Women often become nervous and despon-

easily corrected by taking an occasional dose
of Chamberlain's Tablets. These tablets are
easy to take and pleasant in effect.

on Saturday Vaughn, the southpaw,

left-hander. is due to go to the mouhd
against Tyler, another portside HEAVIER
Just as the southpaws have the spot
light in baseball just so are these port
sders about to occupy the leading place
in an all-important boxing match. The
National A. A. will stage a special show

which will bring together Lew Tender,

This Is the best southpaw match of
the age. l.eft-handers are known for
their ability to hit. Ty Cobb led the
American League this year in batting
and Zack Wheat, an offside swatter,
topped the National League batsmen.
George Chaney is a 800 hitter any day
in the fistic. league and Tender cracks
