DAVIS, BOSTON TWlRLER,
HAS BRILLIANT RECORD

George Al. Davis, Jr., who came into
prominence recently by pitching q no
hit, no-run game for the Boston Braves
against the Philadelphia club, is q
graduate of Williams college. His
great performance was not only q
pleasant surprise to Boston, but gave
Williams college men in all parts OF
the country much satisfaction.
Davis Is the son of Senator George
A Davis of New York. Prior to enter
ing Williams college he was in school
at St Johns Military academy, Man,
Illus. N. II, where he gave evidence OF
the ability which has now given him
national prominence in baseball.
In 1912 Davis pitched his last game
fer Williams, but he returned to col.
lege in the fall and is consequently
catalegued as a member of the 1913
class.
II any one will take the trouble to
delve into the college athletic rec
ords, heswill find that Davis performed
the wonderful feat Of striking out 20
against Wesleyan, May 2, 1872 In the
same year Williams won the eastern
intercollegiate baseball championship.
Davis was selected as the first pitcher
by the committee in charge of the
ranking. The year previous he was
second
Won the Title.
The 1912 williams college played Ia
games, winning II OF that number,
and walking OF with the intercollegi-
ate championship. Yale was beaten
81; Princeton. 30; Cornell, SIS; Dart.
mouth, 20 and Al; Holy Cross. 81.
Davis was captain of this all-conquer-
ing team, and considerable credit for
the large number of victories was due
to bis handling of the team and his
great pitching.
Davis won distinction in other ath-
letic activities than baseball. ] Fay
Newton, a personal friend of Davis.
writing in the Signet, a Williams coll
lege publication for December, 1912,
says:
Mr.. Davis early won the distinction
of being the strongest man physically
in the college, an honor which he. held
through his course, In a recent
strength test by the metric system he
established the remarkable figure Of

1888. This record exceeds that of
Hardwick. the strong man Of Harvard,
by 1888 points, and that of Hunting
ton. Harvard's strong man last year,
by 1862 points.

les and his interest in baseball, Broth
er Davis has high scholarship rec

Early in his college career Davis
attracted much attention by winning
from West point, 2 to 1. However,
at that time he was pitching second
to the best college box artist in the
country. Stewart Templeton, Of Chi
'cago. Temp had offers from almost
every team in the big leagues, but
he had plenty of money and his folks
did not want him to play professional
ball, so he turned down all Offers.
Davis was liked by everybody. in
college, although he was not an espe-
cially good mixer being rather quiet
and studious. AL

When Soldiers Were FIosged.

1t would have needed very alluring
form of advertisement indeed to at
tract men to the English army hun
dred years ago. Writing of that period
writer says: "Flogging was almost
universal The maximum number of
lashes were gradually reduced from
1900 to 300. but the notion that dis
ciplne could not be maintained with
out summary punishment continued to
be believed. and Wellington himself
dealt with fragrant cases by hanging
the culprits upon trees in the public
roads. One result was that only men
belonging to the lowest classes would
join the army" In III sentinel in
the guards was logged in St James
park so severely that he subsequently
died raving mad. His offense consisted
of saying that there was no more en-
couragement for good soldier than
for a bad one"

Music Born of Sorrow.

There is no nation naturally musical,
according to Henri Bidou, critic and
historian. IL nation is musical he
says, it is because it has passed
through such tribulation that 1t has
been driven TO express its sorrow and
anxiety In its airs and compositions
Bach. he declares. is the eliminating
expression of sufferings induced in
Germany by the Thirty Years war
fifty years before Bachs time.
People sing like towards" he con
tinues, to keep up their spirits in bad
moments, and he finds that the real
countries of music are nearly all from
tier provinces exposed to external vicis-
STUDIES.
England he finds exempt to large
extent from the occasions In which
poets learn in suffering what they
teach in song" because it is pro-
tected from invasion by the girdle of
the seas. Music, then. he argues, is not
an art Of peace; it originates in strife
and anxiety, not in tranquility and con-
cord. The overprosperous countries. he
discovers, mot only have no history;
they have no music. "-Chicago Inter

Dr. B. Halstead Scott, of Chica- go, Ill, says II have prescribed your Castoria often for infants during my practice and find it very satisfactory.
 Dr. William Belmont, of Cleve- land, Ohio, says " Your Castoria stands first in its class. In my thirty years of practice I can say I never have found anything that so filled the place" :"
 Dr. R. J. Hamlen, of Detroit, Mich, says I prescribe your Gas toria extensively as I have never found anything to equal it for chil- drens troubles. I am aware that there are limitations in the field, but I always see that my patients get Fletcher's."
 Dr. Charming H. Cook. of Saint Louis, Mo, says: "I have used your Castoria for several years past in my own family and have always found it thoroughly efficient and never objected to by children, which is a great consideration in view of the fact that most mcdi- cines of this character are obnox- ious and therefore difficult of ad- ministration. As a laxative I consider it the peer of anything that I ever prescribed.

 Dr. Howard James, of New York, City. says: |" It is with great pleas ure that I desire to testify to the medicinal virtue of your Castoria. I have used it with marked benefit in the case of my own daughter, and have obtained excellent results from it's administration to other children in my practice.
 e Dr. J. R. Clausen, of Philadel- phia, Pa, says "The name that your Castoria has made for itself in the tens of thousands of homes blessed by the presence of children, scarcely needs to be supplemented by the endorsement of the medical profession, but l, for one, most heartily endorse it and believe it an excellent remedy"

Dr. L. o. Morgan, of So. Amboy, N. J. says: "I prescribe your Casto- ria every day for children who are suffering from constipation, with better effect than I receive from any other combination of drugs"

 Dr. Wrn. L. Bosserman, of Buff falo, N. r, says: II am pleased to speak good word for your Casto- ria. I think so highly of it that not only recommend it to others, but have used 1t in my own family"
 Dr. F. H. Kyle, of St. Paul, Minn., says It affords me plea sure to add my name to the long list of those who have used and now endorse your Castoris. The fact of the ingredients being known through the printing of the formula on the wrapper is one good and sufficient reason for the recom- mendation of any physician. I know of its good qualities and re- commend it cheerfully."

 Dr. Raymond Nj. Evarts, of Santa Ynez, Cal, says After using your Castoria for children for years it annoys me greatly to have an ignorant druggist substitute some thing else, especially to the pa- tient's disadvantage, as in this case. I enclose herewith the wrapper of the imitation"
 Dr. R. M. Ward, of Kansas City, Mo-, says Physicians generally do not prescribe proprietary prepa- rstions, but in the case of Castoria nay experience, like that of many other physicians, has taught me to make an exception. prescribe your Castoria in my practice be- cause I have found it to be thor oughly reliable remedy for chill dren's complaints.
