Mothers Tell of
Mothers Friend

Experience is or should be our best
teacher Women who have obeyed the
highest and noblest of { Il sacrifices, the
struggle for the life O: others, should
have a better idea of helpful influence
than those who theorize from observation,
At any rate when q prospective grand
mother urges her daughter to do as she
did-to use ''Mother's Friend" there is
reason to believe it the right advice.
Mothers Friend is al external ap-
plication for expectant mothers. Its pur
pose is to furnish pliancy to the muscles,
to take away the strain on the cords and
Iigaments, to relieve the tension of nerves
and tendons so apt to provoke or ag-
gravate nausea, morning sickness, twitch-
ings of the limbs and so on.
Although. in the nature Of things, a
woman would use Mothers Friend but
but rarely, yet so effective has it been
found that this splendid remedy is on sale
in most drug stores throughout the
United States. It has been prepared by
Bradfeld Regulator Co., 406 Lamar Bldg,
Atlanta, Ga, and advertised by US for
over forty years This is fine record
for such a special remedy and the CRATE
full letters received to-day are just as
appreciative as We're those of years ago
notwithstanding that methods are sup
posed to have greatly advanced. ASK at
the drug store for a bottle OF Mothers
Friend" It is worth while.

One late afternoon some time after
my arrival at Big Spencer stream,
returned to the burnt lands to gather
berries. On the way stood on a slight
elevation, looking down into a small
gully. From somewhere afar came the
Sound of a rife shot, which brought
back to me the thought of human be-

in the gully below, a deer come tear
ing through the brush with two bears
at her heels. The deer was evidently
wounded. as she would stagger and
fall, then get to her feet again and
dash along.
The two bears looked like gallOp-
ing balls of fur. They would almost
reach the deer when she would fall,

MANAGER DAVE CASTOR. Home
runs, sensational catches, and the
ability to make men deliver the goods,
won Dave home in the hearts of the
Americas fans. Davie presented Amer
icus with her first pennant and the
Sumter fans will not forget it in a
hurry.
HUGH ELLIS, CIR Salome, as he was
dubbed, was the sensation of the
league. The big fellow got more pub
licity than any other boy in the circuit.
His playing attracted the attention of
the other clubs and from he start he
was accused of being every big league
player in captivity from Old Pop An
son down to Tyrus Cobb. But ne
helped US win with his slap-stick, and
Salome can come back down here and
be elected mayor without any opposi-
ton any time he wants to.
CHARLIE LEONARD. The best sec
ond sacker in the league. You'll all
agree to that Otto Jordan and the
rest did not have a look-in with this
Chattanooga boy. He's slated for faster
company, and he'll stick.
MELFORD PRATT. Side partner of
Bob Geary. And according to our no
ton, one Of the best in the league.
This boys record of Is wins and IL
lnses makes him look good. And con-
s:dering the games he lost by to 0
ana to 1 scores, he looked more than
good. Pratt has everything but weight
to carry him to Jawn McGraw, or Con

Here is the first picture published
of the pennant winning Muckalees. All
We loyal fans cut it out and paste it
where you can see it during the long
winter months when gossip and dope
is all that will be left of baseball. Put
it where you will be reminded of the
boys who outclassed the whole league
and presented Americas with her first
rag.
It's needless to attempt to sing the
praises of the members of this aggre-
cation. Their work on the diamond
has been enough to place them in the
class of heroes as far as Americas is
concerned. From Manager Dave down
to the youngest youngster on the cluo,
they have all won home IN pennant-
Vile.
The remarkable showing of this club
against Thomasville in the post-sea-
son series, proved them to be the class
of the league. Four straight from the
erstwhile champs looked easy and the
post-season was a runaway for the
Muckalees.
After making a poor showing in the
first half the Muckalees woke up in
the second period and were on top all
the way. Not single time during this
half were they out of first place. Time
and again Cordele or Brunswick, their
closest rivals, would attempt to drag
Americas down. But each time the
Muckalees were too much and the Ba-
bies and Pilots were forced to content
themselves with the small end of the
score.
While several of the boys are slated

his bat. He was played in the Quilted
most of the time he was not pitching,
because of his hitting. Geary won u
and lost during both halves. He was
the winner of the Times-Recorder
Popularity Cup and was strong con-
tendon for the Daniels Trophy, offered
for the man with the best batting av,
erage for the season.
GLENN COLBY. Glenn put pep into
the team and by his good playing
around first helped the MucXalees win.
Glenn although not a slugger was a
reliable hitter, and his timely swats
helped rout many club.
BILLIE PIERRE. And who doesn't
know Dead Rabbit. This one chap de-
serves more credit for winning the rag
than anyone else on the club. Pierre
with his head work back of the plate
made it easy for the pitchers to win
their games. His line of CAB which
earned for him around the circuit the
title of "Big-Mouth Bill" kept the team
full of life all the way and many
game was won through his ability to
keep the team scrapping.
GRADY BOWEN. Grady played just
about every position on the team
during the season. He wound up in
left field and his work there was SEN
saticnal. Although the Bowman boy
got a bad start owing to bum an
kle. he hit for .29S. Bowen will hardly
BIO back in this league next season. He
was given tryout with class A CLUB
in the Western Association, but was
turned back when that club went
broke
Americus times-recorder. [volume] (Americus, Ga.) 1891-current, 1914-08-30

for berths higher up, quite number
of them will return next season ana
help Americas cop another rag. The
kids have the habit now and they are
going to win again just to keep their
hands in.
But here they are, one by one:
ZAPKE, the Brooklyn trolley dodger
who helped round out the Muckalee
twirling squad. Zapke worked and
won several pretty games. His Init
game against Waycross the last week
of the regular season was the prettie@t
that has been staged down at Mucka-
lee park this season.
BILL BALES. This chap was turned
over to Americas by Savannah and
has made an acceptable guardian OF
the hot corner. Bills chief claim for
glory lies in his ability to sting the
ball. An average of .346 made him
valuable to the club. And feature OF
Williams hitting was the fact that he
delivered most of his blows at pinch
times.
BIG BOY BLANsIT. Blansit started
out strong with the Muckalees, but
pulled something loose in his whip
during his third game and was forced
to adorn the bench most of the time
The Chattanooga University boy will
be back next season and will make
a good, reliable pitcher. He has the
size and the stuff to set the league
agog.
BOB GEARY. Here is one of the
chief causes for winning the rag. Boo
bic leads the league as a pitcher and
smashed out an average of 308 with
