County Commissioners
Hold Taylor Matter Open
Although counsel for Jury Commis
sioner Samuel M. Taylor has notified
County Solicitor Philip S. Moyer that
he has a check for IS refund to the
county, county commissioners to-day
said that handing back the money
would not be considered an answer
to their request of last month, asking
Taylor to appear before them.
Nothing will be done, it was said
to-day, until the jury commissioners
appear before the commissioners.
AD FOOD
WANTS EMBARGO OX POOD
By u iss c.utci I ten
Washington, Feb. 23.—Senator Mar
tine to-day introduced a bill to em
power the President to declare an
embargo on food exports. It was
referred to the foreign relations com
mittee without debate. Similar reso
lutions are pending without prospect
of action.
CHILD GETS SICK,
CROSS, FEVERISH
IF CONSTIPATED
Look at tongue! Then give fruit!
laxative for stomach, •
liver, bowels.
"California Syrup of Figs" can't
harm children and
they love it.
Mother! Your child Isn't naturally;
cross and peevish. See If tongue Is j
coated; this Is a sure sign the little |
etomach, liver and bowels need a 1
cleansing at once.
When listless, pale, feverish, full of J
cold, breath bad, throat sore, doesn't |
eat, sleep or act naturally, has stom
ach-ache, diarrhoea, remember, aj
gentle liver and bowel cleansing;
should always be the first treatment j
given.
Nothing equals "California Syrup of ;
figs" for children's Ills; give a tea-1
spoonful, and in a few hours all the j
foul waste, sour bile and fermenting ;
food which is clogged in the bowels I
passes out of the system, and you havo <
a well and playful child again. All j
children love this harmless, delicious!
"fruit laxative," and it never fails to |
effect a good "inside" cleansing. Dl- i
rections for babies, children of all |
ages and grown-ups are plainly on
the bottle.
Keep it handy In your home. A
little given to-day saves a sick child
to-morrow, but get the genuine. Ask
your druggist for a 50-cent bottle of
"California Syrup of Figs," then see
that it Is made by the "California Fig
Syrup Company."
Rrst Aid for
Household Accidents
"Hie same gentle, healing medication
which makes Resinol a standard remedy
for skin-troubles makes it a most relia
ble dressing for cuts, burns, scalds,
chafings, and similar emergencies.
All drucgiits fell Resinol. Keep a Jir on band.
Men Supplied With
Lots of "Ginger"
Nervous Women, Too, Respond To
Tonic Action of Cadomene.
Tells How To Do It.
"Ginger" has become a synonym for
m warm, fervent, energetic, enthusias
tic, cheerful frame of mind. When
one is in such spirit, obstacles have no
terrors, and success, with fame and
fortune, presents opportunities which
the gloomy, despondent, unhappy
man fails to see or grasp.
To have "lots of ginger," your sys
tem must supply your nerves' with all
the elements of nutrition to make
them strong and vital, so that the
mind or spirit also can be sustained
by nervous force.
No one can be happy with a toothache,
yet a toothache la juat a Buffering nerre.
Doesn't that prove that the nerves control
the pleasures and hnpplneaa of your exist
ence? Starred nerrea result In many Ill
nesses, mnch gloom and little pleaaure for
the possessor.
When there are starved nerves, there ta
no "ginger," no "pep," no Are, no warmth,
no vitality or magnetism. If you lack In
•'ginger," If you lack In "pep," there's a
reason, and the reason Is your nervea are
being deprived of nutritive elements. What
will correct this deplorable condition, you
ask?
Cadomene Tablets is the answer, because
they are designed for that partlcalar pur
pose—A powerful, vitalizing tonic of purest
kind known to medico I experts—containing
no narcotlca or drug that can weaken—bnt
only such as will strengthen and vitalise

Herewith we announce the arrival of another spring.
The landscape may be gray with snow or bleak with leafless trees that
stand outlined against a slate-colored sky.
The wind may have a Hop upon its Fast One attached to the sting of a
virile young hornet.
It may be snowing or blowing, or both. Theso things have nothing whatso
ever to do with the case.
For spring has came. It arrived with the announcement that sundry ball
clubs were mobilizing and pointing in the general direction of the pink-tinted
South—
In Dixie land to take their stand
And slam the pill to beat the band,
To loosen up long-frosted wings
With inlield pegs and outfield flings,
Where "Coming Cobbs" are after jobs
And budding stars are thick,
But where, by May, they fade away
To let the Old Boys stick.
In Dixie land they're praised and panned,
And some are held and some are canned.
Where agile scribes evolve new curves
With phantom dips and mystic swerves,
Where one and all land on the ball
And play a jam-up game.
But where, by June, in Saskatoon
They've faded from the frame.
With major league ball clubs headed South, spring can he officially written
across the face of the calendar. These lines are its official heralds—"Mar
quard takes it easy, but says the old arm feels great"; "Rixey expects to pitch
the game of his life"; "Eddie Collins faster than ever around the old bag";
"Dave Robertson faster than ever before."
Advance Dope
Advance dope, with its usual elasticity, is already beginning to swarm
across the borders of the sporting page.
In the National League It is now a question of "Who'll beat out the Giants."
In the American League the main query is. "Can the Red Sox get by
again?" McGraw not. only has the strongest ball club on paper. Last fall, in
the live closing weeks, he had by all odds the strongest ball club on the
field. Until the collapse came at the finish he had a club able to run rough
shod over all opposition—the main answer being twenty-six straight. The
main tangle is that last May the Giants won seventeen straight on the road
and then flopped from within a game of the peak to sixth place. They were
the most erratic ball club that ever took the field. In two forced marches they
put away forty-three victories without n defeat—and then couldn't finish any
better than fourth. They ought to win—but there's a bale of temperament at
tached to the club and temperament is always beyond the border of the dope.
But temperament also means human interest, at times, and the Giants, win
or lose, are going to be almost as Interesting a machine as the old Cubs.
The Red Sox Outlook
The Red Sox began their campaign of frightfulness in 1912. They skidded
in 1913 and 1914, but in 1915 and 'l6 they returned again with both barrels
loaded.
The one chance for them to be stopped is a physical decay that was not
apparent to fhe naked orb last year. With Speaker sold before the season
opened, with Joe Wood missing, with Shor md Leonard in poor early season
form, with Jack Barry hors du second base on through the stretch—they cut
their way to the peak and remained there at the' finish.
What have the Red Sox got? Nothing but a world of pitching strength,
plenty of baseball brains and experience, a good fielding club with a scattering
of dangerous hitters and an undue amount of pluck and stamina. That's
about all.
They have been in three world series within five years and have won all
three. Unless Jack Barry falls down as a leader—which he shouldn't do—the
Red Sox will be hard to oust. This may be their last big year, for Hooper,
Lewis, Hobby, Gardner and Barry, five of their stars, are no longer mere kids.
The main answer here will be Ruth, Leonard, Mays and Shore. If these
four pitchers are right the greater part of the year, there is undoubtedly
enough left in the old machine to win again.
The Cubs won four years out of live; the Mackmen also won four out of
five starts. A Red Sox victory for 1917 would bring their mark up to four out
of six. But the Red Sox face this barrier- —Tigers, Yankees, White Sox
Browns and Indians—meaning Detroit, New York. Chicago, St. Louis and
Cleveland. AH possess unusual strength. From five strong clubs there Is
always the chance that one will get going and pick enough luck to upset the
advance debate.
The Pro-Season Tip
If the two pennant races were to be awarded as the clubs start South, one
could figure fairly well that the first world series game would find Messrs.
Schupp and Ruth engaged in the opening carnival. The Giants have a better
chance to win in the National than the Red Sox have in the American.
The Giants have unusual speed and power, and with only average pitching
should get back to the perch from which they were finally dislodged four
years ago. •
There isn't a weak Giant member on the attack. Take a brief peep at the
UrnS ' aufr ' Robertson, Herzog, Zimmerman, Fletcher,
Every man here can hit tha ball, and at least five of the eight are ex
tremely fast. Mixed up with this speed and power is an unusual amount of
progressiveness, a certain result of any McGraw-Hereog combination. With
this machine under way McGraw only needs average pitching from Schupp
Tesreau, Benton. Perritt and the others. Given that, his club will be safety
ensconced in the clover before mid-September.
DOUGLAS FAIRBANKS IN TRIANGLE PLAY, "THE AMFRICAN'O" SHOW
GAT THE COLOXIAL THEATER TO-DAY AND TO-MORROW
New "i ork Blaze has fallen violently in
love with the beautiful daughter of the
President, and he finds her in dire peril
of being married by force to an officer
of the revolutionist army. Of course,
the quelling of a revolution and the
restoration of order is a trifling- task
to a young man of Mr. Fairbanks' in
tense nature, and the close of the pic
ture sees the villains properly foiled
and the girl rescued in order that she
may wed the athletic hero. "The
Americano" is said to furnish five reels
of the most strenuous activity that
Fairbanks has yet displayed and also
to be one of the best pictures, from a
dramatic standpoint, in which he has
appeared. Francis X. Bushman and
Beverly Bayne will be the added at
traction, to-day only, in the third epi
sode of "The Great Secret," the serial
of a million thrills.
The attraction to-day and to-morrow
at the Family Theater will be the Thos '
11. Ince photo-spectacle, '
"Civilization" "Civilization." This j
To-day spectacle has been I
highly praised since it I
was first shown to the public in New i
York, some few months ago, and it is '
still running to capacity audiences in I
most of the larger cities. The deep im- j
pression created seems due not alone !
to the immensity of the production, but j
also to the fact that a daring use has ■
been made of a theme hitherto consid- I
ered beyond stage adaptation.
For the past year "Civilization" has j
been running in New York and Chicago,
where it was received with the hearti- !
est acclaim.
The scenario of the drama was writ
ten by C. Gardner Sullivan. To provide 1
proper music setting for the scenes of [
"Civilization," Victor L. Schertzinger, a !
composer who had extensive experience
with moving pictures, has been select- i
ed to write a complete score to paral
lel in musical themes the dominant !
theme of the story. There will be a 1
special matinee Saturday morning for I
the school children, at which they will '
be admitted at greatly reduced prices.
Also a 2 o'clock matinee in the after
