Talk on the Stomach

The stomach and digestive organs
are many times the cause Of some
disease which might have been pre-
vented II these organs had performed
their natural functions, and the great
variety Of symptoms which arise
from disordered condition Of the
stomach and liver, cause many people
to think that they have some awful
disease. The consequence of which
Is, that they do nothing for their
stomach, but doctor for some other
trouble. A poor acting stomach and
liver will cause headache, backache,
nervous troubles, distress after eat
ing, bloating, sour stomach, heart
pressure, insomnia, loss Of flesh,
constipation and many other dis
agreeable feelings. If you are
sufferer of any trouble and your
stomach or liver Is out OF order
correct these troubles first, get
the benefit Of the food you eat, aud
your other troubles will many times
correct themselves. Stomach Rite,
the combined stomach and liver REM
edy has an unequaled record Of
many remarkable cures to It's credit,
and when you need q stomach rem
edy, get the best, a remedy that
gives results, not promises, that's
Stomach-Rite. One 50 cent box will
quickly convince you Of the true
worth OF this medicine. There is
nothing Just as good, insist on
Stomach-Rite.
Very truly yours,

LOCALS Meet A BAD LUCK STREAK
Lose Two out Of Three to Whitmire-
Catcher Painter Joins the Team.

Abbeville team lost to Whitmire on
Wednesday through the fine twirling
of Benton, Whitmires star southpaw.
He held the local sluggers to one lone
hit and no scores. This hit was Sc
cured by Terrell Jones. Terrell OPP
posed Benton on the slab, and although
his arm was sore, pitched fine ball, al
lowing only three hits and one run.
But that run, although it was not
earned, was enough to beat him.
This game was one of the prettiest
that has ever been seen on these
grounds. o.
Thursdays game went to Whit
mire by a score of to /. Horn pitch
ed for Whitmire, and was hit freely,
but kept the hits so ~effectually scatter
ell that Abbeville was able to score but
once. Roy Jones pitched for Able
vile and up to the ninth inning there
was nothing doing in the run column.
1t looked like Abbeville's game but IN
this inning with one man down, VIII
liams got to first through an error,
and Nestit got a scratch hit. Wessin-
ger, Wbitmire's heaviest hitter hit to
right field and to all appearances was
thrown out at first, but the umpire
saw differently and the bases were full
with one down. Next batter up hit to
Perrin on'short who threw low to the
plate and two men scored.
Abbeville knocked the great Benton
out of the box on Friday, and Davis,
who replaced him, Jared no better.
Abbeville got 81 hits and II scores,
Whitmire got 8 hits and no scores.
The game between Abbeville and
Greenwood resulted in a tie, 4 to 4.
Terrell Jones pitched his usual good
game, but the ball was wet and he
was a trifie wild. He allowed but 2
hits, while Abbeville got 5 off of Ora
ham. The game was very exciting
although loosely played. 'reenwood
scored three times in the second in
ming on a hit, a base-op-balls. a man
hit by pitched ball and thl-e errors,
and one in the ninth on a two.bagger,
a stolen base and a sacrifice. Watson
scored in the fourth inning for Able
vile. Abbeville made the other three
in the ninth with two out by a hit by
Jones, a hit lin the back on McCarter
four stolen bases and an error. With
two men down, Terrell Jones at bat,
and the score tied, the Greenwood
team left the grounds, 1t could not be
a~scertained for what reason.

SampIeIess Salesman.

There were halfa dozen drummers
on the train and they were talking
about another drummer who travelled
in the same territory with themselves.
One of them said: "He's straight.
He's a Christian. Whatever he tells
you about an article you may know it
is just so. He can 60 all over his ter
ritory without a single sample, and
sell cooks to every mai he calls on,
His words makes samples pnpeces-
sary.
All the others said, "That's 20,

successful competitor. They fel t no

the latter.
