GOLD SPAV" LEAGUE NOTES

The league standings are now as
follows: Boosters .667; Crests 800;
Bards 800; Cats 200.
Harley Clark appeared behind the
bat Monday for the first time and
sure did well. But even the ''muz-
zle' didn't keep him quiet.
The Old Spavs had been in dry
dock since June 10, but the Cats
evidently didn't get patched up very
effectively during that time.
Dr.. Gendron expressed an opinion
that this column would probably not
feature the editors misplays Of Mon
day. We certainly wouldn't do any
thing to discredit the Doctors sa-
gacity.
There were times in Mondays
game when, we believe, several of
Re players could have been arrested
for what they wanted to say regard
ing the umpire S decisions. Instead,
hoWeve, they should be given a Car
negie medal for not saying it.
The baseball dance at the Glen
Park pavilion Tuesday evening was
a very enjoyable affair. The at
tendance was rather small, probably
owing to the fact that the evening
was rather too warm for comfort.
The music furnished by Pratt's
orchestra was excellent. The league
is planning to give a series of these
dances every two weeks, if satisfac-
tory arrangements can be made for
renting the pavilion.

--Rheun1a fiSn7?


Those Of US who are past middle
age are prone to eat too much meat
and in consequence deposit lime salts
in the arteries, veins and joints. We
often suffer from twinges of rheuma-
tism or lumbago, sometimes from
govt, swollen hands or feet. There
is no longer the slightest need Of
this, however. as the new prescrip-
ton, 'Anuric,' is bound to give i'm
mediate results as it is many times
more potent than lithia, in Kidding
the impoverished blood of its poisons
by way OF the kidneys. It can be OBJ
tanned at almost any drug store, by
simply asking for "Anuric" for kid
neys or backache. 1t will overcome
such conditions as rheumatism, drop

scalding and burning urine and sleep
lessness due to constant arising

NEW YORK, Aug. 1s.-The
board of directors and the paper
committee of the American News
paper Publishers association met
here Thursday and took steps de-
signed to bring about further re-
duction in the consumption Of
news print. The following tele-
gram was sent to all members:
Production of news print is at
it's maximum and there is no sur
plus stock on hand.
1.-The demand will soon increase
with no hope In sight of supply
sufficient to meet it. Monopolistic
prices now prevail ana will in
crease unless demand is immedi-
ately reduced to a point well be-
low production.
