cial Midnite Preview Saturday at
1880 D. m, is one Of the most
monumental and delightful liars Of
all time.
Don Carlos blurts whatever come
TO his fertile imagination as the
solemn truth and takes his oath on
1t. He swears undying devotion 70
every pretty senorita he meets. He
adds links TO his imposing array OF
assumed names. He refers to non
existent ranches as his own-re-
markable featS he has accomplished
and escapes he has made-with a
glib disregard for skeptical audien-
ceS.
Don Carlos makes lying q fine
art, a first class amusement, a game
Of wits. His story Of the Mexican
jumping bean that was his pal and
saved his life, takes rank with Mark
Twain's jumping frog story or David
Harum's horse-trading lies or the
yarns OF old Bill Jones, hero Of
"Lichtnin'."
When finally put TO the test-as

most astonishing ways. fitting from

Magellan
Was He First to Sail Around the World9

hot argument raging among historians about Magellan
was he he not the first sail around the world?
1t is complicated question, complication being that
Magellan made the trip in two installments
Magellan first sailed east from Europe to point in the
Pacific Ocean, somewhere this side of the Philippines Then
he returned to Europe and sailed around Cape Horn
landing in the Philippines where he was killed.
Thus ne grdled the globe That is admitted But it
appears that another who with him may be entitled
to the first honors
The other Filipino slave named Enrique, who
also made the trips and In fact he aboard
Mageans flagship when Magellan reached the Philip
pines.
The question thus resolves itself into this: Which
'front.' Magellan Enrique at the instant the flagship crossed
the meridian of longitude that marked the crcumnavgon
difficult point to settle Enrique slave probably
quartered in the forecasle and Magellan the admiral
doubtedy lived in the stern cabin Thus Enrique might have
beat Magellan the line by the length of the ship
But, the other hand, maybe Magellan standing
the bows at that instant looking for land while Enrique
making up his boss bunk setting the cabin table
reminds you of the old debate which first the
chicken the egg But it is something argue about

Diet is often an important
factor in nervous disorders,
especially those which have no
organic basis and are purely
functional.
Indeed, there are undoubtedly
nervous disorders which have
been aggravated If not entirely
caused by errors In diet or from
faulty stomach or intestinal di-
.gestion.
A milk diet is always a safe
thing to try. although many
persons, especially nervous ones,
will complain at the very start
that milk does not agree with
them.
AS a matter Of fact. the per-
son who is actually affected in
q deleterious way by the pro-
.tein in milk Is rare. For milk
is the most easily borne Of all
foods. And is it not true that
all of us were brought UP on
milk?
However. care must be exer-
cised that the patient on milk
diet takes it regularly and in
sufficient quantities. Six
ounces every two hours sufficeS.
Starting. say about 8 o'clock in
the morning, the last glass Of
milk is taken at 10 at night.
II the taste becomes insipid
after q while, then q little lime
water, or carbonated water, or
some flavoring extract, like va
nilla, may be added with profit.
Since milk is not a solid, q
feeling Of emptiness is expert
enced the first day, perhaps
even weakness. This is because
the milk does not possess the

ties Of solid foods. II weakness
Il pronounced, 1t may be neces-
sary for a patient to rest dur

Many a second-rate cook has
made her tired husbands din
ner palatable by serving it with
plenty of applesauce, garnish-
ing it with smiles and season
ing it with cheers and kisses.
Solicitude is what makes a
woman watch her husband to
see that he is being good: sus-

him to see If he is being bad.
A man stops confessing his
troubles to his wife as soon as
she begins greeting them with
uplifted eyebrows and that

to fight for the baseball champion

It was somewhat of q bitter pill

pions, who q month ago looked like
certain repeaters with their four
game lead, but they staggered into
Comiskey park intent on keeping
faith with the posted odds by whip
ping their southside neighbors quickly
and decisively.
The series, to be played on success
sive days until one club wins four
games, created the usual amount OF
interest In Chicago, and drew a crowd
larger and noiSier than that in at
tendance at the world series between
the Athletics and Cardinals. A total
gate of $4,000 was expected for each
game.
Manager Rogers Hornsby refused To
nominate his pitching selection in
advance of today's initial game but
either his cannon ball ace, Pat Ma
lone. or Bud Teachout, his southpaw
rookie, vas expected to take the
mound. Manager DOME Bush was
expected to start with his knuckle ball
expert, Ted Lyons. In an attempt to
get a start on the Cubs although
some expected Pat Caraway, his bean
pole right handler. The Cubs ranked
Z to 5 favoriteS.
