An Auspicious Start

Ty Cobb. unlike many other ball
players who later developed into stars.
cot away to n good stert in his major
leagre debut game. The first tim"
the Georgian came to bat in the main
tent he laced out two-base hit to
center field. The smack was made
off no less celebrity in those days
than Jack Chesbro. That was hack
in August. 1905. And Ty has been
hittin' 'em ever since. In a word.
the Peach's start was a very auspici-
Gus one. indeed.
San Antonio light. [volume] (San Antonio, Tex.) 1911-1993, 1924-04-13

Cobb has lasted longer than dou-
ble-decker toothbrush in p North Caro-
lima hermit's shack. Genius is a
sturdy bird. 1t takes more than a
light tap on the Van Dyke to send real
talent kicking.
San Antonio light. [volume] (San Antonio, Tex.) 1911-1993, 1924-04-13

Baseball has never known more
daring or colorful base-runner. Cobb
leaned from base to base on his own
juice ! he could get more miles on a
pint of spiked foot oil than anybody
that ever played the game.

Smart crackers used TO say: Jen-
nings had a great ball club in Cobb.
They could have gone four furlongs
farther and said Ban johnson had a
great league in him.

and using soap on the back of the

All of 'em were as right as usual.
Cobb was lucky like Edison. Morgan.
Chaplin and Miss Joyce. The Young
man simply hns a swell line of gro
ceries and he was always prompt with
deliveries.

"MICkEY" AND LON CHANEY
 AT PALACE

The Palace is showing double photoplay features today and Satur- day In the presentation of the grand revival of Mickey" with Mabel Nor mand, and Lon Chaney in "The Shock" Tn Mickey" Palace patrons will get the laugh of their lives as it is the greatest comedy photoplay of modern times and Mabel Normand will keep any audience in convulsons of laughter throughout. Tn The Shock" Lon Chaney Is seen in a great role and the photoplay is q story of San Francisco's underworld just be- fore the earthquake of 1906. The earthquake scene at the finish of this picture is the most thrilling scene that has ever been produced for the movies. Starting Sunday night the Palace will present Flaming Youth" the startling expose of the woman of today, with Colleen Moore, Elliot Dex- ter and Milton Sills.
 It's photodrama of this age of jazz and pocket flasks and scorn of the conventions. and Colleen Moore as Patricia Fentriss is seen as the pam pered little fiapper who is indulged in all her dangerous whims
 She fits from one frivolous love af- fair to another, but of course the crash comes. and there Is d genuinely stirring romance In which the hero- inc is tolted into her senses,
 The sympathy of the audience, however, is at all times with the in nocent little f1spper that Colleen DOT trays because the fault is more that of her parents than her own.

THAT LITTLE AHsfENT
BY DR'. c, V. ROBINSON

Do you enjoy having something wrong In your bodily health? Are you in the habit of making such a. condt- ton a common subject or your con- versa ton, at home or among your friepds2
 Remember there is no bad health. as many persons term it. If you are cranky, hateful, lazy or selfish, and want to put the blame on some bodily organ. that's your chance.
 How terribly I feel!" or "If you felt ss I do," are common to all of LIS from chronic complainers The more you talk about your ills to others the nsore they will be magnified. It will take you much longer to get rid of them.
 The, worst feature of that little ailment' is that 1t takes so much of your time telling about it to others, that one leaves undone many import ant matters and often neglects real health conditions. How much better and more profitable 1t would be to say nothing about 1t!
 Act as if you had perfect health. It may make you feel better to talk about your earache, or heartburn. but it does not have that pleasant effect upon other people. If you have 8 had cold, get rid of 1t as soon as you can, but don't make a bore and nuisance of yourself to others.
 Use every effort to get that little ailment out of your system. Don't Nurse it along as regular compan- ion. People, as a rule, are quite will ing to sympathize with real sufferera but not with pseudo martyrs
 You will be surprised to find out how much better you will feel if that little ailment" is put away. and the good health" sign hung out. Nobody loves a sick man.
