Many Princeton People in Poor Health
Without knowing the Cause.

There are scores of people who

out realizing the cause of their
suffering. Day after day they are
racked with backache and headache

weakness, languor and depression.
Likely the kidneys have fallen be-
hind in their work of filtering the
blood and that is the root of the
trouble. Look to your kidneys, as
sist them in their work-give them
the help they need. You can use no

Extraordinarily Fine Timothy.

Robert S. Shaw on Tuesday
brought to town a sample of timothy
grown on his farm. He exhibited to
US about a dozen ears, which ranged
in length from IL to Is inches none
was less than foot in length. While
the entire field will not average this
length, said Mr.. Shaw, it will come
close to it. This is exceptionally
fine timothy, and it is question
whether it can be excelled any place
in the United States. Mr.. Shaw is
also an exceptionally fine farmer-he
rotates his crops and cultivates his
ground along scientific lines and
when he doesn't get good yields it is
indeed poor year.

FANS AFRAID JOE
WOOD WILL CRACK

There is some anxiety in Boston
about Joe Wood. 1t has been pointed
out that RUDE Marquard cracked after
making his wonderful record of nine
teen straight. Will Joe Wood likewise
crack and weaken the chances of
Stahl's men t. cop the long end of
the worlds series? This is possible.
To win sixteen victories as Wood has
done, and continue to try for a worlds
record is a feat that requires lots OF
nerve. 1t is apt to wear on a mans
nerves, and Wood may find that when
the big series rolls around he will be a
physical wreck from the exertions en-
pended all season.
Marquard is not the only twirler to
crack after running up a big string.
Walter johnson blew after his six
teenth, and continued to lose game aft
er game. Duhuc. of the Tigers. was
another who cracked after running up
twelve straight. 1t has been the rule
rather than the exception to start go
ing the other way after winning a
number of straight victories.
out a slump is a remarkable record.
Red Sox. Is it at all likely that the
Sox will have a relapse now that the
flag has been won, and suffer thereby
in the worlds series? Such is not
impossible. OF course, the Giants
wish to meet the Sox when they are at
their best, but a relapse on the part
Of Boston would greatly increase the
chances of the New Workers. All Of
which goes to show that for a betting
proposition even the races give one a
better run for his money.

In Worlds Series"---C. Mack

understood our players weren't Sleep
ing in these games. either.
Larry Gardner, at third. made two
diving plays in the second game of
the last series with us that were next
to impossible. One of them came with
three on and Collins up. Eddie caught
one right OF the nose. which sounded
like a rifle shot. At the same time ali
three runners had started on the
move. l thought it vas at least a dou-
BILE. but by some reason unknown to
me this Gardner lad just dove in the
air lengthwise and pulled down the
ball. landing on his shoulder. but he
refused to let the ball drop.
The catch made the third out and
catch up with the Speed Boys there
after. But the wonder to me was that
Gardner did not break his neck, as
Jack Barry broke his shoulder blade
in going after a ball in a similar way
a few months back.
lis is only n of the few instances
Of the marvellous ability shown by the
my mind warrants its ability to top
the best New York can possibly dis
play in the worlds series.
Some people are under the impress
sion that the Red SoX are liable to
CULVER when the big games are staged,
which seems foolish when one con-
siders how we'll the Boston team is
seasoned. In looking the team over
there Is hardly what you could call a
cub or y%oungster. but at the same time
don't get the impression 1 am trying
to make one believe the Red Sox are
an old team. No. indeed.
They are what I would term a club
just about right for uch an import
ant set of games. From Jake Stahl
down h team is composed of fellows
who have little or no nerve to shake
when it comes to a pinch. All tried
and true. they should go into the Sc
ries just as they have the regular sea-
son games. and if they do-well. 1
have little doubt as to what the final
result will be.
In regard to pitchers for the Sox I
could not answer: that is. whom 1
might pitch might be altogether a diff
would use. Wood is a great boxman.
but he's not near as effective against
us is the tall lad. Ray Collins. Either
of these men should make good in tho
worlds series. as likewise Buck
O'Brien and that fellow Bedient. But
when it comes to doing others work
I'm not around. That is. l mean to
this instance. and no doubt his choice
in his case will prove satisfactory
enough to the Boston followers.
One thing is. however. certain: No
matter who wins l can say without
doubt the team representing the
American league will be the best one
in the Ban Johnson circuit. No doubt
the Giants are the hest p%rocurable in
the senior league. But as / have said
before, unless the unforeseen happens.
the Boston Red Son will be able t.
rishtfully claim the worlds champion
ship of 1912 and all the honors that
belong to a worlds championship ag-
gregation.

.CUP RACE IS SET
BACK TWO WEEKS
Rain Disappoints Thousands
at Milwaukee Saturday
Afternoon--Hard Luck
(By ]. II. Ritchie.l

Milwaukee may not have been the
hottest or coolest spot in the United
States Saturday night, but it was the
sorest-bar none-in the whole wide
eNpanse of the universe. The Vander-
bilt race was called off after a troubled
afternoon and morning and two weeks
must intervene before the local popu-
lace and such visitors as essay a ONE
back "a feast their eyes and Of
thrill upon the dash and swerves Of
the greatest galaxy of daredevil driv-
ers ever gathered together on one
loop" as the press agent puts it.
Milwaukee,, it wouly SEEM, tackled
something just a little mite too hefty
for it. The Vanderbilt cup race is a
big affair and has to be managed in a
big way. The local dealers ~associa.

smooth road would do, and delayed

eight-mile circuit-and made it too

of the lake. He pointed out the de-
fects in the course n the local pro-
moters worked like beavers to rectify
their mistakes or their shortcomings.
Road was Poor.
The time was short and h weather
worse. The heavy rains soaked
through the crushed stone, washed off
the facing and binder, and the water,
getting through, softened the Dad un-
der the rock until ONE of it was in
such condition as to make speed work
impossible. Good weather would have
rectifed these faults, but everything
seemed on the reverse gear for the
Milwaukee fellows. Instead of sun
shine and warm, drying winds. they
drew more rain and winds that were
as damp as a spaniel pup in the duck
season.
Early Saturday it was announced
! that the Vanderbilt would start as
/ scheduled at IL o'clock, but at 9:45
the clouds gave way and this, coupled
with h rain of the night before. put
the race u of the question.
This local agents met in solemn
council Saturday afternoon and game
ly decided to stick with the ship. They
are already in for about 100000, but
they turned down all offers to take the
race elsewhere and decided to post
pone the rae two weeks.
Racers Will Remain.
Next they left the Ptster hotel and
moved owe to the Plankinton for a
conference with the drivers n made
the proposition to the speed merchants
to keep them in Milwaukee, paying all
expenses until the race could be pulled
off according to original plans. The
drivers took to this offer in good spirit
and the suds city has for the next two
weeks become the capital of racing
motordom.
1t was a bitter disappointment,
though, to thousands. who despite un-
favorable looking weather conditions
crowded the city to watch the race.
The club acted in good faith, though,
as there vas nothing else for it to do.

I honestly think the Boston Red Sox
will win the worlds championship of
1872 With as much ease as we captur-
ed 1t in 1901. l not only think
they'll win the honors. but 1 sincere

team the last series in the Hub. l had
purposely saved Coombs. Plank and
Bender for nearly two weeks for these

was in the best possible condition they
could be in for such a series.

to me its class then and there. 1t
showed what q wonderful aggregation
and all-powerful machine it was.
Like u team of 1910. the harder
fought back. They put Plank to rout
in the Yer! first game by an attack
that was really wonderful. They re-

lucky in winning the final game. But,
as l have often said. such luck is all
in the game. and it's useless to dwell

They. however. made it three in a

too far. No man ever lived could do
this with any certainty. as it is really
a matter of guess work. Possibly the

may spring a surprise. But unless the
unforeseen happens. the Boston Red
SoX. to my mind. will share the big end

No one realizes more than I do what
Il really marvellous game the Boston
team has played throughout the entire
season. 1t was not a team hat went
along with springs and jumps, but
kept up IL steady pace all year with
out the slightest semblance of a letup

class. But there are other features
