II HAVE never FELT
BETTER IN MY LIFE, "
DECLARES I'D, BOYD
Lives at 1909 Hamlin Street N.
E.-Claims He Never Has
a Pain Since Taking Dreco.

Il have gained "a pounds on Dreco
Gnd I now feel new life and energy
ttngling through every nerve and
muscle Of my body" said ]. D. Boyd.
q few days ago.
Il had a continual hurting in my
stomach for several months, and after
eating I would swell up and feel all
bloated. l could eat nothing without
suffering great pain afterward and
had a burning in the pit of my stom-
ach all the time. This trouble made
me very nervous and I had spells OF
pains in my stomach at night so I
could not sleep and would have to get
up and walk the floor on account OF
the distress. 1 lost a great deal Of
weight and SO much strength and
energy that I would just have to
force myself to duty. Ny condition
seemed to be getting worse every day,
and I began to think I'd have to give
up and stop of from my work, for
nothing. did me any good till I get
Dreco.
I've taken FIVE bottles Of Dreco In
all. and I'm glad to tell you that I
never felt better in my life than do
right now. I simply feel like a new
man, and I wouldn't take anything
IN the whole world for what it has
done for me. 1t has relieved me Of
the nervousness and the pains that
used to keep me awake at night, and
I can now sleep and rest like a child.
Ny appetite is fine now. and can eat
anything I want and plenty of it, and
] don't feel like I ever had stomach
trouble or indigestion at all. I have
gained II pounds in weight and be-
sides that I have gained back all the
strength and energy 7 had lost. The
best thing in the world is to have
good health and feel well. and I'm
more than grateful that I'm now en-
joying my share, for I've hardly had
a pain since taking Dreco. I'm ready
TO tell anybody what Dreco has done
for me. and what I believe it will do
for any one else in the shape I was
in"

Stores. Aliens in Alexandria, Bury's in

HovL1K HIT IN PINcHEs

Harry Krause permitted the feeble
and mental Josies to nick his delivery
for ten hits, as many as the Rourkes
made off Hovlik, yesterday afternoon,
but he made the Josies so distribute
the said ten hits throughout the nine
innings that they were unable to
mark up more than one, lone tally. As
result the last game Of the series
4 was duck soup for the Rourkes, who
copied s to !. The Rourkes took five
out Of six from Hollands men. May
they live long and prosper.
Krause hurled nifty game Of bali.
Any guy who lets team make ten
hits and knocks EN- dead when the
pinches come up, is pitching good ball.
The Drumners threatened several
times, but their bark was worse than
their bite.
On the other hand, Mr.. Hovlik, who
is something of firebrand twirler.
encountered divers difficulties in the
second, third and fourth. All the
Rourke runs were chalked up in these
frames.

Cyrus Forsythe started the doing in
the second. Cyrus cracked a triple
tojright and made swell slide into
third base, even though the bali was
still out in right field some place. The
ladies' like to see athletes slide, and Cy
believes in accommodating them.
kewpie Kilduff sent bit to right,
scoring Forsythe, and took second
when Sullivan took his time about
returning the ball. Burg sacrificed
and Jourdan made wild throw which
let kewpie home.
After Krug skicd in the third.
Thompson sunk safety to left and
went to third when Miller hit the
right field wall with a double. Krue-
gers high Texas Lacquer to center
counted Thompson and sent Miller to
third, from which sack he scored on
. passed ball. 1t was some passed
ball, too; Kruger went all the way
from first to third on it.
Krause Delivers.
AFTER kiiuuff and Burg had ground
ed to Williams in the fourth, Krause
sailed a single to center, and Earl
smith was punctured in rear Stat
byla pitched ball. Marty Krug sailed
: triple over Wrights bean, counting
both Krause and Smithy.
That ended it, as Hovlik refused to
allow the Rourkes to assemble their
hits in the remaining innings. In the
eighth Forsythe singled to center
and Wright let the ball trickle
through him. Cy got to third easily,
but Cecil Thompson coaching al
third, sent him home and Cyrus was
murdered by eight feet. He didn't
slide because Fusner ran UP the base
line to tag him.
The lone St. Joseph run was made
IN the fifth. Heating beat out an
infield hit, but was forced BY Fusner.
who was then sent to second BY How
