FINAL RESULT Of
IMPURE BLOOD
The System Is Left Weat, Run
Down and Helpless Against
the Attacks Of Disease.

II you need strength, if your blood Is
thin, your digestion disordered, it will
pay you to investigate the merits of DR..
Williams Pink Pills, the remedy that
has transformed so many weak, anemic,
dyspeptic, ambitionless people into
strong, healthy, hungry men and
Mrs. Lena May Roberts, whose ad-
dress is r. F. ID. No. 3, Aberdeen, So.
Dakota after several months of suffering
finally found the right tonic in DR..
Williams Pink Pills. She says:
"For months after the birth of my
baby, suffered terribly from a general
breakdown in health. Twas in bed for
three months and after that was able to
be up only part of the time. I was
sick all over, being pale, weak and
thin. My appetite was gone and my
head ached most of the time. Often
times there seemed to be a rush of blood
to my head and I would faint away. I
was very nervous and was not strong
enough to do any work.
"As the treatment I was taking did
not help me, began to take DR.. VIII
iams' Pink Pills, which friend said
had helped her. After taking O few
boxes, 1 began to get well rapidly. I
continued using them for a time and
am now as well and strong as ever in
my life."
The value of DR.. Williams Pink Pills
In general debility lies in their direct re-
sponse to the needs of the blood. Their
work is to make new blood. That they
do this well is shown by the gradual
disappearance of the symptoms and
the return of color and health. They
lay the foundation for permanent health
In the future.
For the same reason these pills have
cured anamia, after-efects of the grip
and fevers, rheumatism, indigestion,
and nervousness, dizziness, neuralgia
and St. Vitus' dance, and are recon-
mended wherever a tonic for the blood
and nerves is needed.
A valuable booklet, ssDiseases Of the
Blood" containing fuller information
about rheumatism and other diseases of
the blood will be sent free upon request.
DR.. Williams Pink Pills are sold by
all druggists, or sent, postpaid, On re-
ceipt Of price, SO cents per box; six

Jesse Tannehill, the former star. left-hander of the Pirates, Highland CTS and Boston Red SoX, has signed to play the outfield for the South Bend club of the Central league. Jesse has decided that his sturdy left wing, once enc of the craftiest in the business, has lost it's cunning, but belieces he can last few years more as an out. fielder. Jesse tried to do "Calla. han. with the Reds last season, but it was not successful.
 Jesse recently recommended a man as an umpire to President Neal of the Blue Grass league.
 Well, we need umpires," said Neal "Of course he is friend of yours?"
 T should say not" responded Jesse Do you think that I'd recommend any one really liked for an umpiring job l guess not"

 ''In my estimation, speaking, of course, in an unofficial capacity, all that the baseball rules need is polish ing. It speaks volumes for the stage Of perfection into which the national pastime has stepped just to recollect that the rules of today are almost identical with those of ten years ago.

PLAYERS DON'T KNOW RULES.
President Lynch of National League Says Fans Want Something
 Doing Every Second.

President Thomas J. Lynch, of the National League and member of tho joint rules committee, thinks the pres ent baseball rules cover every salient point of the game. Most of the fault is with the players, he asserts, not with the regulations of the diamond sport.
 'Too little thought is paid the play ing rules of the game" said MT Lynch. "Just stop a minute and con sider. How many ball players do you think are thoroughly conversant with the laws of the game by which they earn a livelihood? I do not believe
Pine Bluff daily graphic., 1912-03-10

that four in ten of the major league stars are absolutely sure of them selves. In the minor leagues the per- centage is even less.
 No changes should be made in modifying play that could in any way offend the patrons of the sport. Let us look at the present playing code from the standpoint of the fan. Wherein are the rules at fault? How could they be improved?
 "The American public likes action. For that reason the best game is the shortest, provided, of course, that there is something doing every second. Last year the games in both major leagues were unusually spirited. There was
