A total of 16 bits and 22 errora fig. uied lo the Helix game. Athena opened tne slugfest in tbe second inn ing, giving Pleroe an awfol drubbing. Doobles by King and Harmon and gin- gleg In a row ty DePeatt and Sbiok went good for three scores, Pleroe was yanked for S. Thome, who stayed until tba frantio sixth when be got bis. In that inning ten Athena batters faoed bim. To do Tborne credit, referenoe to the aoore book shows that he allowed but two hits. These with four errors aud hit' ting Williams with the ball, were re sponsible for font runs. The side was evontnally retired by bim without any assistance from his support, on three strikeouts. He wag replaced by J. Tborne, wbo allowed Brooks to aoore in tbe seventh and the two Williams' in tbe eighth. Shlok went through the game for Atbena and kept bis hits reasooably well soattered, Of tbe eight oharged agalnat bim, the scorer looates fonr in the infield, showing lack of ginger or else Helix hag some splinters for base runners. Ten errora also oontribnte materially to tbe detriment of bis support. . Helix soared two rang ia tbe seoond inning on a two-bagger and infield soratoh, an error and a single. In tbe third another infield hit and two errors delivered a run; two errors, an infield hit and a two-base swipe waa good for three more in tbe fourth ; one in the fifth and one In the sixth were net ted by Helix, one single bit, three er org, an out and a gaoiifioe.

A NEW FRONT PORCH, built along modern lines, oosts not a great deal, adds immeasurably to tbe appearance of the bouae, besides adding greotlr to ita liveable and likeable qualities. ONE OF THOSE MODERN FRONT DOORS, really one of the most attractive features of recently boilt booses. You could have one put in at email oost and witb very little trouble. No one thing would make more notioable improvement. WHY NOT HAVE MORE LIGHT? Larger openings from tbe ball to the adjoining room or belweeu two adjoining roomB, would produce that effeot, witb much additional comfort. Additional light oould be se cured fay putting iu a new single or mnllioo (double) windows. Thi oust of these ohaogns is Blight. The Introduction of a window seat, especially in a bay window, gives added oozinesa at a very Blight additional oost. THOSE NEW BREAMED CEILINGS You bave adm red them in other houses. Eld you ever atop to think tbat tbe higher oeilinga of yonr older bouse would permit of tbe introduction of one of them, most effeot ively at a email outlay? It would make a veiy tine settiug for those new eleotrio futures you would like so mooh. HARDWOOD FLOORS tbose veitiosl grain haidwood floors appeal to the housewife, You would be surprised to know bow easily we oould pat one in for yon light over tbe old oae, witboot tearing np the room, and all at a moat moderate oost.
