How We Breathe.

The lungs themselves have no pow
err of expanding and contracting; we
breathe by means Of the muscular
action of the chest wall These mus
cles raise the ribs, enlarge the chest
cavity and by suction initiate the
lungs. Similarly the opposing mus
cles. by pulling the the ribs down
and COMPRISING the lungs, force
the air out of them. SO that if we
are to have good lung action and in
sure an abundance of fresh air in the
lungs at all times, we must possess
good muscular development of the
chest. Those who lead sedentary
lives, to maintain good muscular ac-
tiou of the hest, should t Ike a few
minutes of breathing exercises once
or twice daily. Corsets and tight
clothing impede proper lung action
and favor the development of the
long list of diseases due to imperfect
aeration Of the blood.
Fresh Air.
Fresh air is another essential to
good lung action. The nerve centers
that control the automatic action OF
the breathing muscles operate much
more vigorously when the air is fresh
!
Practically all diseases Of the lungs
are bad air diseases. Pulmonary
tuberculosis, the principal chronic
J disease of the lungs, may be almost
entirely avoided by living in wav
to get plenty of fresh air at all times
Lack of sufficient fresh air plays nc
small part in bringing about rheu.
matism. catarrh, nervousness, anc
many digestive disturbances.

Food-Supplies OF
The Warning
Nations.

We have been told by various
correspondents and experts that
the fighting nations have waists
stores of TODD for the Army and
NAVY; aud especially note IS made
that Germany has seven years
supply on hand.
The facts seem to be the Oppo-
site, None of these nations have
much TODD stored. Very possibly
some few Of the tortresses may
have a good supply for their gar
risons. but certainly not Tor large
armies Statistics show that
Germany is obliged to import
about 60 per cent OF it's gram
supply even in the face of good
harvests. Most OF the vessels
which normally carries the grain
are British. Germany will not
get this necessary grain now.
Starvation will fight against
her in company with pestilence.
The Austrian and Servian forces
are already fighting against the
ravages OF Cholera. England
and France depend upon other
nations. So long as England
controls the sea, she is safe. when
her fleets fail. then England will
starve. The facts seem to be
that none of the warning nations
have much food on hand, and 8

Zeppelin Raids.

HfA
In "A recent article the London
Express declares that while Lon
lon has not AS much to fear from
hostile air-ships AS continental
cities, yet an aeriel attack upon
London is a possibility. In &C
cordance with this, the War de
partment is taking precaution
airy measures to minimize the
danger.
The Army has aeroplanes and
lerigIbles on the watch for aerial
invaders; and searcbliehts are
continually used at night to
search out the darkness and pre-
vent surprises; also the British
are provided with a newly inven-
ted gun to attack hostile airships
Itappears that the much talked
of Zeppelin raid upon London
will very likely end in a bathos
The fact Of the matter is that the
German Zeppelin is too highly
rated as war machine. It's eff
ects are more psychological than
real.
Furthermore, we anticipate a
general protest OF civilization
against the barbarIous methods
of Germany who use these mach
ines tor the murder of nOn-cOm-
batants. This is not le itimate
warfare, but cold blooded muir
der. II there is one thing that
stirs up the anger OF even neutra
nations, it is this fearful slaugh-
ter OF women and children by
cowardly mountaineering from
Zeppelins. 1t is not so much ths
amount of damage they do, AZ
the fact that the victims arr
non-combatants.

THE LUNGS.
Their Work and Something About
Their Hygiene.
(By DR.. R. R. Daniels)..

On account of their wonderful
construction and the wore they do,
the lungs are amo' q the most inter
estinR organs of the body. he lungs
are composed Of many tiny air sacs,
each Nth its air tube, which unltes
with other air tubes from other sacs
until one large tube is formed, lead
ing from each lung. These large
bronchial tubes unite to form the one
tube, the trachea, or wind pipe The
air sacs which make up the lurgs
are cou.pcsed Of several layers OF
thick, tough, membrane; between
these layers are many small blood
vessels, so located that only a very
thin membrane separates the air in
the cells ard the blood. Through
this thin membrane the impure gases
in the blood pass into the air sac.
and the oxygen of the air passes
into the blood.

Had the games been delayed few days
longer. the Nationals would have been

would not have been nearly as great. 1t
is likely that the series in each section
will be ended before the professionals get
back. which is almost certain largely to

pm. Dick Woodward. umpire.

The Rex Athletic Club nine went to
Alexandria yesterday and lost both games
of the double-header played with the
Cardinals. Both teams scored a lot of
runs, but the count in each contest was
close The first was won by the Vir-
ginians by IA to 13, and the second by
8 to s.
The general work of Allensworth for
the Cardinals and Long for the Rex Ath-
letic Club featured the first contest while
Devers performed brilliantly at short for
the Cardinals in the closing part of the
bill. The last mentioned probably did the
best playing of the day. He connected
for three hits out of five times at bat,
and his fielding was excellent.
A nine representing the Walter Reed
Hospital defeated the Braddocks by a
score of to =. Sutton played best for
the Braddocks, while Ely and Frederick
son were the stars for the hospital nine.
A team composed of all-stars lost to the
Vigilants yesterday at the Vigilants Park
by d score of to 5. The Vigilants
tailed five times in the first period, but
were not able to score afterward The
two runs made by the All-stars came in
the seventh.
Callan played a nice game for the
Vigilants at second. while Speith did the
best work for the Allstars.

McGRAW AFTER ZIMMERMAN.
Offers Fromme and Either Stock or
Grant for Slugger.

NEW YORK, August 10.-John ]. NC
Graw. manager of the Giants. in try
ing to strengthen the fences around
his championship, made a bid Satur-
day for the services of Heine thinner
man. the slugging third baseman of the
Cubs McGraw offered Pitcher Art
Fromme and either Milton Stock or Ed
die Grant for the Bronx fence breaker.
There is every probability Of such a
deal being consummated. Hank O'Day is
very badly in need of another pitcher,
now that cheney is not in winning form.
Zimmerman has been more or less re-
fractory with O'Day. He is very difficult
to manage even in his best moods, and
Is out of the game about half of the
time for insulting the tender feelings
Of the umpires.
McGraw has often expressed to
friends the belief that he would be able
to harmonic with Zimmerman and hold
him in check so far as to get the very
best out of him. Moreover. Heine would
be perfectly satisfied to reside per-
manently near the home fireside.
McGraw's offer seems a fair one to
both sides. Chicago would lose a re-
fractory third baseman and in his stead
secure competent successor. more
amenable to law and reason, besides a
pitcher so badly needed by O'Day. Nc
Graw would add hitting power to his
team and a player who would be great
drawing card in New York.

BOSTON IS BURNING UP
THE NATIONAL LEAGUE
Has Reached Fourth Place in Pen
nant Race and Is Worrying
the Giants.

A month ago any fan who suggested
that the Boston Braves were due TO
worry and harass the Giants or any 9TH
er aspiring leader for the top Of the
National League ladder would have been
considered as eligible for any place but
where sane persons mingle. Yet today
Boston is the club which is causing New
York more concern that the other two
first division place holders. The Braves,
by as sensational a climb as was ever
known in modern base ball. have crept
slowly, surely and persistently up the
ladder rung by ring until today they are
in fourth place. going strong and steady.
and within eight points of St Louis In
third place. They have a chance and
good one at that to yet head off the
Giants and probably no club would be
more welcomed as a National League
champion than Staliings' fighting crew, II
they could accomplish this feat. Tney
are only six and one-half games behind
the Giants. a distance they can bridge
easily enough on their present form ana

The Braves began their wonderful climb
from obscurity July 6. when they beat

for 800 per cent
It's no wonder McGraw is now seriously
taking to heart the remark Stallings
made last spring when he said that the
Braves would be the club which would
give the Giants all the trouble they
wanted in the late weeks of the chase.
There Is nothing fiukey about the
Braves work. They have time and again
come from behind in the closing innings
to overcome what seemed impossible
lead against them, while in other con-
tests Tyler, James and Rudolph have
hurled shut-out ball while their team
mates were getting the necessary runs
to win. Possibly with the exception of
Johnny Evers there is not a real star on
the team. but that headliners are not
necessary ingredient on a ball club
George Stallings is now proving to the
