NEW YORK, Jan. 6.-The most
popular indoor sport in New York to-
day was guessing how much the New
York Americans paid for Babe Ruth,
the home run monarch. The nearest
approach to official figures was the
smiling admission of Col. Jacob Rup-

Ruth was refused last summer by the
Boston Americans. Sporting writer's
estimate the price paid as $l25.0O0 to
$4,000

personal interview with Trustee Bradley
and he admitted that she would prob
ably need help for the next three years.
About month later, in November, 1910,
Mr.. Bradley called upon Miss McMeni-
men and said if the fund gave her any
help she would have TO sign over her
home on Flat street to the Thompson
fund. He told her on that occa sion that
she would not live very long and would
probably not be able Co do any more
work; that her sister, Mrs. Turner,
would not live long, and that her home
on Flat street might eventually go TO her
brother In law, Mr.. Turner Miss Nc.

THE PEACEFUL COLOR OF GREEN
Friendly to the Optic Nerve, Soothing
and Restful.

How many OF Us ever wonder why
mother earth chose to dress III green !?
The earth was not always green. Once
it was naked as the moon; but there
came a day when the weather grew cool
enough TO demand clothing, and at that
time, no doubt our maternal planet be-
gan TO look about TO choose a color
scheme for her dress. Why she chose
green is not OF record but that she chose
it with her whole heart, every pleasant
place OF creation testities.
Scientists explain that this is merely a
natural phenomenon, the color being
chlorophyl pigment, turned green by &C.
ton of the sun. But why il did not turn
blue, or red, or black no scientist knows
About all we can say is that mother
earth wanted q green dress, and she
went and got it.
Green h a restfui color. Oculists say
that of all the colors green is the most
friendly to the optic nerve. In lands
