SUBSCRIBE FOR THE GUARD Sidney Ben Smith, playing mana ger of the Eugene Colts, was born in Marsbfleld, Coos county, some twenty-three years ago. More Coast leag uers and big baseball players have pawed the diamonds of the bush leagues of Coos county than in any other single part of the Northwest, so no friend of Sid's was surprised when he took to baseball on the Pacific I Grove high school (California) team ;in 1902. I In 1903 he returned to his native : town lots and showed his prowess in I the little league of coast towns. Then : he was persuaded by his parents to ' remove to Eugene, and readily came ins they were paying the largest snl lary at that time. He immediately 'entered upon his career in the Eu i gene high school. When he was not ! playing baseball he planned- and played basketball, and In that field ' he formed his first conception of be I ing a manager. . I In 1907 he played outfield on I the University nine under Hugo Bez , dek. In that year he was the best Ibaserunne ron the team. In the spring and summer of that year he took the Springfield team into nis care and put out the best team that the sawmill city has ever had. win ning the Lane county pennant. The next season he longed for a little lar ger field, and played In the Trl-Clty league with the Vancouver team He was picked on the all Trl-City team. Other players picked were White, Pender, Coleman and Fny. Smith played shortstop. He batted .416 and fielded .844. This year Sid Smith and Jay Mc Cormlck nre mnnnglng the Eugene Colts, and have not suffered a de feat in a regular game. Smith Ib now plnylng second base. His style is to make the easy ones good, and to show his dash in (ho pinches and in going after the hard ones. His dar ing Is best demonstrated on the bases, and he hns no difficulty in getting on, for while a little man he always hits well. ' As a manager Smith Is popularly supposed to mnke money. But that Ib not due to short-sighted policy of playing popr teams or using poor material. He has a large acquaint ance anion gball playeys, and if a po sition needs bracing up he does not hesitate to get the bracer. On that account, Eugene men have seen the best amateurs in the state play at different times, and the present team has the Indication of being a winner.

A falling liny nerve no larger than the finest silken thread takes from the Heart Its Impulse. Its pow er, its regularity. The stomach also has its hidden, or- inside nerve. It was Dr. Shoop who first told us It was wrong to drug a weak or fall ing stomach, heart, or kidneys. His prescription Dr. Shoop's Restora tive is directe dstralght for the cause of these ailments these weak and faltering Inside nerves. This, no doubt clearly explains why the Restorative has of late grown so rapidly In popularity. Druggists say that those who test the Restora tive even for a few days soon be come fully convinced of its wonder ful merit. Anyway, don't drug the organ. Treating the cause of sick ness Is the only sensible and suc cessful way. Sold by all dealers. Trm, "When You Buy Bakind Powder BE SURE YOU GETTHEB T- TTT whv tiav three Drices?
