run down, my stomach was in a bad
shape and could not digest my food.
My stomach was so sore could hardly

were numb most of the time. | would
wake up with cramps at night and l
was continually troubled with head
aches. My feet and hands would
break out with scaly blisters. Since

troubles have been entirely stopped

Big Car Performance
Small Car Economy

Women say its appearance captivates. It's
spirited lines, color and performance are
snartly distinctive, among motor modes.
The Essex Sedan has won special favor with
the growing numbers who prefer a closed car.
In the Essex, men say, are met the fine
qualities Of performance that distinguish the
best of high priced cars, with the economy of
cost and operation that is an exclusive light
car advantage.
When you know the Essex you will want
one. It's popularity indicates continued
shortage. Don't suffer disappointment by
delay in placing your order.

What is the Spell.
OF the Essex?

There is an enchantment about the Essex
that intimacy does not dispel.
For instance, many who ride in it only
few times, afterwards describe it as "a large,
high-priced car"
Of course this description is not true Yet
it is made in good faith. That is the dis
tinct impression registered by the ride.
1t is interesting that such an impression
persists about car so widely known and dis
cusSed. For fully half a million now init
mately know the Essex. And more than
10000 are in service.

A Ride Reveals
Essex Quality

Perhaps you have ridden in the Essex If
SO you know its appeal And you under
stand the pride owners manifest.
They regard it with real affection, the con-
fidence men reserve for merit
More than car Of unusual qualities, it is
coinpanion.. in action it seems part of the
driver, responsive to every mood Lettering
along at two or three miles an hour, or facing
long, fast tours cross country, the driver of
an Essex is always reliant; always confident
of his destination
Few care to extend the Essex to top speed.
But it is good to know that speed without
limit is underfoot if wanted.
Moreover, Essex power means acceleration.
1t gives Essex right. of way everywhere.

By DEMARLES DRYDEN.

Dear Old Quincy, Sept. 30.--One
Of the 10 experts cooking dope for
a single paper here comes up with
new line OF stuff that makes the
White Sox look mighty bad. This
expert has discovered that Roush,
Kopf and Pat Duncan have gray
eyes and these are the blokes who
have batted in most of the runs for
the Reds. As it is hardly possible
for the color of their eyes to change
between now and Wednesday it is
thought this trio will continue to
bat in some runs. We mention this
grave menace right here at the start
of the story hoping that Colonel
Fullerton will get busy in rebuttal
and tell us what was the color of
Joe Jackson's hair at the age of S
years. Something should be done
at once to Offset the gray eyes.
A night Of horror was passed by
the fish in search of pavilion tick
cts. The papers today are full of
narrowing experiences. At ii
o'clock last night one George Aull
went to the ball park and camped
at the ticket window. George stood
up and went to sleep like truck
horse on parade rest in blind
alley. His slumbers were broken
at 5 a. m. by the arrival of Russell
Smith of Burlington.
Hello" said Mr.. Smith. at looks
like we would get tickets for the
first game"
"I'll say so" replied Mr.. Aull.

Fish, Fans and Suckers Are
All on Tap In Cincy Peddling.
Usual Base Ball Classic Bunk

Thus with snappy conversations
did these early FISH beguile the hours
until they both went to sleep. When
7 o'clock came Matty Schwab, the
groundkecper swabbed up the sleep
crs and transferred them to the
main window where it had been de-
cided to sell tickets. One hour be-
fore the sale opened this forenoon
there were but 500 fish in line and
Mr.. Aull and the Kentucky guy felt
they had wasted the better part of a
night.
An important meeting of the Reds
board of strategy was held this
morning behind closed doors with
scouts out in front to keep off caves
troopers. Pat Moran, Fred Mitchell,
Alexander, Killfer and John Evcrs
constituted the board. Each men,
Der or the board addressed the Reds
in turn and told them exactly how
to lick the White Sox.
Evers Gives Good Advice.
When it came his turn Mr.. Evers
impressed upon the athletes the ne
cessity of biting the umpire only on
the hind side of the ankle. The front
side of his leg is protected with
shin guards of wood fiber which is
impervious to the sharpest tooth, so
Mr.. Evers says and he ought to
know. The meeting was rushed
through SO the strategists could
attend the races on the other side of
the river.
Speaking of the river, Sam Lever
has just reported after a perilous
voyage from Goshen, o. He is for
the series if Pat Moran will fix him
up with a ticket. You may remen-
Der Sam when he pitched for the
Pirates and taught school in the off
season. His home town is 20 miles
up the river and can be reached only
by boat. 1t is said Mr.. Lever set
out for the world series in skiff
last Tuesday, giving himself ample
time for the 2O-mile trip.
Lever Is Stranded.
When about half way to this port
the skiff got hung up on snag in
the middle of the river. Passing
boatmen saw Sam making signals
of distress, but thought he was an
owl or something Tapping its wings
for air. A tugboat finally rescued

Sam and now if Pat Moran digs up
ticket Sam sure will enjoy him
self. So will Jack Pfister, who has
left his Remington, O., farm to run
itself while he lamps the big show.
Well, the town was struck dumb
this morning, when Heinie Groh,
came out in print with a signed
confession accompanied by his por-
trait. His bum finger is broken in
stead of just bruised. and has been
since August 81, when a pitched
ball jammed it against the bat. Gee
whiz, if the fish had known that at
the time some of them would have
dropped dead. Heine assures me,
however, that the finger Is all right
now, but, gosh, how he was skeered
for fear somebody would find out
the truth at the time of the mishap.
President Wilson getting i'll when
he did sort of drew public attention
from Heine Groh's finger and he
got by with it right up until the
close of the season.
Groh Makes Confession.
In the published confession Mr..
Groh begs the fish to forgive the de-
ception practiced on them. 1t was
only d white lie, Heine says, telling
folks the finger was bruised instead
Of broken and he gave oul the false
statement in the interest of the ma
tional pastime. As far as we are
concerned Heine Groh is forgiven.
If he broke couple Of legs and said
it was nothing but soft corn which
would pass away in a few days it
would be ali the same to us. 1t has
been our aim to stand in with the
sterling athletes and make their
rugged lives as pleasant as possible.
Peter Harrison, the genial umpire,
wound up the season in a sad ad-
venture. On retiring Sunday night
Pete hung his pants on the door OF
his room. Somebody reached down
through the transom and frisked the
pants Of Sl03. The thief left SO cents
in change and Pete went over to
Latonia today and distributed the 50
cents where it would do the most
good.
