American Milk Bottles to Britain.

In reference to our recent paragraph on the shortage in milk bottles due to the supply having In the past been drawn from Austria, we are informed by a 'firm in the trade that this difficulty is now being overcome. It is possible to secure bottles from America, of equal quality and at the same price as'the Austrian product. We are glad to hear that the Austrian source of supply can be dispensed with without inconvenience, but we should be Still more glad to. hear that the demand could be met by British makers. In this connection we are informed that English bottles are to be obtained, "but at a rise of 20 per cent and of an*inferior quality.”—London Globe. Lj

Have You a Bad Back? Does your back ache night and day,making work a burden and rest impossible! Do you suffer stabbing, darting pains when stooping or lifting? Most bad backs are due to hidden trouble in the kidneys and if the kidney secretions are scant or too frequent of passage, proof of kidney trouble is complete.

SHECKARD PLAYS SUPERSTITION TO WIN

(By ARTIE HOFMAN.) The thing that sticks in my mind as perhaps the funniest I ever saw on a ball field happened when I was with the Cubs and Jimmy Sheckard was playing out there in the pasture beside me. Sheck was, perhaps, the best man at playing for batters the game ever has known. Much of his great success was due to the fact he played right where batters hit the ball. But this time things had been breaking badly for him. One day we were playing Pittsburgh. At the end of one Inning I glanced over into left field. There was Sheckard with his -eyes shut, whirling around and around, and finally he let his glove fly. I wondered what was coming off, until I saw Sheck walk to

SPEAKER MADE DOUBLE PLAY

Boston Red Sox Outfielder on Two Occasions Last Year Retired Players Without Assistance. Tris Speaker is the only major league outfielder who last year executed a double play without assistance from anyone. Not once, but twice, has Boston’s high-salaried star turned this trick. The first time Speaker made an unassisted double play was on April 21, in the game with the Athletics. On August 8, in a contest with the Tigers, Tris Speaker repeated his earlier performance. Speaker was born in Hubbard City, Tex., April 4, 1888. He became a professional ball player in 1906, when he joined the Cleburne, Tex,, team.

Tria Speaker of Boston Red Sox.

In 1907 he played with Houston. At the close of the season he was purchased by Boston and turned over to Little Rock the following spring as ground rent man, the Red Sox having trained on the Little Rock grounds. At the close of the Southern league season Speaker was repurchased by Boston for SSOO and joined the Red Sox late in the season of 1908. Speaker is one of the greatest hitters in baseball, having had a batting average of .SOO or better each season since leaving Cleburne.

Herzog a Golf Fiend.

Charley Herzog, the manager of the Reds, has become, so badly afflicted with, golfitis that he has about decided to quit raising crops on his Maryland farm and will have the farm laid out as a golf course. “Never could see the sport in golf until I got a club in my hand one day,” says Herzog. “I used to (hink it was child’s play to knock that innocent looking ball a couple of miles. Well, just for exercise I swung at the ball with a club that belonged to a friend of mine. I missed. That made me vexed. I swung again—and I swung low. That time I nearly knocked the bottom out of the tee. What’s the use of going farther? Golf got me like it does nearly everybody else."

Announce Batting Order.

National league umpires will be required to announce the entire batting order before the games this summer. This is'a helpful innovation that is sure to gain favor. .

where the glove had fallen, way over In short left within an inch or two of the foul line. Then it dawned upon me that Sheck had shut his eyes, thrown the glove, and was going to play where it lighted. I doubled up laughing over his plan, then saw Tommy Leach coming to bat Leach caught one right on the nose and sent it over head on the line. He tore around first, sprinted for second and looked to see how far the ball had gone just in time to see Sheckard tossing it back. The drive had gone straight into Sheck’s hands! Tommy was the maddest man you ever Saw. Sheck’s superstition had robbed him of a sure three-base hit —■ and, as it turned out, saved Chicago the game. *

NOTES of the DIAMOND

Jim Gilmore says Jake Ruppert is hitched up to a lemon in the New York Yankees. * « • Manager Branch Rickey of the St. Louis Browns is a great advocate of handball. George Stallings, manager of the Braves, is anxious to land a substitute infielder for his club. * * * j The Pirates are congratulating themselves on having signed a youngster by the name of Helus Wagner. • • • Marty O’Toole says he likes Columbus —which explains, perhaps, why he did not succeed in a major league. • * • Little Louis Van Zelt, the hunchback mascot of the Athletics, is dead. He was famous all over the big league circuits. * • • Cleveland is planning a municipal kick bureau. We sincerely hope it does not include a department of professional baseball. ■; •• • > Bob Tebeau, son of President George Tebeau of the Kansas City association club, has succeeded John Savage as secretary of the club. « • « The St. Louis Cards and the Pittsburgh Pirates both have pitchers who wear spectacles. They will need double lenses to see a pennant. The first deal made by the new management of the St. Paul American association club was the sale of Pitcher Dixie Walker to Milwaukee. ** * . Sherwood Magee’s shoulder will not trouble him during the season, according to the Braves' physician. • • • The Cincinnati Reds are certainly well fortified in the matter of catchers. In Ivy Wingo and Charley Dooin they have two first-clash backstops. Napoleon Lajoie who is with the Athletics, is the only player in the American league who entered the ranks in 1901, who is still in harness'. * * • Chicago is the greatest baseball city in the world. It has over six hundred organized clubs. The level ground and the large number of vacant lots make Chicago the paradise of ball players. Charles Mullen is to be given every opportunity to battle for his job with the Highlanders even though Walter Pipp has been signed. If Mullen hits as he did at Lincoln he. would hold on. >• • • Nemo Liebold of the Cleveland Indians denied he intended jumping to the Feds. Birmingham contends that these rumors of a player jumping hurt the player and get him in wrong with the fans.

ARLINGTON MERCHANT FEELS BETTER Friedrich Redeker, a business man of Arlington, DI., was a victim of stomach and digestive troubles. He went to a hospital for an operation for another trouble. When he recovered from the operation he found his stomach trouble worse and his heart affected. He took Mayr’s Wonderful Remedy, He got his appetite back and gained in strength right away. He wrote: "I owe you some words of congratulation for your stomach remedy. I could not eat anything but soft food and the bloating from gas got so bad that at one time I had a fainting spell for three hours. I went to one of your Chicago drug stores and got your remedy. I took the remedy and the next morning was relieved. I am getting stronger and can eat anything that comes alopg.” Mayr’s Wonderful Remedy gives permanent results for stomach, liver and ’ intestinal ailments. Eat as much and whatever you like. No more distress after eating, pressure of gas in the stomach and around the heart. Get one bottle of your druggist now and try it on an absolute guarantee—if not satisfactory money will be returned. —Adv. This Happened In Boston. "Cynthia, will you recite, ‘Mary Had a Little Lamb’ for us?” asked the kind old gentleman. “I do not care to, much as I should like to oblige you,” replied the little girl with the horn-rimmed eyeglasses. “As a matter of fact, the poem has little, if any, literary value, and in addi'tlon is not true to life as It exists today. Under the constriction in thrade, due to the meat trust, Mary could not own an entire lamb. She might have had a chop, but beyond that the poet’s imagination must be blamed.’’—Philadelphia Public Ledger.
