"Manager Hemphill of the Atlan ta club came to me yesterday and tried to smooth things over ’for the good of the game.’ I've heard my fill of 'the good of the game.' That man hit me in the face with out any cause. If I can't* resent that assault personally as a man without the good of the game being hurt. I want to know it. “That's a private assault Dobbs made on me—man to man. Well, I’m a ball player, but I'll tell you again that that thing is between Dobbs and me, and I'll settle it with rny own hands. Will Settle It Himself. "That's what I've told my friends when they've come to me by the . dozen to tell me they wanted t,o , help me get even with Dobbs. I've told them that I’m much obliged for their friendship and I don't re fuse their offer of aid, because 1 may need it. I . an't tell about that, but this is something I'm 'perfect ly competent to take eyre of my self, and Dm not going to tell you how or when I'll do it; but I’m go ing to do it, and until I do it, there's going to be no settlement of that feud." "But you won't have any trouble with Dobbs on the ball field, will you?' McElveen was asked. "I won't say about that. I'm go ing to be on the ball ground ready to play this afternoon, but I won't say a word of what IT], do until 1 settle this thing myself." V TEXAS t-EAGUE. > _ , Games Todav. Galveston in Houston.

Chronic Ulcers Mean Bad Blood If outside influences were responsible for chronic ulcers, then exter nal applications and simple cleanliness would be a curative treatment. But the trouble is always in the blood which has become unhealthy and diseased, and keeps the sore open by continually discharging into it the impurities and infectious matter with which the circulation is filled. Salves, washes, lotions, etc., may cause the place to scab over temporarily, ebut the blood is not made purer by* such treatment and soon the old inflammation and discharge will return and the sore be as bad or worse than before. Nor will removing the place by surgical operation insure a cure; the cause still remains in the blood and the sore is bound to return. S. S. S. heals old sores by going down into the blood and removing the impurities and germs which are responsible for the place. S. S. S. thoroughly purifies the circula tion and in this way destroys the source of every chronic ulcer. In addition to purifying the blood S. S. S. enriches this vital fluid and in every way assists nature in over coming the bad effects of a chronic ulcer. Book on Seres and Ulcers and any medical rnlvice free SWfFT S p EC[FfC CQ A TLANTA, GA.
