COLLEGE WATER POLO

scorers than last year if they expect too light to be as successful in attack as big, fast men like Nourse and Selby of Princeton. Still, the necessary tim Der is not lacking. Miller, Brophy, Gait, Farrar, Black, Durfee, Kent, Sco- vii and Landstreet have the qualifica- tions and only require hard work and competent coaching to be up to the standard.
 Prospects at Pennsylvania are not especially bright just now. Captain Shryock and Russell unquestionably rank among the leading forwards, but the only other experienced players who can be counted upon are Swan, Rather. Walsh and TreadwelI, so that rather green recruits may have to be called upon There are a number of promising new men in training, how ever. and it is probable that few stars may presently come to light and con- siderably improve the outlook for the red and blue.
 The College of the City of New York squad is composed almost entirely of players lacking the weight to prove ef- fective in a hard fought contest. Their speed may give them the advantage for awhile, but the heavier teams will eventually wear them down. The varsity sextet will probably be made up of Clendenin, Babor, RudinslSy, Kerekes, Schulman and Auerbach. They have exhibited the best work 50 far.

TAKE THIS MAYS ADVICE
TRY THE GREAT KIDNEY REMEDY

It always gives me pleasure to recommend anything that is right and so I feel it my duty to herald the praises of Dr. Kilmers Swamp-Root. For years I was troubled with kid ney disease and it was so intense that I was bedridden for days at time |. I gave up all hope and doctors for miles around gave me no help. In- cidentally tried several patent reme- dies and at last tried Swamp-Root. From the first it gave me relief and it was no time before I was able to be up and around and now I am per fectly we'll and able to work as used to before my terrible sickness.
 So now let me thank you for your wonderful discovery and take this op- portunity to recommend it to all who suffer from kidney troubles.
 Yours very truly,
 WALTER SILVER, 317 N. Main St. Hope, Aak. Subscribed and sworn to before me, this 25th of March, 1912.

YES-IT IS POSSIBLE TO STOP RHEUMATISM

Rheumatism is a tormenting and stubborn malady. In some cases 1t yields to treatment which is without avail in other cases.
 The darting pains, lame muscles or stiffened joints only disappear by grad ually expelling the uric acid, and so many thousands have been relieved by the blood-enriching oil-food in Scott's Emulsion that you should give it a faithful trial. Scott's Emulsion acts as powerful blood-purifer by increasing the red corpuscles and it strengthens the organs to carry off the acids which cause the trouble.
 Try Scott's Emulsion. Itcannot harm. It has helped thousands and may be ex- actly what you need. No Alcohol.

How to Keep Track of Football Penalties

TN view of the fact that the present football rules provide for more pen alties than under the former playing code, it is not an easy task to keep | track of them unless followers of the game study them carefully. Certain plays come under the watchful eyes of each of the four officials. In many cases the referee, who must follow the | movements of the ball, is blamed for | inf1icting penalties, when, as a matter l of fact, he is enforcing the judgment
 of the umpire, field judge or lineman. In order to make clear the reasons for penalties so that the layman can | understand them they should be ex- plained in numerical order. A two yard penalty is imposed when a team calls for time without calling in sub stitutes more than three times during the first two periods. A five yard pen atty is inflicted when a team is off side"-when a player is in front of the line which passes through the end of the ball nearest his eleven.
 A ten yard penalty is incurred by a player of a team on the defensive who interferes with an opponent about to try for a forward pass; also by player who, in making forward pass, inten- LlOIldlly LII o"S IiiC OdlI u lIl6 SIOuIu or by an attacking player who runs into an adversary in the secondary de- fense after the ball has been declared dead
 For holding an opponent in the line of scrimmage a fifteen yard penalty is imposed; also when a man, taking part in the interference, uses his hands to throw would be tacklers out of the way A similar penalty is earned by players who trip men, with or without the ball, or Intentionally collide with and rough back after he has made a punt. If a substitute does not report to the ref cree, if there is interference with a fair catch, piling on runner after he has been downed, tackling out of bounds, hurdling the rush line or coaching from the side lines, the of lending team also must lose fifteen yards.
 Twenty-Five yards must be surren- dered by a team which is not prepared to resume play at the beginning of the third period. The disqualification of man for slugging or other unfair tac- tics means a penalty of half the dis tance to the goal line, and if such a player tries to return to the field this penalty Is repeated. If a foul is com mitted by team on the defensive within the one ward line half the dis tance Is lost

HOLLAND WILL NOT
 MEDIATE FOR PEACE
Dutch Government Has No Present In- tention of Offering Its Services
 To That End.

London, Nov. 16, a. m.-That the Dutch government has no present in- tention of offering to mediate for peace is the announcement contained in government reply to an interim report of the second chamber embody- ing general reflections on the budget. says a Reuter- despatch from the Hague.
 The government declares that it is fully cognizant of the fact that the termination of the war would be ben- eficial to Holland, but asserts this is not sufficient reason for mediation The government says it always IS ready to do the utmost in its power as a neutral state to hasten the end of the war, but realizes that no at tempt is likely to succeed if it is pro- posed only by one or two of the bel ligerents.
 A desire for peace, the government declares. will not be permitted to lead to premature steps which would preJu- dice both the country's position and pacific aims.

AN AFTER-DINNER PILL

Most people eat too much. If you are a hearty eater help your digestion take care of the overload by taking one Pink let, the little sugar-coated laxative gran ules, after big dinner. Pinklets gently stimulate the stomach, prevent conges.. ton and the many distressing results of over-indulgence at the table.
 Pinklets, the new laxative, are greatly superior to old-fashioned medicines which over-stimulate the liver and, when their use is stopped, leave it more torpid than before. Pinklets do not upset the stom- ach or cause gripping.
 Pinklets should be in every household. Do not wait until you need to take them but buy bottle now. If your druggist cannot supply you send 20 cents to the N, Y, for full-size bottle.

 Members of Family.

County Commissioner Joseph Towers lies critically ill at his home on Stan ley street, as the result of a strok. of paralysis which unknown to his large number of friends, he suffered a week ago last Sunday, and for many days he fingered between life and death as a result.
 MT. Towers absence from his usual haunts was noticeable for the past week, but few learned of his precar- ious condition. He had been about the week before last as usual but, While not feeling in the best of health, he disguised his ailments from his friends. On Sunday, November 2, he had the shock. It was seen at the outset that MT. Towers condition was of precarious nature.

EDITOR
BULGARIA.

Bulgaria S war policy has been the subject of
more rumors than concern all the other Balkan
states put together Apparently the shrewdest
diplomats have been unable to forecast with
any degree of confidence which side the Bull
garians would fight on in case they should enter
the conflict.
As an illustration of the war rumorologists at
their best, Gen. Sir Arthur Paget's reception at
Sofia by King Ferdinand started number of
rumors relating to concessions offered to Bull
garia by the Allies. These rumors variously
have it that the British and French have offered
King Ferdinand the position of commander in
chief of the Allied forces advancing on Con-
stantinople, that Bulgarian army should enter
Constantinople and remain in it pending the
settlement of peace, that one of the daughters
of Emperor Nicholas of Russia would marry
Crown Prince Boris OF, Bulgaria, and that the
Russian Car would personally visit Sofa to
take part in the ceremony of consecrating the
new cathedral.
