his aspirations fixed high and his
hopes held above the temptations
that beset youthful feet in our cities.
Lack of attention to the individual
needs of pupils is the one weakness
of our city school systems, and a con-
dition necessary, because Of the num-
Der of pupils taught by each teacher
and the inelastic nature of the graded
course. The parents must supply this
deficiency. They must supplement the
work OF the school room with home
training, and they can supplement
the work only by first getting ac-
quainted with the teacher and the
methods.

What Osteopathy Is.

The question is often asked "What
Is Osteopathy?" for some people have
a very vague idea of this new science
that is doing 50 much to aid mankind.
Osteopathy, when well digested, is
nothing but GOOD sense and reason.
It is a method for treating disease
by manipulation, to restore the norm
al condition Of the nerve control and
the blood supply to every organ of the
body by removing the physical OBJ
structions, or by stimulating, or
checking, functional activity, as the
conditions may require.
A diseased body is caused by some
interference to a working part of the
organism. and correction OF it
brings restored health. Therefore.
osteopathy finds the disturbance and,
RICH ting It, effects its cure.
Some of the diseases in which os-
teopathic treatment has been the
most effective are headaches OF all
kinds. nervous disorders. malaria and
bilious. tired down and tagged out
conditions, indigestion n It's many
forms, kidney troubles, neuralgia and
rheumatism. 1t treats successfully
however, nearly all diseases. If you
are ailing, no matter what your par
ticular trouble may be, | should like
to have you call and let me tell you
why osteopathy will cure in your
special case. do not claim that Os-
teopathy is a cure-all, but am frank
and will tell you what 1t will do in
any individual case, at the same time
referring you to people you know,
who will gladly tell you what the
treatment has done for them.

ACTOR BALL TEAM
LOSES TO SCRIBES

Unable to connect with Springer,
Guernsey or Pabst of the newspaper
tribe, the Actor baseball team went
down to another defeat yesterday by d
score of 1872 at Chutes park.
There were really no exciting feat-
1res. with the exception of fly caught
in the field by Lowell. The scrlpes
were overcome for a moment atter
Lowell had done his stunt and allowed
the Thespians to score two runs.
Dugan of the Actor nine did not re-
ceive brilliant support, and although ne
was none too freely pasted py lne
scribes, lost out on errors.
The newspaper men presented Guern-
sew in the last two innings after he had
nlayed 3. nice game at third. Guern-
sew shot them over with such deadly
ferocity that he was called down by
other members of the team and forceo
to retire, Pabst being sent in.
Van Loan and Beanie scintillated al
short and second, the only dub per-
former of the day making errors at
first. Leonard in left field was star
of magnitude, while Red Davidson held
his own in right field.
And some of the actors are worthy OF
mention. Bill Desmond had the loldles
with him and managed to stir up real
excitement by protesting Hen Berry
decisions.
Joe Galbraith, although he did not
wear a uniform, played great ball at
second. Harry Glazier raised a storm
of applause by assisting some one out
at first.
With no disparagement as to Dugans
efforts the game might have been a
close one had the Actor men been on an
equal basis with the scribes in the box
