THE POWER OF SUGGESTION.
Consequences Of a Mix-Up Of the
Doctors Letters.

From Health Culture.
A physician is fond of relating a per-
sonal experience showing the power OF
suggestion. He says that a young clerk.
tagged from Overwork and the heat OF
trying summer. consulted him as to his
condition.
He put the usual questions to him, ex-
amined his heart and lungs. gave him
certain instructions and told him that
he would receive more detailed directions
by telephone or letter on the morrow.
The next day the patient received a
letter from the physician telling him
that one Of his lungs was seriously af-
fected and that his heart was not quite
as it should be. He was told to put his
affairs in order: that, though he might
live for weeks or even months. 1t was
important that he should leave nothing
of Importance unsettled.
Naturally. such news. practically a
death warrant. quite unnerved the pa
tient He stayed home that day from the
Office. and in a short time was in most
serious state. His people, alarmed, sent
for the doctor.
On his arrival the physician was as
founded Why. my friend, what have
you been doing to yourself? You certain
ly were all right yesterday
ITS my lungs, DOCTOR said the pa
tient
at all the matter with your lungs re-
piled the doctor.
why" said the patient. you told
me in your letter that my lungs were so
seriously affected that I had but few
days more to live" And he produced the
fateful letter.
well" said the doctor. there is a
pretty mess. / wrote You to take a few
weeks vacation at the seashore or in the
mountains and you would be as good as
new in a short time. The letter you re-
ceived was intended for another man.
My secretary must have mixed up the
envelopes
AS may be imagined. the patient was
overjoyed. 1t is needless to say his re-
covery was rapid
And the other, he with the weak lungs
and a not too strong heart, on receiving
the letter intended for the other man
went at once to the mountains, with the
result that, though years have passed, he
is in reasonably good condition.

Atlanta, Ca, July Fired Corbin, out

year with the Dallas team of the Texas
League, whittier he has been ordered by,
Jim McAleer.' of the Washington Ameri-
cans. The passing of "Biff'' Corbin is
looked upon with regret by the fans of
this city, for there has never been an
outfielder in the league who has worked
harder Or shown more headwork and
energy than he. His batting alone has
been erratic, and 1t is due to this that
he is no more a member of the Cracker
club.
Since Corbin began to lose his batting
eye Manager Jordan has been on the
lookout for a fielder to take his place. In
this he has been Influenced by the fact
that Corbin has never really been the
property of Atlanta. but has been sub

From Boston the club starts on its

twenty games. according to the Ameri-
can League schedule.
This series is a most important one.
and will, in a great measure, determine
just about where the club is to finish

At the rate the team is travelling now,
It is up to the pitchers to show their
class. as the boys are hitting well. and
during the series here last week the
fielding was a marked Improvement over
the showing of the previous week.
BY winning two out of five from the
worlds champions last week the Ma
tionals delighted~the Washington fans.
1t was not so much the fact that they
won those two games, but that the team
as a whole showed a lot of fight and
ginger, the lack of which has been the
cause of considerable adverse comment.
Washington fans will give generous
patronage when the club plays hard

Big Six" BreWer !.
For Nationals
Perfect Peg to Second Gipes Local Amateur
Catcher Chanceto Show His Worth in Amer

perfect peg to second base gave
big Six" Brewer his chance to break
into the American League
Brewer is husky receiver who has
been setting the local sandlots on fire
this season.
| Manager McAleer Is in a bad way for
catchers, as Street and Ainsmith are on
the hospital list, and decided to give
Brewer a chance.
big Six" as he has been nicknamed,
strolled into the ball yard half an hour
before yesterdays game and was in
troduced to Manager Jim.
Get into a uniform, kid, and sit on
the bench,'' was all the local boss said
10 him.
In the second inning, while John Henry
was adjusting his mask and protector,
McAleer said to Brewer, Go out there
and catch Johnson; let me see how you
handle yourself. and peg one down to
second"
Brewer did as he was told. He only
received three of Johnson's shoots and
then slammed the ball to Cunningham.
1t travelled like a rife shot, true as
die.
HhASAACCA anu when
big Six strolled back to the
bench, the Nationals boss slapped him
on the back, saying: Il like your looks,
kid, and am going to give you a chance.
You go to Boston with us tomorrow
afternoon"
Then followed a short confab. Nc
Aleer's terms were accepted. Brewer
was given a travelling uniform, and win
this morning sign a Washington club
contract.
McAleer is a shrewd judge of a play
er's ability, but it is doubtful II he
ever signed a man before on such short
notice.
Brewer is an awkward, lanky chap,
with 6 foot inch frame, covered
with steel-Iike muscles. If he makes
good he will be the tallest catcher in
the American League.
Brewer is so confident that he can hold
