IT'S MADNESS TO DEFER!
THE USE OF
Paine's Celery
Compound
IN SPRlNG1lME.
Means Punishment of Disease
and the Establishment of
Strength, Vigor, and Per-
feet Health.

Well meaning and really worthy peo-
pie often err when sickness and disease
come to them. Too often they are con-
tent to follow blindly the advice of sec
ond-rate physicians, who in nine cases
out of every ten fail to properly diagnose
the ills they are called upon to cure. Too
frequently our sick people put their trust
and confidence in common, advertised
pills, nervines, sarsaparillas, and other
liquid connections. Terrible disappoint-
ments and results come to the users Of
such medicines; sickness and disease are
aggravat ed-their dangers vastly in
creased. go s'a
Happy are the people who, when disease
has laid it's hand upon them, use Dr..
Phelps life giving prescription, Paine
| Celery Compound; a medicine that stands
without an equal for feeding exhausted
nerves, purifying the blood, and building
up the weakened and run down system.
| Weakly, sickly and disease laden NOR
tai, it is madness to defer the use of that
health giving medicine that has rescued
and saved it's tens of thousands in every
| land s=r
| Paine's Celery Compound is the one true
specific recognized and prescribed to-day
by our most eminent and our most honest
j practi tioners for diseases arising from a
debilitated nervous system You need its
| use this very day; your condition demands
it,; common sense and knowledge OF
/ what Paine's Celery Compound has done
/ for others, should. be your guide at the
critical time of your life. PA1NE'S is
the kind that makes sick people well!
! See that the name is ,on both bottle and
4 wrapper. Do not be. induced to take a
substitute or any imitation; you need the
kind that has cured others.

BASEBALL
THE FANS DAY OFF.
Opening of the American Associa-
ton Season To-day.
MINNEAPOLIS PLAYS COLUMBUS
Wilmot Signs zalusky, the Star
MINNEAPOLIS PLAYS COLUMBUS
Wilmot Signs Zalusky, the Star
Catcher, Released by Re-
quest by Chicago.

This is the day picked by the American
association schedule makers for starting
the race of 1902 1t was extremely fortu-
nate for all concerned that the opening
games were placed as far south as the
circuit would permit, as the st. Paui ana
Minneapolis fans might have been little
cool toward the game If they had been
asked to turn out to-day.
The millers open their season at Column
bus, where Jack Grim, the old catcher
and former miller is manager, and frst
baseman, Other ex-millers on the
team are "Handsome Dan" Lally and
Baily, the tall pitcher.
The millers have been strengthened by
the addition of Jack Zalusky, the catcher.
He was with Louisville and Grand Rapids
last season and ranked high in all depart
ments Of the game. Chicago snapped him
UP and New York was after him. Column
bus also laid claim to his services, by rea-
son of having bought all the assets of the
old Grand Rapids team. Zalusky wanted
to play in his home town, however, and
Chicago, having King, Chance and Kahoe,
all veteran backst ops, consented to let the
youngster go, Columbus waived its claim
and Zalusky became miller. He is son
of Oficer Frank Zalusky of the police
force and has been popular ever since he
began chasing the leather in South Mime
apolls' ne was Inc corner eCoAe VI the
university team of 1900, which was pro-
baby the best team the "U'' ever had
| 1t is understood that he will report to
Wilmot at once.>
The other teams in the American asso-
citation are in excellent condition, though
| Tebeau's crowd at Louisville is largely
an experiment. and the Kansas City team
has been weakened by the raid of the
Western leaguers. Messitt and Ketchem
are good men, but can easily be replaced
1t will be impossible, however, to fill the
hole caused by the flop of Clyde Robinson
and the pitchers, Weimer and Gibson, will
| be sadly missed.
Clingman's fast bunch, who won from the
famous whitesox, will open at Indianapo,
lis and the Kansas City blues will seel
to arouse enthusiasm among the proud
| colonies of Louisville.

the wool situation as follows: New wcols

For fine TERRITORY woods about 47@4sc is the
secured basis of sales in the Boston market
with well-stao pied lots w to sec clean. The
range for fine medium woods is about 43@45c
secured, with medium at 3S@4oc. The mar
ket for fine fleece wopls holds steady, but
sales are slow and available offerings small.
Fer Ohio fine delaine the price is about 2Sa@
29c washed with Xxx and above Ohio at 27@
271ac. Fine unwashed Ohio heeces are quiet
at 191z@20c, with fine Michigan at 17k@1Sc.
The call for medium feeces is small. with
about 216211ac for quarter blood Ohio, and
Michigan quarter-bloods at 2GGD20Rc. Pulled

H. H. Hirschy of Minneapolis, winner
Of the grand American handicap at Kan

at Omaha, when he knocked out a high
score in the Nebraska state trap shooting

through which it was at times impossible
to see dozen yards, made it impossi-
BILE for any of the shooters to break any

Eastern Cuba-rhey Propose Not to-
Raise the Long staple Cotton, bat
to Build Willis and Manufacture 1t.
Sea Island Cotton Said TO Have
Been Grown in Cuba During Amer
lean War of Secession.
Havana, Cuba, Aug. 6.-The syndi-
cate of Anglo American capitalists,
headed by Mr.. George w. Ireland of
Philadelphia and in which Sir William
Van Morne and a number of promi-
nent Canadians are largely interested,
has just purchased 250,00O acres of
lard near Bayamo, in eastern Cuba,
and formed company with capital
in Cuba, believing that this crop is
destined to succeed sugar as the ISL
and's staple export.
Members of the company announce
their purpose, not only to produce cot
ton for export to Great Britain and the
continent of Europe. but to also es-
tahlish cloth mills here, so that Cuba,
like Georgia. may manufacture her
own cotton goods for home wear. They
also propose to erect cotton seed oil
mills and fertilizer factories, either az
Manzanillo or Santiago de Cuba.
