Complaints Of fuel shortage are

More idle men are seen here each

1--WE must obey Gods law" said
Reb Shemuel.
David and Hannah decided to elope |
on the night of the first Seder. Han
nah had always been rebellious at the
many ceremonials of her fathers re-
ligion. She thought herself hemmed
in too much by traditional usages and
wanted to be free. But when it came
to the test she could not give up her
religion. Passionately as she loved
David the traditions of her people
were so deep-rooted she could not tear
| them out and become an outcast with
David. Thus Hannah sacrificed her
happiness.

said Reb Shemuel, in hushed, quaver-

The fit of trembling passed from

thing to do is to take the position that
seems natural and comfortable to you.
Then don't let the pitcher scare you
out of it.
Many foxy twirlers will shoot ball
close to you every once in a while to
make you get away from the plate.
Don't let them get away with it. Wait
to the very last second before lodging
Don't use too heavy a bat. 1t is a
mistaken notion that only a heavy
club will drive ball out. A pitcher
with a good change of pace can make
joke of a batsman who is swinging
a bat too heavy for him. Use bat of
medium weight, one that you can
handle easily. You don't have to swing
SO hard either. All that is needed is to
meet the ball fairly, to get the weight
of your body back of it the moment
you land.

No Truth in Charges.

WASHINGTON, July 3.-"Not one
charge has any basis in fact" was the
gist of the report to Secretary Wilson
by A. d. Melvin, chief of the bureau
of animal industry, and George P.
McCabe solicitor of the department Of
agriculture, who investigated the
charges against the inspectors of the
East ST. Louis stock yards. The
charges were made by former Stock
Yards Inspector ]. f. Harms, who said
the appalling disregard for regulations
that existed in the stock yards, de-
manded investigation.

CUTICURA SOON CURED
HIS FEARFUL ECZEMA

About q year ago an itching humor
began to appear around the back of my
hand. 1t started in to spread, and
pretty soon it covered both my hands
and got up over my wrists and even
UP to the elbows. The itching and
burning were terrible, My hands got
all sca1y and when scratched, as
was doing a good part of the time, the
surface would be covered with bisters
and then get raw. The eczema got so
bad in around the pit Of my thumbs
that I could not move the thumbs
without deep cracks appearing: L went
to my doctor, but his medicine could
only stop the itching and did not seem
to heal my hands up at all. At night

sleep, often lying awake until well toward
morning, then waking up still tired.

were so terrible to look at that they

them with water, but when l positively
had to get my hands clean would rub
them with oil.
This sort of business went on for
three months and / kept trying zinc

1t would not be stretching the truth
to say that the life of Paz has been
the most romantic of any American
who has lived and fought during the
last half century He was not only a
journalist, poet, dramatist, publisher,
satirist and scholar, but also a soldier;
a profound patriot, statesman and
practical politician Mexico is prob
Any much more advance today than
lived
When Macmillan attempted to
transform Mexico into an empire, Paz
fought the project with tongue and
pen and sword. He fought as a soldier
in the ranks until the republican forces
were temporarily defeated by the
army of the empire. Then he estab-
lished journals in which he attacked
monarchial ideas of government with
all the singing satire of which he
was the master. he was thrown INTO
prison, but the triumph of the republic
resulted in his liberation.
Upon his release, he became con-
WINGED that the Juarez government
was a failure and again established
journal to combat the president. Again
he was silenced by being thrown into
prison. Upon his release he was one
of the first to advocate the election to
the presidency of Porforio Diaz, the
present chief executive of the republic.
Under the Diaz regime Paz devoted
his time to literary labors, and the
books and dramas he has written make
an imposing list. He founded and was
for more than 80 years the editor OF
La Patria. one of the leading daily pa
pers of the City of Mexico. He held
MANY pubIic offices and was for Years

TELLS ALL ABOUT
THE BATTING EYE
Good Hitters Are the Ones Who Be-
gin Swatting the Ball in Their
Boyhood Days, Says Base
ball Expert.
(By Ravel.)

A good hitter is the combination Of
confidence, a good eye and knowledge
of how to land on the ball, says Dan
Murphy of the Athletics
Not many poor hitters are turned
into good hitters after they come up
into the big league. But with boys it is
different. They are just starting. They
haven't faults to correct; that is, no
faults that have become second to ma
ture. And while every boy can't be-
come a slugger, nevertheless such one
if he works intelligently, can get
enough hits so that he will be able to
maintain his place and turn his in
fielding or outfielding abilities to adj
vantage.
/ don't think teams get enough bat
ting practice This is one reason why
we don't see more good hitters.
Watch a lot of boys getting in shape
for the season. The infield is handling
grounders and throwing the ball
around. The outfielders are catching
flies Pitchers and catchers are work
ing together
Shirk Batting Practice.
But how often do you see the boys
taking turns at hitting, while the
pitchers send up the best speed and
curves they have, and the other mem
bers of the team in the regular posi-
tons chase the balls.
/ know it isn't much fun to prac-
tice this way There is a whole lot OF
waiting. The men in the infield and out
field have to wait too long for bal

to come their way. There is lots OF
but it is this batting work that wins
games.
You can't hit without practice, all
the time, early and late If you don't
get this kind of work when you go
up against good pitching, it is new to
you You don't know what to do, and
before you get accustomed to the speed
and curves the pitcher has you beaten
The worst batters in the world are
pitchers They are jokes, as rule,
and the reason is easy to see. They get
virtually no batting practice. If you
want to hit the ball, get out and prac-
tice doing it.
First of all, you must have conf
dence Never let the pitcher think he
has anything on you Make up your
mind that he is nothing more than any
other twirler and that he has to put
the ball within your reach to get a
strike. Let him do the worrying, es-
pecially if there are men on bases.
The man who feels comfortable at
the plate, cool and collected, no mat
ter who he faces, has made big
start in the right direction.
Should Never Pull Away.
The man who pulls away, VINO dodg-
es from every ball that threatens to
come anywhere near him, has the
worst of any faults. Unless he can cor
rect it, he never will bat we'll
because a ball is coming straight at
you is no reason for pulling away
Perhaps it may be a curve ball that
NAV break and go straight over the
plate.
You pull and it is strike, or even
if Won manage to hit it when you are
pulling away, you are not in posi-
ton to get any power on the drive
and are an easy out.
The habit of pulling away can be
remedied, but it takes nerve. Teacn
yourself to step into the ball before II
reaches the plate In this way it VIII
