The Giants headed by McGraw ap-
peared on the neld at 1920 o'clock.
They were given a great reception by
the thousands already in THERE seats.
but were hardly more enthusiastically
welcomed than the White Sox who
appeared half an hour later. AS the
Giants flled across the field Benny
Kaun and Heine Zimmerman, who
were treated roughly in Chicago, wer,
especially warmly received by In,

al rlghthanded pitching in their prac

usual gray travelling uniforms.

New York fans watched the Sox in

The field appeared somewhat
heavy. All water had been drained
of well, but the lines were somewhat
soggy.
White has been a constant atten.

hand pitching, the Chicagoans ap-
parently expecting right handlers to
loppose them.

Suffering Among Poor

The rapid advance in the cost of food

and in some eases almost starvation
among the poorer classes of the Mexican
residents in Brownsville. Many instances
of suffering from this cause has been
brought to the attention of city officials
and OF the Charity Home.
Ii was said at the Charity Home this
mornin. that a number of Mexican moth
crs had brought their children there, asking
that they be cared for while the mothers
secured employment and contributed ~
much n possible 10 their support. In 20
far a. possible the home j. complying with
this request and 4 number of children are
being cared for. On Saturday the moth
lcr> come Ia the home and contribute A.
much a. they can from their scanty earn
Iing>.
IL the food prices continue To soar out
side assistance will nave To be asked for,
as the limited facilities of the home will not
meet the suffering that l. bound to follow.
The price advance * forcing into the ranks
of those dependent upon charity many fam
lilies that have heretofore been capable of
self support.

Lift Your Corns
Off With Cause

You reckless men and women who are
pes;ered with corns and who have AT least
once q week invited an awful death from
lockiaw or blood poison are now told by
n Cincinnati authority To use "A drug called
freezone, which the moment a few drops
are applied TO any corn or callus the sore
ness il relieved and soon the entire corn
or c%allus, root and all, lifts of with the
fingers.
Freezone dries the moment it is applied.
and simply shrivels the corn or callus
without inflaming or even irritating the
surrounding tissue or skin. A small bot
tie Of freezone will cost very little at any
of the drug stores, but will positively rid
feet of every hard or soft corn or
hardened callus. ii your druggist hasn't
any freezone he can get it at any whole
sale drug house for You.
