A prominent physician from Gin

"My patient has just finished the
last bottle Of the genuine Johann
Hof's Malt Extract with marked i'm
provement. I can cheerfully say it
is all, and more than you claim for
it, for in my patients case of dyspep-

stomach; hence there was extreme
debility, and she certainly could not
have survived much longer.
."After taking the second bottle
we could see quite an improvement.
Her appetite became better, and she
could retain food without distressing
her. She feels-for the first time in
six months that size has been in bed
that she will recover. 1t has GER
tainly proved in her case a great
boon. 1 can cheerfully indorse the

strong amateur club from St. Louis, played
a very interesting and exciting game of ball

and hitting three men. After the fourth
inning his pitching was superb. Markell,
of the Alliance club, pitched an even steady
game. The star play of the game was made

MIppLETowN, Aug. 10-Manager Thorn
dixie, of the Wesleyan football team, was in
town a few days ago making arrangements
for the fall games. A new football field will
be laid out on the old baseball campus, and
the old football field will be devoted to the
use of the freshman team. About half of
the members OF the Varsity team will spend
the last two weeks OF the month with their
trainer, Billy Bull, at Newport. while at the
same time another squad will practice on
the athletic grounds at Asbury Park, n. j.
The whole team will return to Middletown
on September u, and will at once go int
active training.
The indications are that the team will be
decidedly the strongest in the history of the
college. The center will be the strongest
and heaviest in the Intercollegiate League,
unless the other colleges make some big dis
coveries among their freshmen. The conf
bined weight OF the three center men-Cutts,
North and Newton-will reach over GOO
Npounds.

wonderfully good.
Abbie V. lost two heats. Then Turner
took her back in the third heat keeping her
steady for q squirt home and she outfooted
Illinois Egbert in 2:17. The speedy gelding
came back with clip in the fourth heat that
carried Abbie V. Off her feet and he had i'm
proved his Pittsburg record a quarter of a
second by trotting in s:leA. The selding was
unsteady in the fifth heat and the gray mare
came through in 2:16Z. Abbie V. jumped
