RILEY GETTING
INTO SHAPE

Frank Riley is rapidly getting
in shape for his strenuous battle
with Fred Beel for the champion
ship. Riley has carefully gone
over Beel's record and his own,
weighing up the various men both
have met and while he does not
say he will be able to wrest the
title from Beel he says he will
make him work like a trojan to
hold it.
With the match but week
away Riley is working hard. He
is getting into ne condition and
will be able to make good show
ing. His cleverness and endur-
ance promise to make him a good
match for Beel and the fans will
not be disappointed.
The latest is that Howard Mum
dorff will play a field position for
the San Francisco Seals, and that
Dutch Altman will get the third
sack.

Settled Without a Strike.

1t is reported that resident OF TINS
city lost his position because he wore
better clothes than his>boss. At first
thought that sounds ridiculous but
here is how it happened The boss
was in the habit of buying a regular
$4,000 suit and paying $4,000 for it,
The unfortunate man who lost his job
felt that $500 had always been his
limit.
He visited a bona fide going-out of
business sale, now running in Augusta
and bought twenty dollar suit for
s14.75 and saved % cents on his usual
appropriation.
We don't want you to loose Your
job but we do want To see you save
money. You can do it II you take adj
vantage of the bargains offered at
Sherhurne and Daileys' going out of

BY the way, we forgot to state that
the man who lost his job got a much
better one with more pleasant duties
and better wages. 1t pays to be well
dressed You can he that man be-

PRECAUTIONARY MEASURES.
How to Avoid Contagion.

Vaccination and the use of reliable
disinfectant are recognized as the best
representatives. The last thing at night
pour into the traps of the closets, wash
basins, sinks, etc, just little Platts
Chlorides. Places where disease germs
may develop, hooks behind plumbing
and all spots that can't be reached by
the scruhbng brush should be freely
sprinkled with mixture of one Cd part
of Platt's Chlorides and ten QO) parts
of water This dilution costs less than
5 cents a quart. Do not neglect a liberal
sprinkling of the cellar. To remove OBJ
jectionable odors where sprinkiing Is IN
advisable, keep a cloth or sponge mois-
tened with the dlution mentioned. A
little extra care just now may prevent
much sickness and expense. Platt
Chlorides is an odorless, colorless liquid
disinfectant which instantly destroys
foul odors and misunderstanding matter.
1t is stronger, safer and cheaper than
carbolie acid and all druggists sell 1t in
fun quart bottles. Write. Henry -.

OPEN AIR THEATER.
Murree to Erect One South of the
Bowman Street Rink.

Fred Murree. manager of the Sc
leet Roller Rink, has bought the field
directly south of his rink on Bowman
street upon which he will build a first
class up- date open air theater. A
crew of men started in work. Wednes-
day forenoon, taking down the old
fence. which has enclosed the field,
and a 12-foot board fence will be put
in it's place Immediately.
The position which Manager Murree
has selected for his open air theater
is one of the best in town, for it is
well shaded by fine shade trees, and
it is very seldom. even in the hottest
days of the summer, that the spot is
not swept by a gentle breeze from the
Kennebee river. which is close by.
The theater will be equipped with all
of the modern conveniences. and will
be one of the best in this vicinity.
The program which Manager Muir
rec intends to offer will include NOV
ing pictures and vaudeville acts and
shows will be given both in the after
noon and evening. Mr.. Murree has
written to a film company in the West
which advertises pictures which can
be shown IN the sunlight, and he plans
10 get these if possible for his after
noon performances This will be the
first open air theater that has ever
been attempted in this city.
