Keen the Balance Up.

II has been truthfully said that any
disturbance Of the even balance of
health causes serious trouble. Nobody
can be too careful to keep this balance
up. When people begin to lose appe-
tite, or to get tired easily, the least
inprudence brings on sickness. weak~
ness. or debility. The system needs a
tonic, Graves it, and should not be de-
MED it: and the best tonic OF which
We have any knowledge is Hoods Sar-
sapariia. What this medicine has
done in keeping healthy people healthy,
in keeping Zip the even balance of
health. gives 1t he same distinction as
a preventive that it enjoys as a cure.
Its early use has illustrated the Wis
dom of the old saying that stitch in
time saves nine. Take Hoods for APP
settle, strength and endurance.

CANNON BALL PITCHER
is NOT HARD TO CATCH

Is Walter Johnson hard pitcher
to catch? When one watches his ter
rifle speed and dazzling curves he
surmises that it is one tough job to
receive the big Swede. Charley Street
was the first catcher to receive the
delivery of the Idaho phenom." Street
had trouble in handling him in the
first few games, but after that it
seemed a very easy job for Street.
He always insisted that johnson was
easier for him to catch than any 9TH
.er member of the Washington staff,
but such a statement was never taken
seriously. When Clark Griffith traded
Street to the New York team last win
ter il was believed that he had made
a boot. On past performances it did
not seem as If Washington had a catch
er who could hold Johnson. 1t was
thought his effectiveness would be
greatly decreased. On the contrary,
Ainsmith is catching Johnson better
than Street ever did, and Walter adj
mits he would prefer the youngster to
the veteran.

to show the aspfrant to athletic PROV
ess the way to do things best. The
coach need not be dissatisfied at my
labelling him an empiric. A clever en-
piric is better any day than a muddle

Boston is Breaking" Says Eddie
Collins, of The Champ Athletics
By EDDIE" COLLINS.

(Secohd Baseman of the Athletics. ]
At last the Boston team has shpwT
signs of breaking-very slightIbu
still an indication OF slowing up. The
team is not winning games with the
same facility it displayed up to the
last week or two, and other clubs with
stations much farther down in the
standing are coming from behind and
beating the Red Sox after they have
accumulated a lead This means that
the pitchers are not as strong as they
were ". -. III. s.
Let Stahl lose his pitchers and he
will have a great fight on his hands
The evident strain of the drive for
the wire, with all the possibilities OF
a worlds series, is beginning to tell
The Athletics are much encouraged on
the week. With greater frequency the
names of two pitchers are appearing
In the Boston box scores instead OF
just one. .~
How About Senators2 =
But there is a thorn in the side OF
the Athletics and Red Sox which
pricks deeper with the passing of each
week. There is the Washington club.
Its unexplained squirt of, the early sea
son has become sustained flight,
with extremely serious possibilities.
No less baseball light than Frank
Chance has selected the Washington
teom to win the American League pen
nant, and admit that 1t is probably
playing the steadiest ball in the league.
Each week that Griffith maintains his
place just behind the Red Sox and
just ahead of us, he stands better
chance. His men are not under the
nervous strain caused by worry over
falling hack from the dizzy heights of
first place and have no fear in their
hearts of the criticism which is bound
to exude from every pore Of the home
papers should they once have com.
Portable lead and then drop. A team
In. second place has not that to con.
tend with. ag, l.. ssz.
Now that no great alterations have
been made in the standing of the team
as a result of this last Western trip
1t looks as il the championship were
going to be decided in those few vital
series In the last part of August and
the beginning Of September, when the
three contending teams meet one am
other. Some one of the trio is bound
to break then and 60 under for good.
A great deal will depend upon what
shape the clubs are in at that time.
1t is on these series that the Athletics
are counting to get up on even terms
and finally win the pennant 50
The Athletics should be In the best
shape Of the three when the Important
games come around. This last week
has shown q big improvement in the
team. Oldring is back in the game
