How to Get Rid
of Catarrh.
A Simple, Safe, Reliable Way, and
1t Costs Nothing to Try.

Those who suffer from catarrh know
its miseries. There is no need of this
suffering. You can get rid of II by a
simple, safe. inexpensive. home treatment
discovered by DR.. BlOsser, who, for over
thirty-siX years. has been treating ca
tarrh successfully.
His treatment is unlike any other. It
is not a spray, dOUChe, salve, cream,
or inhaler, but is a more direct and
thorough treatment than any of these
1t cleans out the head, nose, throat, and
lungs so that you can again breathe
freely and sleep without that stopped
up feeling that all catarrh sufferers have
1t heals the diseased mucous membranes
and arrests the foul discharge, so that
you will not be constantly blowing your
nose and splitting, and at the same time
it does not poison the system and ruin
the stomach, as internal medicines do.
If you want to test this treatment with
out cost, send your address TO DR.. J. W.
Blosser, 261 Walton street, Atlanta, Ga,
and he will send you by return mail
enough of the medicine TO satisfy you
that it is all he claims for it as a
remedy for catarrh, catarrhal headaches,
catarrhal deafness, asthma, bronchitis,
colds, and all catarrhal complications
He will send you free an illustrated
booklet. Write him Immediately.

CURVE BALL NOT
OFTEN THROWN
Lobert Says Pitchers Depend
on Speedy Pitch.

Cincinnati, Dec. 15-If you ask a big
league ball player about the curves and
benders thrown by the various pitchers
he won't give forth a mine of informa-
ton. In tact, he is likely to tell you
that they don't really recognize such
things as curves any more. Said Hans
Lobert here: I'VE only figure on what
VIC call a straight ball and ball with a
hop on 1t. All the so-called curves are
included in the category of ball with a
hop on them Must of the apparently
wonderful curves are Just balls slanted
at the plate from a different angle. The
fade-away is a slow ball that is dropping
of its own weight. The in or out curves
are simply fast balls with a hop and
outsiders call them in or out curves,
mainly as they see left or right hand
ed batter facing them.
Here and there an occasional pitcher
tries all sorts of grating shoots, usually
to the detriment of his arm and the en-
largement of the base-on-balls record.
The veterans and even the wise young
sters. however, just rely on the fast
straight ball. thrown from different
angles, and hence seeming to curve, or
on the fast ball with a hop-a ball that
makes a little jump as it nears the plate
that's the so-called breaking of the
curve or on slow ones chucked like the
fast straight balls from different angles.
The big, wide curves that they used to
throw don't happen any more. Wingo

The grand jury also inquired into the
relation between the $1,000 paid monthly
to John Mcnamara by the International
Association of Bridge and Structural
Iron Workers for organizing purposes
and the fees given to McManigal-
An employe of a livery stable in Mum

McGraw, from Albany, Ind, to his store
house in Muncie by horse and wagon.
There were 100 quarts in the load, which
McManigal afterward confessed was used

Ten Reasons Why
You Should Send for Brooks Rup-
ture Appliance

]. It is absolutely the only Appliance
Of the kind on the market to-day, and in
II are Smbodied the principles that in
ventors have sought after for years.
2. The Appliance for retaining the
rupture cannot be thrown out Of posi-
tion.
q Being an air cushion Of soft rub
Der It clings closely to the body, yet
never blisters or causes irritation.
4. Unlike the ordinary so-called pads,
uIed IN other trusses, II Is not cumber-
me or ungainly.
5. 1t Is small, soft, and pIiabIe, and
positively cannot be detected through
the clothing.
6. The soft, pliable bands holding the
Appliance do not give one the unpleasant
sensation Of wearing a harness.
I. There is nothing about It to get
foul. and when II boomes soIled II can
be washed without inJuring II In the
least.
g. There are no metal springs in the
Appliance to torture one by cutting and
bruising the flesh.
8. All OF the material of which the
Appliances are made is Of the very best
that money can buy, making II a dur
able and safe Appliance to wear.
10. My reputation for honesty and fair
dealing IL so thoroughly established by
an experience Of over thirty years OF
dealing with the public, and my prices
are SO reasonable, my terms so fair that
there certainly should be no hesitancy In
sending free coupon to-day.

HARLAN'S PROTEGE
BXTOLS JUSTICE
Ex-Gov. Wilson Speaks at
Memorial Service. >

Members of the bar of the United
States Supreme. Court paid their tribute
yesterday to the memory Of the late
Justice John NJ. Harlan. Formal memo
rial exercises were held in the court
room. Former Gov. Wilson, of Kentucky,
presided over the meeting. He was a
former student in Justice Harlan's law
office in Kentucky, and had known him
for many years. He eulogized the life
of the late justice from the viewpoint
Of one who had known him in his per-
sonal relations to his fellow-man.
He walked and talked and lived and
toiled among the people as one Of them" >"
said Gov. Wilson, "set apart from them
only by the eminence of soul and body,
which made him a great and natural
leader of men by sheer force of his splen-
did gifts of charity and presenence."
The resolutions commemorative of the
life and public services of the late JUS
tice were reported by a committee OF
which Frederick w. Lehman, Solicitor
General. was chairman. The other mem
bers were Senator Bailey. Senator Root.
Senator Bradley. Lawrence Maxwell,
Henry E. Davis, Representative Sherley,
w. F. Mattingly, and Blackburn Ester
line. The resolutions were read by MIR.
Lehman. Among other things, they con-
tanned the following tribute:
For nearly thirty-four years he hon.
ored his high position by faithful dis
charge Of his duties. The record of his
service is to be found in 126 volumes OF
reported cases, in the determination of
which. with few exceptions, he partici-
pated. In 700 cases he wrote the opinion
of the court, and in many others he
wrote opinions, sometimes Of concur
renee. for reasons separately stated, and
sometimes of radical dissent. but whether
he spoke for others or only for himself.
and whether in assent or in dissent. il
was always in the language of honest
conviction"

General Senators Bailey and Bradley,

Anderson was one of the last to use q
roundhouse curve, and he couldn't get
control.
Drop curves, so-called, used to be
thrown with a Jerk that wore mans
arm all to pieces. Beyond doubt Bufting-
ton and Ramsay threw actual drop curves
that had speed on them, but the modern
pitcher simply fires q slanting ball from
overhead. Joe McGinnity was the last
man to throw a genuine curving raise
ball. Take 1t from me, there are very
few curves now used-a tiny jump OF
the rotating ball has supplanted them'
with the trick of throwing from and in
to the different angles. Just a straight ball
and ball with a hop on it-thats the
pitching of to-day"

Something Worth Knowing.

New York is reported to have
about 1900 bowling alleys. run
at an expense of about S40.425
per week. Estimating that there
are at least three times as many
alleys scattered, through the coun-
try as there are in New York
and vicinity, an expert in the
art of knocking down the ten
pins figures there would be 5000
alleys in the United States, main
tanned at daily expense of
$17,S25. or s121.275 a week.
Which, figuring further. would
total an annual expense of $6,-
306,300 a year, which proves that
bowling is a popular game. In
addition to city, State and inter
league Journeys each year, there
are big national Journeys held
in the East, West, and far West,
as well as on the Pacific Coast
and in Canada every year. for
which thousands of dollars are
awarded to contestants who
knock down the highest number
of pins in the single, two and
five men competitions.
