A meeting of the league directors will be beld here Monday morning at 10 o'clock, when final decision re- garding the breaking up of the league will be made, it is expected. Tacoma has been the "bad" town of the league. No Support was given the team by the Tacoma fans and 48 a result it was found necessary to quit, Vancouver has turned out fairly good crowds, but nothing to speak. of, and when the directors meet to decide to break up the league, they will be doing the best thing in the world for thems selves, for the outlook at the pres ent time for professional baseball is decidedly gloomy, and with the poor support given the teams, it is not worth while going further hito the pocket-book.

For the self-stropping feature, you see, reforms the saw-like edge that re- sults from shaving: it keeps the blade free from rust, and it provides you with a sharp blade free for every shave. The beauty of it is you don't have to remove the blade from the razor to sharpen it, nor do you have to take the AutoStrop Razor apart to clean it. From first to last--stropping, shaving and cleaning =the blade remains in the razor. Consider then the greater comfort, con- venience, economy of the AutoStrop Razor.
