The Passing Years.

AAC oooAaS
v v WITH the announcement from
Ty Cobb that he had turned
wv in his uniform for the rest
of time, there followed the
story of Babe Ruth celebrat-
ing his thirty-fifth birthday. And this
was accompanied by statement that
Bill Tilden would no longer be a candi-
date for the American Davis Cup team.
Walter Hagen is on his way past 36, and
having trif1e harder time.
The boys are not getting any younger.
There will be neither a Speaker nor a

season. 1t was not so long ago that

Dempsey has turned from fighting to
the promotion of other fighters. But
they are not all through.
Few opposing pitchers will express
any keen pleasure when Babe Ruth
walks to the plate this season. Few
opposing golfers will take any match
for granted with Hagen sizing up a
10-fOot putt. And while Tilden will
not be a Davis Cup figure. he will
not be rated as the softest picking

LacOste on the other side of the
net.
Yet it is only question now of brief
time before most of the old brigade will
be memories. The hardest Of the lot
seems to be Ruth. He was a big
Lacquer Is years ago. He has put a
tremendous amount of pressure on
somewhat scanty ankles for over is
years, but unless some unusual accident
strikes him down he still will have four
or five years left.
A Few Others.
Some one has suggested that the most
remarkable of the base ball veterans Is
Grover Alexander.
Alex was a winning big league pitcher
IS years ago. He will gather in his
share this season. But what about one
Jack Quinn? Jack Quinn was cutting
the corners back in 1904. That carries
him back IS years. He was supposed to
be on his way out of fast company in
1918. He still was a winning pitcher
with the Athletics Is seasons after many
had checked him out.
Quinn now is on his way to the
longest service any ball player has
known in the big league or the
higher minors. This will be his
twenty-sixth season. Cy Young's
reign lasted from 1891 to 1912.
Quinn already has passed the span
Of Young and Johnson and Alexan-
der. And he still was putting his
share on the ball when the season
ended last Fall.
These veterans, such as Quinn, Alex
ander and Max Carey will be interest
ing studies this season. Alex seemed
to be skidding in the last world series,
but that one spot doesn't mean lot

NJ DoNALDA. CRAIG.

September 20, 1876.-This centennial
Summer, when the Nation is celebrating
the Tooth anniversary of the Declaration
OF Independence, has brought to WASH
tngton somewhat Unexpectedly great
numbers OF visitors to view the city and
the public buildings. Many visitors to
the Centennial Exposition at Philadel-
phia are including washington in their
itinerary. -
ut is doubtless q manifestation Of
love Of country" says he Evening Star
today, and it Is an encouraging sign
Of prosperity and good feeling to find
persons from every State visiting the
Capital Of the Nation. The time was
when most OF the public oflceS in
Washington were filled by clerks, chiefly
from the States adjacent to the District
Of Columbia. The changed condition OF
the population and society in Washing
ton has brought here to reside many
persons OF note from every State, so
that visitors from the renotest parts of
the Republic now find here friends and
washington is becoming in fact. as
It is in theory, the National City-a city
in which the whole country has-and
Of right ought to have-an interest and
pride. This feeling Is now, we believe,
manifesting itself In the great influx

Mount Vernon.
Congress of late takes this view, and
Is more liberal and national in her
treatment of the District and In the
assistance she gives for developing and
improving the Capital OF the country.
Every American citizen should feel at
home in Washington, and every one has
claim upon all officers and dignitarieS
who reside here. It Is the duty of the
press of the city also to welcome visitors
cordially and in all ways possible make
their stay agreeable and interesting, so
that they will carry away with them
pleasant recollections Of our city and
its people.
1T would have been a considerate
thing for our citizens and city officials
to have appointed committee to well
come the stream Of visitors from the
States which every day pourS into
Washington and to give them all need
full information of how to reach the
Capitol and the different public build
ings, and how most conveniently to
visit the various places Of interest in
and around Washington. It Is not too
late to remedy in part this omission,
and we would suggest that the ofhcers

DIET AND HEALTH
BY LULU HUNT PETERS, M. d.

In case of eczema in breast-fed babies,
the irritant comes through the moth
er's milk, so her diet must be inveSti-
gated.
There are protein skin tests which
will disclose the offending ones.
The foods that most often offend are
egg whites, wheat. tomatoes and milk.
(There is a case reported of baby, 5
months old, who suffered from eczema,
who was not having anything to eat
except her milk formula, but the skin
tests showed a sensitization to wheat
protein. It was found the milk came
from a COW which had large portion
of wheat bran in its feed. When milk
from COWS which were in pastunre was
used, the eczema cleared up.)
You tell me your baby IS undernour-
ished, Mrs. K, so evidently she Is not
having an excess Of the starches, sugars
and fats. so perhaps she is sensitive to
some protein. If this Is the case, the
fender--unlesS she can be given the
tests-is to take away one food at a
time to see If 1t makes any difference.
It may be possible she Is SenSitized to
milk. as one doctor has told you. and
If that is so you may have to cut 1t
down to a pint day, or even cut it
out entirely. sometimes It Is the ex-
cess of the offending protein that causes
the allergy) Then you should make
it up by giving the baby some milk
made of an almond or peanut butter.
A level tablespoonful Of the butter with
five ounces Of water would give milk
of 100 calories. It would give around
Is to 20 calories of protein, which would
be about the same as you would get in
five ounces of skim milk. Nut protein
is a very good protein. The almond has
an even higher percentage of lime than
does milk, and the peanut has about
half as much as the milk. The chief
thing that would be lacking in the nut
milks would be vitamin A, 90 she should
have some cod-liver Oil every day.

Eczema Durable.

1T hate to see a baby with eczema
come to my clinic. It's the most onery
thing we have to treat! Some cases
will seem to respond to changes in the
diet, others to external medication and
others fail to be relieved in any case.
If the eczema does clear up. we don't
know whether the treatment We used
had any bearing or not, for it seems to
clear up at times of ITSELF"
This is what a New York ch1ldren'S
specialist said to me recently.
So don't be surprised, Mrs. K, that
the doctors you have seen failed you.
However, you mustn't be discouraged,
either, for not all doctors are so pessi-
mistic as the ones you have seen and
the one I quoted. In fact. DR.. Moses
Scholtz says that eczema can be cured,
and that the reason more of the doc
tors do not cure it is that they do not
realize that the causes may be both eX-
ternal and internal and the treatment
must take this into consideration.
Causes.
Internal-The internal causes may be
q senSitization to some protein or de-
rangement due to an excess OF the
StarcheS and sugars and sometimes to
the fat. These over-eaters are usually
fat and the eczema is of the oozing type.
External-In babies, some irritant,
such as soaps, unclean diapers. hot or
cold air and winds. In adults, different
materials with which they work.
The sensitization to some protein OF
the food may be through its faulty di-
gestion or else it is in itself an irritant.
(This sensitization is also called food
allergy, or anaphylaxis or idiosyncracy.
It may cause bronchitis, asthma. hay
fever-the swelling affects the bronchial
and nasal membraneS-hives, migraine,
one-sided headache, and other things.

Hands and Nails.

Cleanliness is the first essential in
the care of hands, for nothing Is more
unlovely than griny knuckles and nm
gernails. The skin must be thoroughly
scrubbed with soap at least once a day.
The second essential Is the liberal use
OF lotions or creams to counterfeit the
drying effect Of the water. Most people
find 1t necessary to wash their hands
several times day. BY so doing they
wash away more and more of the nat
ural oil from the skin, and this is why
hands so often age prematurely.
When the hands are much soiled, it
is good plan to rub them with lemon
juice before using the nail brush and
soap. Dilute the lemon with equal
parts Of water or else dip the hands in
water and apply the juice while the
skin Is wet. Rub the inside Of the
lemon on the grimy spots, rinse well
and then use soap and water.
Do not use very hot water for wash
Ing the hands. Rinse OF every particle
OF soap and dry the hands thoroughly.
Now rub in a hand lotion. For use in
the daytime a non-greasy one is more
convenient to use, but every night in
addition the hands should be maSsaged
with an oily preparation.
Here is a recipe for greaSeleSS 10

A Sermon for Today
81 REV: JOHN r. GUM.
That Dull Bow,

4AoL 0u1A oOys
Text-"And Samuel said unto Jessie
Are these all thy children? And he
said, There remaineth yet the youngest
and, behold! he keepeth the sheep
I SAM, Xviii.
And yet it was that youngest, David
the keeper of the sheep, who, when he
appeared before the Prophet Samuel,
was chosen to be the King of Israel.
Seven of Jesse's older sons had already
passed before the prophet and had been
rejected. Why had not Jesse presented
David to the prophet along with these
older sons? Was it because he consid-
cred him too dull and unpromising?
Evidently so. David had never done
anything but attend the sheep, and evil
IDENTIFY Jesse did not consider him in
the race. Yet he turned out to be the
great surprise among the sons Of this
patriarchal father.
The world has been given a good
many great surprises by dull boys. What
a surprise Napoleon was to his school
masters. In school he was stupid. But
he found something that interested him
the science Of war-and he studied
that until he became military genius
without a peer in all history. Darwin
was never enthusiastic about his school
studies. But he knew what he was in
terested in, and he specialized in that
thing until he became recognized as an
authority in his line. Isaac Newton was
down near the bottom of his class. How
he must have astonished his parents
and teachers by his scientific achieve
ments! Goldsmith hated school, but he
learned to write by writing, both good
poetry and good prose. And he proved
an amazement to his more brilliant fell
low students.
Do not worry too much because your
boy is not making, the highest marks in
school. He may seem slow and stupid.
but give him time. You may yet be
surprised by that dull boy.

KEEPING MENTALLY FIT
BY JOSEPH JASTROW.

| habits of mind too mature, he will as
group leader not do all the leading him
self, but will select the best leaders
among the pupils to lead the rest. For
his job is to make group leaders as wen
as to be one. {
The name for that leadership quality,
which Is of all human qualities the most
precious, is prestige of personality. You
can impose by authority, and 1t would
be foolish to suppose that teacher or
parent can get along without au-
thority; but you can lead only by per-
Sonality. It Is on account Of his per-
sonality that wise group vests author
ity in its leaders.
Personality inpresses. The quality of
the pupil is suggestibility; he can be led
but not forced. Leaders need follow
ing, but to be follower must carry no
idea of subserviency. Nature makes
lead in one direction and follow in an
other Give each chance to lead as
well as to follow. Setting patterns is
part Of the art of leadership; It must
be done personally.
I happened to be present in a fifth
grade schoolroom when one Of the pu-
pills accidentally upset bottle of ink
on the teachers desk. She took 1t all
calmly and avoided the worst dam
call self-control." No preaching on
that virtue could have half the effect
Of example.
Yet suggestibility is the very quality
that the pupils must grow out of. In
creaSingly they must act not through
suggestion or even imitation, but by
reason. That's what all this teaching
in and by leadership leads to; acting
and leading by reason. The group
leader makes the group conscious of
why such action is best; why this is
truth and that error, this wise and that
not so wise. Cooperation is not merely
team or group habit. but a partici-
patton in the spirit and the reason for
the joint enterprise. All that is in
volved in the psychology of group lead
ership. The teacher instructs and the
teacher gets a pattern, but most Of all
he and she are group leaders Whist
they teach is an ideal of mental fitness.
