NEiGHBORLY ADVICE
Freely Given by an Ak
ron Citizen.

When one has suffered tortures from
bad back and found out how the
aches and pains can be removed, ad-
vice is of untold value to friends and
neighbors, particularly when they
know the statement is absolutely cor
rect. The following neighborly ad-
vice comes from an Akron resident:
Mr.. S. Il. Adams, 200 w. Chestnut
St, employed at the Goodrich Rubber
works, says:-"Doan's Kidney Pills for
sale at Lamparter & Co.'S. drug store,
helped me very much and I should
have used more of them but getting
so much relief from a single box and
feeling no more pain l stopped the
treatment. My trouble was backache,
aching in my head and difficulty with
the kidneys. Doan's Kidney Pills caD-
tainly relieved me, stopped the toe

tions and otherwise benefiting me.

QREAT BASE BALL.

Regarding the past season series of
games between the Americans and
the Pirates, which was won by the
National leaguers dispatch from
Pittsburg, says the followingi
The series of four games between
the Pittsburg team and the All Amer
leans was without doubt the great
est series ever played. Never were
two such strong and evenly match
ed teams pitted against each other
in similar battle. OF the four games
three were shut outs, both teams be-
ing unable to score In one which went
to eleven innings. While victory went
to the Pirates. the question of super
iority was not settled as in two of
the games, the Americans were with
out the services of their best player
Lajoie. In the second game at Pitts
burg the papers of that city admit
that the Nationals would not have
scored had Larry been on second. In
his place on second were Carey and
Davis. two first basenhen. and it was
their errors that gave the Pirates both
of their runs, Joss pitching a shut
ont game. The first game, which was
won by Pittsburg by the score Of to
8, was. according to Tommy Leach
due to the haziness which caused
Dick Harley to lose sight of fly
which was knocked in his direction
a fly which counted for three bases
and scored the winning run, insteat
of being an easy out.

in disposing Of Kid Mcfarland before
the International club at Ft. Erie,
Ont, knocking the New Yorker out af-
ter two minutes and twenty-five Sec

blow that did the business was left
hand to the pit Of the stomach, the
same blow with which Mcfarland has
won many fights. Mcfarland writhed
on the floor while Charlie White count
ed ten seconds but few seconds later
he was fully recovered.
Cans made Mcfarland do the fight

and looking for u chance to land one
decisive punch.
