'Take this youiiK lady's sultcane to the dressing room." I thankeu mm ana followed the uarky down the aisle. As I passed the berth In which the mother sat, that blessed baby held out Its arms and cooed to uie. "He thinks you are his little sis ter," smiled the woman graciously. I stopped for a moment, Uiltv enough to touch the baby's hand aud with a proml.se of coming back soon I made my way to the dressing room. "What a beautiful world it is." 1 thought as I dismissed tho smiling porter at the door and proceeded to make a toilet as well as I could on the rushing train. I jraided my hair demurely and wound It for tho first tlmo around mtny head. It had been hanging In two grent plaits as 1 passed from my berth to the dressing room. As I looked at myself In the glass In great approval, I could not help thinking of what Mummy Lai would say If she could see her "chil' " In grown-up array. I had a feeling, though, thut my dresses were too long for n grown-up young lady. I remembered they were very short In the fnshlon books and oven Naomi Insisted that real stylish girls wore their dresses much shorter than ours, but grand father Insisted that mine should come below my shoetops. "The wo men of my family nniKt have Borne modesty If all the others In the world are shameless," lie thundered nt sight of one of my shortened skirts. Aunt Virginia had thouslilfiill) given nie a leather bag for my mon ey and told inn, ns she buckled 1! about mi waist, that I must never fake It off. Now I carefully removed a couple of bills to my pockethook and with a face Hint shone for wont of powder nnd from plentiful use of soap, I made my way to the dining car, devoutly hoping that no one would realize this wns my first long trip. I was going to tho other end of the diner, where I saw the womnn who had the dnrllng baby, when the waiter pulled out a chnlr nt a table for two. I was too self-conscious and diffident not to take the first seat offered and. limine seated myself. 1 AROUND TUB TOWFf Goodrich Ttr Service. Be us. V. A. Lockwood Motor Co.

"I thought you were about twelve when you tried to carry that great big grip through the car this morn ing, but now I can readily see you are sixteen and very old for your age." "You are Just like grandfather," I paid petulantly. The man grew red and then laugh fd. "Well, 1 knew I was getting on toward thlrtv-flve and thirty-five must look old to sixteen, but I had not renlized that I had reached the grandfather class."

Baseball has never known a great er figure, fiction never a more color ful and romantic hero tban George (Babe) Ruth. The rise of the chubby, nineteen-year-old boy from the obscurity of a walled Industrial school to the pin nacle of fame, from poverty to af fluence, makes one of the greatest stories of a decade. Hut for one of those Btrokes of fate, which turn the destinies of great men's lives, Da be Hulh might now be an obscure tailor or an un known cigar-maker Instead of the greatest ball player the game, ever has ever known. Ilube Ruth Is the pride of the base ball fan, the Idol of the kids aud the biggest Individual figure In sport be cause he was. born with a baseball eye audi he developed It from the time he was able to swing a hat. lie put heart and soul Into base ball", and he rose until he became the greatest hitter of all time;, and a drawing card -that broke the attend ance record in every park In the American League last year. The "Babe," started like one of Horatio Alger's embryo heroes of the sldms. He was born of humble par ents In nnltlmore on February 7, 1 894. I'nable to make both ends nieet, his parents turned him over to Ihe Mrothers of St. Marys Industrial School In llaltlmore before he was seven years old. It has been wrong ly stated that the youngster was In corrigible and had to be turned over to the school for correction. With the exception of a few sum mer periods when he was paroled under the care of his father, bo re mained at St. Mary's until he was ninoloen years of age. From the time he entered the In stitution ho played baseball. Spring,, summer, fall, and even on the sunny days of winter, he was out on the diamond. He pitched, he caught, played the Infield and the outfield with equal ability, but It was his hatting that made him the most treasured player on the various teams of a league organized among the inmates of the school. While his wholo heart was In base ball, he prided himself upon the strength of the big, healthy body that made him adept at wrestling and gymnastic sports. He boasted of his hardy body and used to wear an open-necked shirt during the most severe of winter weather. Tie became a subject for concern when he reached the age of nine teen. Unsophisticated by bis long confinement and possessed of great vitality nnd energy, the Rrothers at the Institution hnd fears of what would happen if he were given his liberty without having a watchful eye over him. Having observed his baseball tal ' nt and feeling Biire that he could make a success of tho professional came, the president of the Institu tion nsked Jack Dunn, manager of Hie rial'imore International League, to r'.vc him a trial.

Herbert Adam commendation of bis guardians and took him to Baltimore In January, 1914. A week ahead of the club he went to the training cump at fay itti-vllle, N. C, where he caused 1 sensation by his hitting. Dunn start ed him as a p".cher. aud ho made good at once by defeating the Phil lies, the Athletics and the Giants. I The Baltimore Club went on the ' rocks, when the Federal League In I raded, and Dur.n had to get rid of his 'star players. He sold Ruth, Shore 'and Kgan to the Boston Red Hox for I $25,000. I Ruth continued as a pitcher with Mhe Red Sox. aud he was a mighty good one, perhaps th? best southpaw In the league. Hut his batting was attracting more attention, in 1915 he won 18 out of 2j games and batt ed .315. In 1910 he won 23 out of 36 games and batted .272. In 1917 be won 24 out of 37 games and batt ed .325. Realizing then that he was too valuable a man to be kept on the bench three or four games a week, the management of the club started utlng him alternately in the box, on first base and in the outfield. In 1918 he pitched and won 13 out of 20 games and bailed .300. In the field he was bundling himself ac ceptably. It was In 1919 that he jumped In to the spotlight as a home-run hitter and started the records that biazea his across our baseball sky. He pitched 14 games, winning 9 of them. He batted .322 and knocked 29 home runs, breaking all records. Baseball had one of Its greatest sensations in the winter following the 1919 season, when Harry Frazee owner of the Boston Reds sold Ruth to the New York Yankees for an an nounced sum of $125,000, but rum ored to be greater. Ruth was admitted to be the greatest figure iu the game, but the business sagacity of Colonels Rup pert and Huston, owners of the Yan kees, was questioned. Ruth brought with him a contract for $20,000 a year, and it was predicted that the star slugger might be a "bust" and his purchasers never would get a return on their investment. However,, the deal proved a great money-maker In the 1920 season, when Ruth did the Impossible and knocked 54 home runs. He broke the attendance record in every ball park, paid for himself in receipts and returned the club owners an es timated profit of close to a half-million. He broke even the 1920 home- run record In 1921, and ngain made the team a big financial winner. Miller Hugglns, manager of the Yankees, made a good right fielder out of him and, in addition to his slugging, he became one of the most consistent hitters In the league. With nil of his success, tho head of the great star was not turned. He Is still the same unassuming, rather boyish youngster that came out of St. Mary's. He loves baseball nnd he plays every game with nil his heart and soul. Opposing pitchers, managers and players admit he is the irreatest of the ereat.
