TENER PROPOSES ECONOMY
National League by Unanimous Vote
Ratifies Presidents
Policy

New York, Dec. 9.-Governor John
Kinley Tener, of Pennsylvania, whose
first really active term as executive
of the National League was ushered in
at the beginning of the annual meet.
ing in the Waldorf-Astoria yesterday
afternoon, won over his colleagues to a
policy Of radical economy in his first
step of active administration. His Ex-
celleney carried unanimously resolu-
tion to limit the playing rosters of the
clubs to twenty-one men each and made
his point so strong that the New York
club, which had expressed antagonism
toward tho measure, was the most ar
dent in pressing it.
The league also adopted rule limit
ing the expenses of spring training by
making it a misdemeanor for any team
to go into spring camp before March
/. In addition ii tabooed barnstorm-
ing of players after the close of the
season, except in such cases as the Ma
tional Commission deemed expedient
for the exploitation of the national
pastimc in fertile fields. The National
{ League recommended that its rival, the
American, should be asked to grant
g representation ON the joint rules COM
mittee to the National Association, the
governing body of the minors.
II is understood that the National
I League will recommend to the Ameri-
can League an agreement whereby an
te-season city championships between
rival major league teams will be ia
booed. johnson and his henchmen are
said to approve of this plan in order
to restore the annual openings to all
their old time favor. OF course iso-
lated cities or those which have only
one major representative will be per-
mitted as usual to book spring attrac-
tions with teams of the other league.

Railroad To Run Lunch Counter Cars.

In placing lunch-counter Car in ser
vice on two of its fast trains between
Philadelphia and New York, leading
eastern railroad has made an interesting
innovation in passenger-train service.
This car, which is illustrated and des-
cribed in the February Popular Mectan-
les Magazine, is now being run on trains
that also carry standard dining cars. 1t
is TO be conducted on exactly the same
lines as lunch room in big city, with
the same quickness OF service and The
Same informality. II the car proves as
popular as anticipated, the service is to
be extended to include all trains on this
system where dining facilities are requlr-
ed.
The new car is so #. long and has the
same exterior appearance as an all steel
passenger coach, but the interior is radl-
cally different from that OF standard din
ing Car. Instead of tables there is one
long mahogany counter extending over
hall the length of the car and providing
room for 2l people, and facingthis coun-
ter, on one side, are revolving mahogany
chairs secured to the floor. Back OF the
counter against the wall is a row OF cup
boards for supplies, while shelves tor
linen and silver occupy the space under
the counter. The pantry and kitchen, the
latter / | it. long, are at the end OF the car.
The car is lighted by electricity and is
ventilated by an electrically operated ex-
haust fan.

changeabIe Climate
is A CONSTANT THREAT TO THE
HEALTH OF THE PEOPLE.

DR.. Hartman, Of Columbus, Ohio,
discusses an important health topic.
He says:
Yes, 1t Is the climate, not the germs,
that we have to fear in this country.
The germs are present, to be sure,
and are Of some significance in
diagnosis. Climate, a changeable
climate, Is the true cause Of disease.
The atmospheric pressure varies, the
humidity Of the atmosphere changes.
Every day the temperature rises and
falls. All this presents to the body
very great trials to adjust to.
The area Of high pressure forms IN
the northwest. Moves rapidly south
east, subjecting millions Of our
population to its influence. The re-
suit is, thousands upon thousands Of
people catch cold. A small per cent.
Of these thousands do not get we'll Of
their cold. 1t goes into pneumonia,
or chronic catarrh, or bronchitis, or
laryngitis, or pleurisy.
Now, what am getting at Is this.
These climatic changes are inevitable.
No one can prevent them. The very
best we can do Is to prepare for
them, defend ourselves against them.
Good health is the best preventive.
The very best. Vigorous health. with
excess vitality, this is Natures own
preventive and protection.
We do not all have this, however.
Some Of us must have assistance.
The assistance that use for myself,
would recommend for my friends to
use, my neighbors and my country
men, is Pe-ru-na. Keep Pe-ru-na in
the house.
If the children indicate they are
catching cold, give them Pe-ru-na-
If the parents, the grandfather or
grandmother, present those symptoms
that are so well known which precede
a cold, q few doses Of Pe-ru-na and
the deed Is done.
Some people are very subject to
colds. Others who have weak lungs
and are timid about our winter
weather, take Pe-ru-na off and on
during the whole winter season.
The plan is a good one. The medicine
is inexpensive. 1t does no possible
harm to the system. 1t keeps the
appetite regular and keen. 1t as
sists digestion and helps the user
through the inclement weather OF
winter
