Cubs Will Play Ball No Matter Who

'OHe Vi our T6dQ6rS wants 10 KNOW
why we have been silent about the
so-called deals to purchase the Cubs.
Simply because we didn't believe
there was the pop-eyed interest in
these mushroom transactions that
some people are trying to stir up.
The "Cubs for Chicagoans" is a
slogan that is being worked overtime
at present. 1t really matters very lit
tie whether the Cubs are controlled
by Chicagoan or some inmate of
Portland, Me-, or Ore. The object of
the owners will be the same in either
case. The purchase will be made as
business proposition pure and sim

The argument is made that Chi
cagoan would have the interest of the
team more at heart, and would pro-
vide us with better baseball
That listens fine, but while on that
line, why not insist that all the play

These boys are in the game for the

they realize that if they don't put up
the best article of goods in their rep

It is the same proposition with the
club owner. He knows that winner
pays better than loser, and for that
reason wants team that will at least
finish in the first division.

oXING- ALL THE LATEST DOPE -BAsEBALL


Wolgast Shows Well.
Willie Ritchie will now be recog-
nized as lightweight champion until
he makes a match for another fight.
Then the hammers will be drawn, and
dope will be hashed out to show that
the Californian is a poor excuse for
a crown holder, and Willie will have
to go to work all over again to prove
his class.
There was no question of his super
iority over AID Wolgast in Milwaukee
last night at the end Of the tenth
round. He didn't win by several city
blocks, it is true, but he proved con-
clusiveIy that he is the best of the
135-pounders now doing business.
WoIgast fought a good battle, and
gave the champion a full evenings
work. He showed enough to entitle
himself to another fight over the
derby distance for the title, and it is
almost certain that such battle will
be arranged and staged on the coast.
There was little smuggling TO the
fight. In the seventh Wolgast was
f1oored and claimed Ritchie had
struck low. The referee refused to
allow the protest, and the incident
went into the registe; as mark
against the Cadillac man.
In the last round WoIgast rallied
fiercely, and bang-up finish made it
appear that he was in better shape
than the champion. But Richie had
the fight safe, and was content to rat
tie along for the last bell. If the fight
had been billed for twenty rounds it is
a einch that Richie would have been
in condition to go the distance.
Richie is champion, and to ques-
ton his ability to take care of the

UNREFRESHING SLEEP

The woman who is tired out, who
aches all over when she rises in the
morning, who feels depressed most Of
the time, needs just the help that
DR.. Williams Pink Pills can give her
new blood and stronger nerves.
The number of disorders that are
caused by thin blood is amazing and
most women are careless about the
condition of their blood. Quickly the
nerves are affected and the patient
becomes irritable, worries over trifles,
does not sleep as we'll as formerly and
is not refreshed by rest. There may
or may not be stomach trouble and
headache. This is a condition that
calls for DIR. Williams Pink Pills, the
nonalcoholic tonic.
Give DR.. Williams Pink Pills a trial
and the first sign of new life will be
noticed in your appetite. You will be
hungry by meal time. AS the blood
becomes enriched it feeds and soothes
the irritated nerves. sleep becomes
sounder and more refreshing, your
worries become less, your work lighter.
These are some of the things that
these tonic pills do. Try them for
any trouble caused by thin blood

Miflin County Farmer
Calls Attention to
Highway Made by State

Lewistown, Pa, Sept. 25.-At the
Lewistown end of the new State high
way, in the Lewistown Narrows,
stands the unique sign that accom-
panies this article. 1t was erected by
John Miller on his land. When the
new State highway was built the road
was changed from where it ran over
steep hill to lower down near the
river, where the land was more level.
The new road went through the land
belonging to Mr.. Miller. He contested
the right of the people to go through
his farm, saying that it would cut up
and damage his property, but the road
was surveyed and open UP. Mr.. Mill
ier carried the matter to the courts
here, where his contention was met
with defeat. Then he erected the sigE
that stands on his land facing the new
road.
Mr. Miller is a well-to- do farmer
and lumberman. The courts decided
on the damages to the land, but the
amount was far from what Mr.. Miller
thought proper.

Proper Food Put Him Right

The food experience of a physician
in his own case when worn and weak

IAN attack of grip, so severe it came
near making an end of me, left my
stomach in such condition 1 could not
retain any ordinary food. I knew, of
course. that l must have food nour-
ishment or I could never recover.
"I began to take two teaspoonfuls
of Grape-Nuts and cream three times
a day and for weeks this was almost
my only food. 1t tasted so delicious
that 1 enjoyed 1t immensely and my
stomach handled it perfectly from the
first mouthful. 1t was so nourishing l
was quickly built back to normal
health and strength.
"Grape-Nuts is of great value as
food to sustain life during serious at
tacks in which the stomach is so de-
ranged it cannot digest and assimi-
late other foods.

Nuts more widely used by physicians,
It would save many lives that arc

HIGHER PRICES FOR
GRAIN THRESH|NC
Farmers viii Be Compelled to
Pay Increased Rates
This Year

Selinsgrove, Pa, Sept. 25.-For the
hrst time in thirty years farmers of
Snyder county will be compelled to
pay higher prices for threshing their
crops of wheat and rye. Announce
ment has been made by the members
of the Thresher's Alliance that the
charge will be three cents bushel for
wheat and rye, and two cents bushel
for oats, which latter price is the
same as former years. In former
years all grains were threshed for
two cents a bushel.
Farmers in this section, in many
instances declare they will bind them
selves together and buy a threshing
outfit rather than submit to the
trust" methods alleged to be in use
by the Thresher's Alliance.
