Cavanagh believes that he is going
to lead Rutt over the tape, and the
big fellow may be right for he showed
more speed last Sunday than any
rider Aat the Velodrome. Cavanagh
is very uncertain, however He may
ride one of his good races, and il he
does will come very close to winning,
but he is just as apt to ride a poor
race. The dbfg local rider is in fine
shape and his good ride Sunday
should give him world of conf
denee. He went to Boston yesterday
to ride a match with Moretti, at the
Revere Beach track, which prevented
him from training, but sprint
match is as good as any training he
could have done.

OUTRAGEOUS ARE FOOD
PRICES NOW DEMANDED

Famine prices for food through
out the United States are arbitrarily
speculative and criminal They
have been imposed at time when
the greatest crops ever known are
maturing and in the face of an en-
barge upon foreign commerce that
may last long enough to glut our
warehouses.
1t is thus that the war-makers of
the earth heap terror upon terror
and add suffering to suffering. The
worst of their offenses is not al
ways to be seen upon the field of
battle. Savagery there has some
redeeming traits, such as courage.
devotion and sacrifice. In the
market-place it is altogether sordid
and calculating. In conflict. war
kills and mains men. In trade it
starves the aged, the young, the
weak.

be no such general and eXhorbitant

absence of combination and conspir-
acy.

The Treatment of
Influenza or La Grippe

It's quite refreshing these days to read of
q clearly defined treatment for Influenza or
La Grippe. In an article in the Lancet
Clinic" DR.. James Bell, of New York City,
says he is convinced that too much medica-
tion is both unnecessary and injurious.
When called to case of la grippe, the
patient Is usually seen when the fever is
present, as the chill which occasionally
ushers in the disease, has generally passed
away. DIR. Bell then orders that the bowels
be opened freely with salts, "Actoids" or
citrate of magnesia. For the high fever,
severe headache, pain and general soreness,
one Anti-kamnia Tablet every three hours
is quickly followed eby complete relief
Ask for AK Tablets" They are also unex-
cened for headache, neuralgia and all pains.
