AS Chatty and Billie together
read other newspaper accounts they
were Mortified TO discover that
Bryant Dunning had skilIfully slip
ped out Of all blame. He had not
hesitated to say that 1t was Chattyis
fault, and minated why.
Chatty had not thought Of the

After Pud had left. Billie turned
grave eyes on Chatty.

Chatty drew her breath in sharp

During all her slow convalescence
Chatty had been making up her
mind.
She was through with lies ana
deceit. with tale bearing and gossip
with Islander and with trouble max
ing. No matter what IL cost, she
was going TO be honest. Being dis
honest had cost her her lover and
her ~self-respect: being honest
might at least bring peace.
But the impulse OF habit IL strong.
TO confess her shame TO Billie
seemed, for the moment, more than
she could bear. She thought up a
quick lie-then cried aloud, mo,
no"
NO? No what?- asked Billie,
wonderingly.
Chatty gripped her courage hard
and began.

BY BABE RUTH

Another mistake that young
pitchers make is trying to put too
much "on the ball" Herb Pennock
was talking on the bench the other
day when some one asked him what
was the most important thing about
pitching.
Get that first pitch over the
plate" was Pennock's answer. IF
you do that you've got the hitter in
the hole from the start. If you don't
then he's got you in the hole, and
you can't work on him the way you
should"
incidentally the Yankees would
have won a lot more ball games to
date if our pitchers had done that
very thing. Wildness has lost sew
eral of the games we've lost
this spring And I guess if that's
true IN the big leagues its true with
the kids on the sandlots, too.
Any time a kid can learn to put
that ball where he wants it. he
won't have to worry much about the
stuff" he has. A straight one, high
and inside will foot a lot more hit
tiers than a curve that breaks right
across the middle of the plate

many people right here in Indian
apolis and the immediate vicinity
who will gladly tell you that they
owe their glorious health and
strength to the powers Of this new
medicine All who suffer from all
mentS of the stomach, kidneys, liver
or bowels, or from rheumatism, neu-
ritis or nervousness, should call on
the Konjola Man who is explaining
all about this new medicine at
Hooks Dependable drug store, Hi
nois and Washington streets, this
city, and find out what this new
medicine has done and is doing.
Learn why so many people call 1t
the master medicine, and why 1t has
been able to earn the enyiable repu-
tation of being the medicine with
more than million friends. You
are under no obligation. You will
be shown hard, cold facts, and your
own good judgment will be allowed
to guide you. Consider, as an eX-
ample of how this new medicine
works, the happy experience that
Mr.. c. L. billiard, 118 East Vermont
street, this city, had with it. Mr..
billiard recently called on the Kon-
lola Man, and made the following
statement:
81 owe this new medicine, Kon-
lola, a debt Of gratitude for the
wonderful relief from suffering that
it brought me. I had suffered for
long time from the poor condition
of nv stomach. Food soured, and
caused all the distress that usually
comes when this organ is not IN
first class condition. I had to be
very careful in choosing what l ate,
or else suffer intensely afterWard-
NV kidneys caused their share OF
trouble, and there always was a dull
pain across my back. My liver was
sluggish, and there was a dull pain
in my right side My tongue was
coated. and I was a victim Of Sc
we're dizzy spells. Spots appeared
before my eyes. My condition In
general left much to be desired.
"Koniola came SO highly recon-
nended, and so many local people
we're praising it, that I finally made
up my mind to give it a trial. What
a pleasant surprise there was in
store for me! I am again well,
thanks to this new medicine! l can
eat anything I care to, and the food
digests perfectly, and never causes
me the least bit Of trouble. My kid
news and liver are in first class con-
dition. Gone is the backache, and
the pain in my side. My tongue is
no longer coated, and the dizzy
spells are things Of the past. The
spots never appear before my eyes.
I feel better all over, and my work
is no longer drudgery. This Won
derful change was brought about by
lust nine bottles Of this new medi-
cine. Do you wonder that I praise
it? 7 am glad to recommend it to
all who suffer as 1 did,
And so it goes! Konjola vel

have defied all other medicines,

cases of this kind as in the milder
ones.

daily, introducing and explaining

NEW YORK. May 2l.-Its a
~ funny thing to me how kids
get the wrong slant on baseball and
how TO play it. The other day I
watched some kids out playing
catch and every throw they made
they tried to curve. Finally I got to
talking with them and 1 suggested
that instead of trying to curve the
ball they just practice control until
they could put it where they want

"Aw, boloney," one OF the kids
said ANY guy can throw
straight ball, but if I can learn to
curve EN- then 1 can be pitcher on

way. just the same though, 1 gave
him good advice
