OUTFIELDER MADE AN
ASSIST UNKNCWINGLY

Billy Evans, umpire par excellence,
was tanning about some of the funny
plays he has seen during a recent visit
to New York. Said Bill:
81 have seen many funny things
happen on the bail field. ] once saw
an American League outfielder lose a
fly ball in the sun, have the ball strike
him squarely on the top of the head,
and then have the center fielder, who
was also in pursuit of the hit, COM
plete the catch. The box score gave
the outtielder who had used his head
an assist on the play. 1t was extreme
~ funny to all concerned, except the
athlete who lost the ball in the sun.
II once saw major lea que player
hit for home run, only to learn upon
reaching the bench that he had retired
himself midway between first and sec
ond, thereby pulling a colossal bone
There was runner on first when he
made his drive over the right fielder's
head. The runner on first was re-
cruit. He believed the fielder would
make the catch and played it safe by
going midway between first and sec-
onG. The batsman who hit the ball de-
cided there was no chance for the
fielder to make play. He literally
ran wild Ind passed the runner org
inally on first midway between that
base and second. OF course the mo-
ment he passed the preceding runner
he was out. He had hit the cleanest

he received credit for only single

ARE RULED BY SUPERSTITION
Almost Every Act of Roumanian,
From the Cradle to the Grave, Is
Thus Guided.

Roumania is one Of the favorite
homes of superstition, where supersti-
tons accompany life literally from the
cradle to the grave. Before a child
is christened it must unerstand the i'm
portant ceremony of it's first bath,
given in huge wooden bowl, which
also serves as it's cradle, at the home
of it's godmother. If it is boy there
must be poured into the bath a SYM
bolical mixture Of corn, wine and
honey; If a girl the bath must con-
tain feathers from the wings of a dove
and petals Of rose to serve as a
prayer to the Three Spinners, believed
to be weaving the child's destiny, that
her footsteps through life may be as
soft as dove and her face as fair as
a flower. A book. loaf of bread and
a rod are offered boy. If he chooses
the book he will be scholar; If the
bread, he will be thrifty, practical,
successful man of affairs; if the rod,
which is laid on his back, he will be
ne'er do we'll, is the belief.
When a man dies there must be
placed in his coffin a comb, bit of
soap and a coin to pay the fee due

WELL CALLED AGE OF GLASS
Compilation Of Few Facts Shows
How Dependent This Generation
Is on That Material.

Without glass elderly persons would
be unable to read or sew, short-sight"
ed persons would go about almost
blind. Without glass we should know
nothing more about the stars than
was known by the ancients, nothing
about the structure of matter, and we
should not even suspect the existence
of microbes.
Without glass we should have no
photographs, no moving pictures and
no illustrations in our newspapers.
Without glass we could have no cleo

windows in our churches, no thermom-

LONG FACES

"Cascarets" for Liver
and Bowels bring
back Smiles

Turn the 'kill-joys" out-the head
ache, biliousness, indigestion, the sick,
sour stomach and misery-making gases
turn them out tonight and keep them
out with Cascarets.
Millions of men and women take a
Cascaret now and then and never
know the misery caused by lazy liver,
clogged bowels, or an upset stomach.
Don't put in another day of distress.
Let Cascarets cleanse your stomach ;
remove the sour, fermenting food; take
the excess bile from your liver and
carry out all the constipated waste
matter and poison In the bowels. Then
you will feel great.
A Cascaret tonight straightens you
out by morning. They work while you
sleep.-Adv.
