DRYDEN PHARMAC Your Drug Store is more than a Place of Merchandise For beneath its coating of com- mercialism is the realization that Professional Knowledge takes precedence of all other matters--: thereby rendering a real, vital Service to the community. Show your appreciation of this fact, and always TRY THE DRUG STORE FIRST! eh AGENTS FOR SOLE Sioux Lookout on War Path We are always ready to enjoy a visit from the baseball boys of Sioux Lookout, Whether we win or lose, we know that we are up against a bunch that will put up a scrap right from the drop of the hat. There's no room for weaklings in that husky crowd, and the only thing to do is to get in there and treat 'em rough. But Sioux Lookout can take all they get and come back with something just as good. There's no use talking, they have a strong team, and anybody that goes 'up against them has got to work hard all the way. 3 But they are a good bunch of sports at that, and always bring along a live crowd with them, including several ladies enthusiastic enough to make the trip. And after the game the evening dance is always an enjoyable one. Cur only reget is that owing to lack of proper roads we cannot have as many opportunities to entertain them as we would wish. Early in the evening, with storm- clouds rolling overhead and the dia- mond as wet as a kitchen floor on wash-day, Aleck Duncan started to pitch them over, Apparently he had more on the ball than Sioux Lookout could fathom, for the first three bat- ters wiffed the air. In the last half of the first Dryden pushed over a couple of runs and things looked rosy. Then came the-disastrous second inn- ings. The wet ball defied Duncan's ciforts to curve it and also slipped out of the fielders' hands. When the third man was retired, Sioux Lookout had annexed eleven runs. That prac- tically finished the game. The players "went through the motions and Sioux Lookout showed their class on a couple of neat plays, but everbody in- j cluding the players, were waiting for | the end. i As th i itabl A DLER-I-KA for a iy The System Cleanser.

The | fans appreciated the consideration, and turned out in surprising numbers, Joe Miller was sent to the mound, and Aleck Duncan held down his old pos- ition on third. Again the game start- ed fine. Joe got the first three victims in short order, and their turn, Dryden broke into the run column with | single tally. Again it was the second i inning with a jinx in it for Dryden. Three successive infield errors soon . filled the bags, and one hit sent over ! three counters. With memories of the | previous night, one ardent Sioux { Lookouter went the rounds offering | five to ome on his pets. But Joe | tightened 'up and then the infield i cleared the situation with a nice | double play. In the third, Dryden | tied the score and from then on the "game was "even Stephen," with Joe , Miller ightening up when ugly hap- | penings threatened. So things rolled ' on into the ninth inning, with excite- ment popping on every hand, Sioux | Lookout sent Bulmer Lawrence into | the box somewhere in the middle of the game. His pose was the neatest 'thing seen in the park for a long while. That just about lets him out. Well, to get back to the ninth and | all the fun, the Sioux tried to win the game on brainwork, so they tried a | couple of bunts. That finished their . chances one, two, three--all out. ! Now comes Dryden for their last "chance. Rochon reached the first port ' safely. Porter sent him a little far- o <a mm ther and things were looking up. Two | on and nobody dead, Also Ernie Dick- son's husky form was adorning' the , plate. Ernie swung and the ball went bang. Boolah dug for home and was obit irritated when His Majesty the Ump. said, "Foul Bawl." A whole lot of people were sore but it had to go. The pitcher took no chances on Ernie getting the next one a bit straighter. He put one against the Big Boy's leg for a free transportation. Now let us present Bert Berrey just aching for a hit. And he got it too. Right into centre field. Boolah stroll- ed over the plate with the others following. Bert was trying for a home run even if the game was over. he surely worked his legs around the trail. So it was over and everyene was happy except the gent who offered five to one. Now that Mrs Hambly is back in town we may expect some new life in Ladies' baseball. When she left things seemed to go to pieces. The Pitt Nine kept themselves alive, but no one saw anything of the all-conqur- ing Fly Catchers. Mrs Hambly prom- ises that we will hac ~rother look at the fair athletes the chill blasts of winter ciore things. May kind fortune faveur her oo lcavours. Morning Glories Mr J. B.

JOSEPH BENNETT. GILBERT H. BALL. Mr Tim Crowley and son Ray, of Quibell, visited their prospect at Con- tact Bay this week. They were much interested by the offer of a large fin- ancier to develop an interest in their property. It is a curious commentary on the vagaries. of law 'enforcement when a leading figure of the class which does not usually regard law with favor, can so much as expect to obtain mitigation of his sentence by betrayal of his victims, While the average male can look upon the law-breaker with lofty tolerance, nothing but utter contemypt could ever be felt for any member of the sex who so far forgets his man- hood as to offend against the unwrit- ten law of the masculine world, from school-boys to blase men of the world, and tries to save his own dirty hide by CARS to OXDRIFT firm | MAKES GENEROUS OFFER ESE ES { The management 'of Fort William Port Arthur Fair to be held September 12th, have requested that a'car be sent from Dryden for exhibition, on which they will pay freight both ways, Any desiring to exhibit stock or pro- duce should write Secy, D.
