There was notning TO 1t Sunday
afternoon at Willott's Park bui
the Signals. They played the remnant
OF this years Mexico team and won
in gallop, the final score being {
to 0.
Moberly had taken no chances on
losing the deciding game Of the sea,
son with the Athletics and had Sc.
cured the service OF Barenkamp, OF
the st. Louis Ben Mlllers, the team
that finished in second place In the
Trolley League race. This twirler
made the lbest impression OF any
visiting pitcher who has been here
this year. He had a world OF speed,
good curves and splendid control The
visiting team being completely at biz
mercy and securing only three hits,
two Of them coming In one inning.
Not Mexico player got as far as
third base and two reached the second
and one of those should never
have gotten that far. In the last
inning Barrenkamp retired the Mex
ico boys by striking out three men,
His batting was also feature.
The Moberly boySlput up good game
and Schillings gave a demonstration
Of trying to make three bagger out

great deal Of fun for all who were
present
Arthur Butterfly was give a tryout
In the last inning of the contest and
showed up to advantage. The Mex
ico team was not as strong as it has
been in times past and while theiI
pitcher did nice work, the support he
received was very ragged. Housley,

Making Good.

There is no way OF making lasting
friends like 0Making GOod;n and Doctor
Pierce's medicines well exemplify this,
and their friends, after more than two
decades Of popularity, are numbered by
the hundreds OF thousands. They have
emade good" and they have not made
drunkards.
A good, honest, square-deal medicine OF
known composition Is DR.. Pierce's Golden
Medical Discovery. 1t still enjoys an i'm
mense sale, while most OF the prepara-
tions that have come into prominence In
the earlier period OF its popularity have
sgone by the board and are never more
heard OF. There must be some reason for
this long time popularity and that Is TO
be found In Its superior merits. When
once given fair trial for weak stomach,
or for liver aud blood affections, Its supe-
rior curative qualities are soon manifest;
hence 1t has survived and grown in pop
ular favor, while scores Of less meritorious
articles have suddenly flashed into favor
for brief period and then been as soon
forgotten.
For torpid liver with its attendant
Indigestion, dyspepsia, headache, per.
haps dizziness, foul breath, nasty coated
tongue, with bitter taste, loss of appetite,
with distress after eating, nervousness
and debility, nothing Is SO good as Or.
Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery. It's
an honest, square-deal medicine with all
its ingredients printed on bottle-wrapper
- no secret, no hocus-pocus humbug,
therefore don't accept q substitute that
the dealer may possibly make Q little big
ger profit. Insist on your right to have
what you call for.
Don't buy DIR. Pierce's Favorite Prescrlp-
ti0n expecting II to prove Ncure-all." It
Is only advised for woman's special all
ments. 1t makes weak women strong and
sick women well. Less advertised than
some preparations sold for like purposes,
its sterling curative virtues still maintain
its position In the front ranks, where 1t
stood over two decades ago. AS an In
vlgoratlng tonic and strengthening nerv-
ine 1t Is unequaled. 1t won't satisfy those
who want BOOZE" for there is not drop
of alcohol In 1t.
