BE IN TIME AND SECURE YOUR CHOICE WHILE THEY LAST. : : 8S% .C. EVANSON WEST HcHENRY, ILL. C. C. O'Neill Co., J. A. Beierwalter, Mgr., Chicag< The Palatine teaui, composed of a hnsky lot of ball players, were her© last Sunday afternoon and gave the Greeny something to think abont. The visit­ ors, with one execution, played a fast, snappy fltanie, and would probably have won out btit this one exception proved their undoing. This great player was their third baseman, who played the game with his mouth only. Every­ thing that went his way was muffed and at bat he was no better, he was by poorest. excuse of a ball player that has ever appeared at the local diamond. The game proved very interesting to the spectators from the start; when it was evident that it was going to be a tight one. The visitors were the first to count, the tally coming in the second inning, an errer by |the local short- stop, being mainly responsible. Their second score was made in the fourth inning on hits by Johnson and Shering. They threatened to score in the fifth and uiuth but the masterly pitching of Bending kept them from doing so. The Greens'" run getting started in the -third on a hit and an error, Heimer was the man to nmke the first count. In the fourth and fifth, the locals were retired without a score, but the sixth proved another good inning. During this round Bending crossed the home plate with the second tally, which tied the game. The run coming thru a hit by the former and an error on the part of the famous Hainer. From this time up until the ninth inning there was nothing that looked like a score. The ninth inning was started'in a way that caused the fans to smile. Buss, the first man to bat, met the pig skin squarely, pounding it out for two bases. Thurlwell struck out, but Heimer came up with his second hit of the day ad vancing Buss to the third sack. Voeltz tried to sacrifice but was safe on first when Reutter failed to get his dukes on the sphere, Buss advancing to home plate with the third and winning rnn. All in all it was a good game and those who were out were well satisfied with the exhibition. THE SCORE McHENRY, ' Davis. 3rd b.. ... ... I'fiuimiller, ssk;.... Bending, .. I' S-hieiner, IT .

Eu.i The prohibition law of North Dakota is known aroundv the world. Ho proud we may be of our great wheat fields, our growing towns and cities, our hue school system, our intelligent popa­ rt ion, nevertheless it is prohibition that has made North Dakota famous. Under prohibition our state has had a growth and prosperity which is almost phenomenal. The population has in­ creased from 182,719 to 480,000. The per capital wealth is exceeded by a .few states in the nnion. Prohibition v is another name for prosperity. The money whichyn licence states goes in tr> tfee B»roon weepers till, or is spent in caring for the finished products of his trade, is saved and put into homes and home comforts. When prohibition went into effect some of the leading papers of the state prophesied that in less than ten years the grass would be growing in the streets of F$rgo and Grand Forks, and that their sister towns across the river in Minnesota, with the advantage of the saloon and all the business which saloons bring, and the magnificent rev- enoes from them. Would spring up into great cities, Cross the river and you will find that for once the men were false prophets. The Minnesota towns still have the saloons and the revenue from ten to thirty thousand dollars a year from them, but the business, the growth and prosperity have gon'e to the prohibition towns. - „ " < ' • f"5.-; Given .Up B.

Fortunately I insisted upon hav­ ing Foiey's Honey and Tar and it quick­ ly cured me. My wife has since used Foley's Honey and Tar with the mine success." G. W. Besley.
