What do you think Of Mr..
Shloss' opinion, Mr.. and Mrs. Base
ball Fan?
Do you think his selection is a
pretty healthy one?
True, he has had to give two or
three of them different positions
than they usually play, in order to
get them on his All-American
team. but that is perfectly all right
and within the specifications of the
contest.
For instance, Hornsby. regularly
a second baseman, is placed in the
left garden, and Frisch, regularly
second baseman, is put at third.
Every contestant is permitted to
place where he wishes his players
in order to make an effective team
from a fielding and batting stand
point, batting, it being understood
in this instance, also meaning base
running.
Last year when Ruth picked his
team, he shifted some of the boys
into different holes than they
usually fill. He put himself in the
right field, although he played both
the right and left gardens, depend
ing on what town he was playing
and the position Of the sun. Ruth
never plays the sun field, as it
would be bound to have a serious
effect on his batting eye, besides
being naturally a difficult post to
fill from a fielding standpoint
Skillet" will say for Mr.. Schloss
that he has very formidable array
of talent in the above ten players.
AS Shloss points out in his lengthy
explanation, the team is for the
most part fast, strong hitters and
with rare combination of youth
and experience. Can you pick
better one?

AS the contest rules under
which Babe Ruth is cooperating
with The Washington Times spe-
officially declare that his team
will be nominated strictly on the
merits of the players during the
1923 season, it is only fair and
just to eliminate the honorable
and estimable MIR. George Sisler.
of St. Louis, U. S. A.
AS a guide to the fans and as
warning to Mr.. Leon w. ShloSs,
SIG Twelfth street, Skillet" is 60
ing to bring out the above point on
Sisler by revealing the selections
of Shloss, who is not out of the
running because he selects Sisler,
because he can send in as many
different teams as he wishes, but
they should come separately, not
grouped as first, second or third
choice. He was thoughtful enough,
however. to- mention that Pipp, or
the Yankees, is his choice for the
initial bag in case Sisler is not
eligible Shloss will undoubtedly
try again.
Young Shloss deposeth and sayeth
that the following ten players, In
GLIDING two twirlers, which Is pro-
per and within the terms of the
world series trip contest, in his esti-
nation would make the most effec-
tive mythical baseball combination
of the present-day crop:

Sisler, Browns, first base.
Traynor. Pirates. ShortstOp.
Collins, White SOx, second base.
Frisch, Giants. third case.
Hornsby, Cards, left field.
Speaker, Indians, center field.
Heilmann, Tigers, right field.
Perkins, Athletics, catcher.
Luque, Reds, pitcher.
PennOck, Yanlxs, pitcher.
The Washington times. [volume] (Washington [D.C.]) 1902-1939, 1923-08-06

1t seems that Sisler is practically
the unanimous choice of Washing
tonians for the first base honor,
provided he is eligible to be selected
in view of his continued illness
and consequent absence from the
game this season.

 meat.

When you wake up with backache and dull misery in the kidney region 1t may mean you have been eating too much meat. says a well-kno sn authority. An excess of meat may form uric acid. which cverworks the Kidneys in their effort to filter it from the blood and they become sort of raralyzed and loggy. When your Kidneys get sluggish and clog you must relieve them, like you re- lieve your bowels, removing all the body's urinous waste. else you have backache, sick headache, dizzy spells, your stomach sours. tongue is coated, and when the weather is bad you have rheumatic twinges. The urine is cloudy, full of sediment, channels often get sore, water scalds and you are obliged to seek relief two or three times during the night.
 Either consult a good. reliable physician at once or get from your pharmacist about four ounces of Jad Salts: take tablespoonful in a glass Of water before breakfast for a few days and your kidneys may then act fine. This famous salts is made frofr the acid of grapes and lemon juice. combined with lithia. and has been used for generations to clean and stimulate sluggish kidneys. also 10 neutralize acids in the urine so it no longer irritates. thus often ending bladder weakness.
