Cub Park Is a Duck PondEGives
Safer Chance to Pick Up.

Cub park resembled a duck pond
more than a baseball field this after
noon, and the opening game between
tie Cubs and st. Louis Cardinals was
postponed for one day at least. Ac-
cording to the weather man, who has
been hitting them on the nose re-
GENTLY, Wen be lucky if we see ball
game before Saturday. A little rain
and a lot of snow is all the hard luck
promised.
Though President Murphy, who is
losing lot of change because of the
postponement, will probably shoot us
in the left ear when we see him, we
are optimistic guys, and can see
little brightness in the gloom.
For one thing, it will give Vic Safer
more time to glue up his busted leg.
And we want him in the game. Also,
Al Bridwell, who has been roaming
around the flood region in a rowboat,
will be given opportunity to become
acquainted with dry land again, if
he stays indoors.
Jawn Evers will have another day
to practice his oratory, and Heinie
Zim, the famous Harvard graduate,
can brush up the little things he
learned in college, such as swatting
major league umpires and baseballs.
Murphy may lose a bunch of coin,
but Evers is the real hard-luck gink.
Several loyal fans, who are politi-
clans and hold down city jobs on the
side, have purchased chest of silver
for the Korking Krab, and will pre-
sent it to him when he first steps to
the plate. John was preparing to give
a dinner party, at which the-new tools
would be trotted out, but he may
have to recall the invitations until
some time in June.

THE INTERNATIONAL ..BEN HUR"
Popular Play to be Given i'm Columbia
Theatre Next Wednesday and
Thursday.

Spectacular magnificence, dramatic
splendor and religious ecstacy are
the most notable concomitants of
Klaw & Erlanger's international pro-
duction of "Ben-Hur," which will be
the Offering at the Columbia Theatre,
Columbia, Wednesday and Thursday
nights and Thursday matinee, No
veInber 19 and 90. During the
fourteen years which have passed
since the original presentation Of this
noble drama-itS owners have not
only kept it up to its original grand
eur, but have elaborated and de-
veloped the possibilities of the pro-
duction each season, until today 1T
stands unrivaled in beauty of estab-
lishment, unsurpassed in dramatic
significance and power. 1t was the
"last word" of the stage craft of the
nineteenth ceutry and into the new
age it brought bigness and perfec-
tion which will remain the standard
for decades to come.
Dealing with the early life of Jesus,
the most important period in history,
"Ben-Hur" shows the world at its
most wonderful point in magniticence
and wealth, for Rome ruled the
world and Caesar Augustus was En-
peror of the mightiest realm the
earth had known. Into this time of
display and pomp came the lowly
Nazarene, the Christos for whom the
nation had longed, and it is this per-
sonality of Jesus that, permeating
the fabric of the Wallace-Eo
drama, makes it a sermon as we'll as
a drama of tremt dous significance.
The reverence with which the immi-
nence of Christ is indicated has made
"Ben-Hur" religious pageant,
while the sweep of the story of Ben
Hur and Messala, Esther and Iras,
carries audiences off their feet, the
elimination of the dramatic plot be-
ing the chariot race, wherein Ben
Hur conquers and deGrades his
enemy.
Nothing more realistic than this
scene in the arena of the Circus of
Antioch with Ben-Hur and Messala f.
driving Quadruple teams Of equine /
thoroughbreds contesting for u
premacy has ever been imagined b' |
a dramatist or executed by n pro-
ducer The race enthralls because on
it's outcome depends life, love, honor, |
riches to the victor, and when Ben |
Hur receives the victor's crown of !
wild olive, audiences applaud with |
the greatest enthusiasm. Adv.

USE OF CALOMEL
PRACTICALLY STOPPED
Dangerous Drug Giving Way for
Safer, MOI : Reliable Remedy.

Safer, MOI e Reliable Remedy.
Hundreds of people in this vicinity
alone have stopped the use of dan
gerous caiomel when their liver is
acting slowly. and take Dodson's
Liver Tone instead.
Dodson's Liver Tone is always
safe and has none Of the bad after
effects which so often follow the use
of calomel. 1t is a pleasant-tasting
vegetable liquid that starts the liver
gently and surely, and relieves con-
stipation and biliousness and causes
no restriction Of habit or diet.
Many preparations have sprung up
that initiate the claims made for
Dodson's Liver Tone, but remember
Dodson's Liver Tone is the tried and
tested remedy that has proven such
good medicine and is so satisfac-
tory to every user-is the reason
these limitations are on the market.
Dodson's Liver Tone cannot hurt
anyone and If it fails to do all that is
claimed for 1T, the Standard Drug
Company, who sells it, will give your
money back with a smile.
