Have Curly, Wavy Hair
Like Natures Own"

Women who have trouble keeping
their hair in curl, or of securing the
desired wavy effect-and especially
those who realize the harm that the
hot iron does to the hair-will do well
to try the new silmerine method. In no
other way can they acquire such pretty
waves ard curls, having all the appear
ance of Natures own" And the hair,
instead of being singed, ragged or dead
looklrg, has such lively luster and
wholesome beauty. The curliness is
more quickly acquired than when a
waving iron is used, and it lasts con-
siderably longer. When the hair Is
combed out it is nice and fluffy. The
hair will be quite manageable, no mat
ter in what fashion it is done up.
If one will get a bottle Of plain liquid
silmerine at any drug store and follow
the accompanying directions, she VIII
be simply delighted with the result.
This product is Of course perfectly
harmless and there Is nothing sticky,
greasy or unpleasant about it. II is
also priced as a splendid, dressing for
the hair. AS so small Quantity is re-
quired at a time, a iew ounces will last
for months. adv.

Hickey Thinks Cards
.HaVeP ennant Chance

,2Sb; McHenry, 1886, and jack Smith,
.223, are the Cardinal gardeners. The
first three named will probably start
the season as regulars for the Cards,
role, In any event, the St, Louis out
field is well balanced, has a lot of
speed and looks like combination that
ought to hit consistently
The Card pitchers Schupp and Sher-
dell, left handlers, and May, Doak,
Tuero, woodward, Jacobs, Goodwin and
Haines, right-handers, may surprise
everybody. Haines is a. strong right
handler obtained from the Kansas City
club, and was rated as one Of the best
pitchers of his class in the American
association last season. Schupp, who
believes his arm viii be right for the
taking of his regular turn in the box
this year, will be big help to the
Cards if he can show his old-time form.
Sherdell is a very capable southpaw,
and May, Jacobs, Goodwin and Wood
ward, in particular, should win many
games for the Cards.
! Many Youngsters.
In addition to the players mentioned
| here Hickey took number Of young
sters to the Brownsville camp, but their
chances of horning in for q season s
meal ticket are slim in the face of the
athletes already enumerated
Hickey may have stretched his i'm
| agination little when he said that
| the Cards can do what the Reds have
done. The wish was probably father
! to the thought. But even so, the Cards
must be figured as team with enough
ability to prove a factor in the 1920
race unless injuries to players or some

their chances. Rickey's boys will play

of-fact pilot of the st. Louis Cards are
not shared by anything like an over
whelming majority of baseball experts
who have sized up the chances of Ma
tlonal league pennant aspirants in ad-
vance Of the opening of the season.
But they are well worth weighing.
Down in Brownsville, Tex, Branch
Hickey has big squad of players busy
getting the kinks out of arms and legs,
preparing for a series of exhibition
games with the Philadelphia Athletics
and later for the spring series with
the Browns in the Mound City
After a long winter season of deny
ing rumors that he would part with
Rogers Hornsby and Milton Stock, the
taclturn manager of the ST. Louisans is
busy working to get his players in
shape to make good his threat regard
ing the pennant, and there's no deny
ing that the 1920 Cards take rank on
league.
\ Hickey had quite problem to solve
AHl filling the first base position. He
Yilled 1t by engineering a trade with
Los Angeles. whereby he obtained Jack
Fourier. the hard hitting, flashy-
fielding first sacker of the Angels, who
comes back to the majors after fail
ing to satisfy the Chicago White Sox
in a number of trials. This time Four
nier comes back with a smuggling repu-
tation and he may keep it good in the
National league. AS a fielder he will
fill the bill without a doubt, and he Is
a good base-runner, too. So the first
base problem of the Cards is no longer
u problem.
Rogers Hornsby, for whose services
John McGraw would have parted with
$4,000 and three or four players, very
probably will play second base for the
Cardinals this year, At least, that is
the plan, Doc Lavan is being counted
on to fill the shortstopping job, and
Milton Stock, though reluctant about
signing his contract, will be seen al
third base in all likelihood.

the st. Louis infield will one of the
hardest hitting cornbinatons in the Ma
tional league. Hornsby is a sure 900

same. Lavan should hit $50 or better
and Fournier may club around 800.
The Cards catching staff, Verr

the bill nicely Clemens is a sturdy
