"Wild Bill" Smiles tin

fm m

Visitors to the New York American League's headquarters

these days are struck by the particularly broad smile of Manager

Wild Bill Donovan. Taking everything into consideration, Donovan feels that the Yankees did not do so badly last season, but the real reason for the smile is what Donovan expects to accomplish next season. With a few stars, such as Maisel retained, and the acquisition of Magee from the Federals and the possible purchase of J. Franklin Baker, things are beginning to look very rosy for the Yanks.

More. Than Hall the Number of Cases Result Fatally.

. Figures that have just been compiled by experts show that almost half the number of pneumonia cases end in death. This is the pneumonia season, and neglect of colds is in most cases the origin of the disease. When you take "cough balsams" or "syrups" containing deadly drugs that weaken the body, you are inviting pneumonia. Without these drugs. Father John's Medicine treats colds and prevents pneumonia. It is composed of pure food elements which nourish and build up the body, giving strength to ward off the disease. It is not a patent medicine, but a physician's prescription;

50 years in use. Because of its gentle laxative effect Father John's Medicine drives the impurities out of the system and enables each organ to do its work. It is in the getting-well stage, after

a cold or the grip, that the greatest

danger lies. At this time, in order to regain the strength you have lost you need a wholesome pure food medicine such as Father John's Medicine, the nourishing elements of which are easily taken up by the system. When you ask for Father John's Medicine be sure you get what you call for. Adv.
