Mrs. H. B. Sperry, who is now the emf
nent president of the Woman's National
Press Association, was assistant editor of
the Washington World. Her vigorous
editorials in Ohio and Washington news
papers first brought her into national
prominence.
The active profession of journalism has
kept Mrs. Sperry up to date in informa-
tion and progressive in thought. When
there was evident need of remedy in her
family she was we'll aware that Paine's
celery com pound was best to use. The
following enthusiastic letter shows the
happy results from the use of this greatest
ofsremedies:
Wells e. Richardson Co.. Burlington, VT.
Dear Sirs: A few weeks use of Paine's 8
celery compound by my S9-year-old
mother has been of great benefit to her
and proved to my satisfaction that there 8
nothing like it for the headaches and
sleeplessness incident to impaired diges-
ton. A niece in my family was also cured
of insomnia by using one bottle of Paine s
celery compound.
Yours very truly,
Hannah B. Sperry.
In every part OF this country women are
utilizing these blessed spring days by TAX
ing Paine's celery compound and insisting
on its use by the members of their fami-
lies. 1t speaks volumes for this wonderful
remedy that of all the women who have
recovered health by its means very many
we're induced to take it through the per.
suasion of other women-sisters, mothers,
friends or relatives.
Many a man slowly failing in health,
but stubbornly shutting his eyes to the
alarming fact, has been led to take Paine's
celery compound from seeing its remark
able health-giving effect in the case of his
own wife, sister or some other member OF
his household.

length by George Miller in driving finish.
The favorite, messed about in the stretch,
was fair third. Fifteen to one was laid
against Mount Roy finishing in the place,
and not a few players who searched
through the early issues of the dope"
book nibbled at the bait.
The Texas horses victory proved a
costly one for his owner, w. l.. Stanfield,
for entered to be sold for $1,000, an out
slider boosted his price to $500, at which
figure his owner retained him with the
usual S. bid.
In view of the consistent performances of
the honest-going gelding ever since he has
been racing on the local tracks, the run-up
looked uncalled for and was not counte-
nanced by the majority of horsemen and
race-goers.
The track was muddy, of the holding,
sticky sort, and played havoc with most of
the favorites, but two OF the six sent to the
post getting back to the tape in front of
their fields. One of the biggest dumps of
the afternoon was the defeat of the top
heavy first choice Major Cook by the 80 to
l outsider Charles A, who won cleverly in
fast time.
Irma was made 2 to choice for the
first race at six furlongs, and finished
third after leading into the stretch. In a
drive the Az to l chance Verdette beat
Jerome out head.
Seven started in the seven-furlong run
decided over the inside course. Morven
was hot 3 TO 5 favorite in the betting,
and shaking Decision off by the time the
stretch was reached won handily at the
wire neck before the to l second choice
May Day. Miss Ruth was a very bad
third.
By Holly's gelding Major Cook was a
cinchy favorite in the third event at six
furlongs, the short price of to being
eagerly grabbed up by the bettors. He
was outrun from the very outset by
Charles A, who gradually forged to the
front and passed the wire an easy winner
by two lengths in the fast time of 1:161l
San Marco, well backed for the place, was
good third.
The promising two-Year-old Sweet
nounced type for muddy going. 1t was
no secret, though. for he was backed down
in the betting on the five-fGrioag spin for
the kindergarten division from 20 TO Z
to 5. Getting away third, he took the lead
at leisure and won easily length in ad-
vance of Horatio in 1:033l, an excellent
performance.
A heavy plunge was made on New Moon
to gather in the last race of the day-a
cheap selling affair over six furlongs-her
odds being gradually rubbed from TO l to
13 10 5. Unfortunate in getting away
from the post poorly, the Montana flly
MADE up deal of round, but had TO be
content with toird place, behind Favory
and Howard. Favory, who captured the
race in drive, was at one time Is to l in

H. G. Eggers, highly esteemed Cali
fornia pioneer, died in this City yesterday,
succumbing to stroke of paralysis after
an illness of only eighteen days.
He passed away in his residence on the
corner of Ellis aud Laguna streets, being
surrounded at the last by his family. He

George Henry Eggers was born in the
village of Lagershausen. Hanover, April
IA, 1920, so that he was 76 years old at the
time of his death. He arrived in New
York in 1s4S and proceeded to st. Louis,
where he engaged in business. In 1S49 he
was attracted to California by the news OF
the discovery of gold, suffering en- route
from an attack of cholera at New Orleans.
He reached San Francisco in the brig
Capiopa in August, 1S49.
After short experience at the gold.
fields on the American River mining for
the precious metal Mf. Eggers started a
general merchandise store, which proved
success. In 1858, having disposed
of his interest to his partner, Mr..
Eggers returned to San Francisco, es-
tablished a grocery business at the
corner of Bush and Battery streets and
subsequently founded wholesale grocery
business in the building known as Cali
fornia block. After continuance of busi-
ness in this locality for several years in
company with Christian H. Voight, the
firm purchased the lot and erected the
building known as 210 California street
the present location of Eggers e. Co., an
importing and commission house. Herman
c. Eggers, a son, took the place of Mr.,
Voight as partner in 1880.
The deceased was a life member of the
German General Benevolent Society, ol
