He said two strikes and knew the catcher would never reach the ball, so he swung at it and ran, landing safe at first. The play was so odd that there was some dispute over it how it should be scored. 0°09 Arlie Latham, clown coach for the Giants, has been in the game a long time. ‘‘This is my thirty- first year in spangles,”’ said Lathain “and I am feeling just as chipper as ever. During my travels over the league circle I frequently see men with silver-tinted locks who were numbered among the young bloods when I broke into the game. Sometimes they hunt me up and ask me about games in which I participated many years ago.” oo 6 Bert Kelly of Chicago, pitcher with the Omaha Western league team, has brought suit against the Burlington Railroad Company for $25,000 for injuries sustained in a wreck which physicians de- clare will keep him out of baseball for the rest of his life. After the injury Kelly pitched one good game. Then as pains in his shoulder continued, he was told by Chicago specialists there was a small bone broken. oo 9 “Mike Kelly,’’ said Charlie Nichols, so long the star pitcher {= THE COSY CORNER = DEVOTED PRINCIPALLY TO THE INTERESTS OF WOMEN i ——> This is a little section of the paper, which from day to day will be devoted to subjects of special interest to women.

The hope is expressed that “The Cosy Corner” will fill a social need. a ——= === SAVINGS TO HOUSEWIFE PROMISED BY RECIPROCITY During the past few years there has been a constant cry from the housewives that the cost of living has been going up. Every house- keeper knows that for one reason or another the expense of maintaining a table has seemed to steadily increase. General prosperity has led to some extravagance, and as a philosopher of the day put it: ‘‘It is the cost of high living rather than the high cost of living." At the same time, it would be easy toname dozens of daily necessities that are more expensive in Canada today thar they were ten years ago. Trade combinations and egreenients have had not a little to do with this. One of the features of the reciprocity agreement now before the country is the reduction of duty on a number of staple articles of food. The reduction is not large in any instarce, but the protest that has come form the manufacturers of some of the items in this country lose a little of the large profit they have been able to exact under the existing tariff. Some of the itenis affected, and the tariff reduction made, by the reciprocity agreemert with the United States are as follows: Duty Under Reciprocity Articles Present Duty LOONO, SUM. 5, . 5. oh ga hbwanien sy 3c Free Sweet potatoes, bushel... 10c Free Salmon, prepared.............. 30 p.c.

Until some one discovers a way of breaking Canada off the Ameri- can continent and towing her away to some secluded spot in the southern sea, says the Toronto Star, it is likely that the Dominion will continue to be affected to some extent by periods of de- pression in the United States. But it is difficult to see what some of the anti-reciprocity papers with was trying to argue in connection with the present industrial con- ditions in the United States and their effect on Canada when reci- procity goes onti effect. The reciprocity agreement, affecting ap- preciably only foodstuffs, will not make Canada any more vulnerable to these attacks than she is now. All people, even Americans, must eat, even during hard times. The present hesitancy in trade in the United States, in so far as there is hesitancy, is, however, of the greatest significance to Can- G.R. NADEN COMPANY Limited.

News are so assiduously trying to put upon it, The hesitancy in trade in the United States is due to two prime causes: 1. Abuses of the protective tariff which now require drastic treatment, and which doubt can orly be applied with certain industrial condi- no The Liberals stand for the British preference which marvelously help disturbances of ed in the development of Can- uons. 2. The failure of the crops of; 1911 in the United States. The Government report shows poorer conditions at date than for many years past. The significance to Canada. of both of these conditions is obvious. In particular, the failure of the crops will prove of the highest immediate importance to Canada as soon as reciprocity goes into effect. Poor crops in the United States mean higher prices than ever. Canada basks in the favor of Providence and 1911 sees the most important harvest in her history. Access under reciprocity to the American markets, with their prom ised high prices, for Canada’s bounteous crop is to the Canadian farmer just like finding a gold mine. He will not be deterred from adian trade. Reciprocity will do the same. : Test for Eggs There are several tesis for fresh eggs. One of the simplesi is that recommended by the government. A 10 per cent solution of ordinary table salt and water is the medium. Into this an egg is put. A strictly fresh egg will sink at once to the bottom of the glass containing ihe liquid.
