YOU NEVER CAN
TAME WILDCAT
Mr.. DodsOn Warns Against Use
of Treacherous, Dangerous
CalOmel.

CalOmel salivates! It's mercury
Calomel acts like dynamite on a slug
gish liver, When calomel comes into
contact with sour bile it crashes into
it, causing cramping and nausea.
If you feel bilious. headachy, eonsti-
pated and all knocked out, just go to
your druggist and get bottle Of Dod-
sons Liver Tone for few cents, which
is harmless vegetable substitute for
dangerous calomel. Take spoonful and
il it doesn't start your liver and
straighten you up better and quicker
than nasty calomel and without making
you sick, you just go back and get
your money.
If you take calomel today you'll be
sick and nauseated tomorrow; besides.
it may salivate you, while if you take
Dodson's Liver Tone you will wake up
feeling great, full of ambition and ready
for work or play. It's harmless, pleasant
and safe to give to children; they like
it.-adv.

BY DEAN SNYDER.

They've called Ty Cobb the Georgia
Peach for the last Is years. but at
this point in the drama enters Peachy
George.
1t now remains for the world to start
calling the Brown star-THE GREAT
GEORGE SISLER.
This tribute is certainly due the SUI
perb st. Louis first baseman.
Pushed by one of the hardest hit
ting fields in the history of the game,
Sisler is climbing higher into the hall
of baseball fame each week.
During the last four years of Ty
Cobb's reign in the Johnson family of
swatters, the Brown first baseman
has been approaching greatness.
This year with the Georgian Peach
in the background, due party to a
getaway slump and later to accident,
Sisler has occupied the batting throne.
His bat has clicked through the first
half of the 1920 American League sea-
son at a All pace.
Each week he is being forced to ex
tend his powers. For looming back of
him is wonderful trio of rivals
Joe Jackson, iris Speaker and the
rampaging Babe Ruth.
AS is the general rule with all ball
players, their fielding improves along
with their hitting. A new confidence
is born in player, when he is con-
Meeting regularly. He takes bigger
chances. The crowd psychology boosts
him and the breaks go with him.
Fleet-Foot.
Like Cobb, Sisler is a fleet-foot.
There aren't any faster runners in the
big leagues than George. The slight
est hesitation on the part of a fielder
in handling a ball off Sisters bat and
that ball goes for base hit.
His sensational fielding at first has
revived the same kind of thrills that
Hal Chase used to give the customers.
He works overhead with quite as

SCHOOL BOND ELECTION
CARRIES AT CRESTVIEW

Crestview. July 26.-The election in
the Crestview school district on the
question of issuing $1,000 bonds. for the
purpose of building a school house to
replace the one destroyed by fire, re-
suited in a victory for the bonds the
vote being 46 for and against. The
bonds will be advertised and sold.
The new building will be located on
the site of~the one destroyed by fire.
1t is believed the old foundation can
be used, and many of the brick can
be utilized again: 1t is believed the
new structure will follow the plans of
the old one. in fact the same blue
prints will be used.

much grace as when handling the low
throws.
Sisler is a college product, having
filtered through the university halls at
Ann Arbor Mich. He is just in the
prime of his career, being 27 years old.
What Is Ahead.
Whether he can maintain the ter
rifle batting pace he has set during
the first half of the season is an open
bit of speculation with the odds m
his favor.
Cobb has turned in two full seasons
The Pensacola journal. (Pensacola, Fla.) 1898-1985, 1920-07-27

with averages of .42o and .41o, respec-
lively, in 1911 and 1912.
1t is high mark to shoot at but
all the boys are touching up the ball
this season.
With Cobb back in the game it will
be interesting to see If he can over
take Sfsler and the other three mem
bers of the select quarter of swats.
He'll have to travel some.
But Tyrus is that kind of a peach.
