WHY TRAVEL FOR THIS?

Many people travel to far distant
points for change of climate" to build
up their strength.
Now what does this change of climate
do for them? Usually, if it does any
good at all, its effect is to make them
eat more.
But if you need more strength and
can't afford the time and expense OF
travel you need not be discouraged.
A. NJ. Sturz of Bronx borough, New
York, suffered from weak, tender lungs
and almost continual headaches for over
two months. In letter she says:
"Since | have been taking Vinol, the
symptoms OF lung trouble have disap-
peared and | have no more headaches.
Vinol has built me up and made me feel
even much better than | did before this
trouble came on"
Vinol. our delicious cod liver and iron
remedy without oil builds you up by
making you eat more and digest better.
II enriches the blood with tonic iron at
the same time. Try Vinol. II it does
not benefit you, we will give back your
money. Red Cross Pharmacy, Barre, Vt.

DESTROYED ON BAAcKE's ORDER.
He Admits Directing That Evidence Be
Disposed OF.

New York May l0.--The question as
to whether officers of the American Steel
& Wire company ordered the destruction
of evidence used in the wire pool" cases
before or after the filing of the pending
dissolution suit against the United
States Steel corporation, was answered
yesterday.
Vice President Baackes testified he
gave the order for the destruction to
George Craigin. assistant sales manager
at Worcester, Mass, early last October.
The suit was' filed October 26. Baackes
further testified he gave orders after the
dissolution of the wire pool three years
ago for the destruction of all papers
connecting his company with the pool
operations, but the order had been only
partly executed. This oversight allowed
the papers now in question to get into
the governments hands. Baackes en-
phaIieally denied he intended to sup
press evidence by the destruction of the
papers.

Says Colonel Roosevelt is a
Man Prompted by Whims"
.OF "lMPERIOUS AMBITIONS"
And Is zone Who Would Break the Rule
of His Party and Country and His
Own Word to Gain the Seat
of a Friend"

Los Angeles, Calf. May l0.-In a
speech here last night in which Secre'
tary of State Knox made his first po-
litical utterance since his return from
Central America, he defended President
Taft from Col. Roosevelt's criticisms and
attacked the colonel as man prompted
by whims," OF "imperious ambitions,
vanities and mysterious antipathies,"
and as zone who would break the rule OF
his party and country and his own word
to gain the seat of friend
Roosevelt's new nationalism was
termed "as violent an assault upon the
autonomy of the states as the new ma
tionalism of 1861 was upon the integrity
OF the union"
Refuting Roosevelt's claim that Taft
is unfit for reelection, Knox cited the
colonefs language, which in 1908 COM
mended Taft as "a true friend of reform
and true foe OF abuses"
The secretary compared the claims TO
reform achievements of Taft and Roose-
welt, asserting the presidents accom-
plishments far outweigh those of his
predecessor.

ANTS ArE SMAKT URKUENthS
They Are Known to Grew Grain, Sewing and Harvesting Like
 Real Farmers.

Man is not the only animal who has discovered the division of the vege- table world into weeds on the one hand and garden plants on the other. Our ingenious little sixlegged work CTS, the ants, have anticipated us in this, as in so many other useful in- ventions and discoveries. There are ants in Texas which grow grain, and each nest owns a small claim in the vicinity of its mound on which 1t cul- tivates a kind of grass, commonly known as ant rice.
 The claim is circular, about ten or twelve feet in diameter, and the ants allow no plant but the ant rice to OD- croach upon the cleared space any where.
 The produce of the crop they care fully harvest, though authorities are still disagreed upon the final question whether they plant the grain or mere ly allow it to SOW it's own seed on the protected area.
 One thing. however. is certain that no other plant is permitted to sprout on the tabooed patch The ants wage war on weeds far more vigorously and effectively than our own agriculturists.

Mary Star College
 Players in Majors

NEW YORK, April 5:-Among the endless variety of all" teams which have been picked in the realm Oi sport there is one field which has been shamefuny neglected, the col lcge baseball field. All colleges hines are chosen annually, but mo- hody has tackled an "ail" all-colIege team; that is, one chosen without any limit
 An all college team of this sort can be found which would be as strong an array as could be put to- gether, whether professional or what not for a majority O. it's players would be men who since leaving college have turned professional. The fact that they have turned professional and have been professionals of high rank is tho best proof of their ability. So naturally the place to look for mem bers of this hypothetical team is in the professional ranks.
 Many Good Ones Out
 The colleges have had players who had they turned professionals would have been among the best, and there are a few that never turned profsS' sional who, nevertheless, were so pro ficient that they make the all-colleSe team for all the time, but there have n't been many of these. In baseball the two major leagues are the highest measure of skill and consequently demonstrations Of ability to travel up in this company is the best of req sons for choosing anybody who has done so for the team in question.
 The field is a wide one, but the fol- lowing team would not only be the strongest team of college players pos silble to select, but. as said, it could hold it's own with any kind or an all star aggregation.'

 The foregoing team is strong De vond the average in every position
Bisbee daily review., 1912-04-06

Any manager would jump at the chance of piloting such a team through q big league race. The non-profes- sionals on the list are Carter, Reid, Kafer and Jones. Neal Snow, who played first base and the outfield at Michigan, and Harry Keator. Yale captain and out-fielder, are mighty nearly entitled to place on the team for they were college players of eX. ceptional skill. Jake Stahl. Illinois, and Fred Penney Brown could be placed on the team, but both were catchers when in college, and besides the team has G. Harris Doc) White, Georgetown. who could be substitut ed for Plank without hurting the pitching department much.
 Some Past Performers
 Walter Carter was a wonderful col lege pitcher in his day and good enough fer the big leagues had he cared to become a professional Bill Reid O. Harvard. Tad Jones of Yale and Red Kafer of Princeton were all tackstops above the average, heady catchers, good throwers and hard hit ters. They had the native ability to G+NelCp luOO 4lSL NldoS NsANeACA0 N~ professionals. Chief Meyers has dem onstrated his ability, but he has made such big improvement as Giant that it is a question whether he was in the class with the three men men tioned when he was in college.
 Coombs, White, Bender, Mathew son-what better pitching stan could any club want? And then an infeld composed of Chase, Collins, Barry and Devlin-why, that's as alright quartet of inner garden guardians as tie present Athletics with their crach infield have. 1t is made up of field CTS. base runners, hitteTs and every one of the four a smart ball player.
 As to the outfield. it isn't as strong a hitting trio as some. but a pretty oapab e batting combination neverthe- less and a combination of batters, sIiders and base runners that makes il a rare run getting combination. Cree is a 300 batter and Fulz was one Of the best sliders the game has had, and he and Thomas covered a wide expanse of ground on the defense It also would be a good throwing ousield.
 Even Hugh Jennings, who doesn't enthuse over college players, might rejoice in a team such as this.
