"Central" Appreciates Your Kindness There are three operators . concerned in every telephone call you, the party you are talking to and "central." All three parties must co-operate if the best ser vice is to be had. The telephone operators are human, just as you are. Being human, they appreciate kindness and cour tesy, but resent unkindness and discourtesy just as any of us do. Kindness begets kindness, courtesy creates cour tesy and patience encourages patience. If you wish to get the best out of your tele phone, make it a point to be kind and courteous to the operators.

C. HAMILTON (United P.iess Staff Correspondent) New York, Aug. 29. (If Boston wins the American league pennant, ball followers in the east believe John McGraw iwill have to wait for his second world's championship. But, if Chicago snares the Johnson flag, they deduce, Charles Oomiskey will have to wait for his fecond world's championship. At the same time it is the feeling that the Red Sox have skidded and tho White Sox gained some strength. The difference between the two clubs now, it is generally asserted, is very closa The answer is generally held out that the Red Sox are made up more closely as a unit of playing 'strength, whereas they are inclined to charge the Chicagoans with dull baseball at tunes.. ... ... ,. . ... . ...... . . The balance in a world's series will have to be a matching of powerful, National league hittf ng against pow erful American league pitching. In the past it has been pretty thoroughly demonstrated that power ful pitching carries the edge in a short series. Witness the startling success of the Braves in 1914, (he follow'jig success of the Red Sox against th Phillies in 1915 and the Dodgers in 1910. Athletics, Dodgers and Phil lies were noted for tihaii- terrible h!t-' ting, but the star heavers of the op posing clubs were fully competent to put over the necessary victories. With that us a precedent it is in dicated that the Giants hardly would win agai'nst. either the White Sox or Red Sox, but then comes the question of how much more effirient are the American league hurlers than the mounds men Manager McGraw has gathered around him. It has been proven the White Sox are greatly handicapped when against southpaw hurling, and it is from this angle that McGraw ha built up It's greatest pitching defense. Schupp, Sailee and Benton, the most success ful New York gunners, work with their off-hands. Whether they would be able to offset the efforts of Fabcr, Cicotte, Williams and Russell is tho point from where arguments will start. The Giant trio of southpaw stars isnrt figured as strong as Ruth, Shore, Mays and Foster. Chronic Constipation It is by no means an easy matter to euro this disease, but it can bo done in most instance by taking Chamber lain's Tablets and complying with the plain printed directions that accomp any each package.

Market Place HITTING PIFGHERSARE BE- ' . 'BY H. C. HAMILTON (United Press iStaff Correspondent) Now York, Aug. 29. Pitchers who not only are wiling to hit, but who can take a crack at a baseball with some of the best of hitters, are becom ing more frequent in the major leagues. Time was a short time ago, when pitchers carried a bat to the pinto merely because it was done, and a time at bat had to be there. Now there are eight pitchors in the American league who are batting .250 or better and in the National league there are ten. Babe Ruth of the Red Sox is the best sticker of the pt'tchcrs in either league, but Dutch Reuther, Cincin nati, Walter Johnson, Reb Russell and ' Ray Caldwell are considered excellent batsmen. Any one of them is likely to be called out to do pinch hitting for his club. ' Larry Cheney of the Podgers is a j good hitter. Dick Rudolph of the I Braves never shirks a time at bat,' am", he has a team mate of the same sort in George Tyler. Sherrod Smith of , the Dodgers would rathi-.r win a game with a hit than by a steller pitching pcrf ormance. Grover Alexander is 'considered a dangerous batsman. Nearly all the Yankee pitchers1 are good hitters. George Mogridge and i Ray Caldwell perhaps are the best, I but Al Russell has outhit both of j them this year. Claude Hendrix of the Cubs is respected by pitchers a: a hard, Inn;; hittei o:'.e v'io is just as ( likely to knock a basclj.dl out of tho lot us not. Mil V.'clfgang ol the WhHe Sox, although small, han.plcn , ty of courage at bat and makes liis hits. J Jack Coombs' hitting is an assrt j added to Irs pitching ability. Clar ence Mitchell of the Rods not only call pitch a good game, but ho can out field or play first base' and gets his regular safe ones. There are plenty of others perhaps more of the hitting kind of pitchers : than tho game ever knew before. Summer Complaint During the hot weather of tho sum mer months some member of almost ! every family is likely to be troubled with an unusual looseness of the bowels, and it is of the greatest im portance that this be treated prompt ly, which can only bo done when the l medicine is kept at hand. Mrs. F. F. Scott, Scottsville, N. Y., states, "I first used Chamberlain's Colic and Diarrhoea Remedy as much as five years ago. At that time I had a se vere attack of summer complaint and was suffering intense pain. One dose ' relieved me. Other members of my family have since used it with like , results."
