-t
your-support" crowd of managers. The
handbook Philadelphia field was what
converted him, for on that arena the
strike-out pitcher Is a king. Even
feeble hitter Is apt to hoist fly that
will carry over the nearby walls, but
when man Is struck out he Is dead
for the rest Of the inning. Alexander,
who did his finest work for Moran, al
ways plays for strike-outs to the limit,
and Eppa Rixey has always been a
firm believer In the efficacy of the fan
out ball. With the Reds Pat has sew
eral pitchers whose leaping curves are
always apt to make the batters miss
three In row, and he intends to give
these fingers much leeway. Ruether
and Eller are strong on strike-outs and
Senior Luque likewise sings a cruel
fan-out curve.

passes through them once every three
minutes. Keep them clean and in
proper working condition and you have
nothing to fear. Drive the poisonous
wastes and deadly uric acid accumula-
tons from your system. Take GOLD

will always be in good condition. You
will feel strong and vigorous. with

Byron Bancroft Johnson, president

the outlook for baseball this season,
said that baseball never was in such

already the total attendance through
out the league was greater than in 1916

was every indication that the figures
of 1913, baseball's high-water year,
would be eclipsed.
Baseball has come back complete

tire circuit the crowds have supported
the sport in most loyal style, and the
good old game is on the road to even
greater heights than 1t reached in the

His first move in the direction 81

arrived before 1t was made known Mt

DUEL INDEFINITELY PUT OFF
How Wisconsin Congressman Turned
Challenge to Deadly Combat
Into Matter of Ridicue.

The story of the Potter-Pryor duel,
the famous challenge of Civil war
times whereby a Wisconsin congress-
man by ridicule put dueling in disre-
pute, recalled by the death of one of
the participants, is told in Interesting
style in the June number of the Wis
cOnsin Magazine of History, quarterly
publication of the State Historical So
ciety.
Roger A. Pryor, the Virginia con-
gresham who figured in the episode,
died a few months ago in New York
city. 1t was he upon whom John Fox
Potter Of East Troy, WalwOrth county,
then representative of the First Con-
gressonal district of Wisconsin, dur
ing April, 1860, brought nationwide
ridicule in answer to a challenge to q
duel. Congressman Potter offered to
fight with bowie knives at a distance
of four feet, but Pryor refused because
they were $50 demnition vulgar"
Most of Mr.. POtter's bowie knives,
including the one he purchased for
the duel and others sent to him after
the affair, are now on exhibit in the
State Historical museum, Madison.

winning teams to France to play a
series of games at the close of the sea-
son, Mr.. Johnson said:
81 just thought it would be great
thing for American soldiers, provided
there are lot of them over there next
fall, to have two major league champ
ions go over and play series of games
for their benefit.
"Now whether the two champion
teams go over depends entirely on the
report of conditions by Bill LANCE star
National league player 20 years ago,
who has been over there investigating.
If he thinks such a venture would be
cold and uninteresting, it will not be
carried out"

No Way to Beat the Game

There is no way to dodge the high
cost Of living.
Once we thought there was. 1t was
fine plan and we determined to try
it out. Meat was too expensive. SO
we would quit eating meat.
Therefore we ordered cabbage and
asparagus and spinach and beets. I'm
mediately the price of vegetables went
up.
We found you couldn't fool the food
man. He has a sure system. The
price is high on whatever you want to
buy. You can switch from one dish
to another as often as you choose, but
the little old price tag will beat you
to it.

MEMORIES OF HONUS WAGNER
One of Favorite Stunts of Former
Pirate Brought to Mind by Play
of Hal Chase.

Hal Chase perpetrated feat in the
first game Of a recent double-header in
Brooklyn that brought to mind one of
the favorite stunts practiced by Hans
Wagner when the Flying Dutchman
was in his prime.
With Zimmerman on first in the
eighth inning and Chase at bat, hit
and run play was decided upon. Otto
Miller anticipating such a move, called
for pitch out, which Larry Cheney de-
livered. Had the ball gotten by Chase,
Zimmerman, who had darted off first
base, would have been trapped, but
Chase foiled the Robins by throwing
his bat at the ball, knocking the pellet
ito right center for two-base hit.
