Manager Dahlen of the Brooklyns will
make very few experiments. He has a lot
OF seasoned players and believes that sue
cess depends chiefly on the perfection OF
team play. The Brooklyns have a powerful
pitching staff in Nap Rucker, the star left
handler for whom President Ebbets says
he would not take S25, 900; Harry Mcintyre,
Doc Scanlon, Bell, Hunter, Wilhelm and
Cy Barger, who helped to win the Eastern
league pennant for Rochester last season.
Bell the confidence of Dahlen,
who says he will be one of the National
leagues greatest pitchers this season.
In Bergen, who caught 12 games in
1909. the Brooklyns have an able back
stop, but they also have a good man In
Erwin from Rochester, the leading catcher
in the Eastern league last year. Not only
a good batsman, Erwin caught eighty
seven games for the champion Rochesters,
having eight passed balls and a fielding
average Of 1853. He Is a fine thrower to
bases and possesses a head filled with
base ball brains. II Tim Jordan, the big
first baseman, finds that his legs bother
him or he meets with an accident, Dahlen
has a substitute in Daubert from the Mem
phls Southern league club. This young
man led the league in batting last year
with an average of .314, making eighty
nine hits for a total Of 17 bases in eighty
one games. He also led the first basemen
in fielding with 1896, making only four err
rors.
1t is probable that Hummel, the crack
utility player, will cover second base reg
ularly, as Dahlen has been unable to make
a deal for a new man. Lennox will be al
third base and he is one of the best ir
the big leagues. 1t is just possible tina
Dahlen may play shortstop himself unless
Mcmillan improves in his stick work, al
though the manager prefers to direct thu
play from the bench and the coaching
lines.
In the outfleld Wheat, Burch and Lum
ley look like fixtures and they appear t.
be an excellent combination. Wheat, wht
was purchased from the Mobile club las
fall, made an instant hit with the Brook
lyn fans by his heavy batting and genera
play. In fact, he was regarded as a rea
find and he is expected to be one of tn
teams best men this year. This will b.
Dahlen's first experience as a manage
He has had wide experience as a playe
under Arson, McGraw and Hanlon. H
Is aggressive, headstrong and believes tina
he must be the boss, President Ebbet
has unbounded faith in his ability and ha
given full authority to him to handle tn,
Rrooklyns as he sees fit. The Brooklyn
teams batting and fielding averages o
last year follow:

100000 Ruptured People
Relieved and Cured
During 40 Years Experience

without interference with their work
or business, nearly 100000 people have
been benefited and cured by the Cluthe
Truss-the truss which automatically
gives a soothing, strengthening, healing,
massage treatment.
They all wore 1t on trial. Wore it at
our risk-on our absolute guarantee.
Some OF the ruptures cured by the
Cluthe Truss with Automatic Massage
Treatment were the worst cases in his
tory.
Among them men and women over 20
and 80 years Old. People who had been
ruptured from 20 to 20 years.
The Cluthe Truss Is the only thing
under the sur save an operation hat
can possibly cure a rupture.
But operations, as you know are more
often fatal than successful. And oper-
atoms are always dangerous.
The surgeons knife kills or perms-
nently weakens fully as often as 1t
cures.
Our Free Trial Guarantee.
We guarantee that the Cluthe Truss
will keep your rupture always In place
every minute that you nave II on.
No matter how bad your rupture-uO
matter how hard you work. NO strain
can force your rupture out
II the Cluthe Truss fails to tultlll
this guarantee. II won't cost you "a
single cent,
Nothing Else Like IL.
Don't him that the Clutne Truss with
Automatic Massage Treatment Is in any
way like the trusses you have hereto
fore worn.
This truss has no belt, no leg straps
no springs. no harness OF any kind
whatever. Nothing at all uncomfortable.
And II has Automatic Holding Pads.
Ihey are ser aoJustlng 70 every move
! them away from the rupture opening.
These Holding Pads automatically
give a wonderfully beneficial massage
treatment.
This soothing, healing massage acts
on the weakened muscles at the rupture
opening, like exercise on the arms and
legs-it gradually exercises these mus
Giles back into strength.
That IL how the cluthe Truss cures,
even after everything else has failed.
