Z GERTRUDE NJ. PRICE.

BY GERTRUDE NJ. PRICE,
Ever since FRITZ Brunette was
a dear little sun-bonnet baby she
has been "just crazy" over pic
lures. So 1t is no wonder that,
now she has grown up, she be-
lieves there is no life quite as
fascinating as that which the
moving picture player enjoys.
FRITZ isn't a bit frislSy in her
manner. On the contrary, she is
one of the demure type who seems
shy ON first acquaintance, and
folks have to guess what color
her big eyes may be. Bat, like
other girls, pretty or otherwise,
she can talk like a steam engine
when the shyness has worn away.
Miss Brunette, whose name
agrees admirably with her dark
hair, is the leading woman with
the Victor company in New York.
She plays opposite Owen Moore
in all the big, strong dramas and
comedies put out by the COM
pany. If you get way down deep
into this beautiful girls conf
dence, she may tell you Just how
much she loves baseball, riding,
driving, rowing and swimming.

OUR TRICKY NERVES

From the Kansas City Star.
In the matches for the international
tennis cup yesterday, ]. c. Parke, the
Irish champion, beat NJ e. Mclaughlin,
the American champion, a player who is
generally credited with outciassing Parke
in every department of the game. The
dispatch says that Mclaughlin showed
only flashes of his usual brllliancy."
It's queer what tricks our nerves play
on us. Every person who takes any part
in athletics has had the experience. He
may have had good nights sleep and
be feeling perfectly fit. fresh and eager
for the game. But when he begins to
play somehow things go wrong. Try as he
will, his muscles won't respond as they
should. His strokes aren't accurate. Moth
ing that he does is quite right. The best
baseball pitcher has his off days when he
is hammered all over the field. The tennis
champion occasionally plays like dub.
The golf expert sometimes foozles all his
strokes.
There is lack of coordination of the
muscles" the sharps say. That is, the
nerves haven't their usual control over the
muscular esystem. Against such a mu-
tiny the person owning the nerves is help
