pairing their programs. They state that
the special attractions of this years fair
will surpass anything that has been

Let the Public Decide.

The so called fats have seen fit to eX-
cite their skill as ball players in the
newspapers rather than on the diamond
Fearing defeat they are ready making
excuses for their downfall even before
the game. Regarding the uncalled for
article in this weeks Tribune the leans
wish it known that the fats hailed with
Joy another opportunity to have a
chance to play with the leans again
when the idea was brOached to play a
game for the benefit of our old band.
Up to this time they haven't had the
nerve to ask the leans for another game
so decisely have they been beat in past
years but knowing as they did how
ready the leans would be to do anything
to keep our band with us they immedl-
ately began to tell what fine ball play
ers they were. On past performances
we believe the public will agree with
us that the fates are the rankest kind OF
bush leaguers and really are not entitled
to game with the leans on their past
showing, and if it wasn't for the sake Of
the band the leans would refuse to meet
them on the diamond until they showed
some improvement in form.
However the leans have stood for
fair dealing in the past and their stand
ard is just as high now as then. We
will adide by the decision of Mr.. j. j.
Kuelling who will oficiate as umpire
knowing that his association with the
square deal and full dinner pail in
Washington so long will compel him to
make his decision fair to all.
1t would be foolish indeed to believe
that Mr.. Kuelling could be bought by

Healthy Kidneys Necessary

A good many people suffer with back
ache every morning. They think they
have lain in a cramped position or
caupbt cold. More than likely its due
to their kidneys. 1t may not be serious
at all, except as it tends to become
cbronic-then SERIOUS.
The best thing to do is to take some
good kidney medicine such for instance
as Nyals Kidney Pills. They are the
best kidney pills we have ever had.
They benefit the kidneys, help them
cleanse the blood current from poison
GUS uric acid and do away with the
backache quickly.
Nyal's Stone Root Compound is good
too if you prefer liquid medicine.
