Why We Are Stronger.

The old Greeks and Romans were
great admirers of health and strength;
their pictures and statuary made the
muscles Of the men stand out like
cords.
AS matter of fact we have ath-
letes and strong men-men fed on
fine strength making food such as
Quaker Oats-that would win In any
contest with the old Roman or Greek
champions.
It's matter of food. The finest food
for making strength of bone, muscle
and nerve is fine oatmeal. Quaker
Oats is the best because 1t is pure, no
husks or stems or black specks Farm

the farm hands plentifully on Quaker

Frequently the expression is
heard at the ball ground, THAT fell
lows a fast thinker" Just for a
moment. consider how fast some
players really do think.
For instance, suppose a runner is
on second base in tight game,
with two men out and the man at
bat singles sharply over second,
the second baseman knocking
down the ball, but not holding it.
The batter has been sprinting for
first since the crack of the bat, but
the man on second has to hesitate
until he is sure the ball is not
caught.
Between the time the ball is hit
and knocked down 115 or 40 feet
away perhaps four-fifths of sec
ond elapse. In this time the field
er's brain gets this: 81 can't get
the man going to first, but the man
on second must wait to see If I
catch the ball. If don't. he will
go to third, so the thing to do is to
throw to third as soon as | get
hold of the ball"
His first thought was direction,
his second thought speed and his
third whether he should back up or
come in on the ball to get It, He
knew the runner would get to first
In less than four seconds, while II
he knocked the ball down, recov.
cred it. turned and threw, he would
not get him. Then he thought of
the man going to third. and figured
he could get him il the third base,
man attended to business.
1t is fast thinking, isn't 1t?

The very latest base ball stunt as
worked by McGraw's merry men
is a base stealing trick known as
the ''whipsaw steal" 1t is gen
orally tried when two are out, with
men on first and third. The Giants
pulled it off on Pittsburg, catching
Abstein and Wagner, and tying the
score. The thing was picked up
in Marlin, Texas, last spring and
was kept under cover until needed.
The play depends upon the run
ner on first leading off so far that
he draws a throw from the pitch
err. The moment the pitcher makes
the first move to throw to first
the runner dashes for second. Ma
turally the pitcher throws to save
a balk being called. The first base
man nine times out of 10 throws
to second to catch the runner.
Meanwhile the runner on third has
been edging along slowly, but not
showing a sign of going home UNI
til the first baseman starts his
throw to second.
The moment the first base guar
dian does throw. however, the
runner on third sprints for the
plate and is almost certain to score,
for the double throw cannot beat
him. Meanwhile. 1t is up to the
man going to second to stop in his
tracks long enough to permit the
man to score before he is retired
Of course, If the first baseman
is wise and whips the ball to third
instead of to second he is apt to
get the runner off third, retiring
the side.

Ants sre SIX cared.

In the matter of some of their
organs the ants are more than ordi-
narily endowed. Strange as 1t may
seem. each ant has at least six ears.
Aside from this multiplicity Of ears,
they are located in just about the queer
est place imagiuable-on the legs. They
seem deaf to all sounds made by the
vibration of the air. but detect the
slightest possible vibrations OF solid
material. This is supposed to be to
their advantage in that such things as
approaching footsteps tell more Of the
possibility of danger than such sounds
as are transmitted through the air. So
sensitive are their feet that they detect
the impact Of a small bird shot dropped

inches and about fourteen feet distant
