WHEN RIDING LOSES ITS THRILL.
There is nothing better than a daily ride to keep the body and brain in a healthy, active condition. It is for this reason that riding is a favourite exercise among those who can afford it in most countries of the world.
But it happens sometimes that even to its most ardent dovoloo riding ceases to be a pleasure; he finds that he quickly geta tired, is conscious of a losa of confidence and enthusiasm.
Why this staleness? The answer almost invariably is that for one reason or anoinor something has gone wrong internally, the blood is at fault, the nerves are run-down, and so the whole system has ceased to function properly.
Such symptoms should not be neglected, and they can be easily and quickly remedied, as a rule, if promptly and properly treated. For instance innumerable people have found in a short course of Dr. Williams Pink Pills, the world's most famous blood builder and nerve tonic, just the treat ment needed.
Tho prescription of an eminent physician, an M.D. of Edinburgh University, the pills contain fron in a form which is rendily nasimilated and quickly absorbed into the blood. Recently in Canada over one hundred people had their blood tested before and after taking Dr. Williams' Pink Pills to see what improvement in iron and health they had gained. The testa irrefutably proved that Dr. Williams Pink Pills definitely increases the iron in the blood and that health and vitality and resistance to disease are greatly improved. In taking Dr. Williams' Pink Pills you are using "tested" remedy. If you are
you are suffering from any of the consequences of Impoverished blood, digestive weakness, nerve troubies, headaches, insomnie, rheumatism, sciatica, lumbago, premature ageing, or the aches and pains peculiar to wemess, begin your cure to-day with Dr. Williams' Pink Pills: they are sold by cheminta overywhere.

HOW TO PLAY. QUARTERBAČK NUTE ROCKNE'S idea of a good quarter-,
Kluck was a fellow with plenty of personal- Ity, a "cocky" attitude, and a good barking voice so that when he yelled the signals the backfield didn't have the tendency to be lulled to sleep. In short, he was an Inspirational leader.
Rock also thought that the two most impor- tant things to teach a quarterback were when not to pass and: "When in doubt, punt."
But football has changed, what with the ad- vent of the lateral, and forward passes being tossed almost anytime.
By Blosser
A quarterback is boss of all situations, lie must either succeed on his own hook, or sports- manlike, take a rap for an error in judgment.
He must always be on the lookout for the breaks, and must punk, punt, punt, on a wel, sloppy field until he gets one of those breaks.NEXT
