BASEBALL ILL,’
CRICKET EXPERT
London, Nov. 5.—Baseball is a
monotonous game compared with
cricket, according to cricket ex
perts of the London newspapers
who reported the first of the
games played between the New
York Giants and the Chicago
White Sox in the British capital.
More Pep to Cricket.
.. An inning by the dullest pro
fessional cricketer who ever daw
dled through the leaden hours on
an English cricket ground has in
finite variety when compared with
the thwackings of a baseball
star,” Was the judgment of the
Manchester Guardian reporter.
“He has only two possible
strokes: One, is the slow one with
a cross bat; the other is a smoth
ering stroke which will enable
him to bolt for first base as in
tip-run, while the pitcher and
catcher tumble over each other in
rescuing the ball from the mid
wicket.
Striker Slogs Ball.

Ten \t»r Bad Case Completely
Healed in a Short Time
Writes Florida Woman.
Faced with the loss of her
teeth after 10 years suffering,
Mrs. M. J. Travis, an esteemed
resident of Jacksonville, declares
she finally saved her teeth by a
simple home treatment “worth its
weight in gold,” using her own
words: “After having pyorrhea
for 10 years my mouth is now
healed. Before I found out dif
ferently, r was told there was
no relief and had yielded to the
oss of six of my solid teeth,
fhpn 1 discovered Moore’s pyor
rhea treatment. Three days af
ter starting its use the soreness
left my gums; my teeth began
to tighten. Now my teeth are
clean, my breath sweet and my
mouth completely healed.”
The experience of Mrs. Travis
is duplicated in hundreds of other
cases. If you have pyorrhea—or
threatened with pyorrhea, your
teeth are in danger. Quick and
effective treatment is necessary.
You can test, without money risk,
the treatment used by Mrs. Tra
vis. Simply write the Moreham
Co., 410 Gateway station, Kansas
City, Mo. Under their guaran
tee of refund send two dollars,
or, pay postman the $2 with a
few cents postage. Use the treat
ment 7 days; Then if you are
not wholly satisfied, writs to that
effect and your |2 will be re
turned at once^—(adv.)

Payne, of Rehoboth.

«* Well, how did you get on?” in
quired a novice of a friend who
had just finished an important
golf match.
Oh,” said the old hand, who
knew the language, “we got off
all right. I was a bit short at
the long end and then long at
the short, but my opponent was
never up all the way because he
couldn’t get down, He played
better coming in than he had go
ing out, so we were square on
the round. n
