Made Strong and Weu by VinoL
When we tell you that vinol is the
best remedy in our whole stock for
making weak, puny. ailing children
strong. robust and rosy. We are only
telling you what has been proved by
hundreds of mothers.
Mrs. W. o. Strother, Raleigh. N. c..
rays: MY little girl. Hazel, has been
taking Vinol to build her up after .
severe spell of sickness. 1t has done
so much good by restoring her appe-
tite and building up her strength that
/ think Vinol Is the finest tonic ever
prepared, and am telling everyone
about It."
What vinol did for this little
girl it will do for very weak and
ailing child, because sickly children
need the strengthening cod liver
clements and the tonic iron that
Vinol contains-that is why Vinol
builds them up quickly and gives
them a fine, healthy color. 1t is
pleasant to take, and We guar
sntee that the results will satisfy

CLIMBERS TO PLAY .
NNAPLAND SUNDAY
viii Make Jump to Forest City for Single Sabbath Contest Re-
turning to Continue Series at Florida Avenue Ball Park
In Enge Due to Oppose White Sox Tomorrow
By SENATOR, ("

Next Sunday the Climbers will play in
Cleveland, taking advantage of the op-
portunity to perform, before a holiday
throng in the Forest City. Both teams
will be here the day before, and will
make the trip together, returning that
same night to continue their series at
the Florida avenue park. This jump
10 Cleveland is made necessary through
the exigencies OF the schedule whiC h
requires the Griffmen to travel from
Cleveland TO ST. LOUIS without an off
day. This is risky, a couple of hours Of
delay bringing the team into the Mound
City too late to play the Brownies.
This is circumvented by advancing
games in Cleveland, thus giving the
Climbers plenty of time TO reach ST.
Louis not being obliged to play until
the day following their arrival.
My Poy Choe'' Engel, who has won
quite handiIy his last brace Of games,
is on the cards to open the series be-
ginning here tomorrow with the Chi
cago White Sox. Engel has evidently
rounded into perfect condition Tor his
best work. and should make a good
showing tomorrow. He failed to get
a chance against the Windy City tribe
on the last trip of the Climbers around
the frontier, and hopes to do tomorrow
what he might have done then.
Pitching Engel tomorrow brings
Dixie Joe Boehling up for Tuesdays
game. Boehling will do his best to
shatter the jinx that generally fol-
lowe a winning streak, that Of drop
ping the next three in row. Boeh-
ling has lost his last two games. but
Tuesday should be strong enough to
go the distance in tiptop fashion.
Following BoehIing will come Sir
Robert Groom or Harry Clayton
Psrper for Wednesdays combat. Wal
ter Johnson will appear in the final
contest with the White SoX. If he is

against the Tigers. The Jungaleers
grabbed two of their three contests. and
made Johnson travel to win yesterday.
Meanwhile the Naplanders won five
straight from the Boston Red Sox, and
are now close on the heels of the Mack
men, who barely broke even with the
Brownies. The Maps are today six and
half games behind the Athletics and
five and a half ahead of the Climbers
Tomorrow the Maps face the Mackmen
and on Friday open a series here. This
week should see some changes in the
standing of the league. Counting next
Sundays game in Cleveland, the Bir-
mtngham brigade will have nine straight
games with the Athletics and the Griff-
men. II they can stand the pace and
win a majority Of these games, they will
be serious contenders for the pennant.
Doc Ayres has made wonderful
record thus far for Richmond. He has
appeared in twenty-seven games, and
has famed 1888 batsmen and walked
only sixteen In no game has he passed
more than three, and he has reached
that mark but once. Three times he has
whitfield thirteen hitters. He has aver

less than one walk, and has allowed
slightly more than six hits to every !
combat. Ayres should be a welcome ad- !
dition to the staff of the Griffmen.

GLORIOUS ENDING
TO JOHNSON DAY

He was as pleased with it as a boy
with new hobby horse.
Stands Packed oCapacity.
johnson Day passes into history as
the greatest baseball holiday in Wash
ingtOn. While the paid attendance
reached 15.6s9 persons, it is safe to say
that more than 1900 fans packed to
overfiowing the stand pavilions, and
bleachers. Certainly there was more
enthusiasm shown than in any opening
day. Johnson was not in the best of
form, suffering considerable pain from
his spiked ankle. but that very fact
made the game closer and more excit-
ing. He did not have his usual speed.
but he could always rise to the occasion
and stop the enemy from rushing to the
front.
o.,ortIy after noon the gates were
Openon, admitting the fans To the un-
reserved sections Of the stand and the
paVllionS, but plenty of seats Were In be
found in the upper ter al 2:l5. In the
last half hour though, the fans simnIy
flooded the park, finding seats on the
steps when no others were available.
The best OF spirit prevailed, too, no one
complaining. The sun shone, the brvc za
stirred the flags on the roof and the
plumes on the wOmen's hats, and wal
ter johnson was out there winning his
game. No wonder the fans were happy.
Fans Flock to Grass.
So large was the attendance that sew
eral hundred fans founc seats Oh the
grass around the field. Long planks
were brought for them to use, and not
a sign of disurdeTliness was seen dur
ing the afternoon. Strange TO say. not

for tho exit. In half an hour the big

and carried it TO the foul line nearest
the Climbers bench, and there a large
bag was produced, into which the
money was poured. 1t was then imme-
diately taken to the safes of the Mum
sey Trust Company. The scramble OF
Altrock and Gedeon for the bright new
bills was excrutiatingly funny, and set
the fans laughing.
1t had been intended to take the cup
at once TO the jewelry store of r. Har-
ris & Co. where 1t is to be exhibited this
week for the editication of the fans
but Johnson asked that ii remain on
the bench awhile, so that he might have
chance to look at it, This request was
Immediately granted, and the bench

WEATHER CONDITIONS
HAVE BEEN GOOD
Monthly Cotton Letter Issued BY s.
{. Alexander Cotton Com
pany.

The following weekly cotton letter
has been issued by the S. C. Alexan-
der Cotton Company, of this city.
Pine Bluff, August /, 1913.
Dear Sirs: -Weather conditions
have been fairly good in this terri
tory since our last report, and as a
rule the progress of the crop has
been satisfactory. Some sections re-
port too much rain, others tho
enough, but it was remarkable sea-
son indeed that failed to bring COM
plants from some quarter.
For your information we quote be-
low an extract from crop letter
written by our senior some years ago
and which in our opinion reflects
present conditions very we'll:
The crops of all kinds in our dis
trict promise so much more than they
have for the past two seasons that
we are filled with joy. But when we
look at the manufacturing districts
and the unsettled conditions caused
by Debs and the tariff our fond eX-
pectations get down towards six
cents. August is here; it is all sorts
OF a month and may bring a bull
movement if only backed by a few
worms and an occasional sharp
shooter. At present no enemy has
made his appearance, and the weed
filled with squares, blooms and
small bolls bows and %ends in the
breeZes unmolested"
After persuing the above it should
be comparatively easy matter to
decide whether to go long or short
on cotton.
Very truly yours,
S. G. Alexander Cotton Co.
