IT'S THE FOOD.
The True Way to Correct Nervous
Troubles.

Nervous troubles are more often
caused by improper food and indiges-
tion than most people imagine. Even
doctors sometimes overlook this fact.

Until two years ago waffies and
butter with meat and gravy were the
main features Of my breakfast. Finally
dyspepsia came on and | found myself
In bad condition, worse in the morn

The vitality is lowered and the cir.

A sudden spring out Of bed is q

JIMMY JOHNSTON SMASHED = ARTIE PHELAN'S 1911 MARK,
 SWIPING TOTAL OF 58 BASES
BY REUBEN A. LEWIS

However. he upset the dope. He is hitting heavier than he did in 1911, and his playing, in every respect, is by far the superior. In addition to the story that Johnston will go toethe White Sox there is another to tell. Had the White Sox not exercised their option on him it Is probable that he would share the worlds s series money.
 As known, Clarke Griffith and Billy Smith are very fine friends. Billy con- fided to Johnston that he would recom- mend him to Griffith and that Griffith would buy him should not the option be exercised The leader of the Washing ton club has a fair chance to cop the pen nant, and it is a cinch that Johnston would have gone to Washington had not Chicago bought him.
 Johnston secured a bad start in his at tempt to break the base stealing record On May he had stolen but three bases, while but % were listed to his credit on June 1. On July he had g bases and on August he had 53 purlofned sacks to his credit. Now Jimmy has a total of 5s, and he hopes to have deposited in Presi- dent Kavanaughs record book on Septem- Der 15 enough to beat Joe Rickerts rec ord
 Johnston is quite an ambitious player. He is conscientious, game and fine fell low personally He has no bad habits ,and if he does not succeed in the big show good man will have failed.

1t is almost certainty that the Barons will make months tour of Cuba at the conclusion of the Southern league sea- Ryan, who has been looking after the business end of the post season tour has offered s2o0 to each Baron making the trip for one month and the Barons have stated that they were willing to go.
 It is thought that Ryan is holding opt for more money for the players, but i; is believed that the Baorns will go at the S2G0 offer for playing nine games. It + the idea of the promoter to play the Gu ban teams series of nine games. One game will be played early in the week while another will be engaged in on Saturday. The Almendares club and the ether prominent Cuban teams will be played.
 The chief drawing card will be Rafael Almeda. who is perhaps the most popu- lar. of all Cuban baseball players with the Cuban baseball public 'I believe that the trip would be a success, said Almeida but the Barons will have to play good ball. The Cuban public is well educated in baseball, and of course a mediocre eX hibition would not draw a fistfull. But there is little difference between the Southern and major leagues.
 Every winter one or two Of the major league teams go to Havana and play with the Cuban clubs and with each other. A large crowd of about 5000 or 10000 people turns out to see the exhbi- tions, and it is usually a profitable ven ture to the promoters. The boys will be treated well, as the Americans have many privileges in Cuba which even l do not enjoy.
 It is the present intention to take along Manager Molesworth and 13 players. yhis will include a full team and four pitchers, while Ryan will look after the money matters of the transforming crew. The tour will begin in Cuba on October 1, or about that time, and the Barons will return on November l.
 It is probable, too, that the Barons will remain another month and play the major league teams, which always travel to Cuba in the winter. It is known that the Birmingham players are anxious to gn. The $2o0 with all expenses paid, will help pay household expenses through the winter while the majority are desirous of taking the trip.
 Although no definite date has been set for final answer from Ray Ryan, it will be known definitely within two weeks whether or not the tour in Almeida's lccuntry will be taken.

BARONS ENJOY POOR GAME BETWEEN THE PELS AND LOOKOUTS

Although the Southern league season is far from finished. one record has been broken In the last game with Chat nooga Jimmy Johnston smashed the 1911 base. stealing, record by pilfering his fifty eighth stolen base, Artie Phelan, the clever Baron third saclSer, succeeded in annexing 57 bases last season, and led all other aspiring base runners.
 Johnston has a chance to break the Southern league record in base stealing. Joe Rickert, then with the New Orleans club, once stole T bases in one season, and this has never been surpassed by any other player. It was on account of Johnston's speed that he was Sent to the big league. Callahan has a yearning for speedy base runners, and has conducted a country wide search for the men. John ston was eagexly sought for and signed.
 Johnston Ias participated in exactly 100 games. He has averaged over one-half stolen base per game, and if he should steal at this rate in the other 36 games which are scheduled he will have stolen about so bases. Johnston came back into the game at a disadvantage. Toward the close of the 1911 season Rube Benton ''beaned'' Johnston with a terrific swift ball It was thought that this would make him gunshy, and as the result he would be poorer hitter. He was badly hurt.

In Thursdays game he failed to get a hit in three times at bat and dropped from .a26.
 Iris Speaker is slugging like demon however. and is climbing into the fo0 class In Thursdays game he secured two singles out Of four trips to the platter. His swatting percentage now rests at 39e, which is Q good imitation of bargain sale rate. Joe Jackson secured two hits out of three times up Thursday, and is now hitting .37S. One of the two safeties vas a double and the other triple. Nar, Lajoie is Hitting 1920.

THE PATHFINDERS

Nashville. August Special )--- Through a constant succession of hard showers over roads that were of clay and very slippery, over roads that were sticky. the top dressing having been
 completely worn away. and through swollen streams, the pathfinder for the National Lakes to Gulf run toured It's way today Westgard Spooner and party in the Flanders electric which is making the pathfinding trip, covered exactly 10S miles from Mammoth Cave, Ky, to this city. 1t was the second longest days journey of the remarka- ble trip and was made in perfect com fort in the electric coupe. Glidden tourists who made this route two years ago pronounced the feat impossible for an electric car
 The roads today were found much improved, however, over the roads that existed two years ago, much of the roadway having been worked upon. From Mammoth Cave to this city the party could but. crawl, and from that point there was little real pike for 20 miles followed by 20 miles of fairly good going. Then came the founda- tions of a fine highway and the 1iast 20 miles into the city was as fine as ever driven over.
 The pathhnders leave tomorrow morning for Memphis. a distance of 250 miles via Florence, Ala and the trip Is expected to be very severe owing to the hard rains which have fallen re- gently Owing to it's wonderful per- formance during the remarkable jour- ney much curiosity to see the Elan ders electric has been aroused and as big reception planned here was spoiled by deluge of rain.
