IN APPRECIATION,

We take this method of expressing
gratitude to those who so kindly con-
tributed toward the organization of a
base ball team in Welsh, and also to
those who pat:onized us last Sunday
when we played the Jennings nine.
Although we lost this gamee, everyone
who understands base ball, will agree
that we had them outclassed from
start to finish, and our cause for los
ing was only the lack of little prac-
tice in base running. Hoping that
this will not discourage the fans in
the least and that we will have con-
tinuance of their patronage, and at
the same time assuring you that in the
future we will be better prepared, we,
are, Yours truly,
WELSH BASE BALL TEAM.

Massage for Nervousness.

Light-that is, surface-massage is
a good corrective for nervousness.
Deep, seeking-the-bone massage, which
is used for liver complaint and for
obesity, is too severe for the nervous
patient. Besides, SO many of the
nerves lie so near the skin that the
region of the skin is the real seat of
operation for cure. Light massage by
coaxing the blood to the surface and
inducing new and stronger interfow
among them feeds the nerves and
strengthens them.
