Tanlac's widespread and ever

Tanlac is composed of the most

majority of the crowd were out to
see Wilbur Cooper in action and,
in that respect, they surely got
their moneys worth and then
some. With Don Dougan handling
his shoots in big league style
Cooper showed the fans some of his
real goods and retired the visitors
in order, three of them on strike
outs. In the third inning he eased
up, but still the Oils were unable
to get man on and two more fan
ned. In the fourth, in an effort to
give them a start and make the
game more interesting, he tossed
the ball over the plate to the first
four batters and they were able
to get two hits, which, coupled
with an error and a fielder's choice,
made them a present of three runs.
This made the game stand 6 to 8,
and in order to give the visitors a
show, Cooper went to the outfield
and Harmer in the box. Cooper es-
tablished his ability as an outfielder
and brought the crowd to it's feet
when he made a sensational and
seemingly impossible catch of a
low, hard line drive by the first man
up, coming in and to the right on
| the dead run and getting the ball
with one hand a few inches above
| the ground. The writer has seen
big league games by the score, and
never has he seen catch to equal
that one.
To please the fans Cooper went
back into the box in the ninth and
| finished the game with two more
strike outs, and the fans went home
swearing that, with Cooper and
Dougan for battery, the local
team could trim the GAINESVILLE
Greys or Massillon either. And we
agree with Them

bat with a double, two singles and
base on balls in four times up. He
also scored three runs.
Cooper's two bagger would have
been a home run if the machines
and ground rules had not interfer-
ed.
Roach, who caught for the Pure
Oils here, was decidedly off form in
his work and made it impossible
for Degarmo to do his best work.
The inability of the association
to give away the automobile at this
game is causing them to book an
other game for next Sunday for this
purpose. The crowd was esti-
mated at 1000.
Presents Cooper with Watch
Just as the game was starting,
Mr.. c. E. Dougan presented Mr..
Cooper a handsome Howard white
gold watch, the gift of some of his
close friends and admirers of this
locality. Coming as it did from the
people of his home towns, the gift
was keenly appreciated. While not
much of his time is spent here,
Cooper calls this place his home,
and does not hesitate to speak of it
as such, no matter where he may
be.-XX.

How Better Than Pills?

The question has been asked-ln
what way are eChamberlain's Tablets
superior to the ordinary cathartic
and liver pills? Our answer is,
they are easier and more pleasant to
take and their effect is so gentle
that one hardly realizes that it is
produced by medicine. Then,
they not only move the bowels but
improve the appetite and strengthen
the digestion.
