DOCTORS DAUGHTER"
A Woman and a Medicine that
Have Made good.

Almost two years ago when Doctor $
Daughter first put forth her medicine
on the market few would have dared
predict the wonderful sale which It has
met with.
Starting with practically unknown prep
aration but rightly naming it Stomach
Rite, Doctor Daughter made tour Of
New England, stopping at the leading
drug stores in the large cities, where she
met the people and introduced her medi-
cine.
Her implicit faith was soon rewarded,
for people who tried the remedy finding
that it did the work, and was all that it
was represented to be, told their friends,
and so on, until now Stomach-Rite is
rated the leading and largest selling
medicine Of its kind In New England,
while mail orders are sent to Europe,
Canada, our Island possessions, and all
over the United States.
Those who remember the kind Of
treatment and medicine given out by
Doctors Daughters father, Dr. John
Wilbur, and grandfather, DIR. William
Il. Wilbur, will easily understand why
stomach-Rfte Sells. The quality isthere.

Paul. Friday ne made three hits and
accepted IA chances without a slip.
Worcester has chance TO win the
pennant in The New England league. IL
Is in this place now, but Il has the
batters who may cause such a whirlwind
finish as last year. Five Of them are
.270 or better, with Burkett leading
the pace at 1888.
Big league pcnnant races are nearly
over. The Athletics are strong enough
20 maintain their big lead in the Amer
lean league, while Chicago is plugging
along good enough for first place IN the
National league. The Cubs, however,
are not yet out Of the woods.
II is said that Tex Richard Of Nevada
Is at the head Of the project TO take
two all-American baseball teams on a
tour 81 this country just as the league
season Is over. A club composed Of
National league players viii play

Corbett were reported as hurying the

eongratulating the colored one after the
fight.
Philadelphia has beaten Washington
and Detroit nine times each this season,
and has won ten or more games from
every other team.
Pitcher Gilligan, who was turned back
10 the St. Louis Americans by Toledo,
has been bought by Milwaukee.
Steven Brodie, who jumped Off the
Brooklyn bridge the other day, is not

Out West there has been a rumor
that Eddie Foster will not be with the
Yankees next year. New York fans per-
sistently deny the report They figure
that Little Eddie" viii be worth as
much 70 their team as Owen Bush is to
the Tigers.
Jack WARRIOR has been the tough.Iuck
pitcher Of the New York Americans
this year.
The Springfield Republican sums up
the situation thus, should the present
leaders IN the major leagues maintain
their position until the end Of the sea-
son; The Athletics look the better
to win. Bender, Coomhs and Morgan
are better than Cole. Brown or Reulbach.
Cole is wonder, Brown and Ruelhaen
were. Overall has been OF little use,
while Richie aud Foxen are Just fair.
Connie Mack has Plank in reserve Chi
cago is much better in catching, while
the indelds are about even Chance,
Eyers, Tinker and Steinfeldt have PLAYED
together longer than Davis, Collins. Bar

Davis. Eyefs is better fielder and
knows more baseball tnan Collins. but
the latter has the advantage ID hitting

batter than Barry, but in fielding they
are about the same Steinfeldt is surer
