%nuisances that must result from the eX-

The Improvements Of Il house unfit for
habitation mainl; consists in struc-
tural changes in the building and it's
plumbing and drainage equipment.
Such changes will often be resisted by
the owner. To enforce laws against
of building, legal and health authorities
are required.
The cooperation Of health officials is
required in the keeping Of both old and
new houses fit for habitation. Their
function is the practice Of practical
sanitation and instruction to tenant,
owner and agent. This means tactful,
tirelesS enforcement OF laws which
prohibit overcrowding, unclean accu-
mutations. the presence of horses, pigs
and goats, the occupation Of unfit Gel
lars and attics as well as the affirma-
tive requirements that the house and
appurtenances, especially plumbing and
drainage, shall be kept clean and in
good repair. The means for accom-
%plishing these results consist in an ade-
quate inspection service acting upon its
own initiative as we'll as upon con
plants, a sufficient office force and an
individual record for each house.
These tools of administration must
be supported by prompt court action

Take Plenty of Time to Eat.

There is a saying that rapid eating is
slow suicide" If you have formed the
habit of eating too rapidly you are most
likely suffering from indigestion or con-
.stipation, which will result eventually in
serious illness unless corrected.
Digestion begins in the mouth. Food
should be thoroughly masticated and in
salivated. Then when you have a full
ness of the stomach or feel dull and
stupid after eating, take one of Cham
berlain's Tablets. Many severe cases of
stomach trouble and constipation have
been cured:by the use of these tablets.
They are easy to take and most agree

HOW TO START A
HOUSING REFORM
The Danger That Springs From
Ignorant Living.
ITS PREVENTION AND CURE.
Work Must Proceed Along Three Lines
First, Construction of New Houses;
Second, Demolition of Old Houses;
Third, Proper Maintenance.

Bad housing consists in houses that
are poorly lighted, unventilated, damp,
imperfectly drained. exposed to undue
fire peril, in bad repair, vermin infest-
ed, disease infected, with uncleanIy
surroundings, with insufficient water
supply, without toilet accommodations
adequate for comfort. cleanliness and
privacy: with defective plumbing,
with overcrowded rooms and with eel
lar tenements.
Such houses are dangerous to moral
and physical health. social and per-
sonal,' and increase Industrial inefa-
cheney, inebriety, dependence, poverty,
disease, death, juvenile delinquency,
debased citizenship. vice and crime,
degeneracy of race.
The prevention and cure of bad hous-
ing conditions must proceed along three
lines:
First.-Every new dwelling and tene-
ment must be constructed so as to
afford suitable living accommodations.
Second.-Every old house not now fit
for habitation must either be demolish-
ed or improved so as to be fit.
Third.-All %habitations. new and old,
must be maintained in good repair and
sanitary condition.
Standards for new houses depend
upon the application of physical laws
and hygienic principles. Standards for
window design and courts upon which
windows open depend upon the physi-
cal laws which govern the transmits
sion and absorption of light and u
observation Of the actual illumination
produced.
The time has come when provisions
now in effect with respect to tenements
should be applied also to habitable
DON in other classes Of buildings.
The health officer should be able to
demonstrate the advantages which re-
suit from standards of this nature. He
may be sure that no effort in housing
advance is so sure of lasting reward
as the successful expression of worthy
standards in new habitations.

Rucker to the Reds recently may de-

bah called "the thumbless delivery. -
After the game II was found that
Rucker pitched the nine wonderful

This ball came up TO the batters

Then Nap would drive one with
what little speed he could command
and the Reds. forced to hit, drove
il out as best they could

times, but the game nevertheless was
marvellous for a man in his condition.

"Oh, Richards was just taking il

In the final heat, however, they had
it out for blood. 1t was at five miles
and they started cautiously. Rich
ards, fearing Mcneil, went out after a
mile with a terrific showing of speed,
1t looked as though the Indian would
run the Jap off its wheels. But then
Mcneil opened up and like a witch
on a broomstick he whirled mystic
riously out into the lead and held it.
At the finish Richards closed with
one of those uncanny bursts of speed
that he always seems able to conjure

Mcneil let out another notch and
whirled across the chalk line the wins

HUNTING HIRSIG
LANDS No GAME
BUT SPINS YARN

n NASHVILLE, TENN, June 20
IN President William Alibi Hirsig,
of the Vanishing Vols returned
from his hunt for ball players
through the wilds of Ohio with his
game bag as fiat as the well-known
pancake, and instead of fielders he
accumulated stock Of highly inter
esting tales of 300 wallpapers and
.999 fielders he would at an early
date dress up in Nashville uniforms

forged to the front as a yarn spin
ner that quite a number of the six
best-seller publishers are entreating
him to turn out a batch of storyettes

Calmly brushing away a tear when
the announcement came that Red
Nelson's physician had warned him
against inhaling the germs that hob
mob around the club houses through
out the South, Hirsig unfolded q
story of grabbing either Almeida or
Dou5G rum the GtuS. Inc interest
ing story-teller held his listeners
spellbound, when he launched into
the Vols chances of securing the
Cuban, Almeida, or the hard hitting
Dodge to decorate the third cushion
for the Schwartzmen, and seeing that
he had the bugs groggy he put them
down for the count when he stated
that Tinker would probably also ship
to Nashville Marty Berghammer, the
former Cub, and "Rube" Groh, who
came from the Giants in the famous
trade for Arthur Fromme.

lease its claim on the ex-Pirate's

set down as the poorest judges IN

for on the ground of native son pride
and civic patriotism? A native son
is a real favorite at all times out
there if It can be figured that he has
as good as fighting chance.
I NASMUCH as both Jose Rivers
and Willie Richie may be tabled
up as real native sons, il looks as
II both Of them win be made favor
ties. That paradoXical statement may
need a little explanation, and here 1t
is They viii make Rivers the favor
tie down around the southern por-
ton of the State where he Is so
highly regarded. And in San Fran
cisco. where Willie comes from, they
win make him the choice. Hence
we may see the spectacle Of Frisco
people doing their betting in Los
Angeles where they can get a better
price and the people from the south
ern part Of the State doing their

w may be found 70 have in this
encounter, one Of the points against
him VIII be the fact that he will be
an alien and scrapping on the other
fellows own canvas This may not
look to be much OF a disadvantage
when II is considered that Rivers is
as much OF a native son as is Richie
But Rivers isn't from San Francisco,
while Richie IS, and the cheers Of
the crowd or the greater portion Of
these, win be for Richie. which may
be decidedly disConcerting for Rivers,
who Is used 10 monopolizing such
cheers himself having fought a vast
majority of his contests in his own
ring at Los Angeles.
THE question OF Rivers gameness
doubtless win be given the an
swer in this battle. It will be q
crucial test for the little Mexican be-
cause he hasn't met quite such a
rapid fire. jabber as the Richie boy
IS liable to be in this match. And
