CONTINUE
TO LOOK GOOD"

The Athletics look to have the American
League pennant in their grasp. Only bad
tumble can now take 1t away from them.
Mack's men have once more struck their
gait After the way they played last Sat-
urday all doubts and fears as to the out
come Of the championship race should be
at an end The way they played in the
final game against Boston in the field. at
the bat and in the pitching department was
tonic to those who felt that the White
Elephants were in danger Of a slfp-up at
the eleventh hour.
Mack's men have gotten back into their
stride. Better playing than they did on
Saturday could not be expected of human
beings. Anything like the form they then
showed should give them the pennant of
1908, and few more games like it will set
tie the question beyond all dispute.
Only three weeks more of the season re-
main. During that time Chicago will be
called upon to play about three games more
than the Athletics. for the latter will not
play the games which New York had post
poned in this city and the one which Wash
ington was unable to get In Philadelphia.
The only double-headers that Mack's men
now have on the list are with Washington
and Cleveland. and five games Will be play
ed in three days with the NapOleonss At
this stage the team managed by Lajoie does
not look to be anywhere near formid-
able as usual. although for that very reason
they should be watched like q miser
watches his money chest.
Chicago. on the other hand. will have to
play six games in three days at Boston
and five games in three days at New York,
or eleven games in six consecutive playing
days. AS New York Is playing fine bali
these days and Boston has a grudge against
the White Sox for those six straight de-
feats In the Windy City. 1t can be seen that
the Chicagos have some awful hard sled
ding before them when they strike the east
next Thursday. With fewer games to play
and many more contests at home than Chi
cago, everything continues to favor tho
Philadelphians.

Natures Best Tonic.

Laughter is undoubtedly one OF
Natures greatest tonics. 1t brings
the disordered faculties and func-
tons into harmony, it lubricates
the mental bearings and prevents
the friction which monotonous,
exacting business engenders. 1t
is a divine gift bestowed upon us
as a life preserver, a health pro-
moter, a JOY generator, a success
maker.
Life, with the average American,
IS too serious at best. Never lose
an opportunity for relaxation from
the stress and strain of your bust
ness or profession. Every draught
of laughter, like an air cushion.
eases you over the jolis and the
hard place on life's highway.
Laughter is always healthy. II
tends to bring every abnormal
condition back to the normal. Ii
is a panacea for heartaches, for
life's bruises. 1t is a life pro-
longer. People who laugh heartily
keep themselves in physical and
mental harmony, and are likely to
live longer than those who take
life too seriously.-Success Maya
zine.

Depend on YourseIf-Not on Fate

Many a man has tried to Justify
his failure on the ground that he
was doomed by the cards which
fate dealt him, that he must pick
them up and play the game. and
that no effort, however great, on
his part, could materially change
the result. But, my young friend
the Fate that deals your cards IS in
the main your own resolution. The
result of the game does not rest
with fate or destiny, but with you.
You will take the trick if you have
the superior energy, ability, and
determination requisite to take it..
You have the power within yourself
TO change the value of the cards
which, you say, sate has dealt you.
The game depends upon your
training, upon the way you are
disciplined to seize and use your
opportunities, and upon your
ability TO put grit in the place of
superior advantages.
Just because circumstances do
sometimes give clients to lawyers
and patients to physicians, put
commonplace clergymen in UNI
common pulpits, and place the sons
of the rich at the head of great
corporations even when they have
only average ability and scarcely
any experience, while poor youths
with greater ability and more ex-
perience, often have to fight their
way for years 10 obtain ordinary
situations, are you justified in start
ing out without a chart or in leav-
ing a place for luck in your pro-
gramme? What would YOU think
of the captain of a great liner who
would start out to sea without any
port in view, and trust to luck to
land his precious cargo safely2
Did you ever know of a strong
young man making ont his life
and depending upon
chance to carry out any part of it?
Men who depend upon luck" do
not think il worth while to make
a thorough preparation for success.
They are not willing to pay the
regular price for il. They are look
ing for bargains. They are hunt
ing for short cuts to success.
Power gravitates to the man who
knows how Luck is the tide, 1
nothing more. The strong man
rows with il if it makes toward his
port; he rows against It if il flows
The other way. "-Orison SWEET

authority that the negotiations of
George Gould to buy James H. Hyde's
stock in the New York Equitable Life
Assurance Society have been re-

1t is not certainly known who MI
Gould is representing in the negotia-

friendship and influence with Hyde

tion of the moneyed forces will force
him to go to Europe to negotiate the
loans on his railroad enterprises,
The following statement was CIV
