  mifralu: There are many people in this big,
round world of ours who somehow
have formed the erroneous opinion
that a chess player is a sort of cadaverous,
dyspeptic individual who sits
for hours at a time in a semi-stupor
studying what his next move will be;
that he is good for little else than
moon and moon, become bilious,
irritable and generally good for nothing.
Two examples will show how erroneous
this idea really is. < Claude H. Coyle, >
Humboldt, Ia., now playing in
the Iowa-Nebraska match against
N.O. Griffin of St. Edward, is a young
man only 17 years of age, yet he figures
prominently in two magazines this
month. A fine specimen of his defense
to an Evans' gambit is given in the
American Chess World, copied from
the San Antonio Sunday Light, which
shows promise of fine chess play in the
future. And in Physical Culture appears
a cut of Mr. Coyle showing his
superb muscular development, the resuit
of self-training under the guidance of
that magazine. Then, too, some
weeks ago The Independent's foreman
inadvertently placed an advertisement
of Dr. Dosem's Double-dyed Pills on
the chess page, and there was a merry
row on at once. The doughty doctor
didn't want his ad. on the chess page-
and why? Because, I judge, he has
an idea that chess players have too
much sense to form the pill habit,
although, his excuse was that few
people look at a chess column.
