MUCH VIRTUE IN GOOD YAWN
eeneficial Exercise, Though 1t Might
Be Well for One to Select tho i.
2 Time and Place. IL i ~ ..

Yawning may be rude especially in
company-but 1t is good thing for
you to do. s
For one thing, it ventilates the
lungs. When you take an ordinary
breath the lungs are not completely
filled, nor are they thoroughly emptied
by an ordinary respiration. There is
certain quantity of air left in the
lungs always, which psychologists call
residual air. BILL. ...s.. - = +.
This air IN time becomes foul and
affects the blood, and through the
blood the nervous centers. Certain
nerves get tickled, as 1t were, and
the result is a yaWn, stretching the
lungs to their fullest extent, filling
them with clean, fresh air and driving
the foul air out. s.:....~ -. -.
That's one reason why it is good to
yawn. For another, yawning opens
and stretches and ventilates all the
various passages leading to the lungs.
You will perhaps be surprised to
know that yawning is even beneficial
to your hearing. A. 81 Fl.
The cracking sound which you SO
often hear when giving an extra big
yaWn Is due to the stretching and
opening Of the eustachian tubes.
These tubes communicate between the
ear and the back Of the throat. II
they aresecongested, which happens
when you: have q bad cold in the head,
a.
y II you feel inclined to yawn, then,
do SO. It Is Natures way OF cleaning
out your lungs and air passages.

DOYLE, Second Baseman N. Y. Giants
THREE GOOD INDIAN PLAYERS
sockaIexis, Jack Meyers and Chief
Bender Only Ones to Be Rated
as First Glass.

Comparatively few Indians have
made good in professional baseball.
In recent years those who have sue
ceeded to regular positions with eth
err American or National League
clubs can be counted upon the fingers
of one hand.
Athletic trainers and coaches have
wondered at this. 1t is all the more
surprising when one stops to consider
that of all the nations there is none
which can boast of more natural ath-
letics than the aborigines. Some
mentors have tried to explain 1t by
saying that the race has been retro
crossing. This, of course, may be in
great measure responsible for the
condition.
Whatever the reason, it remains q
fact that only Sockalexis, Jack Mey-
ers and Chief Bender have attained
fame as big leaguers. Other Indians
have made good in the minors and
have been given trial in fast COM
pany, but they have invariably fallen
just one notch shy in their major
league ability. s
Notable among these were Jude, Z
reservation Indian, and II Roy, Chip
peWa. They have always been among
the best in their respective minor as
sociations, but have lacked an indefl-
mite something SO frequently the case
with good minor leaguers.
Now Jim Thorpe has been added
to the list, and in st. the Browns
may have an Indian playing shortstop
for them. Balenti, who had trial
with Cincinnati for a time, has been
turned over to George Stovall.
Sockalexis was regarded as one Of
the best players Of his time about
thirteen years ago. He played for
four year with Holy Cross, and then
played for about two seasons with
Cleveland, but frewater was the
cause Of his downfall.

VALUE QUEER RELICS HIGHLY
Large Sums Have Frequently Been
: Paid for Articles That Many
Z? Would, Call GreWsome.

It Is not every man, not every hero
worshiper, who would esteem the
tooth of his hero of more value than
diamonds. There is a ring belonging
to an English nobleman, in which the
place of honor, formerly occupied by
a diamond, is given to tooth that
once did duty in human jaw. 1:
This tooth cost no less than three
thousand six hundred and fifty dol
lars; but it was the tooth Of Sir Isaac
Newton. A relic collector sold it at
auction in 1916, and the nobleman
who bought it gave it the place Of q
diamond in his favorite ring.
Another tooth, which SO far excites
the veneration Of hero worshipers as
to be able to hold a court Of its own
and to draw from long distances 2
small host Of followers, Is one that
was originally hidden behind the lips
OF Victor Hugo. It is kept ut his
former residence In q glass case bear

the Jaw Of Victor Hugo by the dentist

The wig Of q literary man appears
to have been even more sought after
than his teeth. That which Sterne
wore while writing "Tristram Shandy"
was sold soon after the writer's death
for ten thousand dollars; and the
Sfavorite chair Of Alexander Pope
brought Ave thousand dollars.
