Heine's One Amateur Team ,
That Doesn't Bar Murphy s
Picket, " Manager of Ernie Holmes' White Sox, Says
His Team Is After Scalps of Champions Prom
ises Rough Row for Titleholders.
When The Bee printed the in
formation last Tuesdav that mem
bers of the Greater Omaha'Amateur
Base Ball league opposed giving the
Murnhy-Did-Its, last year's cham
pions, a Derth in the league this
year, it brought forth the following
denial from L. A. Picket, manager
of Ernie Holmes White Sox:
Sports ' Editor. Omaha Bee Dear
Sir: Speaking for the Holmes White
Sox 1 wish to say that the Alurphy-
Did-Its ball team can sit easy as
there never has been any desire on
our part to bar them from the Great
er Omaha league, and I shall cer-
!rl ast, Relief
: from Rheumal
Springseemn tcfag
'r gravate this pain-
ful disease
Victims of Rheumatism,
that most painful and tortur
ing of all disease, feel . that
with the approach of balmy
springtime they may expect
some relief from the pangs of
suffering which they have en
dured all winter.
' -And this is an excellent
time to get rational results
from the right sort of treat
ment for this painful ailment.
Just now the system is ready
to throw off the impurities
that have been accumulating
throughout the winter season,
and nature is ready to help
in the eliminating process that
is so essential in preparing the
system for the changing sea
Many form of Rheuma
tism Come from a tiny dia
east) germ that infest the
blood and multiply by the
million, spreading pain and ,
torture in their wake.
, Those who have not yet
realized the truth of this
statement, and expect to get
rid of the disease by the use
6f liniments and lotions and
other locally applied treat
ment, will continue to suffer
from Rheumatism, and will
find their condition growing
steadily worse all the time.
Rheumatism is more than a
mere local disorder confined
to the locality of the painful
parts. It-cannot be rubbed
away, because it ts a .fleep
seated disease that has its
source in the blood supply.
The tiny pain demons, the
millions of little disease germs
that cause the disease must
be reached and eliminated
from the blood before real re
lief can be had.
S. S. S. has been success
fully used for Rheumatism for
more than fifty years. It is
the most "thorough and reli
able blood remedy because it
searches out and eliminates
all disease germs which infest
the blood.
Mr. E. P. Bratches of Dal
las, Texas, says in a recent
letter: "I was down for
several weeks with rheuma
tism in my knees, could not
work. I commenced S. S. S.
and before I used two bottles
I could get around fairly well.
I continued using S. S. S. un
til I used twelve bottles and
I am now entirely well. I am
a carpenter and now can do
my work all O. K. I feel as
young as I did at thirty, al
though I am fjfty. I highly
recommend S. S. S. for Rheu
matism of the ioints."
S. . S. has done wonderful
thin us in the treatment
of Rheumatism, particularly
that form of the disease
which cpmes from . the tiny
germ that gets into the blfiod,
multiplies rapidly and car
ries the torturing pain
throughout the system.
S. S. S. is sold by druggists
everywhere. It is a fifty
year-old remedy, and its use
is no experiment, as it has
been on the market for over
half a century, . and is
known . throughout the
length and breadth of the
land.
Now i an excellent time
to treat your Rheumatism
with S. S. S., while the sys
tem is undergoing its annual
spring cleaning, and throw
ing off impurities. '
Go to your drug store and
get a bottle .of S. S. S. today,
and begin to take a rational,
sensible treatment for Rheu
matism that will show re
sults. For free expert medi
cal advice regarding your
own case, write fully to

We want them in the league and
do not consider them the least bit
too strong. We had a young team
last year which is bound to im
prove and bclievewe have a much
stronger lineup this year and there
is no sure thing that the veteran
Murphys are going to have the
easy sailing they experienced last
season. Thry had a great team
last year, we agree, but they can't
last forever and we are after their

Former Soldiers Want to
Play Base Ball This Year
Fourteen former service men are
now listed in The Bee's Base Ball
Clearing House. Three others were
given opportunities to show their
ability last week when a local man
ager sent in a call for two outfield
ers and a first baseman.
One of the 14 service men now
listed managed an .army team for
the last two years. He is also a
catcher and says in a pinch he can
play any position on the team but
pitch.
Three of the remaining 13 are
first basemen, two are pitchers,
five are outfielders, one is a catcher
and two are third basemen.
Any local manager who wants to
give one or more of these lads a
tryout should query The Bee's Base
Ball Clearing House. There are no
charges connected with Clearing
House service either for player or
manager.
Out-of-town managers should also
query when they need 'players.
