The regular base ball organization
known as the Maroons went up against

The firemen at their practice drill Tue

A little strong language was used and for
a minute it looked as though pater fam

' ommended for babies by the medical pro
’ fession, especially at this time of year.

Cured His Mother of Rheumatism.
“My mother has been a sufferer for
many years with rheumatism," savs
W. H. Howard, of Husband, Pa. “At
times she was unable to move at all.
while at all times walking was pain
ful. I presented her with a bottle of
Chamberlain’s Pain Balm and after a
few applications she decided It was
the most wonderful pain reliever she
had ever tried. In fact, she Is never
without It now and Is at all times able
to walk. An occasional application
of Pain Balm keeps away the pain that
■he waa formerly troubled with." For
