of more than $50 consecutive games
of play shows.
Felsch and Kauff, who will play
centerfield for the Chicago and New
Pork clubs respectively, are two. play
ers who have sprung into national
baseball prominence in the past few
years. Both are under thirty and have
yet to reach the height of their
diamond career. There are few out
fielders in the game today, however,
who can excel these two in general
value and effectiveness both at bat
and in the field. Each is 300 or

OuTFIELDs IMPORTANT

NEW YORK, Oct. 4.-The outfields
CT the clubs playing in a world series
form the final lines of defense and
much depends upon the ability of the
trio of players in the short but classic
contest staged each season for the
baseball championship. Defensively
these outfelders must be fleet Of foot,
sure catchers of long driven fly balls
and spinning grounders which have
penetrated through the infeld lines.
In addition they must possess a
powerful throwing arm, an accurate
eve for distance and direction and
quick but sound Judgment regarding
choice Of players when such emergen-
cies arise.

ICELAND TO INSIST ON
REPEAL OF PROHIBITION

REYKJAVIK, ICELAND, Oct. A.
There appears a chance that Iceland's
prohibition law soon will be repeal
ed. More than hundred of the coun-
trys most prominent men and women
have presented an appeal to the Ice
land Althing Althing (parliament),
in which they declare that three
years operation of the law has demon
strated that it has not fulfilled
single one of the aims which brought
about its enactment The amount OF
drunkenness in the country, say the
sigfers, was negligible before the
law was enacted

n the coming world series,

in the coming world series, meet
these requirements better than those
of any two teams which have met
in similar series in some past sea-
sons. There may have been single
trios which classed as high or higher
but it is extremely doubtful if two
world series clubs have entered the
big clash in many years more evenly
matched in high-grade outfield com
bnations those of the White Sox and
the Giants.
Collectively and individually the
guardians of the outer lines are star
aggregations and the all-round play
of these combinations is expected TO
be a feature of the struggle. The
very mention of the names of Jack
son, Felsch, J. Collins and Liebold for
the Chicago club and Burns, Kauff,
Robertson, Thorpe and Murray for the
New York team is sufficient to start
controversy among the fans. While
there is some possible doubt as to
how Manager Rowland will align his
ontheld in the opening game at Chic
ago on Saturday, it is likely that the
trio will consist Of Liebold, rightfield;
Felsch, centerfeld and Jackson, left
field. The Giants trio will consist
Of Robertson, rightheld: Nauff, CEN
serfeld, and Burns, leftiela

Based upon their records for the
season it would appear as though
Robertson had slight edge on Lie
bold in comparison of the work of
these two players in rightfield. Rob-
ertson outranks his rival both at bat
and in fielding averages while in the
matter Of speed on bases and stolen
bags, it is about an even break. Lie
bold has not played in as many games
as Robertson, but both have seen suf-
ficient service to establish their stand

There should be an exciting strug~

SAYS HARD ATTACK Came ,

Daughter Spent.
REMARKABLE INTERVIEW
Mother Says Young Greenville Wo-
man Seems None the Worse
for Her Experiences.

"a severe kind of rheumatism sud
denly attacked my daughter last
August and she had to stay in bed
or in a rocking chair for five weeks
She had an awful pain In the back of
her neck, around her shoulders and
across her back" said Mrs. Mamie
Alexander, Of 36 Ninth St., Sampson,
Greenville, as she began on March
21st to tell Of the remarkable results
Tanlac gave her daughter. "She was
so nervous she would jump at the
least noise. Often she cried out dur
ing the night and seldom did she get
good nights rest. From the time
the rheumatism attacked her until
she began taking Tanlac, she did not
get single good nights sleep.
"She had no appetite and also suf-
fered great deal with indigestion
She was under treatment for good
while but the medicine seemed to do
her no good.
'But in week after she began TAX
ing Tanlac, she had been made a diff
ferent woman, and now she is in fine
health. The Tanlac restored her ap-
petite, she is not troubled with iHdi-
gestion now, and those rheumatic
pains have left her. She improved
wonderfully after she began taking
Tanlac. 1t certainly is the finest
medicine I know of for rheumatism
and she is back at work now. Tanlae
is responsible for her being able te
work now, and her income stops wher
she stops work. She is so thankful
for what Tanlac did for her, and we
all recommend it as the best remedy
we know Of"
