Moraantown Won, But Not Proudly.

The Morgantown Reserves and the
Clarksburg baseball club played a
game of ball in the baseball park here
Saturday Afternoon. The game was
closely contested, but Morgantown
won out with margin they need not
be proud of. The home boys were in
excellent trim and put up a still fight.
They did not seem to do much good,
however, until toward the last. AT
the end of the sixth inning they had
practically nothing, but at the close of
the tenth inning land the end ofthe
game the score showed up well for the
home fellows. Itstood to 5 in favor
Of Morgautown. Clarksburg had the
visitors whippedat one stage Of the
game but stopped to argue some point
and gave the other fellows time to
recover. The evening before Wilson
burg and the home boys tried to have
a game, but In the midst a row took
place, the visitors objecting to I'm.
plre Byrd's decisions. The game was
called ,off before it could be finished.
The attendance at both games was
gratifying.

yirulent cancer Cured.

Startling proof of a wonderful ad
vance In medicine is given by druggist
G. w. Roberts, OF Elizabeth, W. Va.
An old man there had long suffered
with what doctors pronounced Incur
able cancer. They believed his case
hopeless till he used Electric Bitters
and applied Bucklen's Arnica Salve,
which treatment completely cured
him. When Electric Bitters are used
to expel bilious, kidney and microbe
poisons at the same time this salve
exerts its matchless healing power,
blood diseases, skin cruptious, ulcers
and sores vanish. Bitters soc. Salve

FREE RURAL DELIVERY

Cant. Doyener in Washington Times
The benefits derived from the estab-
,lishment Of the rural free delivery
system in any section Of thisEreat Re-
public are manifold. 1t materially
Increases the circulation and dissem-
nation of literature in the way Of
daily papers, in the farming aud rural
districts.
n also brings the daily mail to all
our people. and materially increases
the post onice revenues, in that wher-
ever the rural free delivery Is estab-
lished the farmers write let ers every
day, when heretofore they only wrote
one letter once In two or three weeks.
Throughout the State Of Vest vir-
einia, and Isuppose It will apply to
every section, the people are happy
when a new rural free delivery route
is established, and disappointed when
the conditions are not up to the re-
ouirements Of the Postoff1ce Depart
ment for establishing route.
The educational and moral value Of
the rural free delivery system cannot
be overestimated. The dailynewspa.
pers are prominent and potent factor
in the education of the people, and the
farmers who are now enjoying the
benefits Of the establishment Of rural
free delivery system cannot under
stand why they were content with the
weekly paperso long.
The communication the rural free
delivery affords the farmer with the
world makes not himself, buthis chill
dren satisfied with the rural life, as
they no longer consider themselves
isolated from the world.
AS a factor In the advancement of
education, the rural free delivery
routes can multiply none too fast, and
every cent expended in their establish
ment will be returned ten-fold.
