make his debut in the managerial
game as boss Of the new Akron team
in the International league. Hobby
has spent a few days at a time this
winter in Akron. getting his team
lined up and already has made a
great hit with the fans there.
Hobby began his professional career
with the Clarksburg, w. Va. club, and
in 1908 was picked UP by the New.
ark club. Newark sent him to Wheel
ing and the following year he was
purchased by the Cincinnati Reds
Charley Herzog decided in 1914 that
Hobby wouldn't be needed and he was
allowed to go to the Red Sox. His
work at first base and his cleanup
hitting while captaining the Red Sox
was one Of the bright spots in the
work of the team in winning the Am.
erican league and worlds pennants in
1915, 1916 and 1918. Hobby left the
Red Sox late in 1918 to offer his ser
vices to the government rs a dentist

The plan Of advertising the Aew

small wonder that Dreco has sprung
into such popular favor everywhere it
is introduced. You frequently read the

testimonials from persons residing
close by-many right here in the city,

word you read about Dreco was not
true, we would soon be exposed. Here
| is one of the recent statements receiv-
ed from a responsible home town man.
He is Mr.. J. Gregg, who lives on
r. R. c., Richmond, Ind, and says
"Dreco has surely done me a lot of
good. My liver is active again SO that

and for that reason recommend it to

Dreco is the pure liquid extract o.
many different roots, herbs, barks and
leaves, which act on the vital organs
of the human body. After taking
Dreco it is noticed that the stomach is
soothed and the gassy condition elm
mated; the liver becomes active. re-
lieving headaches and that dull tired
out feeling; nerves are quoted which
induces sound sleep; the kidneys are
strengthened; appetite increased;
bowels act with ease and regularity
and the whole system takes on re-
newed energy, vigor and vitality. Dreco
is harmless, pleasant to take and the
effects are quickly felt.

expert, has headquarters at Thistleth-

public and explain the merits of this

Phantom Horses Still
Walk Dublin's Streets
(James Stephens, in the Irish Edition
of the London Times)

Games Stephens, in the Irish Edition
Of the London Times)
Once. before the electric trans
came, Dublin seemed q noisy city; a
city of cobblestones and of mighty
horses that clashed sparks out of the
same cobbles. Carriage horses, dray
horses. outside-car horses (the for
eiSner calls them "side-cars," but the
inhabitant would be ashamed to refer
to them otherwise than as outside
cars.O
The city neighed in those days; 1t
snorted and whinnied; it champed on
its bit; it jingled brazen harness; 1t
tossed it's nosebag in the air to shake
the last oats from the southernmost
recess of the bag; about its ears were
birds innumerable; birds popped and
hoped under it's legs, winning the
safed to feathers.
There were jenus in charge Of the
gorgeous monsters, and they were
marvellous as their own horses; pur
ple-chapped, spiky-jowled, wide-smiled
hard-eyed. imperturbable ancients
caparisoned, not clothed, in frieze
many capped coats, balancing hard
shiny hats on one side of their heads
and with huge, hairy, chilblainy hands
They chewed tobacco, their mouths
were all to one side, and they ha6
great yellow teeth, two of which wab
bled.
| A nose-red city half as old as time
In the fanlight over every door there
were small plaster horses with one Les
up, with both ears cooked, with in

tiptoe, it was alert, vivid, it was &
sparkling eye, it was hoof! But
conversation languished under the
menace Of those thudding, deeply
whiskered fetlocks. Dublin was g
silence in a tempest, as it is now 6
solitude in a multitude.
Trans Replace Horse.
The electric trans came and a new
era. That Dublin is as remote as the
stone age. The horses disappeared
the birds are searching vainly else
where for like city of nosebags, &
city Of dreams. Only here and there
will you now see plaster horse in 8
fanlight; and Dublin, silent under thu
a.hing of those hooms, has not ye
recovered from the silence they hat
forced upon it. The streets then were
thronged, men and women went ou
then to look at the horses, to drown
themselves in the uproar and menace
Of the horses, and to this day the Dub
lin people do not speak in the streets
but they talk much in private and ar,

One result of so much talk of tre-

brought out young heavyweights in
swarms, although at that time no one
thought that there ever would be a
match that promised to attract mil

of promising novices have appeared
and by the end of the winter one Of
them may have forged into the con-
tender class. A majority of the
white hopes were numbering giants,
because the idea prevailed that only
q giant would have a chance to lick
Jack Johnson. The new crop is COM
