Manager Hughey Jennings Of the
Detroit Tigers. who in the winter time
is a thespian. recently expressed de-
cided opinion that all ball players are
fizzles as actors. He admits that he
is one himself. and insists that all 9TH
er diamond stars are in his class, but
they ge. the money on their reputation
as diamond stars.
81 have heard it said that ball play
ers have no more business on the
stage than actors have on the bail
field he said.
That may be true I think ii is;
but the fact remains tina the ball
players who go on the stage are draw
ing considerably more money than
even the good actors.
The ball player may make a fizzle
OF his performance from a dramatic
point OF view, but he gets the money
/ just the same on his reputation as a
/ diamond ar.
And wouldn't 1t be foolish for him
to turn it down."

talk by answering questions regard

Avoid sedative Cough Medicines.

If you wish to contribute directly to
the occurrence of Capillary bronchitis
and pneumonia use cough medicines
that contain codeine, morphine, heroin
and other sedatives when you have a
cough or cold. An expectorant like
Chamberlain's Cough Remedy is what
is needed. That cleans out the cul-
lure beds or breeding places for the
germs of pneumonia and other germ

never results from cold when Cham

THE CASE OF suLzER.

The impeachment trial Of Governor
Sulzer, of New York, resulted in hi
conviction. He has been deposed from
his high Office and driven forth dis
graced.
1t seems to be a sad case for the
reason that the wolves who pursued
him were members of perhaps the
most INSCRIPTIONS political gang that
has cursed the country for years.
They were after Sulzer, not because
he was guilty of high crimes and mis-
demeanors but because he turned
against Tammany which had made
him and kept him In Office for many
years. If he had continued subser-
Went to the orders of Murphy and his
organization he would have been per-
mitted to serve out his term undis-
turbed
The verdict is therefore a victory
for this VIGOROUSLY corrupt organi-
cation. That is the reason and the on
ly reason why many people sympa-
thize with Sulzer. However, that fact
does not hide the other evident fact
that Sulzer was unfit TO hold the high
office to which he had been elected.
The evidence showed him up in an ex-
oeedingly bad light.
When public official poses as re-
former and is found TO be a crook it
is public calamity for it smirches
and discredits the cause of reform. 4
When a preacher of righteousness is
discovered to be a man of immoral
life he does more harm to the cause
of purity and right living than doz-
en- men who are confessed libertines.
The man who advocates honesty, to
be effective, must himself be honest.
The person who breaches the need of '
purity should himself be pure.
Many men may believe and do be- |
lieve in things that are vastly higher s
and better than what they practice, Q
but we cannot avoid being judged by
what we do rather than by what we
say Sulzer evidently intended to try r

Ted and ruined
The leaders of Tammany will gloat
yer the downfall of Sulzer because
hey think it shows that public men
o not dare to defy that powerful or
aniEation. They are wrong. The
eminent of the country is more
trongly opposed to Tammany and its
lethods than ever before. The down

: than ever before the infamy of
ammany and the unscrupulousness

About the man Sulzer the people
