AFTER THE BOY WONDER.
Big Leaguers Want Bedient, Who
Made Great Pitching Record.

New York, Aug. 5.-A boy eighteen
years old holds the worlds strike-out
record, and several of the major
league managers are reported to be
bidding for hts services.
The wonder, Hugh Bedient of Fall
coner. n. Y, who while pitching for
the Faiconer semi-professional base
ball team in a game with the Cory,
Pa, nine struck out rorry-two Cory
batsmen in twenty-three innings.
A marvellous feature of Bedient's
performance was his feat in the
twenty third inning, when. after his
team had scored two runs. he struck
out the three Cory players who faced
him, giving his team the victory by
a score of to 1. He. allowed but six
hits in the twenty-three innings.
Bedient is eighteen years old, big
and muscular. In 1906, pitching for
the Falconer High school team, he
averaged sixteen strike-outs per game
for twenty games. In 1907 he pitched
great ball for jamestown, n. Y, Fal-
coner and the Drydocks, a Buffalo
semi-professional team. He has done
phenomenal work for Falconer all
this season. Bedient has great speed.
good control. plenty of curves and uses
his head to advantage. He is a fair
hitter and base runner.

Scientists Talk Of the Eath'S Years, ;

Professor Darwin, of England, de-
clared, some time ego, his belief that
The age of, the earth cannot be less
than one hundred millions of years
old. F'lammarion tells us now that
this estimate is too low by at least fif-
ty millions of years. The late Lord
Kelvin declared soon before his death
that his former estimate-10, 900, 900
years--was far too low, and that the
more he studied the question the more
strongly inclined he was to accept the
estimate of Professor Darwin. Final
ly, Fournier feels convinced that the
eyertful estimate which shall be
proven to be scientifically accurate
will show that the earth must be at
least as old as the son OF the great
Darwin declares 1t 30 be.
The proof which has upset the COM
monBibEcal affirmation of 5000 years
as being the age of the earth is found
beyond the possibility of controversy,
in the examination OF geological stra-
ia. The great geobogist, Lyall, was
the first TO apply the petric test, and
his experiments demonstrated beyond
cavil that the time that must have
elapsed between the beginning of the
cooling process of the fragment OF
the sun which we now inhabit and the
formation of the outer strata must
have been at least several millions
q years. Modern criteria have chang
ed all calculations which were made
previously to the new declarations
made by Darwin and Hardness, the
age of petric strata being now quite as
easily and as accurately determine
BILE as the age of trees, or as the age
of disinterred human bones.
AS to the length of time the earth is
likely to last, the calculations are
that it will not cease to be active for
a good many millions of years, such
activity, not, however, necessarily sup
posing that life, as We know it now,
will always be possible, the eventual
ity of a universal ice-age, being al
ways a contingency that my occur
again in the history of the globe.
Ii is interesting to note that in this
connection a Swedish mystic called
Stromberg recently declared that the
world would never know another ice
age, but that it WIS NOW running out
its course to the end.

The Farmers Wife

Is very careful about her churn. She
scalds IL thoroughly after using, and gives
1t a sun bath to sweeten 1t. She knows
that IL her churn is sour 1t will faint the
butter that is made in it. The stomach is
a churn. In the stomach and digestive
and nutritive tracts are performed pro-
cesses which are almost exactly like the
churning OF butter. Is 1t not apparent
then that II this stomach-churn is foul 1t
makes foul all which is put into It?
The evil Of foul stomach is not alone
the bad taste In the mouth and the foul
breath caused by 1t, but the corruption Of
the pure current OF blood and the dissem-
ination OF disease throughout the body.
DR.. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery
makes the sour and foul stomach sweet.
1t does for the stomach what the washing
and sun bath do for the churn-abSolutely
removes every tainting or corrupting ele-
ment. In this way 1t cures blotches,
pimples, eruptions, scrofulous swellings,
sores, or open eating ulcers and all
humors or diseases arising from bad blood.
II you have bitter nasty, foul taste in
your mouth, coated tongue, foul breath,
are weak and easily tired, feel depressed
and respondent, have frequent headaches,
dizzy attacks, gnawing or distress in stom-
ach, constirated or irregular bowels, sour
or bitter risings after eating and poor
appetite, these symptoms, or any consider
able number Of them, indicate that you are
suffering from bfliousness, torpid or lazy
liver with the usual accompanying indi-
gestion, or dyspepsia and their attendant
arrangements.
