LINE UP FOR INITIAL GAME.

CHIEF Lloyd Is giving his In
dians a diet OF practice and the In
ldians are showing up in geat form.
Every mogfng and afternoon light
work is irhkilged in, and every parti-
Gle of soreness has gotten out Of the
PLAYERS. They will be in excellent
trim for the opening game. barring
any accidents which may happen in
the meantime.
McClain can now use his left hand
without pain. The swelling has
about gone down and the little fielder
is ready for the fray.
Chief Lloyd has stated that he
will probably send Weldon South to
pitch the first game. South is in
excellent condition. and has got a
great deal more steam this year than
he had last. He seems to have per
feet control, too, aud South bids falr
to be the Indians star twirler.
The team will line up as foNows
for the initiai gsme:
McClain. IT,; Taylor. cf,; Miller
RI; wetzei, 3d.; Haas. ib.; Ghligdn,
2b.; Perry, S.; Chenault or Nippert,
c. South or Tadlock,p.
Lloyd has said nothing about the
opening day. butt Is presumed some
kind OF demonstration will be made.
There wiz be the usual parade with
possibly a band, and the Indians will
probably be followed to the park by
one of the largest crowds of the sea
son, the weather permitting.

Buried deep in our American forests,
many wears ago, DIR. Pierce found a
beautiful, blooming plant the root Of
which possesses wonderfully eificacious
properties as a stomach and neral
tonic. also as an Alternative blood
purifier and liver invigor ..aving an
especial affinity for all 'us surfaces
upon which il exerts a most salutary,
soothing and fealing influence.
This sturdy little plant is known 10
boianisis as nydrastis Canadensis, but
has several local English names, being
generally known as Golden Seal. Ut.
Pierce found the root of this common
forest plant to possess medicinal prin-
ciples OF great potency, especially when
combined, in just the right proportions,
with Queens root, Black ,Nherrybark, (,
Stone root, Mandrake rood aud Blood
root. the properties of each seint ex-
tsacted and preserved in ctemir'lly
pure glycerine OF proper stWngth. i.
This compound DIR. Pierce named
his vGolden Medical Discovery" in
honor of the sturdy little Golden Seal
plant. So little used was the root OF
This plant by the medical profession at
that time, that il could be purchased
in the open markets for from fifteen
cents 20 twenty cents pound. The
use OF many tons of this root every

cines-for il enters into both "Golden
