TWELVE INNINGS.
VIM. r. Smith Team Whips the Con>

At the Green street diamond, yester-
day, an interesting and exciting game
of ball was played between the VIM.
r. Smith team and the Cony Second,
known as The Pines. 1t took II in
nings to decide which team should bear
the banner of victory and there was a
nip and tuck fight from start to finish

the other getting the advantage. AT
the close of The ninth even innings the
score was II to -, and three more
innings had to be played to determine
the winner. Both teams were white

18th inning both made a score, but still
at the end the game was tied, 10 to 10.
In the 18th inning Smith got in its
|Wolk,ssSilver scoring one run. The Pines
failed to make good, and the Smiths
were declared the victors, IA to 10.
The Smiths lined up as follows:

CURES CATARRH.
"Hyomei the Most Wonderful Cure for
Catarrh Ever Discovered" Says
Mayor Yard.

Do not try to cure catarrh by taking
drugs into the stomach: it cannot be
cured in that manner. The only way
in which this too common disease can
be cured is through a direct application
that will kill the bacilli of catarrh and
prevent their growth.
Hyomei is the only known method of
treatment that accomplishes this. 1t is
the simplest, most pleasant, and the
only absolute cure for catarrh that has
ever been discovered.
Thousands of unsolicited testimonials
have been received from the most
prominent men and women in the
country who have been cured by this
remarkable remedy Ministers, bank
ers. lawyers even eminent physicians
have sent strong testimonials as to the
remarkable powers of Hyomei to cure
catarrh.
Former Mayor Emory NJ. Yard of
Trenton. n. j., writes: you have my
permission to say that l believe Hy-
Omei to be one of the most wonderful
cures for catarrh and throat trouble
that has ever been discovered. In my
case the effect has been marvellous. l
enclose you money order for two out
fits for friends of mine to whom L have
recommended 'Hyomei and who | am
anxious shall have the benefit of this
remarkable panacea."
The complete Hyomei outfit costs but
$1.0O, consisting of an inhaler, dropper
and sufficient Hyomei to last over a
month. Extra, bottles of Hyomei
Ga months treatmenD can be OBJ
tanned for so cents. 1t is not alone
the best Git might be called the only
method of curing catarrh, but it is also
the most economical.
Percy w. Means and Bowditch &
Webster have so much confidence in the
power of Hyomei to cure catarrh, that
they will for a limited time, sell this
medicine under their personal guaran-
chasers can say that it did not hell
tee to refund the money if the pur-
them. -.

Here is little quiet sarcasm from
the Brunswick Record at the expense
of the Augusta golf players. 1t says:
"fhe Augusta Golf Club failed to send
its team to Brunswick, Wednesday, for
the match game scheduled on that date
with the Brunswick team. A letter was
received Wednesday morning by B. l..
Furnish. the secretary, giving notice at
the last moment that the Augusta men
could not appear. The excuse was that
one of the best players was unable to
come on that date. Another had on
Tuesday afternoon while practicing
broken his cheek. Thus they found it
quite impossible to get team together.
The letter stated that they would like
to arrange game for June or 3. 1t
suspected here that the Augusta golfers
are somewhat timid about meeting the
Brunswick players

Edward Grady. driver of the big de-
livery team of the Standard Oil Co. has
an unique arrangement for keeping ac-
count of the number of gallons of oil he
draws to fill orders for customers. 1t
is of his own invention and very sim
pie. He has a small board fastened to
the end of the cart in which have been
bored 20 holes He uses a plug and
moves this plug every time he fills the
two 5-gallon cans which he uses. Each
hole represents 10 gallons. He says
the plug tells the story accurately, for
he has the system down so fine that
there is never any danger of his neg
lecting to move the plug along after he
has filled the cans. AS soon -- as he
turns off the oil and starts to pour the
contents into the receptacle he changes
the location of the peg and adds to
the income of the company just so
much,
