WRITTr.X FOR THn SUXDAT RnPCBIJC. In direct contrast to the Cardinals is tho hatting record of the SI. Louis American Lr-arue team. Xone of the Browns h broken into the .3ut select circle, Big John Anderson lending tho team with .2SL. Still tho Browns are winning games right along. Boh Wood of Cleveland, who has suc ceeded SWireckeiigost at first b.tf. Is now the leader In the American, having shot to the front during the uU with lie huge record of .417 for ristecn games. All of which is a mu to witness to tho v. orklngs of the f"ul strike rule. Lave Cross Is a pi.or fecund, lit has hit .SSS in twentj' cen garryis. Ed Dele canty, the Washing ton slugger. Is in third place. Only tncnty three m.-n ale hatting In the .Z& clns. fcuch, hitters as lllikman, 1'recman, And. r Eon. Jones, Ucidrick. Uurkott, Hartsel. w :'et catching thtir stride. Dave Vi& of t .o Athletics leads In rims scored, while D.ia MtUann. "Old Ky." is the best hand at the thievery of basts. With srch sluggers as Delehanty. R-an. Clarke and a few others. Washington ha giiie U the fiont in team hilling, with the Athletics a good second. The Smnturs also lead in long hits. IJuck Freeman still holds tho title of the chief long-rango slugger. Mertcs lendn in Mulea bate1- on the per centage sv.-tem of ligui-ins. Cv Young, our old Cy, has the best pitching Jeoid "n tn wh.plu bliekboard. Up to la-t Friday Young had ton ten sam.s, losing only one. Tho lirowns aro away below par in every line. Heidrick and Kurkctt aro still lloun dcrlns amont the "alio rans." Wallace Is cloto to this slugging pair, with "llack stoii Joa" Sugden well up. McCormlcl: is not keeping up his good work of a week ago and Captain l'adden is far down tho list, ilaloney is bringins up In the rear with the puny average of .13.. .Manager ?.IcAleer H certainly missing Davy Jones: in this respect, at leat. The team Is last In club batting, with .1 record of but .23, and sixth In extra ba9- hitting. There is an odd coincidence In the eitra baso hitting of the two St. Ixiuls tcani3 in tii.lt each has 110 extra cushions on its record. Following are the ligures complete to Inst Friday.

Varicocele slowly but surely lowers the standard of vitality and depletes the ner-ous .ystcm, which is the foundation of physical strength and that masterful quality which 13 lest expressed by the terra manliness.
