Notice where Fielder Jones is
roosting today?
Looks like some of those Federal
league pitchers might have possessed
something besides a fat contract and
a hope.
Dave Danforth, young southpaw,
should turn in several victories for
the White SOx in the present season.
He won yesterday, but mainly
through the heroic batting efforts on
the part Of his mates, assisted by
some punk fielding by the Tiger out
posts.
Notwithstanding the ten hits the
Jennings people peeled from the
newcomer, he exhibited some real
goods, the outstanding feature being
a large bunch of nerve in the face Of

Practice fielding the hardest kind
of bunts and give a lot of time to
mastering throws from all angles.
Rehearse the underhand throw to
first as well as to second. Often it
will aid you in retiring a fast runner,
one who would beat your throw if
you took time to come up erect be-
fore getting the ball away.

all kinds of hectoring. Jennings,
Cobb and Bush, three of the best
goat betters in the business, went
after Danforth from the first pitch.
They continually called attention
Of the umpires to his method of de-
livering the ball, especially when men
were on base. They declared he did
not take a step in the direction of
first base before throwing to that
station. DanfOrth had the same trOu-
BILE in the American assn, but the
umpires decided he was right. He
is due for some more argument in
the big tent until he has met every
team and all the Umpires have seen
him in action.
The Detroit people didn't honestly
believe there was anything wrong
with the DanfOrth method. They
were merely trying to badger a
young man making his debut, which
is legitimate baseball They finally
did harass Umpire Hildebrand into
calling baIk, but previously Dan
forth had held the enemy close to
the bags, and once picked Bush off
first.
Danforth's style is a wonderful
help to a catcher and keeps opposing
players from taking any liberties on
the sacks. He has one of the most
deceptive deliveries seen for some
time, being much like Ed Walsh in
anchOTing baserunners to the bags.
For, eight innings he repuIsed
every effort of the Tigers to rattle

COULDN'T CUT
SLICE OF BREAD
Terrible State Of Weakness Il
pericnced By Ipswich Lady.
Cardui Made Her Strong.

Ipswich, S. D.-Mrs. Henry Royle,
Of this place, says: II suffered for
nearly 10 years, with womanly trou-
BILE. Nothing seemed to help me until
l took Cardui, the woman's tonic. 1t
made me we'll and strong. Before l
commenced to take Cardui, l could not
stand on my feet.
l was so weak, / could not cut a
slice of bread. Now, l can stand all
day, and can do most of my work. l
think Cardui is the best medicine in
the world. l have been feeling fine
ever since began to take it. Cardui
was recommended to me by friend,
and will gladly tell my friends Of it. !"
If Cardui will relieve and cure such
a stubborn and long-standing trouble
as that of Mrs. Royle, then it is only
reasonable to believe it will quickly
and surely help you, too.
Cardui is the ideal general tonic for
women. 1t has been found to improve
the appetite and build up the entire
womanly constitution. You can al
ways depend on Cardui, for it has
helped more than a million weak
women in the past so years, who suf-
fered from troubles so common to
their sex. Try Card-u-i.

When boy gets notions in
his head and leaves the old home
place, it's not a sign he'll wind
up bad or end in much disgrace.
He may pull through in fair
good shape-just how, Pm not
explaining. He may be saved
by his mothers prayers-by his
early boyhood training. But the
chances are he'll strike hard
luck, though he may win out OF
he's gritty-but it hardly pays,
though, in the end, to trade a
farm for a city. There's a mighty
risk on the city jobs-the high
toned jobs included-and many
a lad has paid the price by the
city glares deluded. The only
game it is safe to buck is the
game that you know by heart,
and the safest place for a c0un-
try boy is the place where he got
his start. He can't afford to
squander his youth a-chasing a
phantom hope, then find that at
81 he's reached the end of his
rope. And the boy who sticks to
the country can have greenbacks
in his jeans, when the boy who
goes to the city may be hungry
for pork and beans.

Denial was made at the Merchants
National Bank yesterday that a ma
jority of the board of directors was IN

cate, headed by George c. Warner, TO
obtain control of the capital stock. i,
was also denied that one of the three

The Effect Intended.

The effect of the Order in Council
has been to make Prince Rupert the
headquarters for fishery activities IN
the North Pacific Ocean. In single
season the aggregate catch landed there
increased from a very small amount 10
millions of pounds. In July of this
year it was no less than 100000
pounds. While shipments to the Ameri-
can market have been important, they
are not the only factor contributing 10
Prince Rupert's newly-found prosper
ity. A cold storage fast freight SER
vice. inaugurated under a government
guarantee, has served TO develop mar
kets in Eastern Canada for Pacific
Coast halibut and salmon. Every pas
senger train for the East now includes
four or five refrigerator cars OF fresh
halibut for the markets of the Do
mnion and the United States.

The surplus reserve of the New
York banks, meaning the amount or
gold and other reserve money that
is held in excess of legal require
ments and represents the utilized
lending power Of the banks, has
fallen in three weeks from 1871
millions to a little less than 20 mill
ions. But there are no misgivings
as to the supply of credit. What
with gold imports of $40,0OO,OOO in
one week and the vast pOtentialities
of the Federal Reserve Bank system
to fall back upon, credit in this coun-
try. or the price Of it, seems the
very last thing for any one to worry
about. And yet, some day we shall
have to worry about it all the more.
Credit almost certainly is now
cheaper than it ought to be, and as
cheap as it will be for a long time
to come.

A great many people who have
prospered Enthusiastically now enter
tain a higher opinion of their own
sagacity and q lower opinion of des-
tiny than either one or the other de-
serves. Most people couldn't help It,
This is something that happened to
them. Our prosperity has repre-
sented rather the impact Of the
world upon us than the impact of our
force upon the world. We have be-
come internationally great all at once
not by growth, but by accident. It's
well to be reminded of this. Pros
perity is hard for the ego to stand
much harder than adversely. There
has been very little judgment any
where in what has taken place. 1t
was inevitable. 1t came about. We
did only the next thing at hand, as
it had to be done, and because 1t had
to be done, without even trying to
think very clearly Of the conse-
quences, and 10! marvellous things
happened and the delusion is that we
caused them to happen, and were
miracle workers. Many a man now
thinks that he always believed Steel
common was worth par who less
than two years ago was in a panic
over the economic helplessness of
this country; many banker to-day
believes he foresaw these conse-
uuences who less than two years ago
was for repudiating our obligation
to pay a foreign trade balance in
gold that couldn't be settled in goods;
and many a company manager is
forgetting to be efficient because he
looks at the income account and at
the balance sheet and at the new
property that has appeared around
him. and thinks that all of this testi-
fes to his surprising efficiency,
whereas it was destiny only, which
was sought to be avoided by none so
much as by some who have profted
by it incredibly.

catches over Canadian lines if they
wish to enjoy concessions in Canadian
ports. but those ports offer by far the
best shipping facilities. Prince Rupert
is about 600 miles nearer to the great
