"For PHYS sakesl Where did you

the two rooms, gazing so eagerly at
the new parlor suite that she did not

"Oh, Emmyi" Mrs. June quavered.

Good One to Knou

Bruce Barton tells of a woman at
dinner party saying to the bishop sit
ting next to her that her favorite
passage in the Bible was that line
about God tempering the wind to the
shorn lamb. The bishop kept a sober
face and, on being asked his favorite
passage, said that 1t was the one
where it tells about Eliza crossing the
ice.
It must be said in fairness to the
woman that the passage she quoted
certainly has a Scriptural sound, and
she was by no means the only one
ignorant Of the fact that It is general
ly credited to Laurence Sterne, though
nearly two centuries before him the
Frenchman, Henri Estienne, had writ
ten: "God measures the cold to the
shorn lamb"

HOW MANY BIG
LEAGUERS PITCH
Fool Batters by Not Pitching
Ball Expected.

II you want to be a great pitcher,
get reputation for particular ball
and then never pitch that ball.
This apparently paradoxical advice
is given by II. G. Salsinger in the May
issue of the American Boy Magazine.
He points out that the surest pre-
ventatives are those that never have
to be used. Mathewson's most effec-
tive ball was undoubtedly his fade
away but the fact that he never used
1t made 1t ten times more effective.
big Ed" Walsh was the greatest spit
ball pitcher of all time, but he could
fan Ty Cobb four times in one after
noon without ever pitching spitball.
He merely made Ty think each ball
was going to be splitter.
This is merely part Of the policy
of never giving the batter what he
expects which most pitchers follow.
Walter Johnson, it is true, pitches
his fast ball practically all the time,
but its SO fast he doesn't need to
change.
Another popularity of Johnson's is
never to change his pace, to pitch at
the same speed whether the bases
are filled or empty. This is, of course,
effective but very wearing and Mr..
Salsinger advises the young pitcher
to save himself for the pinches rather
than follow Johnson's example.
The most essential thing that
pitcher should have according to Mr..
Salsinger is control. He should be
able to put the ball within hair of

Musician Gives High Place to the Guitar

According to a writer in LIE Figaro,
Of Paris, the guitar is at last estab-
lished legitimately in music, and the
man who placed 1t there is Jacques
Tessarech, who devoted more than 80
years of labor to the cause. Tessarech
has published 1.-THE Evolution -of the
Guitar" and French reviewers call it
q fine achievement.
NJ. st. Golestan In lie Figaro re-
marks that of all the family OF
stringed instruments no other has had
so hard a struggle for recognition.
Tracing it's origin, he relates that at
the beginning of the Sixteenth CEN
fury VirduDg gave the name Of quin-
tern to an instrument that correspond
ed to lutte but was smaller and had
five strings This is supposed to have
been the forerunner of the present
guitar. In the teaching manuals little
is said Of the guitar except by Ber-
lioz, who writes of it alphabetically,
yaluing its melancholy and dreamy
character and the charm 1t may WELD
when used as a solo instrument.
Tessarech's book sets forth the

and so promotes internal cleanliness.
Some writer's tell us that sauerkraut
relieves sufferers from diabetes, obes-
ity, lumbago, flatulency and gastritis
In fact 1t is almost a cure-all food
as near as any food can be.
Sauerkraut Is remarkable palat-
able medicine to be recommended for
seasickness, dyspepsia, dizziness and
even some skin troubles Given for
lack of appetite and nausea, 1t seems
to settle the stomach and spur the APP
petite. The tests of different ways Of
caring for sauerkraut tell us that
either canned or In bulk 1t has equal
virtue. The juice of the kraut itself
is wonderful preservative and when
kept cold and above freezing can be
kept for months. When prepared from
good solid heads 1t may be shredded
very fine, this Is the test for the best
kraut, as well as flavor, tenderness,
amount of water and color.
Sauerkraut II sour should be well
washed before cooking. If In bulk
and 1t is losing its moisture, q salt
solution should be added to it. Sauer-
kraut is more wholesome and diges-
tible uncooked than cooked, as is
fresh cabbage. However, many en-
Joy the kraut cooked In various ways
with meat. When sauerkraut Is iced 1t
is especially good, eaten uncooked, of
course.
In many homes and hospitals the
kraut water is given as a tonic and
appetizer and IL one likes kraut, 1t
will be no hardship, rather pleasure
to take. 1t is considered one of the
best blood tonics. With all that has
been said about this wonderful food
1t should grow in popularity.
Serve spinach well seasoned and
sprinkled with buttered crumbs.
Put the last few tablespoonfuls of
horseradish into the pickle jar.
Rhubarb combines with many fruits
and juices, extending the more expen-
sive fruits. Raspberries, strawberries
canned with two-thirds the amount of
rhubarb will seem entirely like the
small fruit. This reduces the cost
and makes a most palatable fruit.
Cranberry juice is another good fruit
extender; added to Strawberries which
lose their color In cooking, 1t makes
a beautiful and tasty preserve.
Save all the fruit juices left from
canned fruit. Mixed with two or three,
one will have enough for a pudding
sauce or a gelatin pudding. This
Juice is good added to lemonade, or
poured over apples when baking.

control, all that is needed In addition
is fast ball and curve. But with
out control all the stuff in the world
won't land hurler In the big leagues.
Eppa Rixey Of the Cincinnati
Reds has such fine control that he
purposely works for three balls and
two strikes on a batter in order to
make him nervous. He Is known as
a "Three and two" pitcher.
Other pitchers with great control
are Walter Johnson, Herb Pennock,
Charlie Rhem, Pete Donohue, Charlie
Root and Lee Meadows.
All these men, concludes Mr. Sal
singer, have made berth for them

never pitched ball that didn't mean
something, they never pitched ball
