But actually the Club have batting all through and even with Alec! Penres and Duckitt off they did not have to call on J. Steln who is a ust- ful forcing bat.
Although his figures were not very startling, I gather Baker bowled very well indeed for the Civil Service, anil ho did them a great service when he yorked Gillespie's leg stump just na he was looking set for one of his hig hitting innings.
Wallington who came down to score for the Club played for the C.S. who were a man short and judging by his good fielding it would seem possible that he may yet be able to resume his place in the Mide.

SCRATCHING never
gives a DOG relief
—but it often leads to Eczema !
A word of warning if your dog is scratching. He is feeling the terrible itching sensation under his skin which all dogs experience when their blood is impure. Scratching won't give him relief but it might easily lead to eczema. First a bare patch in hit cost and then... trouble !
Eczema is painful, and difficult to cure, so stop your dog scratching now by purifying his blood with a course of Bob Martin's Tasteless Condition Powders. Your dog's skin is non-porous and he cannot perspire. He is denied that easy means of getting rid of impurities from his blood, but because he liver with you and exts prepared foods his blood is continually being loaded with impurities. To put it bluntly, unless you provide your dog with a blood corrective regularly you neglect him.
Sur now.vn kep him at and happy always. Give your dog Bob Martin's Condition Powders three times a day on two successive days in every week. Because they purify and refresh the blood Bob Martin's 'Tasteless Condition Powders prevent and cure all commen blood disorders such continual acratching, listlessness, loss of appetite, loose coat, sulky temper, eczema and * swellings between the toes.
Bob Martin's Tasteless Condition Powders are obtainable in packets of 9 powders, and in boxes of 21 powders, Full Instructions enclosed,
