The gospel of fresh air is no longer
new, but there are many on whom the
preaching of this gospel has little ef-
feet. Their Interpretation of fresh
air is going out of doors for a limit
ed time during the day, but the lett
ing of fresh air into the homes in
quantities and sleeping in rooms with
sufficient fresh air is still Impractical
by the great majority Of those to
whom it would be most valuable.
There is economy in changing the air
of a room often, as warm dry air does
not give the same sense Of warmth
and comfort afforded by cooler
moist air. Heating tends to dry the
air and thus our homes and offices
become overheated before they seem
comfortable.
The best rest for the sick or weary
man or woman is taken in pure fresh
air. If there istno available outdoor
sleeping place, open the windows. If
your room has only one window, open
it equally from top and bottom; if
two windows, lower one all the way
from the top and push up the other
all the way from the bottom. The
bed should be screened from direct
draught; a clothes horse and blanket
make a good screen, without too much
trouble. To insure perfect rest be
perfectly sure that you are warm.
No sleep is restful unless the sleeper

FARGO ATHLETICS PLAY
TWO GAMES AT CAPITAL
Clash With Fast Bismarck Team on
Saturday and Sunday-Bismarek
Loses to Stanton.

Bismarck, N. D., June 14.-Undaunt-
ed by its defeat at Stanton last Sun
day, the Bismarck team has taken on
the Fargo Athletics for two games on
the local diamond, at Sis o'clock
Saturday evening and $3.50 o'clock
Sunday afternoon. The Athletics ar
rive from Fargo Saturday noon.
The Stanton game was the first
decisive test of strength for the sea-
son. The Bismarck boys went into the
contest two men short, and they finish
! ed only one run behind Stanton, which
! has an exceptionally strong lineup.
Errors in the outer garden cost Bis
marck the Stanton game. Christensen
twirled remarkable ball, allowing but
six hits. Speed" Roth, Bismarck S
youthful second -sacker, was the
bright, shining star of the game. Be-
sides handling perfectly every chance
in the field, he connected with the ball
! for four hits, two triples, a double and
a single, in four times up. Bismarck
cornered 13 hits to Stanton's six, and
it was only exceptionally good fielding
that held the capital city bunch down.
Big crowds are promised for both
games with Fargo.

Byron Often in Trouble. f..
Chicago, June 14.-There seems to
be only certain umpires in the Ma
tional league who have most of the
trouble with the players and man
ayers.
Umpire Byron is one of them. II
can be easily understood why he
does. Apparently he has not learned
the art of dealing with the players
in a manner that is gently effective
He takes exception to everything and
shouts to the men in a tone that
makes it only natural for them to
resent. Al Orth is another of the
same type. Quigley is much the same
but he is learning to treat the players
in a fashion that gives him little
trouble. f8
. o'Day Has Real System.
Hank O'Day seldom has any clash
es with players. He has protests the
same as any other member of the
staff, but he takes them for what they
are worth. asr..-.
He has been in the game so long
that he can laugh at a players objec-
lions, and retort in such a way that
the individual has no chance to con-
tinue or to become abusive. Bill KLEIN
does the same now, although years
ago he was like Byron, refusing to
let a player utter word in protest.
Rigler has mastered the art of treat
ing his players, and has learned that
1t is not necessary to be too drastic
to curb the warlike spirit Of the men
and that they do not have to be talk
ed to in sarcastic sneering tone.
Must Uphold Umpires.
President Tener of the National
league is in duty bound to uphold
his umpires. If he did not they
would lose control of the game, but
at the same time he does not object
to a player Directing to a verdict
when he thinks he was safe, or that
the ball was not over the plate. Tener
does put his foot down on the player
who insists upon using obscene langu-
age, and who goes through movements
that incite the fans to ride" the
umpires and make it uncomfortable for
them when they are impartial in their
decisions

No one has been able to explain 1t
thus far, but it seems that a great
season for comebacks is being had.
Sport fans have reached the point
where they only yawn to see in their
favorite paper that the great come
back of this veteran or that has been
the feature of the season.
Just a few of those who have been
celebrated as the comeback wonders
of the day are Larry Doyle, Fred
Merkle, Ivan Olson, Rollie Zeider,
Guy Morton, Eddie Cicotte, not to
mention Tub Spencer and Harry
Wolter and quite a few others.
Some of these have only gone in
for the comeback thing this season,
while others have been coming back
more than anything else for some
while. Ball players themselves be-
gin to realize that "comebacks" are
being a bit overdone, but it's usually
that way and there are always some
to spoil a good thing. Whoever first
thought ZIP the comeback idea got a
big hand and now any numbe" of
players arc tr"ing to cop his stuff.
A big League veteran can be sure
Of getting the comeback cheers If he
will manage to stage squirt and
play first rate ball for while. Then

out Of the game with a strained liga-
ment and Danforth, Williams and Wolf
gang have been held in reserve or have
been used only occasionally to relieve
the regulars when they were being too
roughly handled.
Joe Benz joined the White Sox in the
spring of 1911 after starring for Des
Moines, and so he is now starting his
seventh season with the Sox. Death
Valley Jim Scott has been with the
team since early in 1909, so he is now in
his ninth season. This is Russell's
fifth season with the White Sox, as he
joined them in 1913. 81
Last season Jim Scott came into a
little disfavor with his employers by
his misbehavior and was fined and sus-
pended, but this year he has been act
ing up not bit and has been a COM
fort and joy to Clarence Rowland.

tng their own allies into Hohenzol-
lern Mittel Europa.
Mr.. Walling points out that the
made in Germany" Socialist creed al
ready has been adopted by the Russian
Socialists. In Denmark, which only
half a century ago felt the mailed fist
of Prussia, the pro-German Socialist,
Staining, is a member of the ministry
and is backed by party controlling
a third of the votes of the nation. In
Holland the pro-German Socialists con-
troll the party and cast third of the
votes, Mr.. Walling says. The Swiss
Socialists are overwhelmingly pro-
German and the plank adopted by the
American Socialists in their st. Louis
convention contains nothing to offend
the Germans. The pro-German infiu-
ence also is strong in Argentina, and
the Brazilian Federation of Labor, very
OPPORTUNITY for the German govern
ment, is threatening general strike.
The Italian Socialists have expelled
all members who advocated the abso-
lutte defeat of the Hohenzollerns and
even in France nearly half the Social
lists are willing to accept the German
mo annexation, no indemnity" peace
plaza majority of the Paris Social
lists, in fact, are said to favor that plan
And so,apparently, Potsdam has be-
come the headquarters for Socialism

The Fresh Air Habit

is warm and more people object to
fresh air because it is cold than for
any other reason. The bed should be
made with warm blankets under you,
as well as over you. Some beds are
cold simply because there are not
sufficient heat retaining properties in
the thin mattress. The night clothes
should be of warm material; outing
flannel is good for this purpose as
well as for sheets. Avoid weight in
bedding, but have the outside cover
of some thickly woven material that
will keep out the wind. Put a sleep
ing cap or hood on your head. You
will then have most refreshing sleep.
There are many people of such low
cred vitality that they will need ar
tificial heat in order to secure COM
fort in fresh air sleeping. Use any
means at hand from the luxurious
electric pad to the jug of hot water
and heated fiat iron. These need not
come in contact with the body, but
placed in the bed they will radiate
the heat that is necessary to secure
comfort for the sleeper.
For the healthy there is no such
tonic as fresh air sleeping.
For the sick there is no greater re-
storative than fresh air sleeping.
Get the fresh air habit by day and
night.
Breathe deep and sleep warm.

RACING IN GERMANY.

Racing is still alive in Germany
in spite of the war. The Grand
Prix was run at Hamburg the
other day and the attendance was
large. The German government
has maintained racing for the
purpose of encouraging the breed
ing industry, which has provided
many remounts for the kaiser's
army. The British government
has also decided to permit racing
in England for the same reason.
In France the sport is conducted
on a comparatively small scale,
but in Ireland the turf has be-
come a more important institu-
ton than in former years. Rae
ing in this country, except in
Kentucky and Maryland, is strug-
Cling for existence. The Jockey
club is keeping up the fight for
the thoroughbred in spite OF the
fact that all of the New York
tracks probably will lose money
this year.

with the Sox for more than several
seasons and have worked hard all that

Rowland believes that pitchers keep
