Compress Men Meet.
Jackson, Miss., May 20.—The Mississippi
compress association, representing thirty
cotton compresses, met in annual ses
sion here today. President Joseph New
berger in his annual address urged the
continued use of the square bale and uni
form charges for compressing and in
vited the attendance at the sessions of
insurance men to discuss the matter of
Insurance by marks and numbers. Pres
ident New’berger declared that no Miss
issippi compress can compress cotton for
less than ten cents per hundred pounds.
CONSTIPATION
It is surprising how many people there are who
allow themselves to become and remain consti
pated. They apparently do not know that this
condition poisons the entire system. Not imme
diately of course, but after a little time as the poi
sonous impurities accumulate they attack the vital
organs and undermine the constitution. As a re
sult, the victim becomes pale, hollow-eyed and
sallow, the breath is foul, the head aches fre
quently, the strength slowly declines and the once
strong, active body becomes weak and nervous.
Prickly Ash Bitters
is a cleansing tonic and restorative just suited to
such conditions. It is a genial stimulant for the
, stomach, liver and bowels, purifies the system thor
oughly and invigorates the kidneys, conveying
strength and new life to the whole internal organ
ism. Under its marvelous reviving influence there
is at once a brightening up in body and brain, re
newed energy, strength, vim and cheerfulness.

Two questionable decisions by Umpire
Goodenough in the second inning gave
New Orleans a lead of two runs yesterday
and from that time on neither side was
{fuel to shove a runner across the plate.
The score which resulted 3 to 1 would
have stood 1 to 1 at the end of the ntnth
inning had the umpire reversed his deci
sions. The crowd thought he was wrong
and set up a vigorous howl but It “didn't
go."
It was a pitchers* battle from the start
and though Freeland had the best of the
argument numerically, Llpp did magnifi
cent work. Out of the seven hits secured
off his delivery two of them were slow
ones to the infield which could not be
handled in time to put the ruhners out.
LaRocque was robbed of a pretty hit in
the eighth inning by a phenomenal play
on the part of Smith and Atz. The ball
was a hot grounder and Smith made a
dive for it. The Clark Griffith wfas a little
too warm, however, and It struck his
wrist, hounding toward second base. Atz
took in the situation quick as a flash and
ran out to meet the bounding ball. He
made a pretty recover and Daddy was
caught about two feet too late at first.
Moss was robbed of another pretty hit
by Stafford who pulled down a line drive
which turned him clear around. It was
a desperate chance but the big first base
man went after it and furnished the most
spectacular play of the game. The crowd
wouldn’t let up their applause until Big
Stafford took off his cap three times.
Fun Began in the First.
Birmingham had a great chance to score
in the first inning but nice pitching by
Freeland did the w’ork for the Pelicans.
Billie Smith was first up and lined out a
two-bagger to right field fence. The um
pire got in his way and a kick was raised
to send him to third on account of the in
terference. Goodenough stood pat, how
ever, and Billie anchored on second. Long
ley was next up and hit a warm liner
down to Smith who threw him out at
first. Smith going to third. Haller then
went to first on a fielder’s choice and
zfmitli was thrown out at the plate. Frank
Smith tried to make up for the misfortune
but made three vicious slaps at the ball
and struck out.
Deisel. the first Pelican up, was an
easy out. Smith hit safe to center buC
was thrown out at second on Stanley's
grounder to F. Smith. Stanley made
a break for second but Blue threw wild,
allowing him to go to ...ird, Billie
Smith picked up the ball and threw to
third but the runner got in the way of
the ball and It went into the bleachers,
allowing Stanley to score. Stafford then
lined out a beautiful three-base hit to left
field fence but died on third as Mullen
went out on a grounder to F. Smith.
Birmingham then made her first, last
and only run. Moss was allowed to walk.
Sorber went out to shortstop but ad
vanced the runner to second. Blue con
nected with the ball for two bags and
Moss trotted across the rubber, tleing
the score. Lipp struck out. but Billie
Smith was hit by the pitcher. Longley
failed to connect safely and the side was
retired with two men on bases.
How the Game Was Won.
New Orleans then did the work which
put a “crimp’’ in tlic Coal Barons and
won the game. Abbott the first man up
flew out to Longley. Norcum went out
to Haller Ion a slow grounder and the
fans settled themselves to take things
easy. Atz started something, however,
by bunting a slow one to the infield. It
looked to the grandstand as if he was
out at first but Mr. Goodenough called
him safe. Freeland the next man up
hit one to Moss who handled it In great
style but too late to catch him at first.
Atz attempted to make third and Haller
shot the ball over to Frank Smith who
touched him about one foot from the
bag. To the consternation of the rooters
Goodenough called Atz safe and on the
next ball Freeland stole second. The di
minutive Deisel after two strikes then
cracked out a pretty liner over second
scoring both runners and winning the
game. Deisel was thrown out at second
on Smith's grounder and the suspense
was ended. From then on It was a game
of see-saw neither side being able to
handle the pitchers.
Mr. Goodeonugh s work as umpire was
far from the standard set the day before
and his decisions on balls and strikes was
especially rank. Birmingham likes good
clean sport but bad umpiring hurts the
game worse than all other faults. Mr.
Goodenough Is a good fellow and presum
ably intends to do right but he will have
to get his eye on the hall and watch
the bases closer. It was the unanimous
opinion of the spectators that his work
lost us the game.

Miss Florence Davis
Nurse in the Hospital Creche,
or Children’s Home at
Buffalo. N. Y.
__ w*.
a NURSE is honored and respected by
all the world because she gives up
her life to the care of the sick and
helpless. Though her duties call for loving
service at any hour of the day or night the
true nurse is always at hand. None but a
noble, conscientious woman could be a real
nurse, losing sleep and proper exercise, yet
maintaining through all the dragging hours
a pleasant smile even when taxed with a
nervous, peevish, delirious or complaining
patient. Nurses see life on its serious side
and learn to take it as a great opportunity
for doing good and being of sen-ice to the
world. Hundreds of thousands of persons
who have suffered on beds of disease or
accident owe their lives to the faithful and
intelligent care of a nurse, whose knowl
edge of medicine is as useful as her ex
perienced service. A nurse soon learns a
doctor’s ways and especially in caring for
women their knowledge is often superior to
that of the physician himself.
Miss Florence Davis lives at No. 318
Maryland Street. Buffalo, N. Y., and she
is a nurse at the Hospital Creche at Buf
falo. This great charitable institution is
known all over the country. As a nurse
she has often noticed that doctors pre
scribe Wine of G'ardui for patients who are
weakened by female troubles and by the
great success this medicine has achieved
right before her eyes she h.-.s become a be
liever in Wine of G'ardui and uses it with
her own patients on her own responsibility.
Miss Davis writes:
" Nurses as a rule have very little faith in
patent medicines but experience has taught
me that Wine of Cardui is an honest medi
cine. I have attended a number of cases
where the patient was a woman broken
down with the trouble peculiar to the
sex—inflammation, ulceration and falling of
the womb, irregular and painful menstrua
tion—and I have noticed that the physician
often used Wine of Cardui with great sue
cCSSf after other remedies had failed. I have
recommended it myself very often and feel
that I am doing sick women a good turn in
so doing.*’
Wine of Cardui has thousands of friends
among women who at first had little confi
dence in medicines, but even the most
prejudiced, when seeing the wonderful suc
cess of this remedy, have become its most
enthusiastic users. But Wine of Cardui
is not a common “patent” medicine. It is
a remedy that has been curing women for
seventy-fire years. It is a natural, high
class menstrual regulator that has been
accorded recognition by the best medical
talent in the United States.
If you are suffering female weakness you
could not do better than to take Miss
Davis’ advice in regard to Wine of Cardui.
In her every day duties she has seen hun
dreds of sick and suffering women re
stored to strength by using this wonderful
remedy. If you were to put yourself under
her rare at the Hospital Creche at Buffalo.
N. Y., you would be given Wine of Cardui.
But you do not need tj^do that. You can
get a bottle of Wine of Cardui from your
druggist and begin the treatment today at
home. In a short time you will feel
your strength and health returning. You
will know what regular habits, strong
nerves and pure blood are. If you desire
advice as to your case write The Ladies'
Advisory Department, The Chattanooga
Medicine Co., Chattanooga, Tenn. De
scribe your symptoms and a letter of advice
will be sent you free of charge. But you
may begin the Wine of Cardui treatment
at any time. Go to your druggist today
and buy a $1.00 bottle of Wine of Cardui
and take it at home.

| .Food for the Fans, j
Owing to the surprise over the shut-out
giver. New Orleans in the first game of
the series, a report has been .circulated
in Birmingham that the game was sold.
To those acquainted with the game of
baseball and baseball players this report
Is absurd, but the report was so wide
spread that the management has seen fit
to make a statement concerning It. One
of the officers of the Birmingham asso
ciation said last night:
"At first I took the report as a joke
and gave it no serious consideration, but
since It has been mentioned by men whom
I knov, to he patrons of the game and
above reproach. 1 think we should deny
it In the strongest terms. The members
of this association have heretofore been
regarded as honorable men and we had
just as soon that a charge of stealing
money out of a man's pocket be brought
against us i»-, to say we bought a game.
YVe are trying to give the people clean
sport and we are very much hurt over this
report which was evidently started by
some person who either lost money on
the game, or Is not familiar wild the
sport. A bought game would add noth
ing to our treasury and if players could
he bought such a transaction would de
moralize the team so that it could never
recover. You may state emphatically that
the Birmingham team njr anybody con
nected with It has ever had the remotest
idea of buying a game nor will they
ever be parties to such a transaction.
We believe we are gentlemen and it Is
an injustice to Mr. Powell and his team
to say that they could be bought’’
Mr. Abner Powell, manager of the New
Orleans team, said: "The report is abso
lutely absurd. I have YTSen In the base
ball business for years and huve never
known of a game being sold. Ball play
ers are out for individual records and
I have never seen one yet who wrould
sacrifice his reputation for the manage
ment or another ball player. If I had
wanted to sell the game to Birmingham
it would have done me no good. I value
my place at ifthe top of the pencentage
column too much to give anybody a game
they do not win fairly and squarely.
In Monday’s game it was simply our In
ability to hit Wilhelm who pitched a
phenomenal game and the ability of Birm
ingham to hit Dannehower. Dannehower
has lost every game he ever pitched in
Birmingham, You can deny the report for
me in the strongest terms possible.”
Campbell says he is in good shape and
he will be pitted against New Orleans
today.
The Coal Barons will leave for Mem
phis tonight to play a Sunday game.

I am forty-seven years of age, and
for twenty years I had been afflicted
with headaohe and stomach troubles.
I would get those blind spells with
spots beforo my eyes, and after that
passed away then would come one of
those terrible headnches. After eating
I would feel so miserable, but since
using Ripans Tabules that is a dream
of the past. I take a tablet when I
feel the headache coming, and in
twenty minutes the pain in my head
is nearly gone. I take a Ripans Tabule
whenever I feel a slight indication of
headache or stomach trouble. Am al
most positive that if I used them ev
ery day I could overcome all that Ill
ness.
