Law, Order and Harmony Come to Lynch Reign
National Chief Now Great Power In Baseball

Horace Fogel which resulted in
this former president of the Phil
lies being forever barred from the
deliberations of the National league.
Under the circumstances. a repu-
diation of Lynch, after he had so
ably proved his case. would have
put the National league in very
ludicrous position.
1t would not be at all surpris-
ing if a year hence Tom Lynch OF
his. successor should be returned to
office for a long term of years. The
trial of Fogel resulted in great good.
1t showed the National league mag
mates the absurdity of their petty
squabbles and proved to them the
great benefit of conducting their
affairs like gentlemen and sports
men. The long term Of President
Ban Johnson in the American

good to the young major. and its
example is likely to be followed in

NO CERTAIN CURE KNOWN.
For 30 Years 1t Has Been A
Plague Without A Rem
edy, Cause Unknown.

What is hay fever? fyou are one
of its victims-and it is now in seas
on-you probably will want to know.
If you ask your doctor he will have
his own theory about it. but it will
be only a theory. not susceptible as
yet of absolute demonstration. But
he will tell you there are various
names for it. such as hay asthma,
rose cold. summer catarrh. pollinosis.
vasomotor rhinitis and just plain hay
fever, says an exchange.
The variety of the names used to
define it shows that physicians have
as yet arrived at no agreement as TO
its causes or cure. One authority
says that as vet the germ of the dis
ease has not been run down."
For 80 years or more thousands of
persons who have passed annually an
unhappy period of suffering have
taxed the learning of the most expert
physicians, not so much for the cause
of the disease as for a remedy.
Every conceivable treatment has
been resorted to in the hope of hit
ting upon an effective one.
The observation of several physi
clans has led them to the belief that
hay fever is not a universal disease,
but is confined to persons of sensitive
and irritable temperaments or tend
encies. Men whose occupations lead
them to hardy normal sort of life
are never. it appears, bothered by it.
Some physicians go so far as to say
that hay fever most commonly at
tacks men of a certain class-gener-
ally professional men.
The name ''poIlinosis" indicates
what most generally is regarded as a
primo cause. The hay fever victim
knows almost to the day when he
may expect his annual attack, and
this is usually coincident with the
Towering of certain plants. These
he will avoid. and especially any
section that he knows to be infested

with the common ragweed.
The victim will also beg you not to
bring into the house such wild flow
ers as golden rod. whose pollen is ex-
tremely irritating. With some peo-
pie the odor of roses produces SIM
liar irritation. hence the name rose

Certain localities Of high altitude
are nearly immune from hay fever.
This is why Bethlehem, N. H y. has
been favorite resort Of the afflicted
for many years for thousands. Here
relief is found in the pure air pecu.
liar to the region. On the other
hand many sufferers have tried vari-
GUS climates both at home and a
broad without obtaining even tenn
porary relief.
MANY practitioners of the regular
schools are now inclir ed to accept
the conclusions both as to the origin
of the disease and the mode Of treat
ment arrived at by DR.. George L.
Richards as set forth in paper he
read before an association of physi-
