IaSA nat Is as funny as the Dupont
whiskers.
Working in one of Washington'S
hotels is a undersize, shifty-eyed lad
of nineteen or twenty. One look at
him and you can tell exactly what
he is-a dope.
This lad is not only a habitual
morphine user, but is we'll supplied
with the drug, and sells it to the
dopes that stop at the hotel am
told
After his work is done at the hotel
he goes to an all-night lunchroom
frequented by race horse men and
gamblers to sell the dope.
AS he is we'll supplied with money
and has been seen playing pool for
fifty dollars a game, though not an
expert player, it looks very much az

stores Health.

~ am seventy years old, but since
taking Tanlac I feel as we'll and
strong as I did when I was a young
man, and can do as much hard
work in a day as any man thirty
years younger than I am," said
J. P. Heady, a we'll known retired
farmer who lives at Kearney, Mo-,
while in the Owl Drug Store in
Kansas City few days ago.
"Well, sir, when commenced
taking Tanlac," he continued, 81
had been told that my case was
hopeless, and that could only live
a short time. My stomach had been,
in bad condition for many years.
but for the past eighteen months I
was about past going altogether.
Everything I ate would sour and I
would be bloated with gas for hours
at a time. My liver was in bad
condition, too, and I was consti-
pated so badly all the time that I
had to take laxative every day.
Then in addition to this, l had
rheumatism in my feet and legs so
bad that I was not able to walk
half the time. l didn't know what
good nights sleep was, and
finally got so weak and rundown
that I was just about down and
out, so far as health and strength
goes. No treatment or medicine l
took seemed to do me the least bit
of good.
"I had heard a great deal about
Tanlac and the good it was doing
so many people, so 1 thought /
would give it trial. The very
first bottle made a big change in
my condition, and from that time
on / picked up about as fast as a
man possibly could. I just kept on
until I had taken ten bottles of
Tanlac, and now my troubles are
all gone, and I feel fine all the
time. My appetite was never bet
ter, and I eat things now that I
haven't dared touch for years, and
l never suffer afterwards. The
rheumatism is gone, too, and I
never have an ache or pain. I got
about ten hours good, sound sleep
every nlgnt. MY general nealtn Is
better than it has been in many
years, and my entire system has
been wonderfully built up. I can
do all sorts of hard work now, and
it doesn't tire me but very little.
Yes, sir, Tanlac can't be beat, and
III tell the world that it is the
best medicine l ever saw in my
life"

PLANS ARE MADE
FOR TRIPLE TIE
PLAY0FF SUNDAY
Commercial League Clubs to
Settle Standings This
Week; City Series
Starts, Also.

Final plans to play off the three
cornered tie for the 1919 champion
ship of the Saturday afternoon,
class B Commercial league, between
the Item Biscuit company, Western
Union and the Orchard-Wilhelm
teams, were completed at meeting
of the three managers at meeting
ternoon at the office of Park Com
missioner Falconer.
| The first battle will be staged at
$3.50 o'clock Saturday afternoon at
Luxus park, Twenty-fourth and Vim
ton streets, between the Item Bis
cult company and the Orchard Will
helm teams, and the winner of this
contest will mix with the Western
Union aggregation on Sunday after
noon at the same place and same
| hour.
Both of these contests are prom
lsed real treats as these teams have
| been staging some hard-fought bat
ties during the season, which was Of
ficially closed last Saturday, when
the Item Biscuit company team lost
to the Western Union, which re-
suited in the three-cornered affair
AS preliminary to the CONNER
| cial Sunday contest, the opening
gun in the city series, to determine
the championship of class c, will
be fired, when the ld-Herald
team, pennant winners of the Boost
er league, will clash with the High
land Park Pharmacys, champions OF
the Inter-City league.
Considerable Rivalry Exists.
Considerable rivalry exists be-
tween these two class c aggrega-
tions, and since they have played
remarkable ball throughout the sea-
son in their respective leagues. a
battle for blood is anticipated.
Both Manager Tony Costanzo, Of
the World-Herald team and Mana
ger Dworak of the Pharmacy lads
announced last night that their
teams are in the best Of condition
and ready to enter the fray.
! Work has commenced on Luxus
park, enlarging the bleachers. and
making repairs about the park. A
gang of workmen will also be put
to work this afternoon getting the
diamond in shipshape for the games
Saturday and Sunday, it was an
nounced last night
Murphy's Play Two?
| Although the Holmes White Sox
and the Nebraska Power company
teams are slated to clash in the
Greater Omaha league Sunday af-
ternoon at Fontenelle park at $3.50
o'clock, it was reported last night
in local amateur base ball circles,
that arrangements are being made
whereby the Murphy-Did-Its, lead
ers of the league, will play double
header, playing the Powers in the
opener and the White Sox in the
! second event.
However, it is understood that the
Murphys are opposed to this plan,
but Manager Lawler could not be
reached late last night. If the
double-he is staged and the
blacksmths win both contests, the
race in the class A circuit will come
to an end, it was reported.
Since the city series will start
Sunday, and the final battle III the
Commercial league will be settled,
all interest is being centered in
these two championship events.

OILERS OF TULSA
TO OPEN SERIES
At R0URKE PARK
Will Play Three Games With
Local Club, Starting This
Afternoon; GisIason and
Hemingway to Be Here.

The Tulsa Oilers arrived this
morning for the opening game of
the series of three tangles with the
Rourkes, this afternoon. Manager
Jackson promises them a reception
that will be as warm as any they
ever received on their own hot ball
grounds. He expects to clean the
series and start on the upward
climb to first place with these
games.
The confidence displayed by Jack
son has some foundation, for he
has corking new outfielder in Lee
at center garden and his two Grip
Piles, stars of the local club, Ed
Hemingway and Whitley" Gisla-
son, will be able to get back in the
game. Hemingway has played a
part of several games in the last few
days, but it has been noticeable that
he was not nearly as fleet of foot
as he had been before he was in
jured.
Now. Hemingway reports, the
old peg is in pretty good shape and
he will be able to step around lively
enough and run bases with his old
vigor. Gislason had a growth on his
left hand lanced and it caused a very
sore and painful digit. He was
forced to lay off a few days, step
ping in to fill an opening the other
day, when not fit to play. The
wound has healed and the crack
second sacker will be in the lineup
during these games.
