JOE ACLER BEST
IN LEAGUE, SAYS
SCHWARTZ
NASHVILLE. TENN, Sept. 2.
While the Crackers were

NASHVILLE, TENN, Sept. 2
~ While the Crackers were
playing in the Dell during
the early part of last week Nash
vile fans were noticeably i'm
pressed with the work of Joe Ag-
Ter, who was seen here for the first
time since the Cubs came through
on Their spring training trip. The
Atlanta first sacker's fielding was
the sensation of the series of four
games, and it Is the general opin-
ion here that he will make a good
man for Clark Griffith at Wash
ington next season. if he can pick
up little in his hitting.
One of Agler's chief admirers is
Manager Bill Schwartz of the
Nashville team. The Nashville
leader played against Agler in the
O. & P. league several years ago.
when Joe was just getting his start
in the world, and believes him to
be one Of the greatest fielding first
sackers in the country.
IF Agler could hit 300 or better
he would be the most sensa tional
first baseman in the world" said
Manager Schwartz, after the At
lanta series. There is no greater
fielding initial sacker in the bust
ness, unless it be Hal Chase. and |
am not sure that the Yankee star
has anything on this youngster
Agler can reach balls that other
players would find impossible, be-
cause of his unusual ability to field
rs well with one hand as with both.
SWats SwaCina was considered
star because of his ability to stop
badly thrown balls with but one
hand, but he can not compare with
Agler In this department Agler
combines all of the ability of a
shortstop on ground balls and has
an unusually good whip. Anything
that comes within his reach is as
good as dead as far as the batter
. IS concerned"
Bill Schwartz, being a first base
man himself, knows what it takes
to make up star at this position.
Last season he led all of the first
sackers of this league and also the
American and National leagues in
helding, but seems destined TO
yield the palm to Agler this season.

WOMEN AND HEALTH.

Women are beginning to realize
more fully that good health is not to
De found in the use of cosmetics and
face powders. The appearance of
health may follow facial treatment,
but health itself lies much deeper than
the surface.
Most important to the health of ev-
cry woman is regularity of the bowels
and digestive organs. The weary
eyes, bad breath, frequent headaches,
plmples and general air of lassitude,
is IN most every case due to consti-
patton or Indigestion, Or both. There
are various remedies prescribed for
this condition, but the easiest, most
pleasant and certainly effective, is
a combination of simple laxative
herbs with pepsin known to druggists
as DR.. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin. This
simple remedy is far preferable to
harsh salts and cathartics and violent
purgatiye waters that disturb the
whole system without affording more
than temporary relief.
DR.. Caldwelps Syrup Pepsin is a
tonic laxative, mild in its action,
pleasant to the taste and positive in
its effect, Strengthening the muscles
of stomach and bowels so that after
short time these organs regain the
power to perform their natural func-
lions without assistance. go
DR.. Caldwells Syrup Pepsin is sold
by druggists everywhere in SOC and
$1.OO bottles. If you have never tried
it, write for a sample to DR.. w. B.
Caldwell, 201 Washington ST., Month
cello, ILL.,; he will gladly send trial
bottle without any expense to you
whatever.

Bad Teeth Go with Good Brains.

An English scientist has pointed out
that there are signs of a steady de-
generacy in two sets of organs vital to
the we'll being of the human race, and
the fall is most marked among the
western nations. The evidence is that,
coincident with the mental advance Of
man, there has been diminution in
the provision of teeth. In the ape,
the negro, and the white man. brain
and teeth arc inversely proportional
to efficiency. Increase of cunning has
reduced the work of the teeth, and the
demand of the brain for blood has
starved the former; disorders of di-
gestion show that the balance is IN
satisfactory.
