DON'T DIE AT 45.

Cure the Indigestion Which Is So Liable to Lead to Apoplexy.; Rush of business, eating too fast and too much, excesses of any kind soon result in indigestion. Then when the digestive organs cannot care for the food properly thecoats of the blood vessels in the brain get little nourishment, become brittle, and finally yield to the fierce blood pressure. One is then said to have a “shock,” to be paralyzed, or to die from apoplexy. People suffering with headache, giddiness, palpitation, sleeplessness, bad taste in the mouth, drowsiness, coated tongue, distress after eating, specks before the eyes, and any other of the many distressing results of a weakened stomach, should profit by the discovery of Mi-o-na stomach tablets. In recent years the greatest advance in medicine has been in the study of diseases of digestion and nutrition and no other prescription has proven itself of as much value as Mi-o-na. It is relied upon as a certainty today in relieving the worst troubles of digestion and assimilation and making a complete cure. The strongest proof that can be offered in substantiation of the claims that Mi-o-na will cure the worst forms of stomach trouble, cancer excepted, and give immediate relief in indigestion is the guarantee that B. F. Fendig gives with every 50 cent box of Mi-o-na to refund the money unless Mi-o-na oures. A guarantee like this must inspireconfidence in Mi-o-na. B. F. Fendig takes the whole risk and the remedy will not cost you a penny unless it cures.

The SPORTING WORLD

Bassball Looms In View. One of the most anxious periods of the year Tor baseball fans is here. They all want to see the home team in action, to learn for themselves whether or not “the locals** are the coming champions of their league. Of course every tedm Is a championship winner—before the campaign opens. The battles In both the National and American leagues open on April 11.

DAVY JONES, CAPTAIN CHAMPION CHICAGO AMERICANS.

The other leagues follow with their inaugurals soon after. In the American league the Chicago White Sox, champions of the world, are said by their leader, Center Fielder Davy Jones, to be ready to capture another flag. But Jones may be guessing wrong, for Cleveland and Philadelphia have very able teams. At this writing Chicago, Cleveland and Philadelphia appear the strongest outfits on paper In Ban Johnson’s league;

The A. A. U. After Grafters. There is likely to be a severe financial stringency In eastern athletic circles during the next few months and all because the Amateur Athletic union proposes to delve more deeply into the question of money paid to star athletes under the guise of expenses. This habit has been growing in a remarkable manner lately, and the promoters of track meets, both Indoor and outdoor, have discovered that It cost extraordinary amounts to transport the festive sprinter and distance man from point to point. This grafting under the term of expenses has reached a point where the promoters of track and field games are yelling for help, and the Amateur Athletic union has beard the call. There is a mail vote now in progress on a resolution to do away with the habit of paying expense money direct to the athlete and In place of it substituting a plan whereby the club represented by the athlete shall render bills and receive payment for such Incidental expenses as may be incurred by competitors. This idea was submitted by ex-President Joseph B. McCabe at the last annual meeting of the union and received hearty supporj. At that time It was resolved “that recommendation In the president’s report In regard to the payment of traveling and other expenses by club officials and not by athletes be referred to the legislation committee.” This was done, and the committee has now prepared a rule which If passed will, it Is expected, do away with what has been threatening the amateur status of some of the most prominent of the present crop of ath letes.

The Bermuda Yacht Race. The entries of five yachts in the Bermuda race for sailing craft were announced recently in New York by the committee in charge of the contest which consists of Dr. De Mund, Vice Commodore Trott and Thomas Fleming Day. The yachts are the schooner Dervish, flagship of Commodore Morss of the Corinthian Yacht club of Marblehead, Mass.; the Isolt, owned by Captain Myers of the St. George Yacht club of Bermuda; the Bermudian, owned by D. Burrows of the Royal Bermuda Yacht club; the schooner Rusulka, flagship of Commodore Bird S. Coler of the Brooklyn Yacht club, and the yawl building for Rear Commodore Frank Maier of the New Rochelle (N. Y.) Yacht club. Besides the entries of the schooners Black Hawk and Takltesy and the yawl Lila are expected. .The. * Lila started in the race last year, which was won by Rear Commodore Maier’s yawl Tamerlane,, but she was forced into Hampton Roads, Va., because of a tempestuous experience in the gulf stream. Jack O'Brian May Retire. It is possible “Philadelphia Jack” O’Brien, who is getting brain fag from juggling real estate deals, will abandon the Queensberry art after his coming bout with Tommy Burns in Los Angeles next May. “Unless the inducements are unusually good I am going to let the other fellows do the fighting,” confided O’Brien recently. “It Is not so much the fighting that I object to, but it’s the long, tedious Job of training. When a man has business worries on his brain, he is in no condition to do bls best fighting. While lam almost certain that I shall retire, I would take on Johnson when he returns to America if a fat purse were hung up." Breaks Intersoholastio Record. The interscholastlc indoor record for the 1,000 yard run was broken by George Jones of the Worcester (Mass.i academy at the annual interscholastle games recently. Jones ran the distance in 2:25 4-5. The previous record was 2:27 14k

WANTEDAN APOLOGY.

By Henry Abbott.

Gadsby Jones was a peppery man of about fifty years who lived In the village of Hornsdale. It was well known to all the Inhabitants that he was peppery and carried a chip on his shoulder, and they took good care not to stir him up. In the village of Winston, four miles away, there lived another peppery man about the same age. His name was Talbot, 'and he was so touchy that he had W be handled with gloves. These two peppery old men had known each other by name for ten years before they were introduced. Mr. Jones happened to be over at Winston one day, and while at the hotel Mr. Talbot came in. They were rather chary of each other for awhile, Instinctively scenting danger, but when -that feeling had finally worn off a bit the peppery Mr. Jones remarked: “It’s my opinion, from what I have seen so far this season, that we are going to have a plague of tater bugs. I shouldn’t wonder If we lost the whole crop.” “■Well, I dunno,” replied the peppery Mr. Talbot “In my opinion all the indications point to a return of the grasshoppers.” “I differ with you, sir.” “And I differ with you.” “There isn’t the slightest indication of grasshoppers.” “Nor the slightest indication of tater bugs.” “You seem, sir, to be a conceited man.”

“And I wouldn’t guarantee that you had an ounce of brains.” “I demand an apology at once!” “And I demand the same!” "" As neither would apologize, they separated in a spirit of bitterness. As they lived four miles from each other and as they had managed to get along fairly well for years without knowing each other, their feelings would have made no difference but for one thing. Gadsby Jones had a son twenty years

“I HAVEN’T SEEN ANYTHING OF THEM GRASSHOPPERS YET.”

old, and Mr. Talbot had a daughter nineteen. The young people had met and admired each other before the meeting of their fathers, and the fact was dimly known to their respective parents. When Mr. Talbot went home from the hotel it was to say to his daughter: “Ruth, are you acquainted with young Jones of Hornsdale?” “Why, yes, I have met him,” admitted Ruth, with a blush. “Then don’t meet him any more. He’s a horse thief.” “Why, father, how you talk!” “That Is to say, his father is the biggest old fool in the state, and I’m sorry now that I didn't call him a liar. If I catch the son hanging around here I shall kick him out in short order,” And Gadsby Jones returned to Hornsdale, getting madder every rod of the way, to say to his son: “Homer, do you know a girl over at Winston named Talbot?” ' “Talbot? Talbot?” mused the young man as he tried to appear Indifferent “Yes, sir, Talbot Seems to me I beard you say you took her to the circus.” “Oh, yes, Ruth Talbot” “Well, you drop her lifie a hot tater. I met her father over there today, and of all the cantankerous old cusses I ever ran up against he takes the cake. He owes me an apology, and until he makes it no son of mine can enter his house.” The son and daughter could not look upon the matter as the two fathers did, and neither of them felt obliged to obey the parental Injunction. While they did not openly defy it, they continued to meet at intervals, and admiration and friendship finally ripened into love. In this they were secretly supported by Mrs. Jones and Mrs. Talbot. The two peppery old men, who had lived for fifty years without knowing each other's existence, seemed fated to meet at Intervals after the disagreement. Within a month both found themselves at the same blacksmith shop to have repairs made to

their buggies, and, after glaring and snorting at eack other for a time, Mr. Jones sarcastic:!*}’ said: “I haven’t Seen anything of them grasshoppers yet.” “They are probably waiting to come along with your tater bugs.” „ “Um! Mr. Talbot, if that Is your name, I pity the.folks In this village who have to put up with your ways.” “Um! Mr. Jones, and that is undoubtedly your name, for I jjever saw a Jones who didn’t look like a mean man. If I was you, I’d go hang myself and let iny town take a rest” “Apologize, sir! Apologize at oncer* “Not until you apologize first.” They met again on the highway and again at a funeral and a town meeting. and each meeting made them long to kill each other. The son and the daughter were forbidden under all sorts of pains ahd penalties even to bow to each other, but their lovemaking could not be stopped by such edicts. There was no question of love, but that of marriage was held in abeyance In hopes that their respective fathers might undergo a change of opinion. A mutual friend undertook to bring this about He called upon the peppery Mr. Jones first. He started out with a lot of sweet oil, but he hadn’t talked over half a minute when Mr. Jones Interrupted with: “That will do, sir. A year ago I told that old fool of a Talbot that it looked like a good year for tater bugs, and he up and insulted me.” “But there were no tater bugs last year.” * “Makes no difference. I have met him two or three times since, and I tell you he is a cantankerous old reprobate. If he’s going to continue living in the state, I’ll get out of it” Nothing could be done with the peppery Mr. Jones, and so the mutual friend tried the peppery Mr. Talbot. He had only stated his errand when the latter shouted out: “Stop, sir! Ido not want that man's name mentioned in my presence! If ever there was an obstinate old fool who needed to be kicked from here to Hornsdale, he is the one. He owes me an apology, and I shall insist that he get down on his knees to make It. Be friends with Jones—J-o-n-e-s! You don’t know me, sir!” But yet things were working. Providence or something else always seeks to bring things out right in case of true love. One day a party of people living in Winston went out to a huckleberry swamp to gather berries, and the peppery Mr. Talbot went with them. On the same day a party from Hornsdale visited the same swamp, and the peppery Mr. Jones was among them. The two parties kept separate for some hours, and they had only drifted together when a thunderstorm came up. At the same time a messenger arrived from Winston with the news that the young couple had gone off and been married. The people had to seek the shelter of the trees, and It so happened that the two peppery old men found themselves side by side. “I will never recognize the marriage!” exclaimed Mr. Jones as he found himself face to face with his enemy. “Nor I either!” “Your daughter plotted to trap my son.” “’Tls false, sir! It was right the other way.” They would probably have kept on quarreling for the next half hour, but a thunderbolt shot out of the black cloud and struck the tree underneath which they were standing. Five people were knocked senseless and continued In that state for a quarter of an hour. Then the two peppery old men recovered consciousness, sat up and looked at each other. “Talbot, where are we?” slowly asked Jones. ! •Tn heaven, Jones.” "Were we killed by lightning?" "We must have been.” "Well, as we are In heaven and the children married, I don’t want to carry no grudge against you. I’m willing to apologize If you are.” “Well, I’m sorry.” “So’m I.” Of course they found put later on that they were no nearer'heaven, than the huckleberry swamp, and of course there was a little humiliation on the part of both, but, like sensible men, they buried the hatchet and rode home together to congratulate the happy
