NKW YORK, Sept. 28. — Whether
Ty Cobb Is losing his title as king
of baseball Isn't entirely demonstrated
by his tremendous hatting average for
the year. On a rerent visit to New
York Cobb, besides doing most of the
baseball hammering, pulled a play
or tWo that by sheer audacity simply
stunned Yankees and spectators alike
Ty had driven out a home run and
then had singled. He went to second
base, and when Veach reached first
base the two of them worked a double
steal, leaving Cobb bn third and Veach
on second On a ball hit to the Infield
by Burns, Cobb sprinted for the plate
and Veach for third. Cobb saw he
couldn't make It and easily beat Wal
ters' throw to third, only to find that
Veach was there also,
Walters completely lost his head,
dashing to third, he tagged both run
nera, putting Veach out. Then he saw
Burns wildly footing It for second and,
forgetting the plate was unoccupied,
whipped the ball to second to get
Burns. That was Cobb's cue. Like a
flash he was up and off. He was with
In ten feet of the plate before Walters
knew what was going on, and scored
] with no trouble.
__
Sam Crawford, the Detroit veteran,
did not make the last trip east. Hugh
Jennings has decided to keep him out
of the game for all time, reserving him
'only for pinch hitting.
Connie Mack recently declared that
Cruise and HornBby. of the Cardinals,
are the finest looking young players
| In baseball. He predicted that Horns
by eventually would attain the same
1 degree of excellence voted Jack Barry.

STRAIGHT TALK.
If you can hold your tongue when
German backers
! Are loosing theirs and damning Unc
le 8am;
If you can keep from cussing out the
slackers
Flaying smug hypocrisy and sham,
If you can wait and not be tried by
waiting, .
While the reptile papers keep us on
the rack;
If you can stand the paclflstic prat
ing,
And never have a yearning to strike
back.—
If you can see your country’s cities
plastered
With sycaphantic warnings against
war;
If you can watch a yellow livered
dastard
| Refusing to confront things as they
are;
I If you can see a swarm of crawling
lizards,
: Squirming through the marrige
license door—
Men with atom souls and smaller
gizzards.
Disgracing those who honored nameH
they bore —
If you can hear an orator denouncing
The liberty for which our nation bled
If you can let him go without a
trouncing
Or punching In the bally traitor's
head;
If you can smile when lying propa
1 gauda,
j Seduces men who ought to know the
truth;
If you can tolerate their rotten slun
der
| And bear it with and idle flat, for
sooth—
! if you can sneer at men who wear
the kahki,
j Or jeer at those who wear the navy
blue;
I *f you can whisper like a skulking
lackey,
I About the men who have the nerve
to do;
If vanquishment of brutal foes ap
palls you,
If you can't prove your right to be
a man—
You may be everything your mother
calls- you,
But, believe me, you are not an Am
erican.
FEMININE FANCY!
i
FILET LUCE
(Margaret Mason In United Press)
Though bullets and billets
First hold our attention.
Still frocks, frills and filets
Come In for a mention.
I^ace, lace, lace! This Isn't an ad
monition to pull your corset strings
unduly. It is simply a general de
scription of the most paramount de
tail of feminine fixings at the present
moment. I>ace' these days means only
one kind of lace, too, and that's filet.
, You know it's the kind with the
square mesh like a modified Page
fence. It’s all on the square anyway
and has floral designs spreading over
it,, like vines on a trellis or else ani
mals cavorting over It's cross bars like
the June bugs and bird cmfwfwyfwy
toes on our screened front porch.
The real honest to goodness filet
Is, of course, the handsome kind, to
acquire whose square meshed lengths
enmashes you in debt to great lengths.
Dainty edging of the hand made filet
finishes collars and cuffs of the most
exquisite lingerie waists as well as
the lingerie frocks of (leorgette, organ
die or handkerchief linen and elabor
ate Insets and insertion, narrow or
wide, garnish them to their fill with
filet.
Boudoir caps of the coarser meshed
imitation filet are most attractive and
one made from a yard length of very
wide all-over filet edging is simple and
seductive. The lace is seamed to
gether and gathered at the apex. It
has a crush of wide satin ribbon hold
ing it in closely around the l^adsize.
The ribbon Is set on about two inches
above the lacy edge which is left to
flop softly around the face. The cap
of cross-bar mesh is guaranteed to
screen effectually a multitude of hair
curlers.
curr ana collar sets or real or imi
tation filet have all the fairest femi
nines around the throat and wrists.
Indeed a collar of any other lace save
filet is spurned with great choler.
Handkerchiefs of the mode and the
moment are bordered with the finest
and narrowest filet edge and veils
though naturally not of the linen
thread ape the filet lace in motive and
mesh.
Though on the surface of things you
would imagine all the filet was in full
view, judging from its prevalence,
there is also a great abundunce under
cover, or at least partially so. It Is
most popular for lingerie garnishing
and edges and trims wash satin, ntus
lln, crepe de chene or Georgette chem
ises, nighties, petticoats and under
vests in impartial perfection.
That essential garment known mys
teriously in Paris as a “cache corset,”
and equally mysteriously In London as
a "camisole,” we designate more sor
didly and frankly as a corset cover
or an under bodice and by any name
know it to be most lovely when made
of all-over filet lace and strung with
shell pink satin ribbon.
Filet has even invaded the hearth
and home as well as our personal ap
parel apurtenances, not only Is it om
nipresent richly encrusting table lin
en, lunch cloths, dinner cloths, lunch
eon sets and napkins, but it has the
guest towels, the face towels and even
the bath towels in its meshes.
Filet crochet done in Insertion and
edging is used for towel trimming and
crochet filet squares showing an in
itial or a monogram are set in with
stunning results. All the feminine
hands not busily wielding knitting
needles of amber or bone on socks
and sweaters for soldiers and sailors
are busily chauffeuring bone or steel
crochet hooks through the mazes of
filet mesh for bathroom embellish
ment.
Tuning forks that are unaffected hy
temperature, therefore are accurate
under all conditions, have been in
vented by a Frenchman.
-»
Attachments to enable electric light
fixtures to be hung vertically from
planting ceilings have been patented
hy a Chicago man.
-»
A machine wrench invented in Eu
rope has a pivoted jaw that enables it
to grasp five of the six sides of a hex
agonal nut at once.
