was badly hurt. He rushed into a
clinch and pulled himself together In
short order. and showed his wonderful
vitality by carrying the fight to Packey
in vicious style during the remainder
of the round.
Packey had the better OF the next
three rounds and piled up additional
points in the fifth and sixth. He jab-
bed the eastern boy time and again, but
his blows seemed to lack the necessary
power for knockout.
Those at the ringside scored McFar-
land for not fighting harder when it
looked as though he was merely trying
to win on points, but he laughed and
told the crowd that Keyes was a hard
man to hit and q fellow with a danger
Gus wallop. Enough Of Keyes' hard
swings came close enough to Packey's
jaw to give him some respect for them.
The consensus of opinion OF those at
the bout was that Wolgast would have
a hard time holding the Chicago boy

BROWN BACK IN FORM
FOR PEnNAnI FIGHT
Chance Wires Mordecai Is
in Great Shape; Start
East Monday.

That Mordecai Brown will twist some
of his old-time three fingered curves
over the plate for the Cubs next sum-
mer was indicated in a telegram re-
ceived yesterday by President Murphy
of the West Side club. The message
came from Manager Frank Chance,
saying that he and Brownie, with Mrs.
Chance and Mrs. Brown. would defy all
the beliefs of supers tition and start
from California for Chicago next Mon
day, Feb. Is, the thirteen being the
supposedly unlucky omen Then tack
ed onto the message were few words
saying that Brown was in great shape
and expected another of his successful
seasons
There was considerable talk about
town last fall that Brownie was going
back; that he was not the pitcher of
old, and that the reign of the Cubs
was likely to fall more for that reason
than any other. Just those few en-
couraging words from Manager Chance
regarding his principal slabman has
raised high hopes with President Muir
ply and will star the West Side fans
more than anything else. for Brown has
been their idol for five years and they
want to see him rule for another five.

aside long enough to remember who
he is.

kind of stage fright the minute he ap-

idea what he wanted to say than IL he
had never been christened. At a

time to waste on imbeciles, so | asked
him to step aside and give the rest of
the folks chance. Before he could

They Never Have Headache, Bilious.
ness, Sluggish, Inactive Bowels or
a Bad Stomach to Make Them
Miserable.

A million boxes month. That's the
sale of Cascarets. and every tablet in
every box means day of good cheer.
Think what a world of happiness this
candy laxative has brought to men
and women-also the children. Are
you getting your share?
Cascarets cure bowel troubles when
they have developed. But that is the
least of their uses. Their best service
is to prevent the many ills that come
from inactive bowels. Think of the
days when you are not at your best.
The mornings when you don't feel
right, the afternoons when you are
logy, the evenings when you are irri-
table. The cause lies in the bowels.
One Cascaret makes everything diff
ferent. Don't say 'I'll take it tonight.
Take it at once. Garry a box in your
pocket. The hours before bedtime are
too good to be wasted. Cascarets are
gentle and pleasant. Their action is
as natural as the action of fruit on
the bowels. They are sold by all drug
gists at 10 cents per box.
