Foot Ball.


The foot ball game last Saturday on the
West End grounds between the Christ
Church Boys Club and the Preston A. c.
of Philadelphia, was one of the hardest
fought contests we have had in Woodbury.
for some time The Woodbury. boys
finally winning by score of II to 5
The visitors started with a rush and
scored ia about FIVE minutes on a well
executed trick. The team starting a
revolving wedge and delaying the pass.
The fast pace began TO tell on the visitors,
while the home team seemed to get
stronger as the game progressed, and by
straight line bucking and running between
the ends, scored touchdown ten seconds
before the half ended
The second half found the visitors still
unable TO hold the Woodbury. boys, and
another touchdown and goal resulted.
The home team played fast aggressive
game, and won the game by good straight
foot ball. The only thing to mar the
game was an attempt of one of the Wood
bury linesmen to deliberately rob the yisi-
tors by putting the line yard or two
back 1t probably did not make particle
of difference in the score, but it should
not be tolerated.
There was large crowd present who
enjoyed themselves very much. Mr. Lee
Of the PrestOns, seemed to be the main Guy

TWO FINE SPECIMENS
or Physical Manhood.

No form OF athletic exercise demands
such perfect physical condition as prize
fighting. Every muscle in the BODY must
be fully developed and supple, and the
heart, lungs, and stomach must act 10
perfection.
Whether we endorse prze-hghting or
not, it IS nevertheless interesting to know
the manner by which men arrive at such
physical perfection
James Jcffries, the present champion
heavyweight Of the world, and his gal
liant opponent, Tom Sharkey, in the great
est pugilistic encounter that has ever
taken place, both pursued much the same
course Of training, and the first and most
important part OF this training was 10
get the stomach in condition and 20 keep
the digestion absolutely perfect, so that
every muscle and nerve would be at its
highest capabilities.
This was not done by a secret patent
medicine. but both of these great pugilists
used a well-known natural digestive tab
let, sold by druggists under name OF
Stuarts Dyspepsia Tablets and composed
OF the digestive ferments which every
stomach requires for healthy digestion.
Champion Jehries says: "Stuart's Dys-
pepsia Tablets prevent acidity. strengthen
the stomach, and insure perfect digestion.
They keep a man in fine physical condi-
ton" Signed, James j. Jefieries cAam-
pion Of the world.
The gallant fighter. Sharkey. says:
"Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets remove all
discomfort after eating. They rest the
stomach and restore II 10 a healthful
condition. | heartily recommend them"
Signed, Thomas j. Sharkey.
The advantage OF the daily use OF
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets is that they
keep people well and ward off sickness.
and are equally valuable 10 we'll persons
as TO the dyspeptics. Another advantage
is that these tablets contain no cathar-
tics or poisons OF any character, but sim
ply digestive ferments which are found In
every healthy stomach. and when dges-
tion Is imperfect IL is because the stom-
ach lacks some OF these elements, and
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets supply II.
They are no cheap cathartic. but per-
fectly safe and efficient digestive. and the
demand for them is greater than the sale
OF all other so-called dyspepsia cures
combined. No remedy could possibly
reach such place in public esteem ex-
cept as the result OF positive merit.
Full-sized packages are sold by all drug
glsts at 80 cents and the best habit you
can possibly form Is TO take a Stuart Tab

this date he had just returned from
three-weeks' cruise around the islands,
and went as far south as Borneo. They
were out after smugglers and hlibusters,
and struck considerable luck. The Helena,
which was built at Newport News. on
this cruise sunk and burned twelve
schooners and two steamers. Being OF

able to run UP into the bays and rivers
and seek out her prizes Most all the
captures were made at night by means
OF a great search-light stationed on the
forward deck.
In his letter Mr.. Lacy says: As soon
as we came into Manila we got orders
