R ot REGSESRERE e e By HAL SHERIDAN. Harassed by Federal League raids and competition and also the Euro- pean war, the success of the Interna- tional League, making its debut to- day, will be closely watched by the moneyed interests of baseball as well as the fans. ‘The International presents a pe- culiar situation. It is the only O.; G. League which has peculiarly suf- fered from the war, because of its Canadian membership. The war caused Canadians to lose interest in baseball. The season there last year was a financial failure. Transfer of the Baltimore franchise to Richmond, Va., forced by the Feds popularity in Oystertown, which run out Manager Jack Dunn’s team—and with Dunn himself a native Balti- morean—caused today’s opener to have special interest.

PHYSICAL DEFECTS BRING FAILURE (Continuea from Page 1.) or more years ago but at present there are over five hundred cities and towns in the United States with medi- cal inspection of schools. ‘“The objection that the state has no right to permit or require medical inspection of the children in the school will not bear close scrutiny or logical ° analysis. The authority which has the right to compel at- tendance at school has the added duty of insisting that no harm shall come to those who go there. Nor is the state assuming the medical over- sight of the pupils, trespassing upon the domain of private rights and ini- tiative. Information for Parent. “Under medical inspection what is done for thie parent is to tell him of the needs of his child, of which he might otherwise have been ignorant. It leaves him with a larger responsi- bility than before. It is indeed diffi- cult to find a logical basis for the argument that the state has no right to inform the parents of defects pres- ent in the child and to advise as to remedial measures which should be taken to remove them. “Individual efficiency, however, rests not alone on edueation or intel- ligence, but is equally dependant on physical health and vigor. Hence if the state may make mandatory train- ing in intelligence, it may also com- mand training to secure physical soundness and capacity. Much time may elapse before there will be put in practice in all schools the measures 'now so successfully pursued in some for conserving and developing the physical soundness of rising genera- tions. But the movement is so inti- mately related to the future welfare of our country and has so signally demonstrated its value that it is des- tined to be universal and perma- nent.” PASS FEW LAWS IN 1915 (Continued from first page).

WOMAN BOSSES IN INSURANCE COMPANY Denver, Colo., April 27.—The only woman state insurance commissioner in’ the world, ‘Mrs.' D. M. Rolph of Colorado, admitted today that she did not know -an insurance policy when she saw it eight years ago, just start- ing her climb as a clerk in the state insurance commissioner’s office. “My experience was limited to a short business course in Utah, after which I got'married and started to raise babies,” she said. ‘“Later, nec- essity compelled me to go to work, and I just .went at it,-and here I am.” ; And where she is she has under her dainty thumb 332 insurance com- panies, worth many times many mil- lions of dollars. Mrs. Rolph is the type of woman deseribed as tiny. Her age—well, never mind her age. She’s young.

Undigested food delayed in the stomach decays, or rather, ferments the same as food left in the open air, says a noted authority. He also tells us that by Hyper-acidity, meaning, there is an excess of hydro- chloric acid in the stomach which prevents estion and ‘starts food .fer- in the stomach much like garbage sours in a can, forming acrid fluids and gases] which inflate the stomach like a -toy balloon. Then we feel a heavy, lumpy misery in the chest, we belch up gas, we eructate sour food or have heart- burn, flatulence, water-brash or nausea. + He tells us to lay aside all digestive aids and instead, get from any pharmacy four ounces of Jad Salts and take a tablespoonful in a glass of water before breakfast and drink while it is effer- vescing and furthermore, to continue this for a week. While relief follows the first dose, it is important to neutral- ize the acidity, remove the gas-making mass, start the liver, stimulate the kid- neys and thus promote a free flow of pure digestive juices. Jads Salts is inexpensive and is made from the acid of grapes and lemon juice, combined with lithia and sodium phos- phate. This harmless salts is used by thousands of people for stomach trouble with excellent results. IF SKIN BREAKS OUT AND [TCHES APPLY SULPHUR Use it like a cold cream and Eczema eruptions right up. The moment you apply bold-sulphur t0 an itching or brokin out skin. the itching stops and healing’ begins, says & renowned dermatologist. This remarkable sulphur made into a thick cream effects such prompt relief, a never-ending source of amazement to phlz'sieia.ns. 'or many years bold-sulphur has oc- cupied a secure position in the treat- ment of cutaneous eruptions by reason of ita cooling, parasitedestroying prop- | erties and nothing has ever been found to tako its place in relieving irritable and inflammatory affections of the skin. While not always establishing a perma- nent cure, yet in every instance, it immediately ‘subdues the' itching irrita- tion and heals the Eezema right up and it i often years later befote any erup- tion again manifests itself. Any good - druggist will supply an ounce of bold-sulphur, which should be applied to the affected parts like the ordinary cold creams.

But she can su- perintend the insurance department of Colorado state. Her duties are enormously respon- sible. She passes on the assets of every insurance company doing busi- ness in Colorado and these assets are in every imaginablé form of property. She’s witty, too, with all this re- sponsibility, and when an insurance company recently reported it owned some brewery stock she suggested they sell it, “for brewery stock may not be worth much in a very few years.” Mrs. Rolph was appointed commis- even in aggravated Eczema, that it is | ANCIENT TOOTHPICKS. Picture dealers can hardly supply Thoy Used to. Be Made of Silver and Were Worn In the Hat. The employment of toothpicks is very anclent. In Grote's *History of Greece” we find that Agathocles, “among the worst-of Greeks,” was poisoned by a medicated quill handed te¢ him 'for cleaning his teeth after dinner. Toothpicks were in common use in the time of the Caesars. Martial tells us those made of a chip of mastic wood (lentiscus) are the best, but that if you run short of such timber a quill will serve your purpose, and he ridicules an old fop who was In the habit of dig- ging away at his gums with his polish- ed lentiscus, though;je had not a, tooth left in his head: f Toothpicks ‘occur edtly of silver, but pleces of wood-or of feathers with a red end as quills in our day were most usual. The toothpick is the Anglo-Sax- on tothgare. The old name was pick- tooth. It was imported by. travelers from Italy and France, and the using of it was long deemed an affected mark of gentility. It was worn as a trophy in the hat, and Sir Thomas Overbury describes a courtier, the pink of fashion, “with a picktooth- in his hat.” Bishop Earle says of an idle gallant, “His picktooth bears a great part in his discourse.”—London Telegraph. SHORT LIFE OF BIG GUNS. Every Time a Rifle Is Fired Some of Its Bore Is Worn Away. The life of the gun. so far as its ab- solute destruction by bursting is con- cerned, is practically unlimited, but not so its accuracy life. Every time a gun 1s fired some of the interior sur- face of its bore and delicate rifling are wiped away, and a certain degree of its accuracy is lost. This is true of the shoulder rifle, with its bore so small that it would not much more than admit a lead pen- 'cil, no less than of the great sixteen inch siege gun and the other grades of .artillery pieces. Fortunately for the infantryman, the wear on the bore of the shoulder rifle is much slower, as the wearing out of the bore decreases rapidly with a de- crease in the size of the bore. Ero- sion, as it is called by the artillerymen, is greatest in the large guns and least in the 30 rifle. The big guns which form the main batteries of our warships and are em- placed in our coast fortifications can fire from 150 to 250 rounds (dependent upon the pressure and heat in the pow- der chamber) before they begin to lose their accuracy.—Scientific American. Doors In China. In China doors are often round, leaf shaped or semicircular. In placing them the builder usually avoids having one opposite another lest evil spirits find their way from the street into the recesses of the building. The door- ways separating the courts of a gar- den are usually of an elaborate kind. and the octagonal form is one of the most popuiar. Religious superstition asserts itself in Chinese architecture, and the universal sacredness of the numerals 8 and 9 is shown in the ar- rangement of temple doors. There is a triple gateway to each of the halls of the imperial palace, and the same order prevails at the Ming tombs. The Temple of Heaven has a triple roof, a triple marble staircase, and all its mys- tic symbolism points either to 3 or its multiples. The Yaws. On the west coast of Africa the na- tives call the raspberry a yaw. It hap- pens that one of the pleasing diseases that come out from that quarter of the globe is characterized by .dusky red spots that appear on the body and soon grow into ulcers about the size and looks of the raspberry. So this disease is called the yaws. It is contaglous and downright disagreeable. White sallors bring it back with them to their own discomfort and the disgust of those at home. Yaws prevails also in the demand for likenesses jof Lord Kitchener and Sir John Jellicoe, Eng- land’s foremost war idols. Pictures of General French, King Albert, Gen- eral Joffre and the Prince of Wales are also good sellers. Silk is 8o cheap in Madagascar that it is worn by the poorest natives.
