Canton, Sept. 25, H. M. S. Cicala secured ample revenge yesterday afternoon, for their previous defeats when they beat the Shameen Sports Club by 68 runs, to 17. It is true that Shameen were unable to put their best team in the field and in fact were only playing nine men, and this no doubt was in a large way responsible for their sensational defent. The game was, played on the Fong Chuen fold and whilst In many respects superior to the old Fati ground in that the gamokong. was played on a matting pitch laid on grass, it still leaves a great deal to be desired from the point of view of accurate cricket.

Batting first, H. M. S. Cicala knocked up 58 runs, Linaker taking five wickets for 14 runs.

The Shameen Sports Club only stood up to eleven overs from the Cicala bowlers, their eight wickets falling for 17 runs, McKessick taking three wickets for 8 runs and Pinder four wickets for 9 runs. Scores:

"The result was I became very: nervous and got so thin and pale my teachers thought they would have to send me home, I took different kinds of medi cine which my parents sent me, but my condition remained unchanged. At last one of my teachers gave me a bottle of Dr. Williams' Pink Fills,

For all sufferers from sinemic conditions and nervous, weak ness Dr. Williams' Pink Pills for Pale People are the world's outstanding specific.

and I had hardly finished It when I could feel an improve ment in my condition. I con-' tinued the use of the pills for some time longer, and I can hardly tell all the good they did me. I gained in strength and weight, and the colour returned to my cheeks, and at the end of the term I grad- uated. I never fail to recom mend Dr. Williams' Pink Pills. to my friends and equal- tances when a tonic is needed."
