WHY YOU ARE NERVOUS

The nervous system is the alarm system
OF the human body.
In perfect health we hardly realize that
we have network of nerves, but when
health is ebbing, when strength is dcclin,

alarm in headaches, tiredness, dreamful
sleep, irritability and unless corrected,
leads straight to breakdown.
To correct nervousness, SCOTS Emul-

It is q fact, true as the law of gravi-

to further the pursuits of peace but
to furnish locomotion for the armed
chariots of the ancients.
The ultimate developments of the mo-
tor truck has been furthered more by
the progress of the present world war
than by any other one factor of our
existence.
In the wars that are past, the army
mule, the hard-worKeu nOrSeS, were
sufficient to carry food and supplies
to the men engaged.
But in wars of the past what were
called armed hordes" numbered not
more than single divisions on the war
of today.
For the past three years the nations
of the world have been face to face
with the problem of feeding millions of
men, furnishing supplies to millions.
Every problem of war has been null
tiplied in an enormous degree over war
as it has hitherto been known.
Food, ammunition, supplies must be
hauled tremendous distances over
seemingly impossible roads and with
a speed hitherto undreamed of in the
transportation of the army supplies.
The guns that horses once staggered
under have become playthings when
compared with the huge pieces of ar
tillery that must be mobile now to
maintain slight advantages won.

Think of the pictures that come to
you from the battle fields Of Europe.
Everywhere there are motor trucks
playing their all important part. Cut
the pictures of these motor trucks out
of material scenes-paste them over
the pictures of the factory. store,
warehouse, wharf, railroad platform,
highway work, construction work
wherever you will, and these will be
the pictures of industry after the war.
Think this over! 1t bears vitality on
your own welfare, upon your one
chance to grasp the industrial oppor-
tunity which will be yours when the
sound of the bugle has blown for the
last time on the charge and the whis-
ties Of industry resound the call to the
millions of warriors to stack their hab-
iliments of carnage and assume the
aprons of labor.

Naval Reserve
Eleven to Play
Fordham Team

A game has been arranged between
the Naval Reserve team from the Pei
ham Bay Park station and the Fordhann
eleven, TO be played at Fordham Field
on Saturday, November "a.
AS the naval team is composed most
ly Of college players Of ability, good
contest is assured while the 1900 sea-
men and the two bands that will &C
company the visiting team will lend a
martial spirit to the engagement on the
gridiron.
Raymond Delehanty, the Fordham
manager. also announced yesterday that
negotiations were pending for a game
on Thanksgiving Day with a prominent
college eleven. An offer has been re-
ceived TO play away from New York,
but a home contest is as proverbial as
the turkey on Thanksgiving Day, and
unless no other game can be arranged
the Bronxmen will not travel on that
day.
The Maroon players had their first
tough Scrlmmage since the Georgetown
game when they faced the fast Ford
ham Prep eleven yesterday. The young.
sters were ordered on the offensive, and
they furnished the collegians q good
workout.
Kearns, the Props dashing halfback,
eluded the primary defence several
times on q thrust off tackle. Frank
Frisch again was missing, and it is un-
likely that he will play in Saturdays
game with Cornell. Erwig and Chris
tianson did only light work and neither
entered the scrimmage.

Miske Batters
Dillon in Fast
10 Round Bout

Jack Dillon, the famous Hoosier
Besrcat. gave-one Of the greatest ex-
hibitions Of gameness while taking q
fearful beating from Billy Miske of
St Paul, at the Broadway Sporting
Club Of Brooklyn, last night, that has
ever been seen in local ring.
With both eyes nearly closed for the
last three rounds and his face battered
into a bloody mass, Dillon kept Keeling
around the ring, while Miske rained
storm Of blows to his rivals bleeding
face.
Miske had the better Of every round,
jabbing fercely TO the head with his
left and never failing TO follow up
with a right cross 10 the jaw. After
Dillon had taken this punishment un-
finchingly for half q dozen rounds
those at the ringside began TO wonder
how a human could stand il.
But Jack fought a great Tight last
night and stayed the limit through
bulldog courage. In the ninth round,
unable 70 see and staggering away
weakly. he was a pitiful picture wher
Miske appealed to the referee 70 stop
il, but Dillon would have none OF that
and fought back as best he could.
In the tenth Dillon half slipped from
weakness to his knees. AT the bell ne
and Miske shook hands and walked arm
in arm from the ring. ,,
The weights were, hlske l'o7' anu
Dillon l67 pounds.
