its promise. though not every one Will agree
with the food recommendations. For ex-
ample. many persons find the so-called
breakfast foods quite ipdigestible. but sew

The fact that they are mentioned by name
gives an objectionable favor OF advertising
to the volume. However. the main purpose
is to teach women such physical exercises
as will keep them in good health, and the
instructions offered are practical and easily
followed They have the advantage of TAX
ing but little time. in this respect differing
from most beauty treatises, whose direc-
lions. IL followed. would occupy more hours
than the majority Of women can spare. Just
what each form of exercise will accomplish
is definitely stated, and accompanying IL
Illustrations serve as a sufficient guide. The

MICHIGAN DENIES.
Say They Did Not Accuse Minnesota
of Unfair PLAYING.

Ann Arbor. Mich, Nov. 6.--The author
tiles in athletics here regret exceedingly
that the rather violent charges regarding
Minnesota's conduct on the field toward
the Michigan players and keene F1tz-
patrick, who was quoted in one chicago
paper, denies that he said any such thing
as was attributed to him or that he talked
to reporters on the subject.
Coach Yost made out the following as
official from him:
.sHeston and Maddox did most of Mich

than three or four Minnesota men VINO
sometimes had to sit on them to stop

Manager Baird arrived home this morn
ing and refused to discuss the matter.
When asked if he would consent TO scned-
ule Minnesota for next year he replied:
Schedules are not made up until after
the end of the football season, and then
negotiations are conducted privately De-

WANT HONORS FOR TEAM

Minneapolis, Mimi, Nov. 6.-Minne
sofa is disappointed over the half
hearted praise given by outside critics
to the Minnesota team. The university
students and townspeople insist that
the Gophers SO clearly outplayed the
Wolverines that the entire football
world should unhesitatingly concede
that Minnesota's football team is super
ior to Michigan's.
A careful reorganization of the work
of the two teams shows that Mime
sofa gained 237 yards from scrim-
magess twenty seven in running back
punts, fifty-five in running back kick
offs and 3S5 from punts. or total of
704 yards, while Michigan gained only
152 yards from scrimmages, nine from
running back punts, ten from running
back kick-offs and 1886 from punts, or
total of 507 yards; in other words, about
200 yards less than their opponents.
In addition Michigan was helped for
ward a total of ninety yards by the
penalties imposed against Minnesota
owing to eagerness and overanxiety
Minnesota gained thirty-fve yards on
the rulings of the umpire.
Minnesota fumbled freely and it cost
! the team one and probably two touch
downs in the first half.
| TheEe's no one at the university so

play of Michigan previous to making
the touchdown. 1t was magnificent and
as fine straight football as was ever
seen. Half the distance gained by the
Wolverines was procured in this splen-
did march of seventy-four yards In
which Heston played like demon,
carrying the ball five or six times in
succession 1t was a Heston triumph.
The physical condition of the visitors
| was far superior to Minnesota's and
for this Keene Fitzpatrick deserves the
highest praise
! The wall from Ann Arbor about the
rough work on Northrop field sounds
queer here For team weighing near

act'' like a lot of prep school infants
looks to Minnesota like a confession OF
defeat. Those familiar with the low
lcharging style of play adopted by
Maddox and Heston would be sur
Iprised if they did not have some marks
to show for their fierce and reckless
plunges into the sturdy Minnesota
line.
After the game Coach Yost gleefully
rejoiced over the fact that Minnesota
had taken out one and a half hours
time for injuries, while Michigan had
taken out only ten minutes. Possibly
this may give some indications as 70
which team was playing the roughest
game There were thousands OF people
at the game who were not partisans OF
either team, and it is safe to say thai
none of them will charge that Mime
sofa was any more unsportsmanlke
than Michigan. Minnesota apparently
got all that was coming, both as to pen
