I.ater he joined the Nationals. He was afterward a member of the Olym pics of Washington, of which Nick Young was the head. In these days Mike Urell. with his (lowing whiskers facing Colonel Jones, the pitcher of the Nationals, who also wore a full beard, presented a pic ture that attracted attention. Urell continued his interest in the game throughout his entire life, and always argued that the game was just as good and strong In the old days, when "first bounce was out," as it is at presenL Profit in Football.

START DUE TO AN ACCIDENT Steinfeldt Star Third Baseman of Chicago Cubs. Gives Credit for Career to Door Mat BY HARRY STEINFELDT. (Copyright. I?!0. by Joseph R Bowles.1 ' I? my father had not stepped over a rug in his office I never would hare j been a professional ball player. It I happened this way. I had been work- ! j mg for an ice machine concern. I | bad played baseball as a boy in Texas. but never thought of it as a means of j making a living, nor had 1 any iuten j tion nf becoming a professional. It ' was fun for me to play ball and I ; j never lost a ehar.ee to get into the game I was a pitcher and catcher and shortstop, but mostly a shortstop, around FVirt Worth. Then I came tc St. Louis and got a job with the ice machine people, to learn the business ' expecting to go into that line of work. My father had his own plant in Texas and ho wrote me to come home and go to work in the office. Visitors ! came in tracking mud across the floor | and father told me to put a mat in ; front of the door for theta to wipe j their feet upon. It happened that a ! couple of days later he hurried into the office, stepped over the mat and ' started to work. 1 caught hint by the i arm and pointed to the mat and jo kingly reminded him of the • fact he • had forgotten to use it. He was wor- ■ I ried about something else and told me j if I didn't like the way he did to work somewhere else. 1 flared up and told hint I would, and went out to hustle 1 for myself. It happened that there j was a baseball tournament at Long view. Tex. and someone offered me money to take a team up to play seven games We had a guarantee ol expnses and we won five straight games—McAllister, now a catcher in i the Eastern league, pitching all five Coming back we met the Houston team on the train and their shortstop ] was hurt, so they offered me a job Then next year I went to Denham tc play with the Paris team, and before long 1 had a hundred dollars. The Harry Steinfeldt. Fort Worth shortstop broke his arm soon afterward and 1 was asked to fill in until he was able to be back on the job. He never got back on the job, for I worked my head off and hit so well they kept me and I bounced front there into faster company and two years later into the National league. I think much of my success was due to the fact that when I was starting at the business I was lucky enough to get in with a bunch of fellows who knew the game, some older and some younger than myself. They made a fellow learn the game and kept me working and thinking all the time to hold my place. Five members of our little club eventually landed In the major leagues and made good. FINDS RACING CLEAN SPORT Former Minister of Justice in New South Wales Talks of Condi tions in Australia. Prize fighting and horse racing are clean and manly sports If properly conducted, in the opinion of Thomas M. Slattery, former minister of justice in New South Wales, and at one time a member of the Australian parlia ment. Mr Slattery spoke before the Irish Fellowship club at a luncheon while in Cbicago the other day. “Horse racing is under the control of the government and nothing that does not savor of true sportsmanship is tolerated. Any Irishman should own a horse or horses, it's born in him. and naturally should take pride in owning the best racers. I have a small string of horses r yself, and it is needless to say I enjoy the race course. “Boxing is a fine, manly sport, and being a bit of a sport myself, I enjoy watching a bout."

Field Marshal Lord Grenfell had to issue an order calling attention to the regulation when he was in command in Ireland. The regulation aims entirely at main taining a smart appearance and dates from shortly after tne Crimean war. when Queen Victoria objected to her soldiers wearing beards. In the navy the rule is that an officer must be either clean shaven or wear "a full set."—London Daily Mail. No Danger of That. Mrs. Stubbs—John, no true man will smoke up his wife’s curtains. Mr. Stubbs—I should say not. Any body that Smokes curtains would be a freak. I prefer clean. tn content. Than to be perk'd up in a glistering grief And wear a golden sorrow Simple and Da:nty Desssrts. What to have for dessert Is the question that arises several hundred times a year. Pies and puddings, like the poor, are "always with us.” but are less wholesome than simpler des serts and fruits. Toast a few marsh mallows cut in quarters and serve wish a few almonds in whipped cream. A most delicious frozen dish is made of two lemons, two oranges, two cups of sugar and two cups of cream; freeze as usual. Gelatine jellies are great favorites, eaay to make and so light that the:- make an ideal dessert after a hearty dinner. Jellied Prunes. Pick over and wash half a pound of prunes and soak several hours in cold water to cover, then cook in the same water until tender. Remove the stones and cut in quarters; to the prune water add enough boiling water to make two cupfuls; soak half a box of gelatine in half a cup of water and stir over the heat until disoived; add one cupful of sugar and a quarter of a cupful of lemon juice; turn into a mold, stirring occasionally to prevent the prunes from sinking. Serve with sugar and cream. Figs and Lemon Sauce. Soak figs several hours in cold wa ter. then cook in water to cover until plump; add a fourth of a cup of lemon juice to the water when nearly done. Drain the figs and serve in a glass dish, with the juice slightly thickened with cornstarch. Chill and serve with whipped cream, flavored with lemon rind. Banana Cantaloupe. Soak two tablespoonfuls of gelatine in half a cupful of cold water. Reat the whites of two eggs slightly, add a fourth of a cup of powdered sugar and three-fourths of a cup of scalded cream; cook over hot water until it thickens; add the soaked gelatine and two-thirds of a cupful of sugar; strain into a pan set in ice water, add four mashed bananas and one tablespoon ful of lemon juice. Stir until it begins to thicken, then fold in the whip from three cups of cream. Line the melon mold with lady fingers, trimmed to fit the mold, turn in the mixture and spread evenly and chill. trenched the wrong How hard the battle goes, the ii;ty how long; Faint not—fight on!

During the fruit season there are many delicacies that may be over looked in the time of preparation, be cause the recipes could not be found or are completely forgotten. Here is a nice confection which may be easily made and which is very dainty; Tomato Figs.—Take six pounds of tomatoes and three pounds of gram ulated sugar; select small yellow or red tomatoes: put them in a colan der and plunge into boiling water for half a minute, remove the skins care fully. not to break the tomatoes. Cover the bottom of a porcelain-lined kettle with a portion of the sugar, put in a layer of the tomatoes, the re mainder of the sugar and another layer of tomatoes. Cook slowly until the sugar has penetrated the center of the tomatoes: lift carefully with a large fork and spread the tomatoes carefully on granite plates and let them dry in the sun. bringing them in each night. Sprinkle while drying with granulated sugar. WBen perfect ly dry put in layers with waxed paper between each. An Aster Luncheon. Aster means star, so an appropriate centerpiece of tin made in the form of a star and filled with delicate lav ender and pink asters with ribbons of the same color radiating to each place, where they are attached to star shaped place cards decorated with hand-painted stars makes a very attractive table. The menu may be carried out with out regard to the color scheme. A pretty custom and one which it is hoped will become popular is the read ing of an interesting story by the hostess or a friend as the entertain ment. Let the noble art of conversa tion not be entirely forgotten over the t bridge table. Those who entertain simply can en .ertain often and thereby are not set ting an example of extravagance to be 'ollowed by a greater one at the next entertainment. Entertainers are al ways looking for something original .’or entertainment. Why not have a iinner or luncheon and with some thing else than bridge whist. Pumpkin Marmalade. Cut eight pounds of yellow pumpkin into small pieces; mix nine pounds of sugar with the pieces and allow to itand 12 hours. Peel six oranges and | six lemons and boil this rind for two hours, changing the water two or 1 three times. Chop the rind, add it to the juice of the oranges and lem ons: mix it with the pumpkin and cook alowly three hours. Put iu glasses and keep in a dark place. Candy for a yellow luncheon may be colored with saffron. Small pat ties of fondant may be colored, then dro- with a teaspoon on a buttered paper. Another attractive way of serving ice cream is in the spun sugar nests, any color ussy be used These nests may be made at home after a little practise, but they may be purchased at five cents each from i the confectioner. _ 9n * SKKMS not umvasomthlc so cvnsMt i vnarrias** on its prao tical side as a business partnership to which woman as well as the man > to contribute: but if she brircs no ItnowK ♦xisre of household affairs, and no oquiv*. • for it. the partnership on its business side is unfair. —Salmon. — The Children's Sunday. To many parents, what to do with the children to keep them happy on Sunday, is a problem. It should be the day of all the week most enojyed; but much depends on how Sunday is observed, whether the child looks fop ward to the day with joy or dread. Children in the home mean self-sac rifice on the part of the parents, but aren't they worth it? After the usual church services nre attended, and by the-way. the wise parents of today take all their children to church as soon as the mother is able to go with them. A child thus reared will be long in the church and never have to be urged to go. One has to remem ber that children are without judg ment. and their little wants must be met. A cooky and a pencil will often be all that is necessary for its con tentment. Let the children have an hour with you of their own on Sunday after noon; it may mean the giving up of a nap or a call, but keep the time for them. Talk over things that have troubled, then read some interesting book closed the previous week at a most interesting point, and keep the book just for Sunday reading. Let the children have some games and toys kept only for use on Sun day. A Noah's ark may be an unend ing source of amusement; talks on the different animals, their homer and habits, teach geography and nature study. Let them use pencil and raper with Bible names to make words, or teach them to spell their names with Bible verses. These may be memor ized. . Very young children show in a short time the g . nera! knowledge gained by the thoughtful companionship of parents. There are several Bible games suitable for different ages that may be used occasionally to vary the program. Another way to Interest children is to allow one to suggest what to have for the Sunday supper, and let them all have a hand in getting it ready. These suggestions may be varied to suit individual needs, and parents with a little thought can originate countless helpful ways of spending the Sabbath as it should be spent, in quiet and with reverence.

To keep chipped ice in the sick room, suspend a flannel bag in a bowl, put the ice in the bag and keep tight ly covered. See that the bag is high enough to be out of the water, as the ice melts and ice will last nearly all night. Try putting the pumpkin through the meat chopper before cooking. It is easily done and it needs little water to cook and in a suort time is tender. If put in the oven to stew it need not be watched as carefully as if cooked on top of the stove. Before removing the ribbon from underwear, sew a piece of tape to the end of ribbon, then draw the ribbon out of the garment from the opposite end. which will draw the tape in. then the ribbon may be removed from the tape, and when the garment is washed the ribbon may be quickly put back in the same manner, as the tape is left in during the washing. Hardly Caught Meaning. Little Mary always learned her gold •n text for Sunday school. One Sun iay the golden text was “Beware of covetousness.” Her mother explained to her what it meant The next day she repeated the golden text for her grandfather.

As my parents used coffee exclusively at meals 1 never knew there was anything to drink but coffee and water. "And so I contracted the coffee habit early. I remember when quite young the continual use of coffee so affected my parents that they tried roasting wheat and barley! then ground it in the coffee-mill, as a sub stitute for coffee. “But it did not taste right and they went back to coffee again. That was long before Postum was ever beard of. I continued to use coffee until 1 was 27. and when I got into office work. 1 began to have nervous spells.
