Twe years age he was broken in health. Tuberculosis had almost wrecked his lithe, superbly muscled body. Millions of fans mourned when The Old Master" hung up his uniform, apparently forever. Today, in "the game of taking the cure," as "Matty" himself phrases It, he is scoring henvily against the malady. In a year, at the most, he xpects te win. Christopher Mathewson, te give him the full name which few fans (ver accord him, is at Saranac Lake, New Yerk, a beautiful spot in the 'Adlrendacks, where balsam-laden lr sweeps ever crags and thr6Ugh Talleys. It has been a memorable two years for "Matty." He 'stretched at ease in a rest chair as ne tern 01 nis experiences. He was en the perch $f his new home, a cozy house lie t leased recently. On a table beside him was a checker beard, a set of "men" and i little pile of newspaper clippings. The clippings described various games of checkers with wnich "Matty" whiles away some of his hours. The great pitcher, perhaps the greatest the diamond ever produced, appeared fit at that moment te walk te the mound and sheet fadeaways ever the plate te the thundering nc elaim of a Pole Grounds crowd. His lerig, supple fingers toyed with the checker pieces as he talked. "It started with bronchitis," he explained. "I went te doctors in Chicago, Bosten and New Yerk and was assured it was net serious. When I first came here I thought I would stay about two weeks. These two weeks have lengthened te two years. "I wish I had kept all the letters of advice that poured in. They would make an interesting book. One man advised me te sleep in a stable with the horses. He said his grandfather had tried it and was cured. Blowing His Hern Was One "Guaranteed" Cure "Anether wrete that 1 ought te get rat of theso long horns used In the Seuth te call tha hunting dogs. The berna are used for 'coon hunting nt night or fox hunting by day. The idea wai te blew the horn frequently. It was guaranteed as an almost infallible nmedy." "Matty" smiled. Then his left hand reached out and stroked a clump of flowers near by. J "They are musk mallow," he ex plained. "I gathered them en the mountainside. Identifying flowers is ew of my hobbies new. That's blad der campien ever there," lie continued, Indicating thin stalks near a glowing nus of petunias. "I have an old Cray's Iletany in the house nnd I get a let of hiu out of gathering and identi fying flowers." ' Here "Matty" dlgu-sed for a mo ment tn speak of the vulue of a Latin nomenclnture for flowers nnd shrubs nnd trees, He told hew the common names of flowers dlffeied in various parts of tie country and hew the bclentiflc names Prevented confusion. "Hew de I feci new? I feel fine. I aaven't had nny sjnipteina for two months. I Imve had 'no 'temp' nnd no coughing and I have almost forgotten ffl' 'trouble Mlik.'

Many n'f his correspondents want te learn hew te fight tuberculosis. "Rest, nourishing feed and sunshine," is "Matty's" recipe. He averages nine hours' sleep every night and sleeps from 2 until U o'clock every afternoon. Walks twice daily, none longer than twenty minutes, arc part of his daily routine. He hat a ride in his motorcar every duy with sixteen-year-old "Matty, Jr.," at the ivheel. The great pitcher fellows the box scores closely, but he has no predictions te offer en the big league contests. He is studying birds and wild flowers and de lights in identifying them. He expects te leave Saranac Lake, N. Y in the fall of 1923. He would like te return te baseball, but has made no plana. uesc twn l-m.-c .. .., . " IbltOl-S llllvlit i-iill -...1 !...

It ICN "t he" ,vns thinking of the ttvr" Ul liters he receive from adoring small boys who would like te repent his triumphs en the diamond. "They want me te tench them hew te Pitch," he went en. "They want te learn by innll. They ask hew the bell should be held and hew it should be whipped up te the plate. They nsk mc te explain the mysteries of the fade away. "They would like te learn hew te size up the batters nnd hew te pitch a ne-hlt game, I couldn't begin te an swer all thelr letters. When I de write Itell them pitching can't be taught by mail." Seme of his youthful correspondents have only the vaguest ideas about "Matty's" location. One typical letter was addressed te: Christy Mathewson, the Adiron dack Meuntnlns." But the address was sufficient te carry the scrawled letter te the wide-Iawned Pnrk avenue house where the great pitcher Is winning back his health. The man who wen 372 games in his big league career was nsked If he ever tossed the ball with Matty, Jr., his sixteen-year-old son, who has wen nen demic laurels nt the Snranac Lake High Scheel. "Ne," he said. "Christy hasn't shown nny Inclination for baseball, He will pick out what suits him heat. When he has finished high school he will go te cellese, prebnbly te Unci;-neil." Sen of the Great Christy Is Ardent Radie Fan Christy, Jr.. nt that moment was off ln the vlllage en business of his own. Like thousands of ether boys of his age, he Is a radio fan, nnd has a re ceiving set which his father occasion ally uses. Mrs. Mnthew.-en was buss ing herself in the uent dining room nnd glanced out occasionally nt her hubband. She makes sure he doesn't overtax his strength. An allusion wns made te "Matty's" recent visit te the Saranac Lake dia mond, his first public appearance since his retirement from the game. "I was amused te read that I had pitched a perfect btrlke that day," he smiled. "As a mutter of fact, the car took me te the mound nnd the bull was handed te inc. I wound up for the benefit of the cameramen, but as for pitching the bnll, well, I told the cutcher te come for it." "Matty" disclosed why he did net hurl the ball. It wns the fear of con cen sentiences, the possibility that (he act of pitching would tear down some of the new tissues that nature Ik building in his lungs, He Illustrated it with a Ilttle story. "There Is a man living near hcie who is what is culled a hemorrhage case. The hemorrhages stepped uiul he was In fine fettle. One duy he saw another man mewing n lawn.

Mr. Mathewson started briskly across the lawn for the car. He Is new forty two years old, but there Is net a touch of gray in his hnlr, which becomes un ruly at times and drops down en his forehead. While playing checkers or rending he wears spcctncles with thin tortoise shell rims. The arms have pressed tiny creases te lili cars. Sen s Chauffeur for Family 'Health' Rides "Matty" and his wife entered the big green car which was backed skill fully Inte Park avenue by Christy, Jr. The meter purred as "Mntty" waved farewell. The machine sturted smoothly along the avenue toward a read skirt ing n mountain kne'l. At the rear of "MattyV home looms .Mount IJaker, clothed with pine trees, a majestic sentinel keeping watch ever Hnrnnac Lake. Other knells nnd ridges surround the village, the mere distant meuntnlns taking en a deep blue tint in the vivid sunlight. Girls ln knickers, golf stockings nnd bright sw enters swing jauntily along the meuntnln reads. The strenm of moterenrs seems endless. Casual glances at the license tags show the great dls- . tanccs some of the cars have trnvelcd. One of "Matty's" favorite rides Is along a read skirting Lake Flower, which was created by damming a part of the Snranac River. Moterbonts chug nleng en its rmoeth surface. On the lnke shore the balsam tang In the air seems Intensified. Busher Games Have Held Upen "The Old Master" The "Old Mnstcr" of baseball, as the weeks ndvance, is likely te slip out occasionally te the bnll field, where Chetker Beard New Field Fer Skill of "Old Master" ft MATTY the Great," one of the greatest -pitchers that ever lived, has become a village checker champ. He spends hours every day with his checker beard, some times playing an opponent, but mere often figuring out the almost endless moves that can be made with the twelve "men." Stretched at case en a vcrccncd veranda with mountains looming en all sides of his house at Sar anac Lake, N. Y "Matty" finds the checker beard a pleasant substitute for the baseball diamond. quickly wns shifted te the pitcher's box when he demonstrated nn nlmest un canny control ever the ball. He had terrific Bpeed nnd a puzzling curve. He developed the famous "fadeaway," the predecessor of the emery ball, the shlne bnl' nnd ethers of that type. It was said he never used a foreign substance en the ball. Karly in the Eeasen of 101C the Reds opened negotiations te obtain "Matty as manager. The deal went through en July 20 and was regarded as one of the most lmpertnnt of the year. His Big League Recerd Still te Be Duplicated As manager of the Cincinnati Beds "Matty" continued te pitch, although 'VSVN,VAM vy Christy Mathewnen at his Snranac Lake home mind bnck te the early days of bis fight for health. He lived In' a non-het:e-kceping apartment house, the only one of Its kind at Saranac Lake, Many health -seekers there live In "cure cot tages," each with six or ten boarders. Was Flat en His Back for Mere Than a Year "I was flat en my back for about a year," he said. "It certainly wns great when the doctors told me I could get up nnd tnke short walks. I have eni big help that many ethers de net have; I have my fnmlly here. That Is a wonderful tonic. "One of the comparatively, new treat ments is called the Inmp treatment. Tt might be called the concentration of nruncini sunshine. I tried It several times, but I caught cold in taking my clothes off for it. "I nm taking the pneumotherax treatment. It is generally cnlle, the 'gas cure,' although nir is used new in stead of the specially prepared gas em pleyed when the treatment wns in vented. , "The idea is te collapse the nffected lung s0 thnt nature will hnvc n better chance of healing It. The right lung wns cellnpsed lu my case. Ordinarily fresh Injections nrc required every week or two. A liquid formed In my case, n condition whicTf most doctors reran! as favorable. This liquid presses en tli lungs nnd helps te keep It in n state of collapse. ' The conversation swung te base ball as "Matty" glanced ever te a ther- memeter nnd noticed it registered 70 degrees. "I would like te be back In the game; I like baseball." he said. He rose up suddenly, ns though gripped by the memory of some grent day en the play ing iieid wlien frenzied rooter wre yelling themselves hearse at a critical moment of n world series game. Rut It seems that Instead of snme epochal day en the diamond "Matty" wns thinking about a nest of chipping spnrrews In n pine tree en his lawn. Even Sparrows Answer Call of Diamond Idel "See that little fellow!" l, r. claimed, pointing te n dewnv feathered fledgling. The sparrow was 'hopping en the grass nenr a wild lilac bush. "It flew en my hand the ether dav." he continued. "I carried it out te 'the grass. It can Just about flv, but It won't leek for feed. It iust Iliinles en the verandas of Sarnnnc Lake. He began fingering his checker pieces ence mere. "Friends cut descriptions of games from papers all ever the country," he said. "I get a let of fun from figur ing out the games. Yeu knew there nrc thousands of varieties of play ; they are almost exhaustlcss. "De I w-erk out any new plays mv sclf? Well, occasionally I see a game In print where I knew it could have been wen nt n certain point. Some times I write te the author and tell him just where the game could have been wen."
