DOOLIq9LE'S SUCCESS.
The Team Rolled a High
Score Against Volun-
teer.
UNION WON AND LOST.
Orientals' Victories in Harlem
Put Them in the Lead-Glio
Wheelmen's Hot Election.

The thing expected did not happen last
night. and in place of defeats the Doc
little Club has strengthened its grasp
upon he second prize in the local league.
The team won both games last night and
did 1t by the strongest kind Of bowling.

in the first frame but that was all. Doo-

did some clever. spare work. The team

the leading authority in the medical

treatment have swept away all the old
fashioned ideas of doctoring with poison
Gus drugs that create a dozen diseases
IN the effort to get rid of one. He does
not claim that he has one remedy that
will cure all complaints, but that he has
prepared a specific cure for nearly every
disease. He does claim that Munyon's
Rheumatism Cure will cure rheumatism;
that Munyon's Dyspepsia Cure is a posi-
