because America has never really had
the thing. The word over there has
always had literary and sentimental
associations, and finally has come to
be used for the most magnificent sum-

farther than the use of the word In
England to mean villa. In Amer

A Trained Nurse Discovered Its Effect.

No one is in better position to know
the value Of food and drink than a
trained nurse.
Speaking of coffee, a nurse in Pa,
writes: 81 used to drink strong cof-
fee myself, and suffered greatly from
headaches and indigestion.
while on a visit to my brothers l
had good chance to try Postum, for
they drank it altogether in place OF
coffee. After using Postum two weeks
l found I was much benefited and
finally my headaches disappeared and
also the indigestion.
Naturally have since used Postum
among my patients, and have noticed
a marked benefit where coffee has
been left IF md Postum ueed.
"I observe :. curious fact about
Postum whom used by mothers. It
greatly helps the flow Of milk in cases

STUDY THE FOOTBALL RULES
All Players Can Get Copy Of Them
for Nominal Sum-suggestIons
for Boys Are Given.

After ten days of more or less irk.
some practice by his variegated squad
in the rudiments of football, either
the captain of a sand-lot football team
has made good as a captain, estab-
fishing a firm hold on the other Glem-
Der of the gang who are trying for
the team, or else a revolution has
taken place and the erstwhile cap
tain has become private in the
ranks.
1t is also possible that the captain
has found the job too big for him,
and has gracefully stepped down be-
fore he could be set down.
But, in any case, boys. at this stage
you should decide once and for all
who the captain is going to be. It
does not do to have IL captains on a.
football team, or even two. The cap
tain must and should be the boss in
every sense of the word. Let him do
the talking and take your orders from
him henceforth.
He in turn should welcome and en-
courage suggestions from the players,
but these suggestions should not be
made during practice hours. when the
captains voice should be the only
voice heard to any extent.
ALI other things being equal, the
captain of the team should be either
the quarterback, who directs the at
tack in any case, or the man who
plays defensive quarter, nowadays the
most important position on the team.
If you have a manager he should
now see about arranging games
ahead, taking plenty of time to investi-
gate and see that the teams sched-
uled are neither too heavy nor too
light, and that they have a suitable
field to play on in case you are to go
to them.
Do you know the rules? There
should be at least one ten-cent copy
of the official guide in every football
camp, and, if you can afford it, by
all means have your own individual
copy Any sporting goods concern
can supply the rules books, which
you should study at least as faith
fully as you do the geography.
Besides the rules, the guide book
contains many valuable suggestions,
also pictures which show legal and
Illegal methods of play.
Football is a rough game and you
should play it rough, but always with
in the rules. No f1rst-class coach
teaches or encourages his men to
break the rules, as he knows, for
one thing, that there is a heavy pen.
atty for every infraction when the
officials get wise to 1t.
Study the rules until you can pass
with a mark of 100 in an oral or writ
ten examination on them.
