The word medicine is one Of the
most abused in our language. There
are certain medicinal properties tust
as necessary to health as the food
we eat. Take. for example, the we'll
known tonic medicine, S. s. g. This
famous blood purifier contains medic
inal components just as vital and es-
sential to healthy blood as the ele-
ments of wheat, roast beef, the fats
and the sugars that make up our
daily ration
As a matter of fact. there is one
ingredient in s. s. S. which serves
the active purpose of stimulating
each cellular part Of the body to the
healthy and judicious selection of its
own essential nutriment That Is
why IT regenerates the blood sup
ply; why II has such a tremendous
influence in overcoming eczema, rash,
pimples, and all skin Affections.
And in regenerating the tissues S.
g. s. has a rapid and positive anti
dotal effect upon all those irritating
sore throat. weak eyes, falling hair,
loss of weight, thin, pale cheeks, and
that WEAKNESS Of muscle and nerve
that is generally experienced as
spring fever. Get a bottle of g. S. s.
at any drug store, and in a few days

ergetic. but you will be the picture Of

The result Of Kinsella's activities

until late in the summer. or until
draft time. However, 1t is said that
he has already spotted half dozen

FRANK CHANCE
IS BUILDING
NEW BALL TEAM
BY Monty.

NEW YORK, June 2S.-Peerless

Builder. The F. l.. or the T. b.
whichever you choose-has proved
himself once again. Those who had
scoffed at Frank Leroy Chance when
he came from the Cubs to take hold
Of the Yankees are preparing to lower
themselves into a small excavation
and drag said excavation in after
them.
His berators have seen the error of
their ways and are falling into line in
one OF the most interesting booster
parades ever marshaled They have
witnessed the first steps Of a great
work.
BEFORE Chance could begin work
- on the foundation he first had to
dig the cellar. He has rooted out most
of the minus quantities already-the
players who were worse than nobody
In that their way Of going at things
affected adversely the performances
of their mates. Since the season be-
gan he has rid himself OF bevy Of
men who were regarded as fixtures
last year. The principal go-away, of
course, is Hal Chase, who is the great
est first baseman in the world when
he wants to be, but seldom feels that
way about II. Jack Lelivelt and Char
ley Sterrett also were traded, and
Claude Derrick has been sold to ROch-
ester.
Among the new faces seen around
the Polo Grounds on an American
League Day are those Of an entire
new infield. Little Ezra Midkif, who
was looked upon as nothing remark
able last year under WolvertOn, is the
only holdover who seems likely to
possess a Job in the first defense
quartet that Chance Gnally settles
upon Baker Borton, known as Babe
on first. and Rollie Zeider at second
base, the two who were traded by
the White SoX for Hal Chase, are as
certain to stay on the job as man
can be.
DOGER PECKINPAUGH, from the
IN Maps for Lelivelt and Sterrett, is
destined to remain at shortstop. Bill
McKechnie. from the Boston Nation
ais by waiver route. is the fourth man
lined up in the new Chance inheld.
MCKechnie has been doing steady
work as utility performer.
The way the new inner bulwark
will be arranged when the injured
members Of it recover from their all
ments will be thus: BOrton first
base: zeider. second base PeclIin-
paugh. shortstop, Midkiff. third base.
Chance now has a more formidable
looking outfield due TO the owning
of stronger infield, which sounds
like an odd condition. But it is true.
because the acquiring of the new
corners made II possible to shift Roy
HartZell to the outer works. Hart
zeu Harry Wolter and Birdie Cree
comprise a trio of fly Chasers that
would satisfy the most exacting when
they are going at their best.
ITHO ever heard Of a winning team
w without a good catcher Unani-
nous and loudly shouted answer-not
l. Chance now has his good catcher.
He has Big Ed Sweeney playing bet
ter mechanically than ever before,
but Sweeney has been kept on the
bench a good deal of the time as sec
ond string man lately because the big
chief has a more brainy performer on
the job in young Gossett, from the
White SoX by waiver and il is re-
ported that Sweeney may be traded
