Washington and Jefferson will likely

them. Its forward passes, too, are
not yet working in the best form, so
that it seems certain that its efforts
will be confined to line plunges with
occasional runs from kick formations.
Wesleyan, on the other hand,
seems to have a good running attack
as well as some strength for pene-
trating the line, and the game seems
certain to prove most interesting

Metzger Shows Signs Of Fear
When He Orders Secret
Practice.

No football game except Wesleyan's
grabhle with West Virginia Universi-
ty at Fairmont could excite SO much
interest among West Virginia fans as
the Washington and Jefferson-Wes-
leyan struggle scheduled for Wash
ington, Pa, on Saturday afternoon of
this week.
Metzger, of Washington and Jeffer-
son has so much fear of Wesleyan's
prowess that he has ordered secret
practice and the gates TO Washington
and Jefferson's field have been tightly
locked all through this week. This
is an unusual procedure for so early
in the season and indicates all too
well that Washington and Jefferson
fears Wesleyan and that some special
entertainment will be provided for
the West Virginia preachers. Never
before except for the Pitt game has
secret practice been inaugurated at
Washington and Jefferson.
That Wesleyan is strong and that
Wesleyan supporters and West Vir-
ginia football fans in general believe

The real influx of the Mountaineers
however, will be from Wheeling,
Wellsburg and smaller panhandle
towns. Formerly Wesleyan played
Washington and Jefferson or Carlisle
annually in Wheeling. but this year
no big college game is booked for
the West Virginia metropolis and the
Washington and Jefferson-Wesleyan
game offers n fine opportunity for
Wheeling, Bellaire, Martins Ferry
and other Wheeling district people to
see Wesleyan in action as we'll as to

The two teams have played two
games with inferior opponents and,
OF course, have not displayed their

that 1t has the one big chance Of a

 He admitted that 'Wine of Cardui" con- tained no juice of grapes, and explained, according to the deposition, that he in terpreted the word wine to mean an extract. The American Medical associa- tion's journal charged that the name wine was misleading, because the med icine contained no juice of grapes MT. Patten said neither he nor his brother ever had medical education.
 The deposition of Grace Gilbert head of the womens department of the Chat tanooga Medicine company, which was read in court, disclosed that she had Lever studied medicine.
 The deposition said her duties were to direct correspondence to those seeking medical advice, and in it she declared that she got her information from ''The Home Treatment Book" compiled by MT. Wheatley the advertising counsel.
 Miss Gilbert explained that the com- pany had IS form letters which were used in answering correspondence of women inquiries.
 How do you know which form to use ?, she was asked
 'I use my own judgment" was the re- ply read from the deposition.
 The expert testimony stage of the suit was reached today
 Each side will be allowed 20 experts. The first today was Dr. Ralph w. Web ster a chemist. He testified in effect that Wine of Cardui, manufactured and sold by the Pattens, contains no cura- tive solids of medicinal value. It con- tains about 20 per cent alcohol, he said, and asserted the solids would dis solve as readily in water as in alcohol
 The physical effect. he said, of drink ing Wine of Cardui and a proportionate amount of alcohol diluted in water Is the same
