SEATTLE, Aug. 27.-Joe Nc
Ginnity tried again to save the
day for his Tiger team yesterday,
after Hendrix had been pounded
numerically in the third. But
McGinnity was also hit hard, the
Giants slamming out seven hits
and one run off him. Final score,
80.
Tacoma had a splendid chance
to score in the first inning. With
three on, and two out, Ward
knocked a short fly to center.
Two runners had crossed the rub
Der before the ball came down.
Ward, running like . deer, got
one mitt on the ball and chung to
It. His catch was a sensation,
and he was given tumultous APP
plause by the Seattle fans.

Says Indigestion comes from an
excess OF hydrochloric
acid.

A well-known authority states that
stomach trouble and indigestion is
nearly always due to acidity-acid
stomach-and not, as most folks be-
lieye from a lack of digestive Juices
He states that an excess of hydro
clloric acid in the stomach retards
digestion and starts food fern enta-

in a can, forming acrid fluids, and
a toy balloon. We then get that
heavy, lumpy feeling in the chest, we

heartburn. flatulence, waterbrash, or
nausea.
He tells us to lay aside all digestive
aids and instead, get from any phar-
macy four ounces Of Jad Salts and
take tablespoonful in a glass of
water before breakfast while 1t is
cffervescing, and furthermore, to
continue this for one week. While
relief follows the first dose, it is i'm

move the gas making mass, start the

PRETTY GIRL: AFRAID
TO FACE HER HISTORY
Seeks Aid in New Britain to Get
TO Man in New York.

| Helen Mueller came out of the
| everywhere to the offices of the
Charity Organization Friday afternoon
and left fifteen minutes later for parts
unknown by way of the back yard
| Miss Elsie Osborn and Miss Cora
| Beale started on a hunt for the girl
as soon as they found she had gotten
away, but so far they have found no
| trace of her.
Similar incidents occur every day
at the office of the Charity Organiza l.
! ton, but Miss Helen Mueller was no
ordinary supplicant for aid or charity.
she was dressed like a bird of para
disc, like a model from a Fifth ave-
nue. fashion store. Her story was
that of Innocence strayed from it's
mamma Or "A babe in the wood"
She had come here from Hartford and
wanted to get back to her man in
New Y DIRK. She had no relatives and
no friends and this man was willing to
protect her if she could once get
there
She told Miss Osborn that when
her parents died a short time ago in
New Y ork they left her a small for
tune. She had been living on this
in Hartford for three months, but
wanted to get away from there now
that the money was gone. you
must understand she said with q
deprecating shake of her plumes,
that Hartford is not a safe place
for a girl to stay alone. a girl who
is as attra ctive as I may have to
suffer many insults from the rude
natives. Besides the people there
are SO commonplace" New York.
on the other hand, she thought was
perfectly wonderful"
Miss Osborn took pity on her and
gave her something to eat She also
arranged a place where she might
stay over night Then she suggested
with the rules Of the organization,
she would have to make a few in
quiries in Hartford. While this was
being done, Miss Mueller remained in
the next room The stenographer,
however says that she listened
anxiously for what she might hear
through the keyhole. What she
heard was evidently not to her liking,
for she stepped out to the door 'for
breath of air." The bird had
flown when Miss Osborn had finished
her telephoning. 1t is believed she
took the $50 train for New York.
More than twenty girls have come
to Miss Osborn with similar stories
this winter. They have been strand
ed in the city and hunger usually
drove them to the Offices of the Char
ity Organization Inn They have always
been helped III some way because
it is felt one of them may be greatly
benefited by getting a fresh start in
life.

I always carry large stock Of
Swamp-Root and it has a steady de-
mand for kidney, liver and bladder

it is a common occurrence for me to
sell to people who buy the remedy on
the recommendation of others who
