ST. FRISCO AND MABEL
TRASK WONDERFUL GOERS

Mabel Trask and st. Frisco in
their Grand Circuit duels this year
have trotted the fastest five and
siX-heat races on record, which fact
attests their stamina, while their
records of 2:03A for the stallion
and 2:03% for the mare, made in
the regular course of racing and
not to see how fast they could go,
are evidence of their extreme
speed. Either trotter unquestion-
ably could step a half-mile in less
than minute if asked to go that
distance only. and each probably
is up to quarter in % seconds.

Among the interested spectators at the
big golluf meet have been several of the
displayed a deep interest in the game and
was particularly struck with the apparent
signs of superstition displayed by the
players.
Eddie was forthwith informed that the
average golfer is just as supersitious as
the Average bali player One Of the most
common of the superstitions associated
with the links game is that of putting
when there is a ball already in the cup.
Hundreds of golfers will more think
of doing this than they would of playing
In their paJamas.
Manager Clyde Engle. it learned is
one of the greatest of golf enthusiasts and
winter playing on the Boston courses
Arthur Bonebrake played around with
him the Country club course and
"Boney'' asserts that Engle is some real
golfer. He says the Savage leader has
the form of a professional. and he must
game despite the fact that he has hardly
had a club in his hand this summer.
Yes 1 am a great lover of golf" Engie
said when asked about it. Il have played
great deal. and some day l may enter
the game in a regular way.
Knowing that Engle possesses the aver
asked about his golf It's funny" he
said Il am awfully superstitious about
baseball, but 1 never think of it when
playing golf"
There is no doubt but that Joe AgIer
has been of the most valuable men
on the Topeka W. l.. team this season.
Agler has played many positions since
the season opened, and he has played them
all weIl-tbe best he could--and has given
no indication that he did not have his
heart in his work just as much as he
would have had in faster company where
he really belongs.
Few of the players who will participate
in the closing ceremonies tomorrow were
here at the opening Agler Monroe Good
win and Hall are the only ones who have
been with us constantly. Sanders and
Dashner were here Mt the beginning. but
they have been elsewhere during most of
the summer.

and Connelly's single, and they
stepped to the front in the sixth when
errors by Engle and Allen, along with
a single by Connolly, a walk and a
double steal gave them two counters.
Lathrop again hung up one for his
team in the last of the sixth when he
tripled and was driven home by De
Fate, but Manager Gaspar who was in
the box for the visitors frightened up
and with good support behind him
kept the Engle men from making a
further advance

FRUIT A HEALTHFUL FOOD
Fact IL, Mankind 0oss Not Eat
Enough Of It, Is Opinion
Of Expert.

Food can be conveniently divided
into seven elasses-fruits. nuts, vege-.
tables, grains, legumes. miscelIaneous
and meat. Fruits, the least known,
says al article in Health Culture, are
the most Important. They include
tree products, berries and melons.
Only "A per cent of the food we con-
sumo in this country is fruit. Man
lis anatomically, physically, historic
ally, deductively, additionally and
morally a fruit eater" Yet we not
only eat little of 1t, but are restrained
from it by superstition that 1t causes
"ilments. When ripened fruit is
dropped by the plant It IL a mass Of
living cells that form a society Of in.
Gividusls, each independent of the 9TH
er. When eaten they give life 10 the
consumer In animal foods putretac-
ton begins its work Immediately on
the death Of the animal. There Ia
fermentation In fruits, but no rot
tenness" until the organized ferments
enter through a break In the skin.
The subject is a large one and runs
to technical analysis that is of little
help for everyday use. But, generally
speaking, one can stand by the axiom
that fruit is healthful food, one that
If fresh and clean should be beneficial
and not harmful. Waste products
which cause the peristaltic action of
the digestive tract form an important
part of the diet and one that is usual
ly overlooked. Crude fiber is the best
waste product. Fruits produce an
ideal crude fiber.

tea was at a bachelor apartment-and
he gave me n list of all those present
with their addresses, about twenty-five
persons, suggesting that ! write ard
ask who had a new umbrella in place
Of an old one
II took It with some degree OF hope
which he at once crushed By telling
me that on enc Occaal0n he had lost
q new silk hat at a social function
and the hostess had given him a list
OF sixty-four men who had been among
those present. He wrote 10 the entire
lot and received four replies in the
