GOTHAM FANS LOOK
WITH DOUBT UPON

Neither Giants Nor Yanks Show
Sustained Winning
Qualities.

NEW YORK, July l2.-Ba seba,l
fans OF Gotham are beginning to look
with doubt upon the chances OF the
Giants and Yankees in the pennsnt
races
At the outset of the season both
New York teams we're highly touted
as possible flag winners. but with half
OF the schedule played out and neither
club having shown sustained winning
ability New York's hopes of support.
ing a worlds series entrant next fall
have been greatly weakened.
Each New York team has shown
flashes Of fine form. winning many
games against the strongest clubs in
their respective leagues. But each
has faltered against the weaker teams
and neither has had the con nsistent
pitching necessary to force their way
into the leadership.
INDIANS GOING SMOOTHLY.
In contrast the worlds champion
Cleveland Indians have breezed along

Chicago that the Yanks ran into
the slump that practically put them
out Of the 1920 pennant race.
CAN'T GAIN GROUND.
The Giants, bolstered by the acaui-
sition of Casey Stengel and Johnny
Rawlings and with greater hitting
power than they had In 1920. are still
unable TO gain ground consistently on
Pittsburgh and George Gibson's
team maintains it's lead. The Pirates.
having won two out of three from
Brooklyn. have made a good start on
their present road trip, and with
percentage OF .667 today are three
and one-half games in -he van OF
McGraw's team and travelling So
points above the percentage that won
the pennent for the Dodgers last fall.
The New York teams are not out
of the races as yet. Many things NAV
happen between now and October 1

centage columns, but II they have
been unable to forge their way to the
leaderships of their leagues I'm half

How Better Than Pills?

The question has been asked-In
what way are Chamberlain's Tablets
superior to the ordinary cathartic and
liver pills? Our answer is, they are
easier and more pleasant to take and
their ecect is so gentle that one hard
ly realizes that it is produced by a
n edicine. Then, they not only move
the bowels but improve the appetite
nd strengthen the digestion.-Adver-

TO SAVE cHINcHILLA.

'Tn view of the fact that it is de- sirable to conserve the species of useful wild animals in the republic of Peru, and that the chinchilla is one of the animals whose exter1nina- tion Is threatened" reads a resolu- ton recently passed by the govern ment of Peru, "the hunting of these animals in the territory of the re- public, as well as the sale of skins and articles made from them, is pro- hibited."
 In fact, the provisions of the de- cree of October 8, 1920, referring to the skins of the vicuna apply also in the case of the chinchilla. Dealers who import skins made from this animal shall be obliged to certify as to their origin.

ROBBED THE DEVIL OF FOOD Cynical Caribbean Chief Tells of Ap- propriating Supplies Left for His
 Satanic Majesty.

No part of the West Indies seems to have escaped piratical visitations. The Caribbee islands, inhabited solely by redskins, who knew noth- ing of gold or bad habits, were ire quently called upon. Esquemeling, the chief of pirate historians, tells of the Caribbee customs, notably that of the widowed Caribbee wom- an, who was obligated by custom to carry choice foods to the grave of her husband for 12 months and aft CT that dig up the bones, scrape and polish them and carry them on her back for another year before she could marry again. It was the popu- lar belief, says Esquemeling, that the devil ate the food, "but I my self, not of this opinion, have often times taken away these offerings and eaten them instead of other victuals. To this I was moved be- cause I knew that the fruits used on these occasions were the choicest and ripest of all."-New York Tribune.

One Dollar Saved Represents
 Ten Dollars Earned

The average man does not save to exceed ten per cent of his earnings. He must spend nine dollars in living expenses for every dollar saved. That being the case he can not be too care full about unnecessary expenses. Very often a few cents properly invested, like buying seeds for his garden, will save several dol lars outlay later on, It is the same in buying Chamberlain's Collie and Diarrhoea Remedy. It costs but a few cents. and a bot tie of it in the house often saves a doctors bill of several dollars.

WITHOUT AMBITION OR HOPE
One Wonders What the Solitary In- habitants of Tristan da cunha,
 Have to Live For.

A British cruiser late in 1920 visited a spot which has had only one other caller at her port since July, 1919. This isolated place is Tristan da Cunha, said to be the loneliest spot in the British empire. The island, which is of volcanic origin, towers to a height of 5000 feet above sea-level in the south At lantic. So thoroughly has the never worry creed taken its hold upon the people that the men move in list less fashion, only bestirring them selves enough to keep from starving, and let the women do what work there is to be done. There are only 119 inhabitants on the island living in its 22 stone thatch-roofed houses. Their wood Is that which drifts in to them on the tide, they raise pota- toes as the food staple, they make their moccasins of soft bullock hide, they obtain a few clothes from an occasional ship which calls there, in exchange for geese, fowls, milk, sheep, eggs and cured albatross and penguin skins, and for months in succession they do without bread, tea, coffee and sugar. The people are fast deteriorating in type due to interbreeding-National Geo. graphic Society Bulletin.

BAD BACK TODAY?

Backache is usually kidney ache and makes you dull. nervous and tired. Use Doan's Kidney Pills for weak kidneys-the rem edy recommended by your friends and neighbors. Ask your neigh bor!
 Chas. A. Mulvenon, Gurley 6 Granite Sts., Prescott, Arizona, says: "I was a railroad man for several years and being continu- ally shaken up on the trains put my kidneys out of order. My back was so lame, 1 could hardly go. Bending over was impossible and when 1 tried it. sharp pains would catch me in my back. My kid- neys were badly disordered. They acted unnaturally. 1 certainly felt out of sorts when began us ing Doan's Kidney Pills, but they soon fixed me up in good shape. I always can recommend Doan's, because I know they are all right.

There are a few cases of whoopIng cough on the east side of St. Johns, and it is impossible for us to always ascer- tain where cases are developing, and have houses placarded. So it is the duty of everyone to try and help health authorities by preventing children from collecting together promiscously, and notifying the doctors of any suspicious case, and helping to enforce isolation.
