ARMY BALL GAME IS SUNDAY CARD

U. S. Team to Play Athletics at Riverside Park—Great Game in Prospect—Come Ont. The U. 8. Army baseball team is scheduled for the game With the Athletics Sunday afternoon and a great game is in prospect The Athletics are the best team this town has ever had and the army team, which comes from the city recruit ing station in Chicago, is composed of real (ball players all the way through. The Record-Herald of today makes mention of the game, saying that Corporal Johns, the pitcher, was scouting in Rensselaer to ascertain what sort of a ball team we have ther€ and to see what the chance is'for securing some recruits. The Record-Herald seems to be mistaken, as it is Sergeant Russell who is here and he is not a member of the ball team, but one of" the backers and boosters. He has lined the ball park grand stand with literature cQncerning the regular army and will be glad to talk enlistment to any young man who cares to consider entering the service of Uncle Sam.. The ball boys will dine with Landlord Clarence Fate at the College Inn, will come here in their army uniforms and expect to get out to the ball park for a little practice as soon after their dinner as possible . " The band will lead the way to the park at about 2 o’clock and will enliven the crowd by some excellent music. Sergeant Russell is today passing out bills for the ball game and interviewing possible soldiers. The game from all indications, will be the most energetically contested that has been played here for a long time. The teams will line up as follows: Rensselaer U. 8. Wilcox c Smith Clark p Johns SwartzeM lb Hills Hatton 2b Saunders Eldridge 3b Fredericks Morgan ss Kurz Elder if Creighton Clark of Wardley Parks rs Neiswander Utility for army, Pike Kreuger, Drzevicki.

There is a saying that "rapid eating is stow suicide.” If you have formed the habit of eating too rapidly you are most likely suffering from indigestion or constipation, which will result eventually in serious illness unless corrected. Digestion begins in the mouth. Food should be thoroughly masticated and insalivated. Then when you have a (fullness of the stomach or feel duß and stupid after eating, take one of Chamberlain’s Tablets. Many severe cases of stomach trouble and constipation have been cured by the use of these tablets. They are easy to take and most agreeable in effect. Sold by A. F. Long. C
