The Busy MAN

Is the Heavyweight smoking a
Pittsburg Stogie, or is he chew
ing long dark licorice stick?
Both wrong, child, both wrong.
That is a Fawcett Panatella, and
tits said that this brand of smokes
will be popular in our communi-
ty for some time hence.
The Busy Man Fan is one of
the genuine props of our Nation
al Game. This historical note Is
born out by the fact that back IN
the sos, our ball players were
business men themselves. They
even wore whiskers.
If you have something impor-
tant to talk over with the BusT
Man Fan and find Sign on his
office door that reads: Gone TO
Lunch; Return Soon," don't wai..
Go out to the Ball Park and
you'll find him making Shrlll
Scream for the slaughter of the
Visiting Aggregation.

SAND LOTS AND CAMPUS ARE HOMES TODAtOF PLAYERS
WHO ARE T0M0RROWS STARS SAYS GARRY HERMANN

when he would make good as an
infielder, catcher or outfieIder, IL
tried out. As a result, he fails as
pitcher and frequently gives up
the game in disgust. Sometimes,
however, he is induced TO try an
other position, and immediately
jbegins to shine.
An instance of this in profess
sional base ball occurred when
Roger Bresnahan, of the Balti-
more team, who was a poor pitch
er. was made over into catcher.
He is now manager of the st.
Louis National league club, and
one of the games great backstops.
The boy who plays Saturday
and Sunday developes naturally
because seldom, If ever, has he
the benefit of efficient coaching.
The collegian, who has COM
menced his base ball in high or
preparatory school, also developes
naturally, perhaps, but he is ma
lterially assisted by coaching. In
high school he has graduated
star to point out the faults and
correct his mistakes. In cohege
the coach is perhaps veteran of
the diamond, under whose tuition
the young fellow blossoms rapidly.
The average university player
is good enough for n minor league
team. A few have gone directly
from college to the major leagues,
notably Christy Mathewson, but
the majority need seasoning and
polishing in slower company be-
fore they are capable of making
good in the fastest company.
The boys from the lots graduate
from ward or neighborhood teams
and join a fast amateur organiza-
| ton. Then, when their names be-
come known locally they are pick
ed up by some commercial house
whise supports semi-profession-
al team for advertising purposes.
The players names get into the
papers and they begin to attract
attention. Then they "go out"
and become members of a minor
league team, to get their first real
Experience.
No matter how good an
amateur player may be, he
| learns much when he becomes
a professional. If "comer"
he soon loses those little
things which stamp him as an
amateur to the critical eye.
| He learns more each time he
! ascends the ladder, until
when he becomes a major

1t is hard for the average man
to believe, perhaps, but there is
scarcely a hamlet in the United
States, with young player of ex-
|ceptional ability, but ID visited by
these scouts every year, and the
progress of the youngster is re-
ported to headquarters, until,
when he appears to be ripe, he is
picked for greater glory. to fight
his way through the maze of other
players to the big city and the
major league.

have been asked to write up
on base ball, and believe that
the first article should be about
the boys-the boys on the SAND
lots and on the campus, for 1t is
in these environments the great
players of tomorrow are found to-
day. :.
1t has been said that great ball
players are born, not made, but IL
is a we'll known fact that thous-
ands of fine players and many
great ones have been developed
from raw material by efficient
coaching.
The boy who is not fortunate
enough to go to college plays ball
Saturday and Sunday afternoons.
Time and again boys who play on
these Saturday and Sunday teams,
for want of efficient coaching,
spend seasons trying to make good
in a position they are untitled for.
For instance, almost every
youngster wants to be a pitcher,

Life Insurance Companies
They Are Closely Observing Public
Health Conditions

An examining physician for one Of
he prominent Life Insurance compa
mics. in an interview on the subject,
made the astonishing statement that
the reason why so many applicants for
Insurance are rejected is because kid
ney trouble is so common to the Amer
lean people, and the large majority Of
applicants do not even suspect that
they have the disease.
He states that judging from his own
experience and reports from druggists
who are constantly in direct touch with
the public, there is one preparation that
has probably been more successful in
relieving and curing these diseases
than any remedy known The mild
and healing influence Of DR.. Kilmer's
Swamp Root is soon realized. It stands
the highest for its remarkable record
of cures.
We find that Swamp-RoOt is strictly
an herbal compound. and we would ad-
wise our readers who feel in need of
such remedy to give it a trial 1t is
on sale at all drug stores in bottles of
two sizes-fifty cents and one dollar.
However, if you wish first to test its
wonderful merits, send TO DR. Kilmer &
Co. Binghamton, \. Y, for a sample
bottle, absolutely free. When writing
be sure and mention The Ell PasO
