TY COBB CELEBRATES! TENTH AnNIVERSHRY I I Champion Batsman of American League Has Played Wonder * ful Path of Fame Detroit. Mich., Aug. 26. Tyrus Raymond Cobb, often referred to as the greatest baseball player in the world, to-day celebrated the tenth an- | niversary of his debut as a major league player. No special ceremony. was planned by Detroit fans to mark j the occasion, but it was expected that I Cobb would receive an unusual demon- j stratian and probably something, more substantial—from his friends ! this afternoon when he stepped to the plate in the last game of the impor tant series with Boston. Cobb's path of fame which he blazed for himself has probably never been equaled in the history of base ball. For eight successive seasons he has been champion batsman of the American League. His average for the present season is about .380 and it seems almost a human impossibility for any of his rivals to wrest the crown from him this year. No batter has ever made such a record. Ousted Regular On August 26, 1905, a tall, nervous appearing boy of 19 years from the Augusta, Ga., club in a class C league donned a Detroit uniform and was sent to center field by Manager "Bill" Armour to replace Dick Cooley. The player was Cobb. Cooley never got his job back. Cobb became a regular that afternoon and has never been benched. Only once in these ten years has the mighty Tyrus been replaced by a pinch hitter. When Cobb was a youngster "Doc" White, of the Chi cago club, was his nemesis: Catcher Freddie Payne was sent to bat for Cobb against White on the single oc casion. In 1906, his first full season, Cobb hit .320. That has since been his low mark. Cobb has always played right or center field. Only one day during his Detroit career did he perform else where. He acted as volunteer second baseman, and Cobb, as well as Man ager Jennings, admitted after the game that the infield did not lose anything when the Georgian's first manager made an outfielder of him. MAJKSTIC VAUDEVILLE Now that the new vaudeville season is rapidly dawning, naturally our at tention is turning to the vaudeville at tractions that are coming to entertain Harrisburfc vaudeville enthusiasts dur ing the first week. At the outset it is claimed by the management that the bills that are to be presented will be a high standard of Keith excellence. The greatest change will be that the vaude ville moves over to the Majestic and also the fact that there are to be three performances each day. The program that is announced for the opening bill will contain one of the most popular comedy acts that ever appeared at the OraMeum. It is the Avon Comedy FcflT vaudeville's most celebrated com edy quartet, presenting a new routine of fun sprinkled with the latest song lilts. This quartet possesses splendid voices and as comedians they are won derfully clever. Another of the im portant turns will be a clever comedy sketch called "Legal Advice," enacted by Ttyan, Tomlinson and company. Marion Weeks, a winsome singing com edienne, who seems to be just the type of an artist that Harrisburg takes to, will make her first local appearance with a budget of new and tuneful lyrics. Simpson and Dean, young man and woman, in a breezy patter and songs, and Gaston Palmer, the unique comedian, will complete the offering that is to be presented during the first half of the week. The bill for the last half will be headed by the Wharry, Lewis Four, offering a vocal and instru mental act; Cantor and Lee, two come illans of musical comedy fame. Other attractions will include the Three Eng lish Girls, dancers; Walter Brower.com edian, and Cummins and Seaham, com edy tumblers.—Advertisement. "THE CUMBERS" AT THE COLONIAL To-night Is the last opportunity for the movie fans of the city to see "The i Climbers," the great society drama photoplay featuring the Colonial pro- ! gram yesterday and to-dav. To-morrow and Saturday the headllner at the ' photoplay house de luxe will be Frank Daniels, the great comic opera come dian. In "Crooky," a comedy of errors i In five reels. "The Climbers" is a fast moving drama dealing with society life and high finance. George Soule Spencer and i Gladys Hanson are seen In the princl- I pal roles. The story preaches a power- i ful sermon and Is full of tense situa tions and gripping action. When the storm clouds of the heroine's troubled i life clear away the bubble of frenzied finance has broken and all is over ex cept happiness for her and the one man who really loves her. Frank Daniels, in "Crooky Scruggs," the headliner for to-morrow and Satur day, is said to be a scream bv the New York Morning Telegraph. Daniels plavs Crooky Scruggs, a convict who escapes and swaps Identities with Colonel Bob Roberts, a wealthy rancher, on his first trip East. As Bob Roberts he is en thusiastically received by John Dough Roberts' nephew, a Wall Street broker, who Is mostly "broke." Susan Dough, a comedy character, pursues the bogus Colonel. Finally the real Colonel catches up and Crooky goes back to his nice, quiet cell. Crooky's adventures in society are. needless to say, excruciat ingly funny. Every scene is full of laughs. The plpeorgan concerts at 2 to 5 and 7 to 11 at the popular Third and Mar ket street photoplay house, are making Herman Teager the talk of the town's musical circles.—Advertisement. "THE HOI SE OF THE LOST COURT" AT THE REGENT To-day, the last of Viola Dana In "The House of the Lost Court," a master plc- Thin Men and Women DO YOU WANT TO GET FAT AND HE STRONGf The trouble with most thin folks who wish to gain weight Is that they insist on drugging their stomach or stuffing it with greasy foods; rubbing on use less "flesh creams." or following some foolish physical culture stunt, while the real cause of thinness goes un touched. You cannot get fat until your efcigestlve tract properly assimilates the Tood you eat. There is a preparation known to reli able druggists almost everywhere, which seemingly embodies the missing elements needed by the digestive organs to help them convert food into rich fat-laaen blood. This preparation is called Sargol and much remarkable testimony is given as to Its successful use In flesh building. Sargol, which comes in the form of a small non-in lurious tablet, taken at meals and mix ing with the digesting food, tends to prepare its fat, flesh and muscle build ing elements so that the blood can readily accept and carry them to the starved portions of the body. You can readily picti'*e the transformation that additional and previously lacking flesh making material should bring with your cheeks filling out, hollows about your neck, shoulders and bust disap pearing and your taking on from 10 to 20 pounds of solid healthy flesh. Sargol is harmless, Inexpensive, efficient. George A. Gorgas and other leading druggists of this "lclnlty have It and are authorized to refund your money If weight Increase Is not obtained as per the guarantee found In each large pack age. NOTE;—Sargol Is recommended only as a flesh builder and while excellent results In cases of nervous Indigestion, etc., have been reported care should be taken about using It unless a gain of weight is desired.—Advertisement.

Electric Equipment Is Safest For the Home "Safety In the home 1b first in the housewife's thoughts; after safety is secured she then sets about to make her work efficient and to practice economy. Safety Is not less a scien tific endeavor than to save money and promote comforts in the home." These words of Mrs. Frank A. Pat tison, manager of the Household Ex periment Station of the New Jersey Federation of Women's Clubs, lends new emphasis to a report just issued which shows that during the past year more than 1,000 children died as a result of eating the tips of matches. Matches caused $30,000,000 damage by fire during the same period. The same report states that less than 'i per cent, of all the fires are caused by electricity. Electricity's advantages in the home begin with safety first; then comes health, control, comfort and con venience. Next to safety from acci dents comes health. The illuminant absorbing the least amount of oxygen is undoubtedly the best.
