we'll or ought to know, that he is one
of the principal organizers and heaviest
stockholders IN the Baltimore club Of the
American league. His private business.
interests are In Baltimore and he has
pledged his friends and supporters here to
do all in his power to give them a good
base ball team this season.
He has begun to secure his players. the
grounds Will be finally selected in a week
or two and by March he will announce
the makeup of the new Baltimore team,
which will include some of the best play
ers in the country.
If MeGraw and Robson have any other
intention than the organization of a Bal
timore club in the American league their
talk and conduct do not indicate 1t. Nc
Graw is undoubtedly one of the sharpest
diplomats in the base ball business and
no matter at what turn in the game, he
always lands on his feet. While he does
not admit it, there is doubt that he
has received an offer from Freedman
equally as tempting any Robson would
make, but neither will be accepted un-
less the American league is failure.
Even in that event McGraw may not be
seen on a National league team He is
rapidly acS uiring a fortune and his base
ball enterprises in the future will be more
in the character of a magnate than as a.
player.

dy would be on my back. take great
pleasure in writing this letter because so
many people are sufferers from this Irou-
Bile who like myself did not know where to
look for a permanent. safe, reliable
cure"
Experience with the Pyramid Pile
Cure for the past three years has dem
onstarted to the medical profession as
well as to thousands of sufferers from
piles, that it is the safest and most er-
fectual pile cure ever offered to the pub
lie, containing no opiates or poisons of
handle. and being sold by druggists at
soc and 81. 90 per box, is within the reach
of every sufferer
Very often two or three boxes have
made a complete cure of chronic cases
that had not yielded to other remedies
for years.
There is scarcely a disease more ag-
gravating and obstinate to cure than the
various AOiHiS u pies, anu II - d SoAu-
mon practice to use ointments, salves
and similar preparations containing
dangerous poisons to remove the trou-
BILE. The Pyramid has superseded all of
these ineffectaa1 remedies and no one
suffering with any rectal trouble win
make any mistake in giving the Pyra-
mid a trial.
If in doubt as to the nature of your
trouble send to the Pyramid Drug Co.,
Marshall. Mich. for a valuable book on
piles, describing all forms of the disease
and describing the method Of cure.
Any druggist can furnish the Pyramid
Pile Cure as it is the best known and
most popular remedy for piles, and If
you ask him he can doubtless refer you
to many people in your own vicinity
who have been cured completely by it.

INTENSE SUFFERING
FROM DYSPEPSIA AND STOMACH
TROUBLE
Instantly Relieved and Permanently
Cured by stuart's Dyspepsia
Tablets.
A New Discovery. But Not a Patent
Medicine.

DR.. Redwell relates an interesting ac-
count of what he considers remarkable
cure of acute stomach trouble and
chronic dyspepsia by the use of the new
discovery. Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets.
He says THE patient was man who
had suffered to my knowledge, for years
with dyspepsia Everything he ate
seemed to sour and create gases in the
stomach He had pains like rheumatism
in the back, shoulder blades and limbs,
fullness and distress after eating poor
appetite and loss Of flesh: the heart be-
came affected, causing pa1pitation and
sleeplessness at night.
II gave him powerful nerve tonics and
blood remedies, but to no purpose As
an experiment I finally bought a so
cent package of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tab
him Almost immediate relief was given
and after ne had used four boxes he was
to all appearances fully cured
There was no more acidity or sour,
watery risings. no bloating after meals,
the appetite was vigorous and he had
gained between 10 and IL pounds in
weight Of solid healthy flesh.
Although Stuart's Dyspepsia Tab
lets are advertised and sold in drug
stores. yet consider them a most VAL
liable addition to any physicians line
Of remedies, as they are perfectly harm
less and can be given to children or in
valids or in any condition of the stom-
ach. with perfect safety, being harmless
and containing nothing but fruit and
vegetable essences pure pepsin and
Golden Seal
without any question they are the
safest, most effective cure for indiges-
ton, biliousness, constipation and all
arrangements of the stomach, however
slight or severe
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are made
by the F. A. Stuart Co. Of Marshall,
Mich. and are sold by druggists every
where at so cents per package.

10 WORK CHARLEY HERR
Owner Will Have Him on Edge at
Beginning of Season

Lexington KY, Jan. 16-"Uncle Davy''
Cahill. the dairyman owner Of Charley
Herr, viii prepare his great trotting
stallion to win from the start this sea-
son. In previous seasons Charley Herr
has started on the circuit with not work
enough to put him in first class fettle,
and has been raced into condition.
Charley Herr is now turned out at
Westbrook stud. but his owner will take
him up within the next week and begin
slow work on him. The exceptionally
mild weather, If it continues, will give
Cahin ample opportunity to give his
charge some useful preparation work.
Mr. Cahill says his horse has the speed,
and that he expects to have him ready
when the bell rings for his first race.
Some idea of the agnitude Of the
trotting-horse business in central Ken
lucky and of the number of trainers
who work their charges at the Licking
ton track can be CLEANED from the
statement that Brook Curry will erect
a hotel for the accommodation Of the
trainers and their families near the en-
trance Of the track. He has purchased
the property known as the Isaac Smith
place, near the rear entrance Of the
track. The house now on the property
will be remodeled and extensive addi-
tons will be made to it.
