tUnitsd Press 0taH Correspondsnt.)
NEW YORK. July 19--One of the
most surprising things in big league
baseball. aside from the astonishing
form showed by the Cincinnati Reds is
the truly remarkable way the Cardinals
have been behaving since a change of
ownership gave Miller Higgins a real
chance to exercise his true ability.
Ball players have come and gone in
st. Louis since Mrs. Britton stepped out
of the way. Higgins has been quick to
size up the good ones and separate them
from the bad ones. He has displayed
some of the finest looking young ball
players the big leagues have glimpsed
for several seasons-and he's still going
strong.
Higgins latest purchase was young
fellow named Goodwin, a right-hand
pitcher from the Milwaukee American
association club. Sufficient recommends
ton is tipped into the big circle through
the announcement that Branch Hickey
first saw him work. and decided he was
TO be purchased regardless OF the price
to be paid. In view of the fact that
George Sizler and Ernie Koob, besides
several others. received their first strong
recommendations from the new presi-
dent of the Cardinals, it is safe to say
that Goodwins advance notices will not
fall down.
Higgins always has been just as good
g. manager as he Is proving today. The
reason he never has proved 1T with any
more vim in reaching high points in the
National league standings couldn't be
stronger stated in view of the reversal
showed when the Cardinals were sold
His David Harum operations among
clubs of the league. in which he fished
cut player after player and made them
stars after other clubs declared them no
good have proved his worth at sizing
UP players.
1t was Higgins who located Rogers
Hornsby summing himself in Texas and
gave him a regular job Also. il was
Hugs. who picked up a youth named
Watson one day. gave him a big league
job. and lives to see his efforts rewarded
by Watson's remarkable success. This
year he has trotted out the leagues
leading batsman-Walter Cruise, and
has uncovered a new pitcher in Horts-
man who looks mighty sweet Higgins

him to hit. He is further away from

II IS said that the most successful
boxers watch their opponents feet
rather than his eyes or his hands. 'Tis
explained that by so doing the boxer
can anticipate every move his opponent
Is going TO make. In other words, his
opponent "telegraphs" his moves by the
actions OF his feet.
And now comes Clark Griffith. willy
manager OF the Washington Senators
and in his day one of the shrewdest

but read Griffith's explanation:
TT takes more than speed and curves

1T takes more than speed. curves and

Look over the records OF any Of the
pitchers who lasted any length OF time
in the majors and find the answer
'Afathewson pitched winning ball for
several years after he felt himself SO

chances are he will pop up a little fly

about to hit into left field. AS the

Young Men Should
Be Physically Fit to
Compete in Athletics

DIR. Robert E. Coughlin of Brooklyn
has made a compilation of fatalities in
athletic sports and the mortality of ath-
letes for ten years; ending with 1916
The lesson to be learned from the
study OF the detailed figures liz that
those competing should be physically
fit before engaging in athletic contests
Here is DR.. Coughlin's article, which
appears in the New York Medical Jour
nal.
Mine hundred and forty-three lives
were sacrificed on the fields of athletic
sport for a period of ten years ending
with but not including the year 1916
Baseball heads the list with 2s4 fatal
tiles: football is second with 2i5; auto
racing third with i2S; boxing fourth
with 105. Seventy-seven cyclers and
81 jockeys lost their lives; Is wrestlers
persisted on the mat; IA persons lost
their lives playing golf; nine were killed
at bowling, and one died while playing
lawn tennis.
NO brief is necessary in a considera-
tion of this subject as figures very
often speak for themselves. Accidents
will always happen, but Providence is
always on the side of the physically Mt
This should be our watchword in our
present crisis more than ever before
The survival of the nttest comes TO the
fore again with added suggestiveness

BETTER THAN CALOMEL
Thousands Have Discovered DR..
Edwards Olive Tablets are
a Harmless Substitute

DIR. Edwards Olive Tablets-the SUBJ
stitute for calomel-are a mild but sure
laxative, and their effect on the liver is
almost instantaneous. They are the re-
suit of DR.. Edwards determination not
to treat liver and bowel complaints with
calomel. His efforts to Danish it brought
out these little olive-colored tablets.
These pleasant little tablets do the
good that calomel does, but have no bad
after effects. They don't injure the
teeth like strong liquids or calomel.
They take hold of the trouble and
quickly correct it. Why cure the liver
at the expense of the teeth? Calomel
sometimes plays havoc with the gums.
So do strong liquids. Tt is best not to
take calomel, but to let DR.. Edwards
Olive Tablets take its place.
Most headaches, "dullness" and that
lazy feeling come from constipation and
a disordered liver. Take DR.. Edwards
Olive Tablets when you feel 'loggy' and
'heavy." Note how they "clear" clouded
brain and how they "perk. up" the spir-

Hanover Man Arrested
For Alleged Threat
Against the President

Baltimore. March Z. - The arrest
of Amos II. Paulus, 20 years old. of
Hanover, Pa, at the Union station,
after he is alleged to have made a
statement to the effect that he was on
his way to kill President wilson, is
the first in the country under the bill
recently passed in Congress for the
protection of the President.
According to Paulus' statements, he
is a member of a secret society at
Hanover. the members of which, he
said drew lots to dr termine who would
so to Washington yesterday to kill the
President. He said he drew the ticket
which commanded him to do the
job"
When Paulus reached here his ac-
tions attracted the attention of the de-
tectives and they followed him and
saw him get a ticket for Washington.
Detective Wright engaged him in con-
Nersation and Paulus, he says, confided
to him that he was on his way to kill
the President" and wanted an active
young man to assist him. Paulus said
to-day that he was drunk when he
made the remarks.

Potato Famine Keenly
Felt in French Capitol

Paris. March Z. - The potato, like
sugar, butter and other edibles, is be-
coming increasingly rare here. At Le-
Shalle's great central market yester-
day no old potatoes We're to be had.
New potatoes from Algeria, found at
some groceries, brought 15 cents q
pound.
Senator Edouard Herriot, Minister
of National Subsistence and Labor,
succeeded recently in unearthing a
large quantity of butter in the pro-
Ninces and sent it to Paris when the
supply failed. He is taking energetic
measures likewise to remedy the
shortage of potatoes.
