''TIM" HURST. IS
 NOT IN DEMAND

>. It is reported that Tim Hurst will not be reappo:nted to the Eastern Leagues umpire staff by President Barrow. .> It is said that several of the club owners have found fault with Hurst because of lax, methods and have demanded a change Hurst was removed from the American. league staff by President Johnson because of an altercati ton. with Eddie Collins in Philadelphia Johnson also did not relish the way Timothy made out his official reports of disordecly' incidents or the bail field. Tt is ,fnprobable that President Lynch of. the National lea que will engage Hurst, because Garry Hermann is said to nurse an old grudge, so that with no chance to re- tu:n to the Eastern league the veter- an umpire may find himself, out in the cold. But whatever may be said of Hurts enforcement of the rules there has never been a doubt as to his honesty. His fearlessness Is well known as a referee of big glove con- tests involving thousands of dollars he has always enjoyed the confidence oe the sporting public.

Husky GrappIers Who Are to Meet Here "Wednesday Are COntenders For the Title

Not mitch stock is taken by the wrestlers of the country in the giv- ing up of the heavyweight crown by Frank Gotch and placing it upon the brow of Youssif Mahmout The wrestlers believe that Gotch, his man. ager, Farmer Burns. and Mahrnout are in league with each other, and are just working up interest to such an extent that Gotch will make a re-entry in the ring and Wrest the title. If Gotch had picked out Hackenschmidt or Zbyszko. or Nogert. the former two having tossed Mahmout without effort a couple of times. there might be some reason in the presentation.
 None of the big fellows are consid- eang the big Turk seriously. however. He has been eliminated by his defeats by both Hack and the husky Pole, while the experts add that Nogert, who has just arrived in this country from South Africa to get a hand in the pie, would have an easy time with the Turk. The only matches in sight worth while, with Gotch on the Te- tired list. are those between Hacken- schmidt, Zbyszko and Nogert

A trial package of Munyon's Paw Paw
Pills viii be sent free to anyone on re-
quest. Address Professor Munyon 53d l.
tefferpon Sts., Philadelphia, Pa. If you are
IN need of medical advice, do not fail to
write Professor Munyon. Your communi-
cation will be treated in strict confidence,
and your case will be diagnosed as care
fully as though you had personal inter
view.
Munyon's Paw Paw Pills are unlike
coax the liver into activity by gentle
methods. They do not scour, they do
not grippe they do not weaken, but they
do stsh all the secretions of the liver
and stomach in way that soon puts
these organs in healthy condition and
corrects constipation. In my opinion
constipation is responsible for most all
ments. There are 26 feet of human
bowels, which is really a sewer pipe.
When this pipe becomes clogged the
whole system becomes poisoned, caus-
ing biliousness, indigestion and impure
blood, which often produce rheumatism
and kidney ailments. No woman who
suffers with constipation or any liver
ailinent can expect to have a clear
complexion or enjoy good health. If
I had my way I would prohibit the sale
of ninetenths of the cathartics that are
now being sold for the reason that they
soon destroy the lining of the stomach,
setting up serious forms of indigestion,
and so paralyze the bowels that they re-
fuse to act unless forced by strong
purgatives.
Munyon's Paw Paw Pills are tonic
to the stomach, liver and nerves. They
invigorate instead of weaken; they en-
rich the blood instead of impoverish
It, they enable the stomach to get all
the nourishment from food that is put
Into it.
These pills contain no calomel, no
dope; they are soothing, healing and
stimulating. They school the bowels
to act without physic.
