SNATCHED FROM
THE GRAVE AS SHE
WAS READY TO DIE
By McManus

Nine years ago friends and relatives
OF Mrs. Kit Albaugh, Of Kendalv1lle,
Ind, daily watched her health fail un-
til she was Just skin and bones She
weighed only ninety-eight pounds She
was prepared to die, and expected each
breath to be her last one. Her heart
was SO bad that she couldn't 20 I'D or
down stairs without sitting down sew
eral times. Horrible dreams unnerved
her. Her heart Jumped and fluttered.
She could get no rest, and grew weak
er and weaker. After she had given
up to die she heard Of Hull's Super
lative. Here is what she says: Il
could notice different action in my
heart after I had taken Hull's Super
lative only three days. 1 soon began
to sleep better and eat better l grew
stronger, and for the past five years
l am feeling like new person. l have
gained fifty pounds and can do more
work now than I ever could before in
my life. only wish could tell every
sufferer about this wonderful medicine
SO they could get we'll like l did,
The A. ]. Hull Medicine Company,
of Findlay, O., has thousands Of testi-
monials just as wonderful as that OF
Mrs. Albaugh, and what Hull's Super
lative has done for her and suffering
humanity in general it certainly should
do for you. 1t has a wonderful record
of cures for the past twenty years. 1t
is made of roots, barks and one berry.
1t is natures great helper.
Hulfs Superlative is sold by all
druggists on positive money-back
guarantee, and any man or woman VINO
is sick or ailing-no matter what the
condition or how serious-should lose
no time in taking this preparation, for
if it does not help you your money will
be returned.-Adv.

Transfer 30 Bass from
Their "Winter Quarters

Thirty large bass we're taken from
the winter pond Thursday afternoon
by members Of the Wayne County
Fish and Game Protective associa-
ton, and transferred to a breeding
pond nearby.
The purpose of the association is
to breed and raise good game fish for
the waters Of various small lakes and
rivers in the county, and to protect
the fish in order that the fishing
sport may not die. Two ponds are
kept by the association where the
fish are wintered and bred.
The annual meeting of the associa-
ton will be held Tuesday night. May
Z, in the circuit court room. There
will be no banquet this year.
Mrs. Mary Oleson, of Big Rapids,
Mich, recently received $21 from the
government as a soldiers dependent,
but returned 1t with the patriotic re-
quest it be used by the Red Cross.

ten HIGH men
TO COMPETE IN
TR|-STATE MEET
Will Try for Field and Track
Honors at Cine innati,
May 4.

Ten Richmond high school athletes
will compete for track and field hon.
ors In the annual tri-state meet at the
University of Cincinnati next Satur-
day, according to the list of entries
sent to the officials OF the meet by
Professor Bentley.
Those boys who have shown enough
ability to lead their coach to believe
that they might have chance to
place in the events for which they are
: entered, are the only ones included in
the list Of entries. This does not in
clude the entire personnel of the
Richmond high school track team.
Richmond athletes will take no part
in several Of the events at the Cinein-
natl meet on account of lack of suit
able material, Coach Miller said. He
recommended no one for the javelin,
discus, broad jump, hop, skip and
jump, 120-yard hurdles or the shot
put, and unless some athletes show
decidedly more ability in these events
than they have shown so far this sea-
son, Richmond will not participate.
There are good men. however, entered
in the 100.yard dash, pole vault $50
yard run, and other dashes and hur-
dies Of intermediate distance.
The principal trouble the coach has
encountered this season lies in the
lack of experienced men for the track.
With one or two exceptions the team
is composed of untried men who have
never competed before In high school
meets. Captain Crafts is the only man
on the team who has had any great
amount of experience and Richmond
high school is expecting great deal
OF him in the pole vault and 440-yard
dash. He is also member Of the re-
lay team.
Following are the entries made by
Richmond high school: 10O-yard dash,
Emslie, Smith and Motley; pole vault,
Crafts and Gardner; .SS0-yard run.
Robinson. Ballinger and Reed; 44O-
yard dash. Crafts and McMahan; re-
lay, Emslie, Dollins, McMahan. Graf
fis, Robinson and Reed; 220-yard hur.
Cureton; 220-yard dash, Emslie. Smith
dies, Eversman, Motley. Dollins and
and Cureton; high jump, Dollins and
Robinson.

member of the Giants in 1902 and was
among the bunch of misfits that John
McGraw released when he took hold
of the club. Hendricks, who was an
outfielder, later caught on with Wash
ington. but was cast adrift in 1904.
The first club he managed was the
Springfield club in the Central league
in 1906
Since 1906 none Of his teams ever
finished out of the first division. and
in twelve years only one fell as low
as fourth. Some record? You said
it. He won one pennant with Spring
field, three with Denver in the West
ern league and one in the American
Association with the 1917 Indianapolis
club.
Hendricks is smiling, good-natured
creature, something like Bill Donovan
and has the happy faculty of making
driver. "a word of encouragement
is better than a book of knocks" is
the Hendricks motto. He is fine
Judge OF ball talent and in the West
ern and American Association much OF
his success was due to his ability to
blend teams with cast-offs from big
league outfits and promising young
sters and the combination usually
worked beautifully and played tidy
ball. Hendricks should make good IN
the majors. He has the ability and
personality and it won't take him long
to absorb the necessary experience.

The dopesters are practically unani-
nous in handing second place in the
American league race to the Red Sox.
Those who disagree go further ana
hand them the championship. Hugney
Jennings of the Tigers is one OF the
latter gentry. Jennings picks them on
the strength of their pitching stair,
holding the curving corps is stronger
than ever through the addition OF Joe
Bush. But we aren't quite sure that
Ed Barrows crew is coming home in
front. nor vet in second place. NO
team ever won a pennant with an I'M
certain infield. And if the Red Sox
infield isn't more or less uncertain
ask you, what is?
Hoblitzel, though aging, is still an
acceptable first baseman, and Scott,
while he isn't Barry by any means,
will do at short. McInnis, of course,
is a wonderful ball player; he proved
this while playing first base for the
Athletics. But will he be the same
shining scintillant at third-a position
that is in many respects different from
his old one? Barrow had pinned his
hopes in Johnny Evers' starting at
second, but Johnny has evidenced MS
annual case of temperament and is no
longer with the club. The veteran
Heinie Wagner is back in the fold, put
a youngster, Dave Shean, who dnme
from the Reds in trade, Is cavortlng
around the keystone cushion.
Hoblitzel, Shean, Scott and McInnls
form a better sounding combination
than a playing outfit, for Mclnnis,
whose presence would add strength to
any battle array, has yet to prove that
he is a third baseman, and Scott and
Shean have yet to prove they can
work together as a fast moving,
double play team at second and short.
This is the one big reason we are IN
clined to rate the BostOaese as an I'M
certain proposition.
Jack Graney Of the Indians Is the
best sunfielder in the American league.
Il don't see what the kaiser wants
with a place in the sum-" says Graney.
Its a tough job"
The Southern league is still haven
for the old boys. Kid Elberfield who
probably wouldn't be drafted If the age
limit were raised to sixty-nine, is with
Little Rock, and Tommy Leach, who is
equally as adolescent, is with Chatta-
nooga. Theodore Breitenstein, the IA
nous old left-hander, went into the
Southern league and pitched ten years
of winning ball after his arm had gone
absolutely dead" in the north. Otis
Stockdale experienced a similar re-
iuvenation. For years he was the star
pitcher of the Memphis club.
Here's something you fans should
know about Jack Hendricks, who IS
to guide the Cardinals into
a place in the sun this season. Hen
bricks is a graduate Of Northwestern
and practiced law three
years in Chicago before taking up
