consider the salary limit, which they
ought to remember, has been fixed
with a view to maintaining the as
ISOLATION throughout the season.
If the organizers of the association
believed they could make a success
with n $1,000 salary limit, they GER
tainly would have adopted it instead
Of 5000. While the cities of San An
tonic, Houston, Galveston, Fort Worth
and Dallas can probably afford to pay
81, 200 for a team, Austin must content
herself with n cheaper team. The
other cities would have walkoyer
with Austin, Interest in the Capital
city would soon die out, the club
would withdraw from the association,
and the circuit would be broken,
which would eventually mean the col
lapse of the organization.
1t is reported that a number Of clubs
of the league are going over the limit,
and that some cities will even pay as
much as $1,000 for a tedm. It might
be we'll for President Heuermann to
inquire into these matters. II such
reports are true it would be better to
abolish the salary limit altogether,
and take chances on the seasons sue
cess.

YOUR TIRED STOMACH.

Il have no appetite" you say, land
the little l do eat does me no good.
At first it feels dead and cold in my
stomach and by and bye 1 have aches
and pains that sometimes 90 to my
chest and back. | feel weak, low
spirited and out of sorts all over. |
fancy the demon of dyspepsia has got
me-" That's the way you talk and no
wonder. But wait moment. Let
us reason together. Perhaps thus far
your stomach is merely tired. You
have been eating too much, eating the
wrong things, and irregularly. You
have given it too much to do, and like
all living things, when overworked,
it stops at length from sheer eXhaus
ton. There may not actually be a
diseased condition as yet. Still it is
natures warning, and you must heed
it or worse will follow But l must
eat or starve," you say. True enough,
but safety usually lies in middle
courses. Here is one for you. You
don't need drastic purges or exciting
stimulants. The tired stomach won't
work under whip and, spur. 1t has
probably had too much of that al
ready. What you require is some
thing that is at once a food. Such
an article is the Shaker Digestive Cor
dial. discovered and prepared by the
Shaker community at Mt. Lebanon.
y. Y. Taken right after eating, so as
to mix with the food, it does the stom-
ach's work for it, gives it the advan-
tage of further rest, strengthens you
in a natural way, and soon enables the
stomach to do full duty. There is
nothing else, like this simple, safe,
certain and palatable remedy. Yet
the Shakers respect your doubts. and
authorize druggists to sell trial bot
tie for ten cents.

BASEBALL.

The Salary Limit OF The Taxes AS
ISOLATION An Important Question.
Applications from baseball players
from Maine to Florida, for positions
on the San Antonio team, are coming
in with every mail. Some of the ap-
plicants are very cOnsiderate and en-
close a postage stamp for an answer.
Among the letters received yester-
day was one from a young medical
student from Richmond, Va. He is
willing to come to San Antonio for
$3.50 for the season. He writes that
he has played full back on a football
team and that he is second baseman.
His terms are too reasonable and he
writes too well to be a good ball play
er.
A tried and true ball player will
write on this style: Il cent yu mi
terms abowt tn weeks ago, didn't here
from WI yet, and so rite agin to no
If WI want me. My terms are $40
per month, $75 advance and free
transportation" The last sentence,
it will be seen. is all right as for the
spelling.
1t is a stereotyped phrase that ball
players have impressed upon their
memories. Although the salary limit
is 5000, and every club in the associa-
ton has pledged its adherence to it,
| yet this man wants $175, which only
| shows what little disregard a ball
| player has for his fellowman. He
| ought to remember that besides him
| self. there are ten other men who are
to receive their monthly stipend out
of the 5000.
