Having attended to his ailing play

Yankee headquarters to meet some
visitors from Scotland. Captain Hus-
ton introduced his friends and they
made a great hit. However, two Of
the visitors died during the session
and there was deep mourning on that
account. Captain Huston promised
to dig up a few more of his Scotch
friends by tonight so that another
funeral is promised the faithful.
Then came P-M-P Griffith's after
noon nap. This is something new in
baseball, this afternoon nap. The
Washington magnate has inaugurated
a new style for magnatea-that of
the beauty sleep.
Hereafter, whenever possible P-M-P
Griffith means to take his daily nap.
He is thinking of adding a sleeping
porch to the Washington club house
to which he may retire before each
game. Thus will be he refreshed for
his multifiarious duties of the day.
This nap, too, will serve to preserve
his girlish beauty, which is import

SCHOOL BOARD OF

The six members of the city board
of education duly filed their applica-
tions Monday with the county clerk,
in accordance with the new law, for
the election which will take place on
November 2. There will be no change
in the personnel of the board, since
there were no new applications filed
at a late hour, and there are but the
six applications On file.
The members of the board are all
qualified and nominated and the only
thing remaining is the formality of
their election, since there is no oppo-
sition. The fling of the petitions by
the local members of the board was
done simultaneously. The fact that
fourth-class cities were included in
this new law was not given much at
tention until a recent date, and there
were no applications received. The

Rheumatism Comes
From Tiny Pain Germs

First of all, get it firmly fixed in
your mind that all the liniments
in the world have no effect what
ever on rheumatism.
A very common form of Rheu-
matism is caused by millions of
tiny disease germs which infest the
blood. The one and only sensible
treatment. therefore. is one which
cleanses the blood of these germs,
and routs them entirely out Of the
circulation.
