SAN FRANCISCO.-The process of elimination of those players who fail to make the required standard already is under way at the various training camps where the teams or the Pacific Coast baseball league are going through their preliminary practice. A number of would-be dia 'mond stars have had their hopes crushed al least for the present sea son.
 Del Howard. manager of the Oak land Club, has. sent a half dozen back home, including Schnell, Hurly Mcbride and St. George, and the Oaks boss has stated that there vii! be several others who are likely to follow the same trail unless there is considerable improvement in their playing qualities.
 One of the principal needs of the San Francisco Club at this time IS first class regular catcher and manager Graham is still combing the country in an effort to find player who will fill the bill.

John c. Soutter Making
Important Changes to Store

John C. Soutter, owner of Soutters
Twenty-Five Cent Department Store,
has closed negotiations with the own
ers of the Hotel Carlton, whereby he
has secured possession of the old
passageway from Court street to tho
hotel, which has divided the building
occupied by the store, about midway
between Market street and Blackberry
street.
This passageway, which for years
las p. divided IN ent:tn.e to what was
formerly the old White Hall Hotel,
and in more recent years the Carlton
has been n mater OF Inconvenience

done business in the building. It's

room from front to rear of the store
will mean much not only to the store
but to patrons as well.
Contractors are busy now on alter
ations to the store involving the re-
moval of this passageway, which will
provide additional room for various
first Iioor departments and increased
facilities for the comfort of the shop
ping public. The central stairway to
the upper floors will be removed,
elevator service will be installed, and
other alterations carried out which
will completely change the interior
appearance of the store and add to
its attractiveness and advantages.

BELL WILL GET
AUTOMATICS
Vice President Kinnard An
nounces Extensive Plans
For Company at Hearing

Hearing on the Bell Telephone
Company's application to continue
the Federal telephone rates in Penn
sylvania after December 1 before
the Public Service Commission de-
veloped the interesting information
late yesterday afternoon that the
Bell company had placed orders for
automatic telephones, but that 1t
would be a couple of years before
they could be installed. This came
out during examination of l.. II.
Kinnard, vice-president and general
manager of the company, the wit
ness the company presented to in
form the Commission regarding the
reasons for the continuance.
Mr.. Kinnard asked the Commits
sion to make fair valuation of the
company's properties and then fix a
reasonable rate of return. He sug-
gested s90,000,000 as valuation and
8 per cent as the return. Commits
sioner James S. Benn contended that
from some of the figures submitted
the company was now asking about
II per cent, but this was not agreed
to by the company official who point
ed to changes in valuations. During
questions on the reasons for the mil
lions set aside for the next three or
four years the fact that the COM
pany intended to install automatics
was developed.
These facts and sheets of carefully
prepared estimates and figures show
ing that the traffic cost of the Bell
Telephone Companys service in
Pennsylvania had advanced from
17k cents to 35 cents out of every
dollar expended between 1914 and
1919 and that cost of supplies had
gone up over 62 per cent in the
same period together with a declara-
ton that further wage increases
were to be looked for either this fall
or next winter were the salient fea-
lures of the testimony.

with eczema, blotches, ringworm, rashes
and similar skin troubles. A little zemo,
obtained at any drug store for 35c, or
$1.00 for xtralarge bottle, and prompt
ly applied will usually give instant relief
from itching torture. It cleanses and

disappearing liquid and is soothing to
the most delicate skin. It is not greasy,
is easily applied and costs little. Get

Says His Prescription
Has Powerful Influence
Over Rheumatism

DIscOverer Tells Druggists Not to
. Take Cent of AnyOne's Money
Unless AIlenrhu Completely Ban
ishes All Rheumatic Pains and
TwinEes.
Mr.. James II. Allen suffered for
years with rheumatism. Many times
this terrible disease left him helpless
and unable to work.
He finally decided, after years of
ceaseless study, that no one can be
free from rheumatism until the ac-
cumulated impurities. commonly call
ed uric acid deposits. were dissolved
in the joints and muscles and ex-
PEELED from the body.
With this idea in mind he consult
ed physicians. made experiments and
finally compounded prescription
that quickly and completely banish-
ed every sign and symptom of rheu-
matism from his system.
He freely gave his discovery to
others who took it, with what might
be called marvellous success. After
years of urging he decided to let suf-
ferers everywhere know about his
discovery through the newspapers.
George A. Gorgas has been appoint
ed agent for Allenrhu in this vicin-
ity with the understanding that he
will freely leturn the purchase
money to all who state they received
no benefit.
