Follow Lincoln's words of wis

When you have dyspepsia, indiges-
ton or anyform of stomach trouble
you can eat what you want and eat
heartily if you take Kodol. Starva-
ton seems a strange remedy for
any disease: yet starvation by Wig

sorted to in case of indigestion or
other stomach trouble. Even yet it
is sometimes tried. Such a remedy
is worse than useless.

When the stomach cannot do its
work the task must be performed
for the stomach. Kodol is the only
preparation that does this. Any
one who wants a healthy stomach
can have it. Merely take care of
the stomach when it is working
properly and take Kodol when it
commences to go wrong. Kodol will
find the weak spot. Kodol is the

It is up to the fans to get straight |
on this point at once and learn that
President Justice has not thrown out
both games and it is further impossi-
bic to sight any reason why the Cen
trail Association executive should be in
any hurry about taking such action.
The circumstances in the case are
worthy of thorough investigation
and how the question of throwing out
the games the day after they were
played with the evidence on hand at
the present time should have been a
distant one and not at all subject
for immediate action.
President Justice is the one to take
such action, although he was strong
ly convinced that he should declare
the contests illegal. Up to the time
The Gate City went to press he had
made no positive statement to rep
resentative of this paper that the
games had been thrown out, and to-
day thoroughly reconsidered the mat
ter.
His statement today is that no i'm
mediate action will be taken in throw.

Quincy protests hold good only the
game won by Keokuk can be thrown
out, thus forcing Keokuk to play ovel

1t would appear that the thing t
have done from the first news of pro

Merten,s Deal.

Quincy Herald: The Mertens deal
is still unsettled, but everything is
coming Quincy's way. Last Saturday
President Hofer wired to 6 :retary
Farrell stating the case and received
wire in return stating that the rules
covered the case perfectly and that
no other Class D club other than Quin-
cy had any claim on the player. Yes
terday President Justice was notified
by Secretary Farrell that Keokuk has
no right to use the man in its line
up and he SO informed Manager Belt.
In spite of this, Belt had Mertens in
the game and Jack clouted out five
hits out of six times at bat. Jack
was in town today, running down
this morning for visit with his
many Quincy friends. This does not
settle the case. however. Mertens,
although he can not be held by Keo-
kuk and can not play with any Class
D league team besides Quincy, re
verts beck to Des Moines and the
matter is now between Quincy and
that city. Quincy wants Mertens and
will pay what he is worth, but since
Des Moines was thwarted by Quincy
in making sale to Keokuk, it is not
known what the outcome will be
This much is certain, if Mertens is mo-
| permitted to become a member Of thu
Quincy team, he will not help keel
Keokuk ahead of Quincy in the pen
nant race. The games in which b,
participated will be thrown out al
Quincy did not give its consent to tn,
use OF Mertens. A few days ma,
elapse before anything definite i
done and the local management hope
that everything will come out al
. right and that the big popular playe
will wear Quincy uniform before tn
