You cannot be o~ver-careful in the

Only the very gentlest bowel medi-

emergency cases, Ordinary pills,
~cathartics and purgatives are apt to
do more harm than good. They may
cause gripping, nausea and other dis

We personally recommend and
guarantee Rexall Orderlies as the
safest and most dependable remedy,
which We know, for constipation and
associate bowel disorders. We have
such absolute faith in the virtues of
this remedy that we sell it on our
guarantee of money back in every
instance where it fails to give en-
tire satisfaction, and We urge all in
need of such medicine to try it at our
risk.
Rexell Orderlies are eaten just like
candy, r particularly prompt and
agreeable in action, may be taken at
any time, day or night; do not cause
diarrhoea, nausea, gripping, excessive
l~ooseness, or other undesirable eff
fects. They have a very mild but
positive action upon the organs with
which they come in contact, apparent

Dick Harley's Treatment Of Giant
Manager One Of Big Events In
Baseball History.

Dick Harley, old Cincinnati, Chica
go and Detroit outfielder, living in
Philadelphia, was the only player who
ever had the nerve to spike Muggsy
McGraw when McGraw played third
base for Baltimore, and his treatment
of the future Giant manager is one of
the big events in baseball history as
ball players remember 1t.
Players wore long, sharp spikes
nine years ago. Basemen were cut and
runners tripped in every game. OF the
rough players McGraw was the rough.
est. and all feared to try to get even
with him.
In a game between Baltimore and
Detroit, McGraw got after Ducky
Holmes, the Detroit outfielder. How
do you expect to play ball? Your
whole family died Of consumption and
you're full Of It," said McGraw.
Harley roomed with Holmes, and
when he went to his hotel room af.
ter the game he found Ducky crying.

Harley. Next day Harley slid into
third base and cut big cash in Nc.
Graw's leg. After that Harley was
the most respected base runner in the
league. Basemen always gave him at
least half the bag when he slid, and
most of them gave him all the room
he wanted.

FIND PLAYERS BY ACCIDENTS
Some Of the Greatest Players Diamond
Has Ever Known Were Discovered
by Sheer Luck.

Some OF the greatest ball players
the game has ever known have been
discovered by accident, or through
sheer luck. And this statement is the
sruest thing you know. Five players
have been picked at random, but they
stand among the best the game h.s
ever known, just to show the truth OF
the above assertion.
The men are the late Ed Delehanty,
Amos Rusie, who many believe was
the greatest pitcher ever in the game;
Hans Wagner-by the way, his proper
name is John Paul Wagner; Ownie
Bush and Ty Cobb
Rusie began his ball career with the
old Grand Avenue team In Indianap-
Dlis, when Indianapolis was member
Of the old 12-club National League.
This was back In the eighties. Rusie
was pitcher, powerful, husky
young giant, who had world OF speed
and a dazzling array of curves. The
Grand Avenues had one large picnic
with the other teams in the old In
dianapolis City league when Rrsie
pitched.
Jack Glasscock was playing short
stop on the Indianapolis National
league team at that time, and Jerry
Denny was holding down third base.
Glasscock was captain OF the team.
He heard of Rusie's pitching. and one
Sunday took Denny and liked out to
the City League park, where Rusie
played. Glasscock watched the young
ster work, and both he and Denny

his prime. He is now living at Vim

and dredging for mussel pearls In the

Ed Delehanty, the greatest Of the
Delehanty ball-playing family, began,
! on the lots around Cleveland, his home
city. In 1886 some one told the man

Delehanty was great ball player.
Some days~later Delehanty received

Wheeling club.
The youngster didn't have any

and made his way there by riding
freight trains and walking. He was
an infeldeT, playing second base, and
he made good from the jump. In 1887
Philadelphia decided to give him
trial, and along in the fall of that
year Delehanty made his major league
debut, succeeding Bastian, one Of the
greatest players Of his time, at second
base.
AS a big league second basemen the
man who was destined to become a
terror to the best pitchers the game
