one way to cure deafness, and
that is by constitutional remedies
Deafness is caused by an in

lining of the Eustachian Tube.
When this tube is inhamed you
have a rumbling sound or imper-

tirely closed, Deafness is the re.
suit, and unless the Inflammation

restored to it's normal condition,

The Pythagorians Of Ancient Greece
ate simple food, practiced temperance
and purity. As a badge they used a

as a symbol of health. A red five point
ed star appears on each package of

its ancient mission as a symbol OF
health. If you are troubled with indi-
gestion, b%iliousness or constipation, get

ANNIVERSARIES
OF RING BATTLES

1807-Fletcher Reid, one of the
most celebrated of the early patrons
of boxing, and himself gentleman
boxer of great ability, died at Shep-
perton,z Surrey. Eng. Reid was a.
native of Dundee, Scotland, and q
man of wealth and good family but
devoted to athletics and gymnastics of
all kinds, especially boxing. He was
the friend and 'financier of many of
the greatest pugi1ist of his day, and
was the patron of Jem. BeIcher, the
youngest champion in ring history
His end came suddenly, for he had
spent a jovial night with some friends,
and retired early in the morning his
valet finding him dead in bed a few
hours Later. Reid was representative
of the type of hard-fighting, hard
drinking, brave but rather dissoIute
sportsmen of the England of the
early nineteenth century and it's pre-
decessor. Much may be said against
them, but they were of the breed that
made Great Britain great and power
full. Reid fought many a hard and
bloody bout with his gentleman
friends, and g1oried in the marks of
combat on his face and body. He
was of a type of man that has almost
vanished from the earth, but which
will long be remembered

Anti-Air Graft shel1r.

Special shells have to be used IN
anti-air craft guns, for the ordinary
shell fired into the air cannot be seen
in its fight, and the gunner would
have no idea whether he went near
his target or not. So tracer" shells
are used in antd-air craft guns.
This shell leaves a trail of smoke By
day and fire by night, SO that its fight
can clearly be seen, and the gunner is
able to observe how far OF his target
he is.
The tracer has in it's base an In
fammable composition which is fired
as the shell leaves the gun. The actual
base of the shell has in it a number

The Greek Lanauaas.

In ancient times, before the con
quest of Alexander the Great, there
were many differences In the dialects
spoken in different parts OF Greece.
About $50 B. G. a common dialect
sometimes called Hellenistic Greek,
arose. This is the Greek OF the New
Testament. By 800 A. D. the differ
ences between the spoken and written
language had become so great that the
literary language was supplanted by
the spoken. From this time the Ian
guage has been further changed IL
grammar, infection and by the intro
duction OF loan words from other Ian
guages, notably from the Italian and
Turkish. Since the Greek kingdom
was established in 1880 there has been
a movement toward the ancient idiom.
This has resulted again in a gap be
tween spoken and written Greek. The
new movement has made such prog
ress. however, that it is not too much
to say that modern newspaper would.

Camel lost Paying
Job AS Manager When
Peace Was Declared

John Camel, who last season man
aged the Brooklyn Federal League
Club, returned to town yesterday after
a three months automobile trip across
the Continent and through the
Hawaiian Islands. Camel knew moth
ing about the peace agreement be-
tween the big leagues until he arrived
at San Francisco ten days ago. He
has a contract to manage the Brooklyn
Club, which has two years to run.
Camel was not much worried about
baseball Saturday. He talked about
his trip, and then had a long confer
ence with James A. Gilmore, the
President of the defunct5 league. 1t is
stated that Camel has an iron-bound
contract with the Brookfeds. and even
if he is not able to find a new man
agerial position he is confident that
his contract will hold good.
Camel was an unusually successful
manager of the Rochester Club of the
international League and returned
several pennant winners. It is likely
that he will return to the International
League.
