awful cold which developed into
pneumonia and pluersy and left her
in such an awful condition she could
not take more than a teaspoonful of
nourishment at a time and many
times couldn't even swallow that
much. I took her to the hospital,
where she was operated on and stay

came home in as bad a fix as ever,
and we both thought she never would

Zone night a friend called to see
us and told me not to be discouraged,
that Tanlac would help her. Well,
didn't sleep any that night from
thinking about Tanlac and what my
friend had said. Early the next
morning I went down to the drug
store and got bottle of Tanlac, and
before the end Of the week I noticed
q change for the better in my wife's
condition. She began eating, and by
the time she finished her fourth
bottle she was doing all her house

felt so we'll she stopped taking it.
She picked up twelve pounds in

Saints Earn Their Modest Scores
Hard Playing-Bert HUMPHREYS
After the First Inning Shows
Some Artistic Pitching.

Experiencing some bad breaks and
demonstrating some bad baseball in
the pinches, the Highlanders, aided
by some poor stick work, lost both
games of yesterdays doubleheader to
the fast going Saints.
Bert Humphries, on the slab for
the Highlanders, turned in a grand
article of ball after the first inning in
the first game in which the two St.
Petersburg markers were annexed,
hut the inability of his Teammates to
hit when hits meant runs, caused his
defeat. The "Old Master" held the
Saints to six hits. three of which
were annexed in the opening frame,
and yielded one each in the sixth,
seventh and eighth innings which
were not costly
Ching, port slider was Manager
Bargers choice for the occasion and
would have turned in a shut out had
it not been for a bobble in the sixth
inning by Matthews. Gladu had OPEN
ed the inning with long fly to Bige-
low in right field. Ching became I'M
steady and walked Norton who was
held at second on Zimmerman single
to right field. Cashion hit one to Cox
who caught Zimmerman at second and
when Matthews attempted to complete
the double play his throw was wide
and Norton registered with the only
Highlander tally of the first game
Ching was invincible i'll the pinches
and barring this one inning was never
IN danger. holding the locals to four
measly hits. distributed throughout
as many innings.
In the second game the Highlanders
presented changed front, Corners
taking Smith place behind the bat
and Reed taking short instead of Gil
son. This combination failed to pro-
duce the right kind of results
Red Colbert was opposed on the
hillock in the center of the diamond
by willie" Wilson, who last year was
with the locals for time, being re-
leased because it was not thought he
would do. He won ia blame thing
for the locals when it comes to letting
them get hall games or Ease hits in
pinches. Willie had the better Of the
argument all the way through, giving
UP bat four hits to Colbert S five,
three bases on balls against four and
whitfield four to Colbert one. Ragged
support on both sides produced the
runs. Reeds error putting two Saints
in position to score while their third
marker was the result of a bobble by

BAD BREAKS AND POOR STICK WORK
CAUSE LOSS OF TWO GAMES FRIDAY

Roache at third An error by Mat
thews, hit and Bigelows error on
Gladu's hard chance were the con-
tributing factors to the locals first
tally. Our second marker was the re-
suit of base on balls, a hit and an
error by Morris, permitting thinner
man to count At this stage of the
game it looked like the locals might
tie up the ball game. it being the ninth
inning. Cashion had stopped at third
after his two ply wallop and Morris
error. Roache had grounded out
pitcher to first and Stewart had got
on on the error. Corners skied out to
short and Reed sent in Payne to hit
for Colbert. Stewart got venturesome
at first base and got in a chase
Cashion lit out for home and was an
easy out, ending a perfectly good bali
game on the wrong side of the ledger
Craig is scheduled to work this af-
ternoon and will, in all probability be
opposed by Hernandez. The Senior is
primed for the ARRAY, having lost his
last two starts against the locals.
