WHY?
WHY?

We do not attempt to answer these sample ques-
tions, but the FACTS are that keep far
extensive line than the average city drug store
we have to; that we invariably offer get anything
not in stock; that in consequence constantly
getting articles specially for parties; that almost
invariably we add that article regular stock
and sometimes do SO if do not take the order;
that our prices average higher than any reliable
pharmacy in the city and in many less
though we have to pay expressage on everything
which they have delivered to their door free; that
it would be absurd for us to do otherwise, though
most articles higher priced by our nearby COM
petitors that it is interest to do otherwise
than offer to get anything in line and not per-
mitting us to do it is failure to recognize that is
what here for; that we learned practical
pharmacy in the leading pharmacies on the leading
streets of Philadelphia with some of the leaders of
Pharmacy, and theoretical Pharmacy at the oldest
college of Pharmacy in the country and do not
believe the air of this section has a tendency to
deteriorate knowledge and ablity-or if so we
must have company.
In short we have some business brains and COM
mon well as pharmaceutical experience
and knowledge and one of the best fitted and most
convenient pharmacies to be found-not forgetting
our very roomy, well stocked prescription depart
ment tell your doctor to call and see the latter!
We are not here for our health, for amusement or
phlanthropists, but for business as pharmacists
and our record shows it. Our record, standing
facilities and equipment show WHY we feel we
ought to have all your business instead Of a portion
being given to Philadelphia and elsewhere.

Needs Most Is Power of
Endurance.

NEW YORK, Feb. l0,-The approach of
the spring base ball training season has
reopened the annual discussion as to
whether such expensive tours to the far
south or west are necessary. Both mag
mates and managers appear to be divid-
ing into two factions on the question,
with neither section having enough con-
fldenee in its opinions TO put them to ac-
tual test.
Each year the club owners sigh as they
put their signatures on the hundred and
one bills which follow the squad north
after the close Of the southern sojourn
Without exception they would rurtail ex-
penses in this direction did they dare
The bugaboo Of a taIlend team unable to
keep pace with rivals trained in sunny
chimes has always prevented the deolara-
ton that hereafter the players would pre-
pare for the base ball campaign on the
home diamond.
Many believe that the men could be
rounded into eopditlon Just as well at
home as In Texas, Georgia or Louisiana.
but tradition and custom Is n barrier
which they fear TO mount. Manager Fred
Clarke, who has studied the southern
training problem from every angle. said
recently in discussing the question:
IF professional Is q real ball player
It's like swimming. He can always play
with a moderate amount OF practice.
What he needs more than anything else
at the start Of the season is endurance.
Long walks over hills. hand ball games
and that kind Of training which gives the
player endurance. wind and vlgor and
takes off the superfluods flesh"
Clarke believes that the long trip 10
southland could be halved or perhaps
dispensed with entirely II the players
would train systematically at home dur
Ing the winter and spring months. II is
a well known fact that almost every
member Of big league squad spends
week to ten days reducing weight as the
first task after reaching spring quarters.
Taking off superfluous Flesh,
After the superfluous flesh accumulated
during a winter Of comparative idleness
has been removed the ordinary routine
differs but little from the daily practice
during the league season. Once In con-
dition the men play regular nine-innlng
games in a temperature equal to a mid
summer day In northern chimes.
Shortly before the opening game Of the
pennant struggle the clubs work north,

opposition scored eight runs. At the end
Of the second inning comiskey told him
he would be relieved by another pitcher

REVIVE RACING AT MANAWA
Rowing Association Prepares to
Again Use the Lake.
SHELLS TO BE PAINTED UP
New Dam is Installed and This Has
Restored the Water to the
Level Prevailing In FOR
mer Years.

Both sailboat and shell racing will be
revived at the Council Bluffs Rowing as
soeiation this summer according to re-
ports OF some OF the directors who held
a meeting last week. This form of sport
has been forbidden the members for the.
last few years owing to the small amount
Of water in Lake Manawa At present
there is about fourteen more inches of
water in the lake than there was last
summer.
This announcement is well received by
the boating enthusiasts of the tri-cities.
There are some twelve or fourteen shells
in the club house which will now be put
into use. There are eight-oar, four-oar
and single shells, and they are all said
to be In the best OF condition and not
warped. About twenty ssilboats Of all
classes are also stored up In the boat
house and in barns around Council Bluffs
which will be put into condition for
racing this summer Since the announce
ment early last week that racing would
again be revived several members of the
association have begun to figure on the
cost of purchasing a full rigger." or at
least "eatboat."
A few years ago the Council Bluffs
Rowing association ha0 some Of the best
eight-oared crews In the west ana these
old-timers who are In any possible con-
dition say they will be there this summer
