symptoms of deeper ailment. Don't
make the common error oftreatine SYM

ing the result of your aiment, and not
the cause. Weak stomach nerves--the

ness, always. And the heart and kid.
neys as well, have their controlling or
inside nerves. Weaken these nerves,
and you inevitably have weak vital or

Our bali team went to Pringle last
Sunday and returned with a scalp. The
story of the game is perhaps as well
told by the score, 80 to 6, as by any
description. 1t is sufficient to say that
our boys simply played their opponents
off their feet, proving themselves su-
perior in every part of the game. We
understand that the Pringle boys are
seeking revenge, and will appear on the
local diamond tomorrow with team
strengthened by the addition of a first
grade pitcher. The game will doubtless be
interesting, and as the boys are rustling
hard this year, everyone should turn
out and secure seat in the grandstand,
thereby giving both financial and moral
support.
