BENSON BRIEFS.
Bs in Cuts Short Ball Game?Fine
Crop Prospects.
Benson, June 16:?The Isesmith
ball tossers, with an enthusiastic following
of fair fans, formed a procession
that reached Benson before
-the scheduled hour for playing. The
intervening time was very pleasantly
whiled away in the shady grove in
M?Mm Vmma Mf?C!nt/?hpn's,
1.runl U1 1Uk o UUIUIM wv. ?
hcme.where the local team and their
lady friends had previously arranged
to entertain the visitors until the
hour for the game in the afternoon.
After the custom*, y spread of gastronomic
ediblet, attended by the
social comminglirg of the visitors
and the home folk in the enjoyment
of the "good digestion that waits on
appetite," the sons of sport repaired
to the ball ground, and at 3:30 Umpire
Charlie Boy kin of Lanes called:
"Play ball!" Soon the sphere was
twirled into the air with such velocity
that it almost took the breath
from the spectators.
"A good beginning never ends
well," was aptly illustrated on this
occasion. That is to say, home runs
were too frequent, beautiful opportunities
for ringing cheers from the
eager crowd were disappointments
when tempting "flies" were muffed.
The game was closed before the
last inning on account of the threatening
clouds. It was not many minutes
afterwards before the refreshing
rain poared in torrents. (How
was the score??Printer's Devil).
Our vicinity is being visited with
delightful showers, putting new life
into tobacco and corn. Of course,
cotton, as all farmers know, is a dry
weather plant and up to the present
we could not ask for a brighter prospect
for a bountiful harvest.
It Is a most favorable time for
planting pea-vine hay. Seed peas
are selling at the rate of two dollars
and a half a bushel. This price
is expensive to the buyer, yet all of
our lands, with but few exceptions,
produce peas abundantly, and it is
not economy to buy when this crop
can be raised so easily. WES.

Take Plenty of Time to Eat.
There is a saying that "rapid eating
is slow suicide." If you have
formed the habit of eating too rapidly
you are most likely suffering
from indigestion or constipation,
which will result eventually in serious
illness unless corrected. Digestion
begins in the mouth. Food
3hould be thoroughly masticated
and insalivated. Then when you
have a fullness of the stomach or
feel dull and stupid after eating,
take one of Chamberlain's Tablets.
Many severe cases of stomach trouble
and constipation have been cured
by the use of these tablets. They
ire easy to take and most agreeable
in effect. Sold by all dealers.
