Mental Preparedness.

Children trained from the very
start to self-expression enter school
with invaluable mental preparedness
for the work to be done there. They
have a poise that keeps them from
being diff1dent in class. They are not
afraid to ask questions" declares a
prominent educator. "They know how
to tell what is in their mind. In asso-
ctating with other children they get
more joy from it because they know
how to make themselves understood.
Older people find them more charm
ing and interesting.
Effective training toward self-ex-
preston in the young child means that
characteristic of life, and there is no
training more effective than telling him
stories and teaching him how to tell
them.
Asking about a child's doings will
encourage him to tell you about them.
"For instance, when your little boy
comes home from walk get him to
tell you all that he has seen while
out When he comes in from play
get him to tell you all about the fun
be has been having!A
always make him feel your vital
interest in his thoughts and actions"

AMERICA is PUT ON MARKET
Ancient Yacht, Winner Of Royal
Squadron Cup, Is For Sale-Is
in Good Condition.

America, which won the Royal
Yacht Squadron cup 66 years ago, Aug
ust %, 1851, is offered for sale by
her present owners, Paul Butler and
Mrs. Blanche Butler Ames.
She is now laid up at a wharf in
Boston, and is in flrst-class condition.
That she will not go to the junk heap
is practically certain, for before the
war several yachtsmen tried to induce
the Buffers to sell without success, and
members Of the New York Yacht club
have been anxious to have her.
Furthermore, an examination Of her
hull showed her to be In first-class
condition, and although she has been
outbuilt by modern designers, she is
still able to sail, and sail at a good
rate of speed, if there is ample wind
to drive. She never was a good drift
er, but, given gig WHOLESALE breeze,
she will show her heels to many much
younger.

GERMANS BRIBED THE UMPIRE
Carl Emil Junck Tells How Teutons
Are Tricky In Other Ways
Than in War.

Carl Emil Junck, dye importer Of
Chicago, was talking about Germany.
"The German spirit today is tricky,
shifty and false" he said. "The. Ger

Their war, with its violation of every
war law and every international agree

Don't Neglect Kidneys
Swamp Root, DR.. Kilmer's Prescrip-

It is now conceded by physicians that
the kidneys should have more attention
as they control the other organs to re-
markable. degree and do a tremendous
amount of work in removing the poisoDc
and waste matter from the system By
fltering the blood.
The kidneys should receive some an
sistance when needed. We take less ex-
ercise, drink less water and often eat
more rich, heavy food, thereby forcing
the kidneys to do more work than nature
intended. Evidence of kidney trouble,
such as lame back, annoying bladder
troubles, smarting or burning, brick
dust or sediment, sallow complexion.

heart action, warns you that your kid

more serious trouble.
An ideal herbal compound that has had
most remarkable success as a kidney and

Root. There is nothing else like it. IL

FRED ANDERSON'S RISE
Only Ex-Fed HurIer to Share in
Worlds Series Coin.
Was ushered Into Citizenship Twenty
Five Years Ago at StatesviIIe, N.
C.-VaLuabIe Player to Call
On in Pinch.

Fred Anderson, who came TO the
Giants from the Buffalo Feds, is the
only ex-Federal league pitcher who
shared in the cutting of the worlds
series melon this fall.
Incidentally, Anderson's rise to ma
jor league class has been a rapid one,
for prior to joining the Giants, in 1916,
he had only glimpse of big league
company, and he probably has the
Federal league to thank for the fact
that he came into notice as a pitcher
who possessed big league class.
Like Rube Benton, one of his pitch
ing mates, Anderson is native OF
North Carolina. He was ushered into
citizenship at Statesville, N. c., some
twenty-five odd years ago and, like
Benton, he started pitching indepen-
dent ball before he was eighteen years
old.
Several years ago the Boston Ameri-
cans got wind that a young hurler
named Anderson was going great guns
in professional ranks somewhere be-
tOW Tic n1dSOu-OlAOh i1hC ttAA& =
scout was sent South to- give him the
up and down. AS a result Anderson
got tryout with Boston, but was turn
ed over to minor league club In New
England for more seasoning.
About that time the Buffalo Feds
were securing the minors for pitching
material, and as Anderson was dissat-
isfied they had no trouble getting his
name to contract. Then, when the
Feds busted up, McGraw picked him
from among host of Federal league
pitchers and he has succeeded in max
ing good.
Anderson is a highlander, and al
though not the most sensational OF
McGraw's pitchers, is hard worker.

BALL EXPECTS EVEN BREAK |
Loss of st. Louis Browns Believed to
Equal Profit Made Year Ago
New Players Bought.

The st. Louis Americans, during the
season Of 1915, made profit of about
$4,000. The loss of the club during
the current season is expected to equal
that figure, making an "even break"
on the two years. Phil Ball, chief own
er Of the club, whose ambition it has
been to give St. Louis a winning team.
has spent about 100000 in baseball
since he first invested In the st. Louis
Federals. This sum Of course includes
his losses. He says he will stay in the
game, however, and already he has
spent $4,000 for new players for next
year. Among the new players whom
the st. Louis club has obtained are
Kenneth, Williams, Pacific coast star;
Earl Smith, star hitter of the Western
league, and Grover Lowdermilk, one
of the best pitchers in the American
association.
