Hospital Five.

The Pettingills Corner baseball team
is still winning, having trimmed the
Maine Insane hospital team, Saturday
afternoon, on the Hospital grounds. to
S. The game was close and very inter-
esting from start to finish, and it was
difficult to pick a winner until the last
man was out in the ninth inning At the
end of the eighth inning the score stood
to 4, but by good hitting in the ninth
the Corner boys secured three runs. The
Hospital team tried hard to win out in
its half of the ninth but was put out
after securing one run.
The feature of the game was the pitch
ing of Harvey. who struck out II men.
while York. the pitcher for the opposing
team, did good work and also secured Il
large number of strikeouts. The two
baggers obtained by Gid Perham and Ed

great deal to do with the final score being
in favor of the Corner boys.

When you buy a package of Samose,
the great fiesh-forming food, weigh
yourself and see how much you gain In
the first weeks use. Bowditch, Web
ster & Co. will tell of many of their
customers who a month or so ago were
thin, pale and haggard but who arc
now. through the use Of samese, plump,
and attractive flesh. They have seen SO
many instances of the, wonderful power
of Samose to restore the weak and sick
to strength and health, and to make good
natural flesh that they give their per-
sonal guarantee with every package of
Samose they sell to refund the money
if it does not prove satisfactory.
Samose is a pure preparation, and can
be used with absolute confidence by the
most delicate. 1t gives remarkable re-
suits with children who are weak and
run down and without appetite. II builds
up the thin, pale, puny girl and woman

the only flesh-forming food of its kind
and in addition it strengthens every

boys did not show up although the
Cony team was on the field md ready

that its reason for not playing this
game was on account of a postponed
game with Cony being played on the
day previous. at Gardiner, insisting
that they cancelled the game with
Manager Swift of the Cony team,
while on the other hand. Swift claims
that he did rot cancel the game. and
gave the Gardiner management prop

by forfeit. The Cony boys claim that
they did not like to take the cups in
such a manner, so the forfeit was call
ed off, and the managers of The respec-
tive teams scheduled game to take
place, Saturday, in this city. The game
would probably have been played had
it not been for "a notification received
by Principal Herman Fl. stuart of
Cony from the Board Of Health, stat
ing that they would not allow a game
on that diamond, Saturday afternoon.

pressed its willingness to play Cony

and Il good many cony fans are dissat-

boys will not play on some other dia-
mon6, but the Cony management still
holds firmly to its stand in regard to
playing in some other city. RI the
