great organization and will do good
work on the lot Sunday. They ex-
pect to have a share in the game but
the local lads will try to put them out
Of business from the beginning Of
the game. The locals are specialize

up that has been doing all the good
work and will show a good account
of themselves Sunday.

Keeping Bender Keyed Up

Ask the average baseball "fan" IL he
Knows Cornelius McGillicuddy, and he
will probably answer in the negative.
Ask him II he knows Connie Mack and
he is quick with the reply, Manager of
the Philadelphia American league base
ball team" Che Athletics)
In the American Magazine Henry
Beach Needham tells a number Of in
teresting stories about the maker of
last years worlds championship team.
One of which is on Bender, the great
Indian football player and pitcher. OF
him he writes:
Few baseball fans know that Ben
der the Indian, who did so much to win
the American league pennant, pitched
the season through for a yearly salary
Of about $1,000 beggarly wage for
30 luminous a star This is how 1t
happened: In the season of 1908 Ben
der did very poor work, and In the
spring OF 1909, conscious of his short
comings, he announced to the sporting
writer's that he was to quit baseball
and become road salesman. Seeing
McGillicuddy wrote Bender a pleasant
letter Of congratulation, thanking him
Tor his services to the Athletics, and
wishing him all good luck in his new
undertaking. Merely to comply with
the rules of the league, contract for
the new season was inclosed, calling for
q salary Of about $4,000. which was
much less than the Indian had received
In the preceding season. Within an
hour of the receipt Of this communica-
ton, Bender hurried into the offices of
the Philadelphia club and said:
THAT was all joke about my quit
ting baseball, Connie. I've got to earn
my living pitching ball.
"McGillicuddy nodded, with no show
Of enthusiasm, and said: That was
your real contract. I can't afford to
pay you any more money for the class
of ball you pitched last season. Now

DOCTOR PRESCRIBES
CUTICURA REMEDIES

II wish to let you know of couple
Of recent cures which I have made
by the use of the Cuticura Remedies.
Last August, Mr.. of this city
came to my office, troubled with a
severe skin eruption. 1t was dermatitis
In its worst form. 1t started with a
slight eruption and would affect most
parts of his body, thighs, elbows,
chest, back and abdomen--and would
terminate in little pustules. The itch.
ing and burning was dreadful and he
would almost tear his skin apart, try
ing to get relief. I recommended all
the various treatments I could think
Of and he spent about fifteen dollars
on prescriptions, but nothing seemed
to help him.
I'm the meantime my wife, who
was continually suffering with slight
skin trouble and who had been try.
Ing different prescriptions and meth.
DDS with my assistance, told me she
was going to get some Of the Cuticura
Remedies and give them a fair trial.
Dut 90 Niu Aol huOW dUOuL
Cuticura at that time I was doubtful
whether 1t would help her. Her skin
would thicken, break and bleed, es-
pecia|ly on the fingers, wrists and
arms. I could do nothing to relieve
her permanently. When she first ap.
piled the warm baths Of Cuticura
Soap and applications Of Cuticura
Ointment she saw a decided improve
ment and in few days she was com.
pletely cured.
II lost no time in recommending
the Cuticura Remedies to Mr.. -,
and this was two months ago. told
him to wash with warm baths of the
Cuticura Soap and to apply the Cuti.
cura Ointment generously. Believe
me, from the very first days use of
the Cuticura Remedies he was greatly
relieved and today he is completely
cured through their use. I have great
faith in the Cuticura Remedies and
shall always have good word for
them now that I am convinced Of
their wonderful merits" (Signed) B.

don't say that's all you'll get. What
you get depends entirely on you. The
better your pitching the bigger your
salary--a bonus to be paid at the end
of the season, If you've earned it.
'"ThesIndian agreed, saying: You've
always treated me fair and square,
Connie. / know you'll do the right
thing by me-
Bender pitched good ball in 1909,
and at the seasons close received a
large bonus. I had intended to give
him just what he got In 190S,' said
Connie Mack, but 1 still felt mean
about It, so / added an extra hundred
Then came the time to sign up the
players for next season. Cornelius Nc
Bender contract for the full amount
Of his salary for 1909, would he pitch
good ball, or would he lay down?
Professor McGillicuddy applied his
pragmatic psychology.
"'You see, John, rather like that
contract we had last season. said Pro-
fessor McGillicuddy to the Indian.
'Why--it worked out mighty well. You
pitched grand ball. And-why-Im
superstitious. I'm afraid If we change
1t, you won't be In such great form.
Can't help being superstitious. Why-I
guess it's my nature
"All right, Connie said Bender
I'm not afraid you won't treat me
right. Give me blank contract; I'll
sign 1t, and you can write in any sal
airy you like" Which was done; salary
exactly same as in the 1909 contract.
All because Connie Mack is superstiti-
ous-and because Cornelius McGilli-
cuddy is a pragmatist.
The Indian, Bender, pitched remark
able ball last season. He won the first
game Of the worlds series, giving his
team the Jump on the Cubs. In addi-
ton to his share of the gate receipts of
that series, he received from the Phila-
delphia club $4,000 by way Of salary"
