“DOING” GIRLS’ HAIR ample diversion in the coiffures FOR CHILDREN. W| sdom In Changing the Place of Bow and Parting—. Ribbon Fillets for Decoration of Very Small Girls. There is ample diversion in the colfture arrangements meted out to the lite girl of this generation, far more in tlle old days. Formerly, a th t eF ° Dce having satisfied herself a a certain design suited her daugher, adhered to that design until the Hie cam© for the hair to be “done up. . y° change the mode in which the nair is worn from time to time Is good or it.

one place may cause the locks beneath v It to become thin, just, as a parting constantly made in one position tends to broaden. The use of artificial means of curling and waving the hair, other than the old-fashioned soft rags and the plait, are generally condemned, and it is held to be a species of torture to subject a nervous child to any form of 3urling whatever, on account of the discomfort entailed. ' Even to curl only

HAVE REGULAR MENDING DAY

Wise Housewife Will Set Aside a Period for the Repair of All Her ' Clothing. There is nothing on earth like system; and nowhere do you realize this more than in matters of dress. The tiny hole in your stocking, that you might have mended in two minutes, grows Into an undarnable “run"; the rip under the arm in your new blouse extends alarmingly; nothing that must be mended stays “where it is put.” The remedy for all this is a regular mending day—or a regular mending evening, if you are a business woman. As soon as a garment needs mending—if it be only a button or a hook that must be replaced—put it aside, unless it is so necessary that you must attend to the trouble at once; and when mending day rolls around do the required sewing. You will be surprised to find how much lighter your work becomes when you can thus catch rents and tears at their start instead of at their disastrous finish. The other point to remember is always to have your sewing implements where you can get them and in perfect order. Do not wait until the very moment for mending to find that you are out of white thread or that your needles are rusty. When a thing needs repairing, repair it; when it needs replacing, replace it. It might even be a good thing to have a regular "preparation day" to antedate the mending one.

A Beauty Secret.

If you want to look pretty when dipping afternoon tea or eating the post-matinee ice, bear this in mind: See that the hat you wear is lined with a color that matches the spots in your eyes. The woman with blue eyes will choose a blue lining and the bit of color above the face, peeping beneaeth the mashionable mushroom brim, is very charmingChoose street silk or velvet for the hat facing if the eyeß are steel, green if the eyes shade into hazel. If the %yes are black, black or cream White should be chosen. This is but one of the many little things which help amazingly in the quest for good l oo^B -

Sash for Slender Figure.

The slender woman, who cannot wear the too narrow girdle, should try the sash wlth the “P um P” or °M bow worn in front, its folds arranged ■ln perfectly flat ,O °P S and the whole of stiff wlde r,bbon - Tbe effect Is most becoming and very easy to wear, besides being extremely fashionable.

the ends of the hair implies weighting the tresses with hard rolls that will render the child’s slumbers restless. Some little girls are much more sensitive than others and require a specially soft touch when their hair is brushed. The process should be Undertaken with a gentle, steady and soothing hand, morning and night, after which the hair should be plaited loosely to preve'nt tangles and broken hair during the hours of sleep. The comb should be Used with particular care, not the full length of the locks at first, but little by little, extending its range after all tangles stave been removed from the. ends, until the whole length may be combed through without encountering a single knot. A silk handkerchief used to burnish the hair has the effect of producing a soft gloss, but no artificial aid, such as grease, should be necessary. Jt is asserted by many mothers that brushing an infant's hair upwards when it is damp has the .effect of making it curl, and that the curling tendency will continue as long as the hair is twisted round the fingers, even after it has reached a length of many inches. Ribon fillets and bows are the chosen decoration of the coiffures 1 of very small girls, adapted to suit the different dressing chosen. If there be a center parting and the hair is to be tied up out of the way plaits are made and bound with ribbon at the ends, or the hair is looped up and the bows ap!>ear above the ears. Some' little girls ook very quaint and charming with their “pigtails” wound spirally over the ears, a method that is useful when the hair is to be protected as much as possible from sand showers on the seashore. The simpler the mode of arrangement when a little girl’s hair is dressed for polite occasions, the better for her appearance and the well-being of her pretty tresses. The side parting, the center parting and the straightly cut fringe all have their exponents. Hair “as lank as a yard of pump water” is not so often seen, and immoderately crisply curled or ondule locks are taboo. The happy mean is the best choice of all, and the ways in which it is secured should be compatible with the child’s comfort and the well-being of the hair.

FOR THE AFTERNOON

Evening Wraps.

Many of the new evening wraps, particularly the broadcloth ones, are almost in Louis XV. style, with a rather tight belt around the waist and long slashed sleeves with lace ruffles. Empire wraps are also seen, 'mostly in chiffon and linen and matching the frock, dr else in black. Mauve Is another general favorite for these. Gilded evening coats of corded silk are a pretty novelty, and so is pink crepe, lined with black chiffon or soft silk. These last named capes are usually draped in one of the charming fashions which have the advantage to the home dressmaker of being simplicity as well as beauty Itself.

To Even a Skirt Edge

Finish the skirt at the top and put it on Just as you would wear it Rub chalk on the edge of a table and, standing against it turn around so the chalk mark will encircle the skirt Take off the skirt and measure from the chalk mark an equal distance all around to the hem. Since the chalk mark is well below the hips, the difference in length will bo above that

MAGIDSOHN, STAR OF GAME

A.s the recent game between Michigan and Syracuse, which was won by the former, was a test of the western Interpretation of the new titles, so severely criticised recently by Walter Camp as against the accepted eastern version, the contest was watched closely by eastern football critics, who failed, generally speaking, to see where Camp’s criticism was merited. Some of Michigan’s plays were, it is trqe, new to the eastern gridiron this year, but most of the new style of

CAPT. MANLEY OUT OF GAME

Northwestern Received Severe Setback When Left Half-Back Received Serious Injury. Northwestern received a severe setback when Captain Manley was put out of the game for the rest of the season through an Injury sustained in the contest with the Maroons. His leg was so badly swollen for a time that he was unable to leave his bed. Coach Hammett feels that he made a serious mistake when he allowed Captain Manley to re-enter the game after he had once been taken out, as

it was in the last period that he received the worst injury. The loss of Manley is a very serious blow to the Purple eleven. Captain Manley probably will be succeeded at left half by Reese, or by “Germany" Schulz, who has been dislodged from his old position at right half by the excellent work of Ray Lamke.

ANDERSON, GOLF “PRO.,” DEAD

Widely Known Player Falls Victim to Hardening of Arteries—Was 31 Years Old. Willis Anderson, professional golfer at the Philadelphia Cricket club, and one of the most widely known exponents of the game, died at Philadelphia the other day of hardening of the artqries. He was 31 years old and _ was born in Scotland. ' Tom Anderson, his father, a famous golfer, is connected with the Montclair Q<. J.) Golf club, and Tom Anderson, Jr., a brother, also a high-class golf player, is professional at the Inwood club. New York.

football advanced was anticipated by “Tad” Jones’ pupils and the forward pass was the only play which netted Michigan any material gains. Michigan used weight in the line smashes and made long gains on these plays.' Edmonds and Wells made good ends and Magidsohn seems to have found his right position at left back. His plunges were one of the features of the game, and he also carried off the scoring honors, making both of Michigan’s touchdowns.

FOOTBALL

Heine Schoelkoft is assisting in coaching the Cornell varsity back field. By the way, is there any diminution in the number of flying tackles used? The loss of Earl Pickering is causing considerable worry in the Gopher camp. Officials appear to be slower than coaches and ''players in grasping the new rules. Captain Dean Is playing at quarter for the Badgers and is infusing new life into the team. Isn’t it lucky there’s no such thing as a national commission for football? But then there is the rules committee. Some day when we have lots of time and space we will try to compare football teams by scores; not until then. Football players complain of their troubles with the new rules. Still they don’t have to read explanations of them in the papers. . In view of this season’s happenings, it doesn’t seem as if it were all Fred Speik’s fault that Purdue did not have a winning team last year. Michigan football players are said to mar their fast team work by wrangling over the plays to be used. Too many orators, says Yost The new football rules don’t seem to* have 'affected the length and breadth of tild list of killed and injured to any great extent. Deming and Vansinderen, two of Yale’s first string of backs, have been dropped back to the scrubs on account of their poor performances. A former football coach says ttfe game will never be/a success until the rules of the American college and English Rugby games are combined. Football experts the west over are agreed that the fault of the Maroon team lies in the forwards. The linemen are said to be exceptionally weak. Comparison of baseball and football ticket scalping doesn’t look so bad for the diamond game when It is learned that a ticket to the Yale-Har-vard game sold for SSO. It used to be quite the thing to wager a team would not score, but with the forward pass and the rest of the open game the man who makes such a bet now Is regarded as a sucker. An eminent statistician asserts that 99 per cent, of the injuries suffered in football this yeaer are confined to the arms and legs of players, one per cent, being of a serious and lasting nature. Any time that the University of Chicago students get the blues by watching the work of their football warriors they might turn to the cables which tell how the baseball nine is winning in the Orient.

Following the death of Ralph Wilson, right half back on the Wabash (Ind.) Colege football team, it announced that football will be discontinued by the Wabash college. Wilson was hurt in a trick play such as is encouraged under the new rules, according to Dr. D. C. Todd, secretary of the athletic board, who holds th* new rules responsible tor the death.

GRANDSTAND OF THE FUTURE

Poetic Prophet Tello What It Will Be Like When All the Contests Are In the Air. Ah, the grandstand of the future— I can see it in my dream, where, crowded thick like packed sardines, we’ll watch the white wings gleam. The wings of angels? you will ask—oh, reader, do not mock, but hold your breath as still as death and harken to my talk. The grandstand of the future—it’s not built of girders strong, nor fashioned out of lumber, to hold the yelling throng; but as the ships go sailing past—oh, no, ’tis not the sea, for yachting bouts will be too tame, I think, for you and me. These ships, forsooth, are in the air, and it is of their wings of which 1 fain would talk to you along" with other things. And, instead of future races forming, necks like giraffes from rubbering through the atmosphere to watch the sailing throng, some genius with an idea, a novel way he’ll found for watching aeronautics lying flat upon the ground. The grandstand of the future —you go hustling to the gate, make a purchase of your ticket and leave the rest to fate; for once within that sacred pale, shut off from sponger’s view, you’ll have to find a place to squeeze your anxious body through. The spectators are stretched in rows, are lying still and fiat; no worry over race course clothes, much less a stunning hat; but instead of these adornments that pall on the appetite, goggles form “piece de resistance” all agleam with jewels bright; and in comfortable position with your eyes turned toward the sun, we’ll watch the aviators speed until the race is won. The grand stand of the future —it is coming, never fear; just look and see what has transpired in one brief, busy year. And though you scorn the idea, with derision shout me down, you’ll be first to buy your ticket for that grandstand on the ground.—Kansas City Star.

Still Waiting for Him.

As a rule, the ministers, priests, rabbis and other ecclesiastics, occupying the pulpits of Cleveland churches, greatly enjoy the few minutes of rest and recreation that follow their exacting periods of service every Sunday. On a certain Sunday morning not long ago, Secretary Shinn, of the Cuyahoga County Sunday School Union, was announced to speak at the rally day services of the First United Presbyterian church, Carnegie avenue and East Seventy-first street. Rev. Dr. J. R. j. Milligan, the pastor, sort of hurried the services along in order not to keep Secretary Shinn waiting. Dr. Milligan's theme, “Things That Remain”—taken from a verse in Revelations—was Invested with an extraordinary solemnity, and when he came down from his pulpit everybody almost was under the spell of the minister’s uplifting discourse. Hurrying forward after the sermon, the superintendent of the Sunday school asked importunately: “Seen Mr. Shinn?" “No," replied Dr. Milligan, “no man of that name has shinned in here yet."

Chestnut Blight In Pennsylvania.

Hundreds of giant trees have been obliged to bow to the woodman’s axe and herqic treatment has been applied to thousands of others in the effort to stay the sway of the death-dealing disease familiarly known as the chestnut blight in the campaign inaugurated three weeks ago by a corps of the state forestry department, says the Philadelphia Record. In this brief period, and in the attempt to check the ravages of the disease that in epidemic form threatened to wipe out the vast chestnut groves of eastern Pennsylvania, and particularly in the suburban section of Philadelphia, 10,000 trees have been examined in the neighborhood of Ardmore, liaverford and Bryn Mawr. The alarming extent to which this blight had invaded this section is shown in the reports of these forestry experts, for examinations in minute detail reveal the fact that no less than 50 per cent of the trees in these great groves are infected. In some forests as high as 90 per cent has been noted.

Motion Pictures of Children a Fad.

Society women, -who are accustomed to spend from $3,000 to SIO,OOO a year for photographs of themselves and their children have seized on a new phase of this idea. They are taking to motion pictures and the phonograph. They want motion pictures of their children at play or at parties, so they may. have them in after years just as they have their children photographed several times a year to keep until the children are grown up. Likewise they are keeping records of the voices of the children by phonograph. When the time arrives that both the motion pictures and the phonograph can be made to work synchronously the value of the picture and dudltyry records will be increased. The idea of society women at present is to take moving pictures of their children and to show them at Christmas time or on occasions when the members of the family are gathered together. The fad, of course, is somewhat expensive, but society women have taken to it.

A Pardonable Mistake.

HOW JOHN KLING GOT START

Catcher of Chicago Cubs Says It Was Partly His Own Fault and Partly Bad Luck. BY JOHN KLING. (Copyright, IMO, by Joseph B. Bowles.) How did I get my start? Well, if the young fellows who want to become professional players have as much trouble getting started as I did the crop will be short I think it' was partly my own fault and partly bad luck that I had so much trouble, and the greater part of my fault wae jthat I neither knew my position nor knew the game well enough. Perhaps I had been spoiled by too much success as a seml-profesional player before I tried to get into professional baseball. Also 1 had learned wrong in many things and wanted to play my way instead of playing the way the managers and the experienced players did. ft took me a long time to discover that perhaps they knew more about it in the organized leagues than we did in the amateur ranks. I don't remember the time I did not play ball. I began about the time I started to school. I discovered when I went to work that baseball helped me a lot. I got a job, and was advanced faster and given better chances than the fellows who did not play, so I realized baseball was valuable as a side line. After a time my friends began telling me I was too good for' the semipro game and advised me to go out as a pitcher. I was scared sick, being very young, but I got a job at Rockford, 111., and they fired me before I had my shoes broken in. That sent me back to the semi-pro field. We happened to need a catcher, and being the captain I made myself catcher, because we needed one, not because I was good. It wasn’t long until they told me I was too good a catcher to stay around Kansas City. I took their word for it and went to the Texas league. The only reason I quit there was because the team refused to pay me. I ’ returned to the Schmeltzers again, and after a time signed with St. Joseph as a catcher. I had learned a lot, and the biggest thing I had learned was to keep cool and never lose my temper. I believe a catcher who can keep cool can outthink anyone who lets either temper or excitement get away with him. The catcher need not be brainier, but if he keeps thinking all the' time he will out-think the fellow who loses his head part of the time. I

noticed also that even the appearance of coolness and steadiness on the part of the catcher helps the pitcher and helps the infield. So even when I lost my head I tried to appear perfectly cool. After a time it became habit and part of the job. When I learned that I think I really was getting my start. I was at St Joe only a short time when Chicago got me and brought me to the West Side team. There, with Chance and with smart pitchers, I got started right

UNIQUE DECISIONS IN GOLF

St. Andrews Body Rules Ball Must Be Played on Where It Lays— Query and Answer. ' Local golfers are having a few chuckles over a decision recently made by the rules committee of the St. Andrews body that sets itself up as the oracle of golf rulings. In brief, if your ball lands in the turned-up portion of your trousers or in the rim of your bat, you must play it as it lies, says the Chicago Evening Post. But if the ball were to fall into the caddy bag when you endeavored to drop it on the fair green, you may take it out and redrop it! The St Andrews decision, together, with the query about a dropped ball going into play, that prompted the Scotch club to make the ruling, follows: Huntley Hill Golf Club—(l) Pursuant to a local rule. A lifted his ball dropping it over his shoulder; the ball fell into his golf bag, which was swung over bls shoulder. Was A entitled to .redrop without penalty, egshould he have played the ball from out of the bag, or given up the hole? Some contend that the ball “should be treated as lodging in anything noving” rule 17). (2) Is there any difference in principle between a “ball played into the turnedup part of the trousers which the player is wearing” and a “ball dropping into a golf bag which the player is carrying?” Answer —A was entitled to redrop the ball without penalty. The player, his caddie and his clubs cannot be held to come under rule 17. (?) The difference between the cases mentioned, is that, in the first case, the ball Is in play, and in the second casd» the ball'll not in play until 3
