Hartford women know how the
aches and pains that often come
when the kidneys fail make life
burden. Backache, hip pains, head
aches, dizzy spells, distressing urin-
airy troubles, are frequent indica-
tions of weak kidneys and should
be checked in time. Doan's Kidney
Pills are for the kidneys only. They
attack kidney diseases by striking
at the cause. Ask your neighbor.
Here's proof of their merit in a
Hartford woman's words:
Miss Mary Yeager, Union St.,
says: Several years ago had
trouble with kidney complaint and
my back bothered me a great deal.
AS others in the family had been
benefited by Doan's Kidney Pills, I

LEARN TO KEEP SCORE.

This year The Argus hopes to
print the box score of every base
ball game-professional, semi-pro
or amateur-that is played in Rock
Island. But The Argus could not
employ a sporting staff that would
be adequate enough to cover all
such games Of its own accord.
T. organizing your baseball team
it is just as essential that you ap-
point an official scorer as a team
manager, and be sure the selection
is just as favorable to your inter
ests. The scorer should have more
than ordinary knowledge of the
game-a man or boy who can think
and decide for himself.
A box score of your game is alb
solutely necessary. Without one
the mere story of your game lacks
about one-half its detail. The fig.
ures of box score are more con
vincing than words and also easier
to remember. The story of the
game and the box score are of equal
necessity to each other.
The Spalding Baseball Guide is
supplied with a detachable set Of
the revised rules. If you are going
to keep score for your team, get &
Guide and study the new rules, par.
ticularly those pertaining to the
score. Radical changes have beer
made in both the playing and .scor'
ing rules. A careful study of these
alterations should be made in order
to avert errors in the box score ant
summary.

INSIDE AND OUT.

Natural, quick witted baseball
ability for the field of play and
clean, sensible living out of work
ing hours are the chief require
ments which George McQuillan will
exact this year from Rock Island
players.
Finishing we'll up in the pennant
race requires not only good base
ball, but good habits as well; and
McQuillan has rounded up a club
of hustlers, who can be depended
upon both on and off the ield.
Inside baseball of the most in
tricate style will feature the Island
ers' attack every time batter goes
to the plate. Just as precise a sys-
TEN will be employed to govern the
playing when the team is in the
field. Guesswork will not be toler-
ated. There will be a well-defined
reason for every move.
Inside baseball will be employed
at bat as a means Of scoring the
most runs rs quickly and often as
possible. Inside baseball in the
field will be utilized as means OF
preventing the opposing team to
cross the plate.
Opposing pitchers will be studied
for their weakness while the team
is at bat. When afield, every Is
lander will be alert to detect both
strength and weakness of every OPP
posing batter. Under this system
the Islanders will be ready to dis
pute pennant contentious with who
ever is out in front.

ager has conceded that McQuillan

BEST SCORING CODE.
Every Reach scorebook contains

! Every Reach scorebook contains
a specimen of Harry Wright's scor-

adjudged the best. After mastering

score your game ACCURATELY.
Sooner or later you will become
so proficient at keeping score that

to prove every box score by the fol-
