realized how desperate was their
plight. Out of all this, however,
there came one sustaining thing. He
was through, double-crossed, and in
the very manner in which Kent had
predicted he would be.
Blaze watched him. The man had
dismOunted and was pacing up and
down the dry creek-bed. Every ten
or twelve stops he would turn sud
denly and, shaking his fist at the
giant wall, pour out a string of
curses and threats that burned the
air. He would have killed Acklin on
sight in his present mood. When
ever he recalled that he, the blund-
ering stupid IDIOT, had pulled this
coal out of the fire for the Double A,
he raved like a mailman.
Esteban spurred up to the big fell
low, the manner in which Bodine
had given way, filling him with dis
gust.
Dry up that noise" he called out
THAT Kind Ct talk won't get you

Blaze felt a silent admiration for

caught the tone Of authority in his
voice.
We'll, what are we goin' to do?"
he demanded.

dine" Esteban said hotly. "What my
people do, they'll do without any
help from you. We're not forgetting
you double-crossed stool-pigeon
Acklin has played you for a fool,
but you'd have driven US out if you
could"
A cultural chorus approved his
words.
Have it your own way" the big
fellow roared. I'D lined up with

US all. You 20 ahead, and see where
You get off. You got TWO of his pets

Bodine was playing to the crowd
now. There was a quick movement
toward the Double A men. Blaze

RECIPE TO CLEAR
 A P|MPLY SKIN
Pimples Are Impurities Seeking an Outlet Through Skin Pores

Pimples. sores and boils usually result from toxins. poisons ant im- purities which are generated in the Nbowels and then absorbed into the blood through the very ducts which should absorb only nourishment to sustain the body.
 It is the function of the kidneys to filter impurities from the blood and cast them out in the form of urine but in many instances the bowels create more toxins and inn purities than the kidneys can elim- mate; then the blood uses the skin pores as the next best means of get ting rid of these impurities, which often break out all over the skin in the form of pimples.
 The surest way to clear the skin of these erupdons. says not ed authority, is 10 get from any phar- macy about four ounces of lad Salts and take a tablespoonful in a glass of water each morning before break fast for one week. This will help prevent the formation of toxins in Inc bowels. It also stimulates the kidneys. thus coaXing them to filter the blood of impurities and clearing the skin of pimples.

 The government pays each Rus sian student from five to six hun dred crowns month, and in addi- tion provides lodging in one of the Russian centers.

Sketch of Ruth's Career.
Ruth was born in Baltimore. Md.
February z, 1894, and started his base
ball career as a member of st. Mary's
Industrial School team in 1913. The
following year he went to Baltimore
where he played one season. He be
came member of the Boston Red
Sox of the American League in 1915.
After five seasons with Boston, Ruth
was purchased by the New York club
in 1920. Two years ago Ruth estab
lished a record for home runs for
season, cracking out SO. He broke
into the American League as a pitch
er, but it was soon discovered that
his great hitting mowers would bring
out his best qualities, and he was
shifted to the outfield.
Ruth's work at the plate this season
has thrown fear into most of the
pitchers, and, as a result, the big
slugger has received 156 bases on
balls. He is leading the league in
home runs, having gathered 81, &C
cording to unofficial averages. which
include games of last Thursday. The
big fellow has ripped out 184 hits,
which, besides his homers. include SO
doubles and IL triples. while his bat
ting average is only one point behind
Harry Heilmann of Detroit, who is
leading the league At one time Ruth
was topping the league. Ruth is far
in front in total bases, with 356. and
is leading the league as a run getter,
having registered 134 times.
