suit of the series between the Chica.
60 Cubs and tue champion Philadel-
phia aggregation who occupied Flori-
da training camps at Tampa and St.
Petersburg, respectively, the separat-
ing distance being only a twenty-mie
boat ride across Tampa bay.
This series resulted in seven con-
secutive victories for the Phillies and
naturally in seven consecutive defeats
for the Cubs. OF course, experienced
baseball men recognize that spring
games mean little in the later pen
nant-race for the reason that manag-
ers may be trying out new players,
one team may be farther advanced
than the other. or one set Of pitchers
may have wintered in warm climate
and be ready to deliver the balls with
few more kinks than the other.
With this point conceded, the fact
remains that the loss of seven
straight games carries stigma with
many fans. The result Of the series
is apparent in Chicago. Whereas a
few weeks ago it was the vogue to re-
fer to Tinkers combined Cubs
Whales as probable winners,
the most polite of the Cub admirers
among the public now are inclined to
a huge Interrogation point. Cigar
store conversation already wonders
whether the slab staff of the Cubs is
equal to the test of championship

Chicago. April As long as
Charles Weeghman is president Of the
Cubs, they never again will indulge in
preseason contests with any other
team of the National league. Weegh-
man made that declaration yesterday
after hearing that President Johnson
of the American league would advo-
cate ban on such games between
major league clubs.
"As it is pointed out Weeghman
declared, those seven straight de-
feats we suffered at the hands of the
Phillies may raise unmerited doubts
in the minds of our patrons. Those
contests in no way indicated the
strength of the two clubs. but the fans
may be inclined to think otherwise.
"Tn such series a club has every
thing 10 lose and nothing to gain. Our
only chance TO profit was at the gate,
and as it happened we didn't even get
any money out of our games with the
champions. Never again for me!'
No Exhibition Games.
President Johnson of the American
league will ask either the National
league or national commission to en-
act legislation prohibiting exhibition

this Splendid Remedy
Compound Of Simple Laxative Herbs
Recommended for Constipa.


When a remedy has stood the test
of critical analysis and strong cOmpe-
tition for over quarter OF a century
and establishes Itself as the indis-
pensable household remedy in thous
ands of homes, it is pretty good evil
dence OF its efficacy.
Dr.. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin has
been on the market since 1889, it's
use being gradually extended until
now it is generally regarded by drug
gists as the staple family laxative. It
is a combination OF simple laxative
herbs, free from opiates or narcotic
drugs, gentle in its action and posi-
tive in effect. 1t costs only fifty cents
bottle and can be purchased in drug
stores everywhere.
Mr. Frank Klima, OF 1903 Ashland
Ave, Baltimore, Md, wrote DR.. Cald-
well recently that he had tried about
everything without being helped until
he got bottle Of Dr. Caldwelrs Syr-
up Pepsin. which he considers the
greatest known remedy for indiges-
ton, constipation and stomach trou-
bles.

A BEAUTIFUL FARCE.

As the years roll round our primary
election law shows up better as a
beautiful farce. All parties and near

They are kicking goah llkieks clear
through It, Men are ,tcalled upon to
vote for candidates whom they have
never seen and! Of whose character
they know nothing: Any man can
bob up for any office whether he has
any fitness or not. A man with
money and Influence plays with it as
a toy. The Non.partisan league is
using it to stampede farmers and is
getting them to pay a premium for
the privilege Of voting AS they are
told. The old pilitical caucus and con.
vention we're infants in political trick

Eggs To Be Sold By Pound in Future,
+++ ++t +tf
This Commission Merchant Declares

The sRying of Hattiesburg house.
wives for a number OF years that
Eggs ought to be sold by the pound,
is liable to change to notice which
will read Eggs sold by the pound"
according to local commission mer-
chant, who has taken much interest
in the gradual increase in the cost Of
living during the last two or three
years. He is strong advocate Of sell
ing eggs by the pound, should no other
method be found to grade them.
Eggs are now sold by the DOZEN
he continued, and the consequence is
that the buyers and retail merchants
are losers. The reason for this is that
we are compelled to ask the same
price for dozen eggs only little
larger than those Of partridge as we
do for the same number of large
healthy eggs. This is because there
is no method of grading eggs accord
ing to their value, after they have lef'
the hands of the producer.
"Peas, mushrooms, apples, peaches
and many other such products of the
farm are graded according to size
Some of this grading is done by hand
or by feeling how large the fruit Of
vegetable is, while other grading i
done by a sieve.
Grading of eggs by methods sucl
as those used for fruits or vegetables
is of course impracticable. The onl,
logical method, then, would be to sci
them by weight"
The Hattiesburg news. (Hattiesburg, Miss.) 1908-1917, 1916-10-04

One of the chief arguments against
selling eggs by the pound, however,
was recited by this commission man.
The fact that grading eggs would
raise the price, -.
Here, let me show yeu" he said,
and picking up nine eggs, placed them
in the scales. The hand pointed to II
ounces. One egg was removed, and
the balance showed weight Of little
less than 16 ounces or a pound. "You
see,r he continued, st takes time to
weigh eggs. There is no method where
by we can get the exact weight from
q number of eggs, and sometimes the
buyer would gain, and we would lose
or vice versa.
"There would have to be some in
crease in the price of eggs to pay the
merchant for his time in handling
them. Pasteurizatfon OF milk is a goot
thing. No doubt it has done much K
help keep the city free from disease
caused by insanitary milk but th'
milk men had to raise the price 0
milk to cover the expense Of pasteur
Iizing. It will no doubt be the sam
with eggs, and hardly know whethe
the buyers will want to pay this in
Il b. y n . T. l
creased price.
"But there has got to be some metf
3D." he continued. Il hardly knoN
whether the selling of eggs by tn
pound will be practical; If not, som
other way will have to be found"
