If the kidneys are not in a healthy
condition, they may cause the other
organs to become diseased.
You may suffer great deal with
pain in the back, bearing-down feel
ings, headache and loss or am bition.
Poor health makes you nervous, ir-
ritable and may be respondent; it
makes any one so.
But thousands of irritable, nervous,
tired and broken-down women have
restored their health and strength by
the use of Swamp-Root, the great Kid
ney, Liver and Bladder Remedy.
Swamp-Root brings new life and ac-
tivity to the kidneys, the cause of such
troubles.
Many send for sample bottle to
see what Swamp-Root, the great Kid

Bert King and RUDE Gardner. The
former was well up in the batting list
put his hits were not opportune. BY
/ looking up the score sheets, it has been
discovered that his hits scored fewer
runs than hits by other men or the
| team. In addition he was a hard man
| to handle That is the only reason for
his departure but the management be-
| lieves that he is an excellent player.
Money, marbles or chalk couldn't have
prevented the loss of RUDE Gardner.
He was drafted by the Coast League
and baseball law compels the Kaw
| management to turn the seuthpaw over
to the men in alleged faster company.
Charlie Block, the Nebraska State
League recruit, will not report to the
Topeka team, if deal goes through for
his transfer to another team. Gear has
secured the services of Forsythe and
McLarry and Lee of last years team
so don't need the flying machine. Gear
will fill in at outfield work occa sionally.
The Denver team will spend the last
ten days of the training season on the
baseball lot of Topeka. They will train
in the south and their schedule will
make it possible for them to arrive in
Topeka about April and the season
will open April Is. The Teddy Bears
will share the local lot with the Kaws.
The Kaws and Omahogs will play an
exhibition game in Oklahoma City. The
Rourke crowd will train at the Okla
homa metropolis and the KawS will
stop off there while on their way home
from DeniSOn.
The KaWs will report at DeniSon in
time to get into action on March H.
The players who live in the south will
go from their home direct to Denison.
The others will join Dale Gear in Kan
sas City and go to Denison in a crowd.
F'orsythe, McLarry, Reynolds, Nc
Gehee. Adams, Snapp and Gallagher
will report at Denison. Among those
who will report in Kansas City are
Crist, Fullerton, Billings, French, Lee,
Olloni, Rustenhaven, Mccullough, Pee
bles Mcdonald and Dulin.
The first games of the season to be
played by the Kaws will be on Easter
Sunday. The team will be divided. One
part will play in Paris and the other
will play in Denison on this date.
The Kaws will begin their trip tow
ara home on March 29 and will play
March 80 in Ardmore, Ok. The next
game will be at Oklahoma City with
with the Blues in Kansas City. The
team will get to Topeka April and
finish training here. This will give the |
fans two weeks to look them over.
The Kaws get but one holiday game |
at home but are not complaining on the |
schedule. They will open the season |
at home with Denver for games on |
Friday. Saturday and Sunday. The |
Grizzlies will be followed by the An |
te.opes for three games. After this |
series, the Kaws will go to Denver for |
V.
Saturday and Sunday. This looks good |
from a financial standpoint, and at the |
beginning of the season when gate re-
ceipts are needed mighty bad.
