Small Chance for Long Schedule

14O-Game Route Suits Southern
Bv @. B. Keller.

WYE don't exactly get President
wv Andrews in his contention
that the adoption of 1874
game schedule would result in flnan-
cial difficulties in the Southern
League. The Chattanooga magnate
doesn't favor an extension of the
present 14O-game program, at least
for certain cities IN the circuit. And,
of course, they all have to play the
same number of games.
Heres what PreXy Andrews says:
L schedule will result in finan-
cial difficulties for several Of the
smaller towns in the league. The 140-
game schedule is the best thing for
the circuit, and IS for myself, shall
heartily stress the necessity for its
adoption. Judge Kavanaugh's opin-
ion in the matter comedies with
mine"
THAT settles the hash for the over
time program, We take it. Mr..
Andrews was a member of the sched-
ME committee last year, which
worked out a very popular program.
And he is a member of the schedule
committee for 1914 Besides which.

son. why We'll just get down on
that proposition with all we have left

from an Atlanta viewpoint. But II

They are going to draw up sam =
ple OF each schedule, To present 70 the
comn1ittee when 1t meets in Mem
nhis next week, and then there VIII
be some debating.
But as previously set forth, we are
preparing flowers for the lo4-game
proposition.
AS an afterthought, it occurs to us
n that the 140-game idea carried
us quite far enough last season. one
more week-one more day-would
have necessitated an Atlanta annex
10 the State nut factory.
ONE argument in favor of the l5t-,
~ game season is that 1t would
mean an additional stipend Of about
$3.50 to each Southern League ban
PLAYER for the season. TINS. 1t Is
said, would aid the league to comoat
.anV fancy salaries with which the
Federal League might be batting It's

The obvious answer TO that is that

SO much per month, and doubtless

Acid Stomachs

Common Sense Advice by a Oistin-

Acid stOnachs are dangerous because
acid irritates and infiamcs the delicate
lining OF the stomach, thus hinderng and
preventing the proper action of the stOm-
acl. and leading 10 probably nine-tenths of
the cases of stomach trouble from which
people suffer. Ordinary medicines and
medicinal treatments ACE useless in such
cases. for they leave the source of the
trouble. the acid in the stomach. dan
gerous as ever. The acid must he neutral
lied, and its formation prevented. and the
best thing for this purpose is a teaspoon
full of bisurated magnesia, a simple ant
acid. taken in a little warm or cold
water after eating, which not only neu-
traizes the acid, but also prevents the
fermentation from which acidity is de-
veloped. Foods which ordinarily cause
greatest distress may be eaten with i'm

bisurated ma2nesia. which can be obtained
from any druggist, and should always be

From the earliest nvcs; cations of the

offered the only practical means of So

experience. that the restraining emoank-
ments must he planned ana carried out
on a scale comparable with the mighty
opera tons of the river.
There has been much buiIdng of leVees
in the Mississippi valley for 40 years.
Until recent years the river has played
willfully with its adversaries, placidly
sweeping by for q few seasons while the
people toiled at raising bikes for the con-
finement of its waters and the proscrip-
ton of its free ravages. only to break
out at last in angry display of its superior
power. demolishing the frail walls, and
sweeping away in its food hundreds of
thousands of tons of earth After each
such outburst it would idle by for another
.'i"r' "ihie men again puilded on It's
banks.
The contest with the river long seemed
a vain one. AS the ievees time after time
were swept away by the floods and their
builders became discouraged many be-
