 MT. Philip Loos, travelling represent ative of the Indiana Drug Goods Co.,. of Indianapolis, called and shook hands with Gray yesterday. In the course of his conversation he acknowledged that for many years he suffered with se- we're case of catarrh of the head. He could feel the mucus drop from his head into his throat, and every day, especially in the morning, he would spit out chunks of phlegm. He also had a constant roaring, buzzing sound in his ears. After using only three bottles of Quaker Herb Extract and two bottles of oil of Balm all of his troubles left him. Wherever he travels now he does not fail to tell people of his remarkable cure of catarrh by the Quaker Herb Remedies. Gray will furnish a bottle of Quaker free to any one having tapeworm to prove the power of Quaker. Call and see the dsplay of worms in the window.
 Call on Gray today. It costs nothing to talk with him. He proves what ht says.

MEMPHIS WILL HAVE
 AVIATION MEETING

Memphis, March H.--A national avia- tion meet has been arranged for April 6. ', and here, at which Glenn Cur tiss, his assistant, Charles Hamilton, and Charles Willard will be the principal operators of aeroplanes. The aviators have promised to try to establish new records for height and distance.
 Considerable interest is attached to this meet, because it is the first aeroplane meet sanctioned by the national body to take place east of Arizona. The other meets were at Phoenix and Los Angeles. The big meet at St. Louis several years ago was confined to balloons and diri- gibles. Only heavier-than-air machines will be eligible here.
 In addition to the aeroplane races there will be races between the flying machines and automobiles and between aeroplanes and motorcycles.
 Non-partisan judges from other cities with the latest mechanical instruments for measuring the height and distance tfaveled by the aeroplanes will offlciate. An aero club has been organized and admitted to the membership of the Aero Club of. America, so that the records made will be official.

MANAGER zGREMINGER HAS
 GOOD BASEBALL MATERIAL
By HERyEY ". LAIRD

Montgomery, March 27.-(Special.)- Every new man on the Montgomery team gives promise. though all of them pany that will be feature of the South ern league this season. It is certain, however, that the local bunch of recruits Is a hefty set and if several fast ones come out of it there will be no sur prise.
 Take Pratt. the young third baseman, breaking into professional company this year for the first time. He plays third like an old man. gets over ground like lightning and runs forward for bunts in a way to make the manager feel conf dent At the bat he stands up close and smashes the ball right out having none of the feeling of fear often part of a young fellow.
 Young Smith, from the county of Bull lock, in the state of Alabama, is another kid with his first big company clothes on, He has a good curve, throws a hard ball and knows how to use his head. He has really heen surprise to the man agement. Harry Thomas, brother of the doctor. is showing speed, some good curves and 8 judgment, while Vickery and McCreery are not far enough along to tell much about them.
 Molly, who is a Montgomery boy. is already up to fast company class and will have no trouble in holding his own with the good ones. He was drafted from Wheeling last season, having played with Mobile
 Phillips, who comes from the Ohio and Pennsylvania league. is showing himself to be a great outfelder. He gets under anything and when it comes to stick work he is there with the goods. A fea- fure of his batting is the long hitting he does.
 Miller. weight 190 pounds is showing class not only as catcher, but an infielder. He handles the pitchers like an old man. Gribben is also good behind the bat and knows what to do to help the pitcher He plays in or outfield with success either of them being good for utility men.

New York, March 27.-Nineteen days more and Mars Cassidy will spring the barrfer for the Carter handicap at Aque- duct, thereby inaugurating the Metro politan horse racing season of 1910. Thence onward, throughout the spring, summer and fall, and until nearly time for the snow to fall again, turf enthusiasts will have five days of racing weekly at the local tracks, except for a portion of the month of August, when the scene of operations will be transferred to Sara foga The season will open at Aqueduct April 16, and close at the same course November 15.
 The Jockey club officials are predicting a splendid season. a sort of rejuvenation of the turf from the blight that fell upon it by reason of the passage of the Hart Agnew anti-betting laws two seasons ago. Court decisions have been rendered mean time which prescribe the manner in which a wager may be laid, and it is said that this year the various racing associations will police their tracks so as to render impossible the business of bookmaking.

Greminger is going to have a hard job weeding down his outheld. If any man knows better prospects for this territory than Whiteman and Daley of last years team he has kept 1t secret. and with them have come Burnett and Phillips new men, the latter from Spokane. Take each man and size him up and he has no real superior in the league. But at least one must go.
 Of the old pitching staff there are Juul, Thomas and Guese, all in fine shape. Juul and Thomas ought to be the best of their lives this year. With them is Duggleby a National league man, who is certain to be as fast as many men in the league Hence the pitching staff is fine, and there is going to be a man or two that will be a good pickup for any team.
 Hart, the hard worker and star hitter is back and In shape for the best year of his life. He will be the standby for backstop and looks like he will make the best hitter in the league again.
 Pope. now a married man, will have every incentive to be a better man than last year, and he looks hopeful along this line. Champ Osteen is going to be at second and promises well, while Grem- finger will try to hold down the first sack, as of old.
 There are some changes possible. In what seems now the remote possibility that Pratt would not be able to hold third. Osteen would have to go there. This would bring Burnett from the out field or Gribben from behind the bat. However, there is little prospect of this failure.
 There are 21 men left, Van Hummer, the Kansas City pitcher, having skipped out for home following a case of home sickness The team must get down to 14 and in a few days the weeding out process will begin.
 There are three men that look to be big league prospects this year. They are Whiteman, Juul and Pratt. Of course Pratt, who is a lad in experience, may find it hard to keep fast company, but a good judge of baseball dopes it out that the three are going to be the sensations of baseball in this part of the league this year.

Lancaster Now Center For American
Wild Animal Trade.
There is one place in Missouri where
the honk-honk of the motorcar is but
rarely heard and where no such de
vices are owned. The people of Ian
caster don't take much interest in buzz
wagons. because the horse. the Mis-

and the like are their stock in trade.
lancaster is the headquarters of the
biggest individual horse dealer and
circus outfitter in America Billy Hall

ness brings more money to Lancaster
than half a dozen factories. To turn
a buzz wagon loose on the streets of
Lancaster would be an affront to the
Industry which has made the place
noted, because horses and motors don't
travel well together.
Mr.. Hall made one season as the pro-
prietor of a big three ring circus and

A Fish Story.

Speaking of the cost of living, and
this is subject of daily conversation in
every family circle, it is noted that,
while not many years ago it was diff
cult to sell a swordfish outside of the
Boston market, this season it is diff
cult to get enough to meet the demand.
AS a result the cost of this once diff
cult-to-dospose-of fish has increased
and the supply does not equal the de-
mand. One reason assigned for this
alleged scarcity is that the submarine
bells have frightened the big fish off
their accustomed grounds, which
grounds, by the way, are water. 1t
appears now that within couple Of
days a swordfish weighing $50 pounds
was brought into Boston and sold at
% cents pound right off the boat, the
retailer to get his profit later
Possibly a swordfish trust has been
organized, to prevent the people from
economizing. Fish of any kind must
not interfere with the profits of the
beef trust and other trusts. The cost
of living must be kept high up.

Fake Hospitality VS.. True Hospitality

Fake Hospitality VS.. True Hospitality
! 4 curious case came to light in
Milwaukee a few days ago, when a
ycEng husband and wife who had
| been making themselves comforta-
bic at the home of the latter's
cousin were hailed into court and
shown a bill for board and lodg-
ing for two weeks. The plaintin
cl2imed that the young people hao
thrust themselves upon her without
an Invitation and that they were no
more exempt from payment than
any stranger would have been I'M
der the same circumstances. In re-
ply the defendants stated that they
had a standing invitation at the
cousins home, the assurance of well
come haying been transmitted to
them as an heirloom from the brides
aunt.
The case suggests a state of affairs
which obtains in THE land today.
Many people issue invitations broad
cast, but they do it merely as a
matter of duty or to show apparent
good will, each being accompanied
with an inaudible prayer that the
recipient may not take advantage
of 1t.
Many others really entertain their
guests and try to seem hospitable
when they are really lacking in the
true spirit They do everything that
lies in their power to make 1t pleas
ant for those who have crossed
their threshold, yet it is merely
going through the motions. host
may seem ever so kind and spend
g eat deal of time on his guests and
yet not be truly hospitable. Here we
should remember what Lowell says:
Not what we give, but what we
share,
