THE PUBLISHING GAME.
If a newspaper printed every item oi
news which has a news value, the edi
tor would spend most of his time nurs
ing his bruises, negotiating loans and
fighting libel suits. If a newspaper
omitted every item of news which is
calculated to make unpleasant leading
for the party concerned, the .subscrib
ers would soon luse interest, and the
circulation and the advertising patron
age would dwindle to insignificant
proportions.
What to print and what not to print
is the problem with which every news
paper man is daily confronted. Me
often makes mistakes. lie would not
be huiuau if he did not but years of
close contact with the public have
taught him the lesson which many
other business men have failed to
learn, and that is thai criticism 'hurts
only the critic. If he publishes an
item of news which loses a subscriber
and makes a score of enemies, he
smiles. Jf lie omits an item of news
which the public believes should have
found it place in his columns, he smiles
again. 'It's all in the game and it's
a Kami' which rcmiiies the diplomacy
of a Chesterfield. The man who ex
pects to cumliPct a newspaper willmit'.
making enemies is a fool. It can't he
done. 'o experienced publisher at
tempts to please everybody or to he
pleased with everybody. If he loses
i, subscriber he knows that there
always someone else who is willing
to lake his place on the subscription
'-1. It an advertising patron with
draws his patronage he knows that
the space will be taken by some more
progrev-ive and wide-awake merchant.
In a word, to he a successful news
paper man one must have the pa
tience of Job, the diplomacy of an
ambassador and the charity of a Lin
coln. You must be an optimist and
the word "worry" must be eraeu
from the office dietioiary. The luna
tic asylum yawns for (he editor who
takes criticism lo heart. His pro
fession invites it and if he is so thin
skinned that, he can't stand public
censure, the sooner he finds another
oeatiou the better.
GOOD OPINION OK HIMSELF.
In the October American Magazine
a contributor writes an article entitled
"Humor of the Couit.-,." which con-
fisU largely of funny stories that
lawyers lelt of iheir experiences. Tlw
following is a Mory about a man who
wa placed in a poiiiou where he was
obliged to expect a good opinion of
himself:
"There is a ioiy about Koll.tud the

nole saxiiii; that doubtless a mistake
had been made. It angered Koltand lo
think tli.it anyone should estimate hi
services at iie thousand dollar-, lie
returned the check with a message
that an error had certainly been made,
as the pte-ident had suspected, and
that the bill should be twenty-fie

NEW CORSETS INDICATE
DESIGNERS HAS SOME SENSE
No More Will My Lady Attempt
to Crowd a Large Waist into
a Minature Corset.
liy Margaret Mason
(Written for the United Press.)
In tlie days of old the clinging vine
Was highest type of feminine.
And she who was the winning maid
Was, she who was demurely staid.
Today though styles have changed
apace
Ancnt the fair sex of the race
Vet still the highest court is paid
To her who is correctly "stayed."
New York, Oct 10. The newest
corset spells woe to the lady of gen
erous embonpoint. Her nearest ap
proach to a fashionable figure will
be a swell one. The new models are
so low of bust as lo conic scarcely
above the waist line. The fewest
Kissible bones arc used and the mat
erial of the corset is thin and flexible
To be sure they look as though what
has been cut off above the waist line
has been tacked on below so far
down past the hips do they come but
fortunately insets of elastics in the
sides and back make it possible for
the wearer to assume a sitting pos
ture and saves her the embarrassment
of being forced lo take her meals off
the mantle piece. The front laced
corset is being shown in many models
and is a great favorite not only be
cause it is easier to adjust and more
inufortahle to wear but because it
actually tends to reduce a too gener
ously chubby "lummy."
Tricot is ihc ideal fabric for the
flexible corset of 191.3, especially for
evening wear. Indeed the smart wo
man whose purse is as well filled as
her 36 stays has different corsets,
for different purposes. One of
of silk tricot lightly boned serves her
beautifully for dress and evening wear
while a heavier silk brochc boned a
trifle nuire strongly offers her ample
support for street wear.
Certainly the new stay ought lo be
here lo stay for it is a boon from a
hygienic standpoint. The days when
'" squeezed up our waists like a
Cliinesewomau did her feet arc rele
gated to a barbarous past.
Hut while Lena clasps the new
slays to her meagre bosom with un
bounded bliss, Inilima can but mourn
I for alas ! Fashion's mandate has
gone lorin mat sue may not even nave
a brassiere lo sustain her.

PHILADELPHIA KbK FOURTH
GAME OF WORLDS SERIES
Game That Ended Five to Two
Threatened to Go into :
Extra innings.
By Hal Sheridan.
THE SCORE:
R H E
New York 8 8 2
Philadelphia 6 9 0
Philadelphia, Oct. 10. In a game
which threatened to ga into extra in
nings, Philadelphia won the fourth
game of the Worlds series by a score
of six to five. New York made a
strong finish, getting three runs in the
eighth but the team couldn't over
come Philadelphia's lead. The Ath
letics started scoring in the second
inning and made three more in the
fourth inning and two in- the fifth.
They failed to score after this .but
had secured enough runs to win the
game. A feature was a home run by
Merklc of the Giants, scoring Burns
and Murray ahead of him.
At twelve fifteen the day was per
fect and by far the best day duri.ig
the Worlds scries so far. A light
breeze, a clear sky and a temperature
that is mild, made just the right kind
of weather for comfort.
Both teams appearedo on the field
at twelve forty. The sun shone at
intervals. The park was crowded.
The batteries were New York. De
marce and McLean; Philadelphia,
Bender and Schang.

ESCAI
N FORDING STREAM
E. E. Greiser, Manager of the
County Poor Farm Had
Narrow Escape.
SNAKED CUT OF CALAP001A
RIVER BY HIS HORSES
Driver Did Not Kno w That the
Stream Has Risen Since
Recent Rains.
In fording the Calapooia river the
day before yesterday just southwest of
the city limits, E. E. Greiser, the
recently appointed manager of the
county poor farm, possibly escaped
drowning, when his wagon was over
set by the swift current.
Greiser, not realizing the stream had
risen several feet during the recent
rair.s, was on his way to town, driv
ing a team attached to a heavy wagon.
The ford is provided as a route to
take the place of the bridge, cross
ing the Calapooia river, which is un
dergoing repairs. The bridge is lo
cated on the Corvallis and Peoria
Peoria road, just southwest of Ha
zclvvood addition.
Greiser drove his team down to the
bank, which is rather sleep on the
west side of the river and before he
could check the horses, they were
plunged into the rapidly moving
stream and into several feet of wa
ter. The body of the wagon was swept
off of the rtluninggears, taking the
driver wit it. However, he main
tained his hold oh the lines. The
horses struggled desperately in the
water, which was over their backs.
Managing to swim to the shallow
water on the opposite side, they
snaked the runninggcars of the wa
gon out with the driver still cling
ing to the lines. The water was con
siderably over Greiscr's head and it
is believed that had it not been for
his clinging to the lines be would
have not been able to gain the shore.
Driving his wagon to town, with
out the bed, he secured dry cloth
ing. The body of the wagon was
ing. The bed of the wagon was
found yesterday some distance down
stream.
