of that la found here at Omaha. Investi

flattering offers of various kinds. Harry
Welch, the crack south paw, haa been the

team, with which Lawler, another old
Crelghton man, Is now playing shortstop,
mads him a flattering offer. Randolph,

did th Rock ford team of the "Three I"
league. But, fortunately for Crelghton,
Welch has refused these offers and will
spend bis summer playing with the Origi

scceoted an offer from the Sheldon Union I

We can stop eating. Some people have

What a
Country Clab Enthusiast
FoaaA Oat Darlas; the
Delaa-e.
I always thought that all this talk about
playing golf in all weathers was largely ex
aggerated poppycock," said a prominent
Coslia'l Live ivliliOBt One.
' ' The whole trouble lies in the stomach,
that's plain enough. But we can't afford to
remoe the stomach and we can't afford to
' let It be destroyed by disease. It is the
most Important organ of the body and we
couldn't live without it.
The stomach prepares the food for making
the blood that nourishes every organ and
tissue of the body. Without good, rich
blood the heart becomes weak, the lungs
break down, the liver becomes choked and
the kidneys are strained beyond endurance.
There is no disease, except the consequence
of injury, that is not directly caused or
aggravated by disorders of the stomach.
we M.st Clve It a Rest.
But what are we going to do when the
Stomach is completely tired out and can no
longer digest food? We must not allow our
bodies to become saturated with the poison
ous materials formed by the fermentation
of undigested food that would be followed
by serious and probably fatal results; and
we must not wreck the nervous system by
. the tortures of indigestion. We roust give
.. w the stomach rest. But how are we going to
do It?
It Is evident that we can't live without
food and we can't maintain good health any
length of time on halt rations. When the
stomach Is weary and refuses to work, we
must devise some plan besides starvation to
give It a rest. There Is only one other way,
and that is to do the stomach's work for it.
There are a great many preparations that
can be taken immediately after eating that
will aid the digestion of food. Some of
them help digest starchy foods, such as
bread and potatoes and cereals; others help
digest albuminous and nitrogenous foods,
such as eggs and meat and cheese. Most
of these preparations are good as far as they
go, but they do not go far enough. Nature
demands a generous and varied diet, and
ETERTTHiNo we eat must be thoroughly
digested. Partial digestion may relieve for
a time, but It cannot cure dyspepsia.
TLc Cccaon sense Het&ol
To absolutely cure dyspepsia and restore
the digestive organs to health, we must
give the stomach complete rest and give the
body a plenteous variety of good nourish
ment and at the same time supply recon
structive materials to be used In repairing
the worn out structures.
To devise a method of accomplishing
these things has been a perplexing problem,
and its solution jnarks a new era In the
treatment of dyspepsia.
Bow 11 wis AccoBpniac,.
By Intricate experiments and laboratory
work it was found possible to combine, la
exact proportions, all the dlgestants natural
ly used in the digestion of the various
classes of foods and to unite with them the
organic substances required to build up the
exhausted tissues.
These investigations were especially eon
ducted for the purpose of devising a prep
aratlon which by Its presence In the stomach
and alimentary tract, would completely re-
lleve the digestive organs from work by di
gesting whatever class of foods might b
saten.
Kccor Seems Kenurka&le.
The result has been more than It at first
seemed possible to accomplish. The prepar
ation formed on these principles, known aa
Kodol Dyepepala Cure, has been used by
many thousandsof dyspeptics, and in every
case it afforded almost instant relief, and
Its continued use never failed to bring about
complete recovery, even in the worst case
after everything else had failed. This
record seems remarkable; but It Is only
a natural result of the composition ana
properties of this preparation.
It Digests iv.at Yoa UV
Kodoi, Dyspepsia Cttre digests what yon
eat and allows you to eat all the good, whole
some food you want. If you are suffering
from Indigestion you will be surprised at the
speedy relief It will give you. If your case
ls of long standing It will require a reason
able time to effect a cure; for Nature cannot
replace worn out tissues with new ones by
magic. But when, by the use of this prep
aratlon, the stomach is given absolute rest,
and abundant nourishment and reoonstruc
. tlve materials furnished, recovery ls certain
and permanent.

OMAHA FIELD CLUB IN THE TOURNEYS
Will Sens' Representative to Chi
cago and Minneapolis and Later
Hold Interstate Fixture on
Ita Owa Conrts.
All during th spring and early summer
the frequent occurrence of hotly contested
tennis tournaments at the Omaha Field
club and the constant playing of the game
there has been a good indication of how
actual was to be the revival of tbl sport
here, begun last year. Now the approach
of a western Interstate tennis tournament
to be held in Omaha In August Is final proof
that the reanlmatlon of the game in Ne
braska Is not only real, but Is effective ss
well. But Omaha bas not stopped even
there. Going one step farther, the Omana
Field club has chosen a player to represent
it at the western championship to be held
at Chicago beginning July 17, thus proving
that the local tennis spirit Is now so iuiiy
rejuvenated as to b not only receptive but
aggreeslve as well.
The tournament here will begin on Au
gust 1L It will be held on the grand clay
court ot the Field club, six In all, than
which no better are laid In th west. The
affair will b on th regular circuit, being
right in line In the aeries of western events
of the kind. All the cracks of the country
will be In Chicago tor the western cham
pionship tournament and from there most
of them will go to Lake Mlnnetonka, near
Minneapolis, where the tournament for the
northwestern championship opens on July
18. Just a week later. From there the nat
ural course of th player will b to wtng
down to Omaha and tak In th InteretAt
event.
Thus a great many good tennis players
from other atatea are expected her In July
and everything possible will be don for
their entertainment. This ls the first time
since 1896 that Omaha has had tha Inter
state tournament or any tennis affair at an
of any pretensions. In those old days, Be
tween 1890 and 189S, this event came 10
Omaha every year, and tnere was always
great Interest evinced and keen competition
aroused, for tennis was tnen on me ip
of the wave. After years oi aecaaence ram
the game and the championship contest are
to be restored to Omaha, and it Is hoped
that tb return to the old custom will meet
with marked success from Its earliest De-
ginning.

tournament at Chicago for the western
championship, ls an Interesting fellow and
an amazing tennla player. Th history of
his game ls a novel one In Itself. From
his youngest days he was a verltabl
"shark." He learned to play at his home
In Grand Island when he was yet a "kid.''
With other smalj boys he was wont to chase
balls .fortho, older- ones who. Wielded the
racquets. One day be was banded a racquet
by a man. who was waiting, around for a
tardy opponent to arrive, and waa told to
get across the ' net and knock the balls
back If he could. Then tha man proceeded
to practice on the boy the new cut service
so popular st that time. But Farnsworth
knew the game through and through from
watching It ao long, and Instead of a back
stop the man found he bed a tennis player
opposite him. .
Farnsworth was then IS years old, and
after It was seen that be could give a good
game he was allowed to play regularly
with the adults, despite his youth. He
Improved rapidly and the next year came
to Omaha and played through two rounds
of the tournament of 1896 her, lo which
Austin, Culllngham and Carver were promi
nent feature. After that tb boy went
down to Lincoln, where he easily defeated
a boy who had Just won the Junior tennis
championship In that strong tennis town.
From then on Farnsworth's fame grew.
Each year he entered all th tournaments
In easy reach and alwaya . mad a good
showing, though ha waa, of course, too
young and weak to beat older, experienced
players. When hs was 15 years ot age
he could defeat anyone In Orand Island, and
whll he waa attending tha High acbool
ther b would com to Omaha and Lincoln
each summer and play tennis persistently.
During those younger day he never ac
quired speed to amount to anything, but
he grew absolutely sure on both serve snd
return, while his speed cam with year
and strength. Finally, in 1898, when
Farnsworth was 16, tennis plsyers st Lin
coln found that he could beat them all. Th
next year be came to attend the State uni
versity, and aince then he has been cham
pion of stat and school without a doubt.
Bpsed 1 th point In which Farnsworth
now, at the age ot 20, bas improved his
game moatly. He plays his old, aure
method, but has tripled his speed and plays
everything, even the most difficult strokes,
hard. Tbla haa, of course, reduced his
accuracy to some extent, but that make
little difference, as . he still remains a fsr
more careful snd certain player than most
men he meets. He always covered a lot
of ground, that and hla sure placing being
his winning points In the days when his
stroke waa not Invincible, and he still has
this wide rang capacity.
Farnsworth, too, ls th only Nebraska
tennis player to hav at his command tbs
twist service, made so much of this season
by the sporting press of the esst. Eastern
players us It entirely, and It ls said to be
th greatest thing ever brought out yet to
deceive th receiving man. It ls not a
cut, nor yet a draw, but a combination
downward sweep and saw motion that
causes without fall a very bad and unex
pected bounce.
.This player is almost diminutive . la
stature, being only five feet three Inches -tn
ijelght, and that fact makes his play all
the more wonderful, as he looks very young.
When he was boy champion h was ths
standing subject of gossip at all tourna ,
menta he entered, tor to se such a small
lad playing and defeating old and some
times very large players seemed Inex
plicable. On the occasions that he haa
p!ayed In other cities this statur and youth
have always mad htm th favcrlt and tha
object of chief attention. -
When he waa but 18 years ot age Farns
worth accomplished the commendable feat
of winning th championship of Iowa, Ne
braska and Kansas in ths trl-state tourna
ment held at Sioux City, Ia. That' was In
1900. The next day after hla finals he went
in with Ike Raymond et Lincoln and won
the doubles. In 1902 Farnsworth again won
the singles In th same event, defeating
Raymond In the finals, and be and Raymond
took tha doubles for a second tlm.
"Bo I think I shall try hard to gat back
to Sioux City this year," said Farnsworth, at
the Field club on day last week. "You see
I havs to win that eup only once mor ta
own It permanently, and so with the trophy
for tb double. I should be abl to make
It tore straight In ths singles and Ray
mond and I bops to do equally well In tha
other event. At lesst, I havs two chaneea
to win a permanent prlx and Ita worth
whll trying."
At Chicago Farnsworth' low, steady, per
atstent style of gam should mak a hit and
his showing' will, be a creditable one It b
la In form. 7 After, that tournament h will
go with ths cracks to Mlnnetonka, th party
taking a special train from Kenwood there.
The western championship ls to be held at
ths Kenwood Country club courts under tha
auspices of the National Lawn Tennis as
sociation... Th Pmaba Field club baa just
Joined this association and will In thla
tournament for tne first time enter a repre
sentatlve. Tb tournsment In Omaha will
b under the same auspices. -Tb north
western championship event will be held by
tha Lake Mlnnetonka. YachUng club. It will
continue on full week.
Farnsworth has been doing most of big
preliminary work for the western cham
ploushlp tournament at th Feld club dur
ing th last two weak.. Tb long rainy
apell put him out ef form somewhat and he
Is still a little wild on back line balls, but
expects to wear that all off at Kenwood,
where h will go a week before the vnt
begins on July 19. McOee, who won last
year the championship of the University of
Chicago, has been la Omaha recently as
well and says that Farnsworth ls great at
the game.
