Tohin of S.. Louis Feds Taken From
Mound Develops Into Fine Outfieder.
One of the most brilliant youngsters
in the Federal league is Johnny Tobin,
the feet outfeldcr of the st. Louis
club.
Tobin, who is tWcnty-One years old,
was Il pitcher until the latter part of
the 1911 season. He played on the
sand lots and with some prep school
teams in st. Louis. In 1913 he was Of
fered Il job with the Sloufeds and ac-
cepted it.
1t was soon seen that Tobin's ply
sique could not stand the strain of big
league pitching. He was too small and
too light. But he looked like real
ball player, and Fielder Jones decided
to try him in the outfield.
Tobin was an immediate success as
an Outfielder. He can cover ground
with the 1eetness of jack rabbit, he j
wonderful fielder and thrower, and
he's one Of the timeliest hitters in the
Gilmore circuit.

THE NEWEST REr1EDY
FOR
Eackaohe, rheumatism and Dropsy.

Kidney, Bladder and Uric Acid troubles
bring misery to many. When the kidneys
are weak or diseased, these natural filters
do not cleanse the blood sufficiently, and
the poisons arc carried to all parts of tho
body. There follow depression, aches
and pains, hcayiness, droWsncss. irrita-
bility, headaches, chiliness ard rheli-
matiSm. In some people there are sharp
pains in the back and loins. distressing
bladder disorders and sometimes obstin-
ate drOpsy. The uric acid sometimes
forms into gravel or kidney stones. When
the uric acid affects the muscles and
Joints. it causes lumbago, rheumatism,
govt or sciatca. This is the time to try
"Anuric.'
During digestion uric acid is absorbed
into the system from meat eaten, and
even from some vegetables. The poor
kidneys get tired and backacho begins.
This is q good time to take "Anuric,"
the new discovery. of DR.. Pierce for Kid
ney trouble and Backachc. Neglected
kidney trouble is responsible for many
deaths, and Insurance Company eXamin-
ing doctors always test the water of an
applicant before q policy will be issued.
Have you ever set aside " bottle Of water
for twenty-four hours? A heavy sedi-
ment or settling sometimes indicates kid
ncy trouble. The true nature and char
acter OF diseases, especially those of tho
kidneys and urinary organs, can often
be determined by Il careful chemical an
alysis and microscopical examination
this is done by expert chemists of the
Medical Staff Of the Invalids' Hotel. Ii
you wish to know your condition send q
sample Of your water 10 Doctor Pierce's
Invalids' Hotel, Buffalo, n. Y, and de-
scribe your symptoms. 1t will be eX-
amined without any expense to you, and

Lived Long Under Water.

A resuscitating machine, such as is
used by the United States government
In mine-rescue work, recently kept a
young woman alive under water for
one hour and ten minutes.
This remarkable feat was performed
during the session of the safety and
sanitation exposition in New York.
Conducted under the direction OF a for
mer surgeon of the United States bu-
reau of mines, the test was performed
for the purpose of illustrating the eff
cheney of mechanical respiration.
The breathing mask, which has a
double rubber tube extending to a
hand-operated lung apparatus, was
strapped over the girls nose and
mouth, and she was then placed in a
large glass-front tank.
Though submerged for one hour and
ten minutes. she did no breathing OF
her own accord.

arms is proposed by London paper,
inspired by the marching record OF a
Lancashire regiment. which boasts of
wellknown chiropodist among its
ranks. This regiment has made the
hardest practice marches without a
man dropping out. The reason is the

Of duty. the oldier-chiropodist spends
his day peeling and pairing. II every
regiment had the same advantage,
such things. as retreats from Mons
might be made without discomfort.
Besides, the thing which saved the
British on that occasion was the bad
state Of the German feet, due to new
boots. The National Society of Chi
ropodlsts, which has a clinic in Lon
don for the free treatment of soldiers
and sailors, is enthusiastic over the
idea of a chiropodist corps. wearing

FOR WHAT OTHER PURPOSE,

"The moving picture show has be-
come powerful factor in arousing the
prejudice of thoughtless and weak
minded people against the liquor in
terests, and particularly against the
saloon" says the Liberal Advocate, a
liquor dealers organ.
"In virtually every blood and thun-
der and crime film produced there is
sure to be a scene depicting bunch
OF lowbrows plotting some villainy
from burglary to murder while lick
ing up liberal libations of liquor to
give them the proper amount Of cour-
age to accomplish their deed.
Each day thousands Of these films
are portrayed to millions OF men,
women and children in every part OF
the country, and those who know no
better, and many who ought to know
better, soon become imbued with the
belief that liquor is only manufactured
and saloons established for the pur-
pose of increasing lawlessness and
crime"

KANSANS TELL HOW
TO KEEP HEALTHY

Hundreds OF Kansans can tell
stories of the recovery Of health after
years OF suffering with stomach all
ments. A remarkable remedy, now
known all over the country for the
wonderful results 1t produces, Is in
daily use in Kansas homes.
This unusual remedy proves its
merit with the very first dose-its use
does not involve long treatment. II
is known as Mayr's Wonderful REM
edy. Here are extracts from the let
ters of two Kansans:
MRS. FRED NIEHUES. Kelly, Kan.
II have just completed the full
course Of Mayr's Wonderful Remedy.

Is nothing to what II has done for my
wife. Her complexion has cleared
and she no longer has those dizzy

Mayr's Wonderful Remedy gives per-
manent results for stomach, liver and
intestinal ailments. Eat as much and
whatever you like. No more distress
after eating, pressure of gas in the
stomach and around the heart. Get one

dition. And then 1t will let your wife

FROM MANY w,rNesses


In summing up complete refuta.
ton OF the statements sent out by the
National Wholesale Liquor Dealers as.
sociation in an article on Facts About
Prohibition in Kansas" Governor Ar.
thur Capper says:
Let US call the witnesses and see
what they think OF prohibition in
Kansas. If anyone should know, they
should know, for they live with It and
under 1t:
The governor Of Kansas says pro.
hibition is great success.
Every state official who has spoken
out says prohibition succeeds.
More than 700 editors and newspa.
per men OF Kansas in state conven-
tion, unanimously endorsed prohibi.
ton.
Every political party in Kansas ia.
vors the prohibition law.
No minister has ever opened his
mouth in favor of return CT license;
neither has any schoolteacher.
The president of Kansas Retailers
says prohibition pays.
The president of the State Bankers
association believes that prohibition
Is tremendous asset to Kansas.
One hundred and sixty.six bankers
have filed their testimony In favor of
the law with the Temperance society
OF the Methodist Episcopal church,
and only six could be found in all the
QfQfn uhn hntthtaA hn ,xyte 80 "a.
legislation.
The president of the Kansas Medi.
cal society believes in prohibition.
The president OF the Commercial
clubs of Kansas has said that prohibi.
tion has added real value to every
acre Of Kansas land.
The supreme court has testified in
the following strong language to the
benefits of the prohibition law:
The prohibitory law is well en-
forced throughout the state. 1t is as
generally well enforced as any other
criminal law. The enforcement of the
law distinctly promotes social welfare
and reduces to q minimum economic
waste consequent upon the liquor traf-
fee and allied evils. The saloonkeeper
and his comrades have been excluded
from effective participation in the poll
tics of the state"
And to completely settle the ques-
tion for all time the legislature Of
Kansas, not by a majority, but unan-
imously passed at its last session a
concurrent resolution affirming in no
uncertain language its belief in the ad
vantage of prohibition.
