It Was a See-SaW struggle.
 It was an ideal day for the sport of men, The ntppy air put pep into the players and a sharp edge on the enthusiasm of the spectators. And the girls, how they did root! Both eIeyens had their feminine admirers tunities slide by to cheer their favor ties on whatever the small advantage was gained.
 The Crashos also had a splendid ter when the North Finders made their way slowly toward the Rose buds goal. Time and time they tried to buck the line of defense, but the East Siders held them at the five yard line. Three times touchdown was in the grasp of the Crashos.
 In the second and third quarters the battlers fought on even terms. the battle-ground. First one team would gain a few paltry yards. only to lose it against the terrific attacks of their adversaries. The game was and every player injected all there was in his system for the success of hls team.
 So strenuous was the game that action by both managers and the po- sitions shifted from time to time. Both teams resorted mainly to the forward pass. So. strong and evenly matched were the lines of defense of both teams there were few long runs.

Reilly and Gaynor played brilliantly for the Crashos- In fact, they all played a star brand of foot ball, and Charley Mahoney, as ref cree, proved himself an efficient off, cial.

The Red Blood Builder

Either you are in good health or you
are not. There's no half way. You
may think nothing OF being a little run
down. 1t may not worry you If you
look pale. You may think you'll be all
right tomorrow or next day. But will
you?
Certain it is when you do not feel
just right, you are not right. There Is
probably something the matter with
your blood. And while you can get
around and do your work you are leav-
ing yourself open to any OF the diseases
that are always waiting to take possess
sion of run down people.
When you are pale and easily tired,
when you cannot enjoy your meals,
when you lose enthusiasm, your blood
needs attention.
Take Pepto- Mangan for awhile. 1t
is ia great tonic. 1t will build up your
resistance to disease, and you will soon
feel stronger. The little red corpuscles
are. fighters. They battle with disease
germs and win out when there are
enough of them. Keep your system
we'll supplied. Then you will keep well
and you will enjoy life.
But be certain you get the genuine
Pepto. Mangan. Ask for it by the full
name" Guides Pepto- Mangan." Some
people take it in tablet form. 1t is so
convenient. The liquid and the tablets
have the same medicinal value. Look
for the name "Gude's" on the package.
