The Barre daily times. (Barre, Vt.) 1897-1959, 1914-07-03
WHAT NEURASTHENIA IS

Neurasthenia is a condition Of exhaus-
ton OF the nervous system. The causes
are varied. Continuous work, mental or
physical, withoutproper vacation periods,
without proper attention to diet and ex-
ercise, also worry over the struggle for
success, are the most common causes.
Excuses OF almost any kind may pro-
duce it. Some diseases, like the grip,
will cause neurasthenia. So also will q
severe shock, intense anxiety or grief.
The symptoms are over-sensitiveness,
irritability, disposition to worry over
trifes, headache, possibly nausea.
The treatment is one OF nutrition ofthe
nerve cells, requiring a non-alcoholic
tonic. As the nerves get their nourish-
ment from the blood the treatment must
be directed toward building up the blood.
DIR. Williams Pink Pills act directly on
the blood and with proper regulation OF
the diet have proved of the greatest bene-
fit in many cases OF neurasthenia. A
tendency to an#mia, or bloodlessness,
shown by most neurasthenic patients, is
also corrected by these tonic pills. Your
own druggist sells DR.. Williams Pink
Pills.

vous System" and "What to Eat and How
to Eat will be sent free by the DR.. Will

McElwain A. A. Of Manches-

Superiority
BY HARD HITTING
AGAINST LAIRD
Game Was Ended in Fifth
Because of Misty At
mosphere

A sudden downpour Of rain sent the
members of the Barre A. G. and the Nc
Elwain A. A. of Manchester scurrying
from lntercity park to the dugouts yes
terday afternoon when the second en-
counter OF the series between the two
teams had advanced five innings. Oh.
seryations were made and it vas ascer
tanned that the pluvial etfusion offered
no indications of suspension. Then I'm
pire Wiley announced that the game
was called off. At the termination of
the five rounds the New Hampshire lads
were once more in the lead, the score
standing 7 to A. The Naucres ester City
| leaguers for the second time clearly
demonstrated their superiority over the
Barre team and had tne regulation game
been played the outcome would have
been more humiliating on Barre stand
point than Wednesdays clash. That
same spirited play predominated in tn,
game of the yictors.
Laird, the Montpelier high school
twirler, was detailed to do the honors
for Barre. He was hit hard and espe-
eially when hits meant runs. Seven hits
for a total of Ia bases were made off
his delivery. Included in this list were
home runs by Connors and Holcomb.
The Vergennes lad sent the sphere on a
long passage over center field fence with
two tenants on the sacks in the third
inning. Brown, a southpaw, proved u
big puzzle for the Barre team. Many
opportunities We're presented to the
Barre team for scoring, but the required
hits were not forthcoming. In one ses-
sion the bases were choked with none
out. This was in the fourth inning
Brown arose to the occasion and retired
the side.
Connors scored the visitors first tally
in the opening inning with homer over
center field fence, after the first two
batters had been retired on strikes
Barre took the lead in the latter part of
the first inning. Mute was hit by
pitched ball. Sullivan reached first when
Flanagan dropped Holcomb's throw of
SuIlivan's bunt. Mute scored on
passed ball by Pastor. A single by Laird
scored Barre's second run.

van and Peduzzi accounted for run No.

Brown reached first base on Davidson's |
error Matthew was safe on Laird's |
wild heave over first. On double steal |
Brown scored and Matthew made second. |
Connors singled. Both runners counted |
ahead of Holcomb on his drive over CEN
ter field fence. A double by Flanagan
into deep right field and single by |
Donnelly scored McElwain's last run.
In the latter part of the fifth, Laird I
singled to center. Fowle was passed.
Both advanced base while Tomasi was
being retired by MISSY. Peduzzi's dou-
bic into left field scored both runners.

Rootmaker,s COMPLAINT.

do you know why American mems
feet always look ugly?" said boot
maker. mo? Well, then, I'll tell
you.
American mems feet look ugly be-
cause they have their shoes polished
while wearing them-an iniquitous
practice followed nowhere else in the
world.
Everywhere else men on retiring
slip trees into their shoes and set the
shoes outside their bedroom doors A
servant takes them and polishes them,
and after the dampness of their pol
ishing they rest for some hours in the
tree, and this does to them what hot
iron does to a suit OF clothes-it press
es them. SO to speak, taking out all
the ugly bumps and wrinkles, making
them like new.
But we Americans drop into an
armchair on high brass stand Our
shoes are polished on our feet. The
ugly lines of wear instead of being
moved by the process are confirmed,
rubbed in. And that is why our feet
always look ugly-as ugly as our
clothes would look IL we never sent
them to the tailor to be pressed"
