HOME HEALTH CLUB
By DR. DAVID Fl. REEDER, La Forte, rndiana

DIARRHOEA:- :-In, this acute afflic- ton nature is doing all 1t can to right itself. It is an effort on the part of Mature to rid the person afflicted ot offending material that might other wise be fatally dangerous Hence to check the diarrhoea suddenly means to take chances with the patients life,. or health. 9a
 Of course the thing to do is to- aid nature, which means to remove the cause of the trouble by sensible means. A plentiful and thorough enema Of water warmed to about 95 degrees is the first thing tos be given, thus to cleanse the colon and prepare 1t for the extra work 1t must do. After the enema has had it's entire erect give a large dose of castor oil, gagged in size by the capacity of the paaAaAt, in years and strength, to take it.. That. is to say, give to child what would be a generous dose for a child and to a grown man what would be generous dose for him. This treat ment is radical and will always prove effective if there are no complies tions, which generally there are not. It is usually and simply a case of over-eating or the eating of stuff that is unfit for the human stomach-green apples and such for instance, in a boy. Some sort of pain-killer or StnST ulaA4HoSH PdLe4AL Htc1lclnS, MlEHl give temporary relief and sound sleep, but the causes not having been re- moved the danger will increase every hour.
 After the enema and castor oil have had the full effect, give the patient blackberry cordfal-lwhich should al ways be kept in homes where there are children, or others, liable to diarr- hoea or stomach -ache, from the cause suggested. This cordialN should be made at home it is a simple though excellent remedy, easily prepared as follows:

fiBILLY' PLEASES
 POLL PLAyG0ERS
AMUSING COMEDY AFFORDS WILL Son MELRosE AND MAR
 GUERITE STARR GOLDEN OPPORTUNITIES.

They have dfamatized the comic supplements and the latest Tenderloin scandals but nobody ever thought that such commonplace articles as teeth could be used as dramatic plot. If you don't believe this can be done, go to Polls this week and witness the production of 'Billy'' by the Poli Players.
 The idea was first used by Sidney Drew who appeared with great sue s'Billy's Tombstone Afterward the sketch was made into a play and the name was changed to Billy Sidney Drew, Drew who is brother of John Drew. 1t had a long Broadway run.
 The idea of the plot centers about a young football player who has four teeth knocked out in a college game It is necessary to replace the absent molars by false teeth and the young man is very sensitive about the mat ter. When he takes trip by boat to Havana he meets a girl on board to whom he desires to propose. Shall he tell her of his great misfortune or win her love under false pretenses? Be fore that puzzling question is an- sWered many laughable complications ensue.
 Wilson Melrose was immense in the part of Billy" He played with just the right degree of humor and his ef- forts to make his false teeth behave kept the audience in roars of laugh ter. Miss Marguerite Starr added to her laurels by her interpretation of the role Of Marjorie. She suspected Billy of having horrible past when he began to stammer explanations but she was eventually convinced that teeth don't make the man. Tom Moore was his usual breezy self as Sam Eus- ton.
 Jessie Pring1e did we'll as Marjorie's mother and the others in the cast were satisfactory The play is sure to please the Po1i natrons fhie week

FUND TO DEFEND
 ACCUSED MILKMEN

 Plainfeld. July 27.-Among the far mers in this section who send milk to market, an effort is being made to raise a sum of money for use in de- lending those producers, who have been arrested on federal complaints of not having milk up to standard, and who will have their trial before the federal court at it's next session. The last batch of complaints included many we'll known milk producers and the outlook now is that the union of producers will appear in the proceed ings.
 Dealers have been notified by many farmers that they will not send their milk to shipping points after August 19, but will use it for butter. Should such action be taken there will be more or less shortage of milk for the Providence market. The farmers al- so say that they are willing to act against dealers, who return cans in bad and unsanitary conditions.

Comedian of the Washington
team, and funniest man i'm base
ball."
I have heard many a funny
baseball story, but the funniest
ever came directly under my own
observation. The game was
played in my bush league days,
and 1t is just as well to leave out
names and places.
The play that caused the mob
scene happened in the 18th In
ming. We went to bat in the first
half of the fourteenth, hoping to
end the game. as darkness was
approaching and 1t was evident
that only one more inning could
be played. Our first man up
reached first, was sacrificed to
second and took third on passed
ball. With only one out, 1t
looked like run.
The batter was clever bunter,
and the manager signalled for a
squeeze play. The pitcher had
plenty of speed and smoked one
over. Naturally the runner on
third was off with the ball, the
batter connected, and while the
ball was In the air the runner slid
over the plate. The batter hit
the ball too hard and almost
made a single over short.
The third baseman had raced
in for hunt, and of course, was
out of the play. 1t was evident,
however. that the shortstop could
make the catch.
AS the runner who had crossed
the plate got on his feet his
teammates yelled to him to get
back to third to prevent a double
play. He started for the bag as
IL mad. The shortstop muffed the
ball when the runner was about
half way back. Seeing the error,
the runner dashed for the plate
again, but the throw retired him.
At this stage the mob scene
was put ON. No one seemed to
know what had happened. Every
player rushed at the umpire. The
official kept his head and ruled
that when the man on third
touched the plate a run had been
tailed and that everything that
happened afterward was void. The
decision being In our favor, we
gracefully retired, but not SO the
home team.
They kicked long and loud,
and the bleacherites, believing
the umpire had made a terrible
decision, rushed on the field. Sc
