PHYSICAL TRAINING.
Exercise and n Plain Diet Better Than
Pills.

Pills.
The Chicago Tribune, publishing
reporters interview with prize tighter,
and his description of the process OF
physical training required for these
brutal contests--the sweating, the rub
bing. the dieting, the laborious gymnas-
tics-points moral, as follows:
Leaving ont the motive which induces
the bruiser to submit to this sort OF
pbysical discomfort, there is result
achieved which is worth some consider
alton. The bruiser goes to the trainer
as an old hat is sent to the halter, or an
old carpet is sent to the renovator Nine
times out of ten lie is out OF condition,
enervated by dissipation, bloated with
whisky and general physical wreck.
By the time however, that he gets
through with his trainer he comes out
new man. He loses all his supertluous
. flesh, His muscles are firm and hard.
) His digestion is perfect. His lungs arc
"a tough as a blacksmith 8 bellows. HIS
nerves are iron cords. His bleared eyes
+ arc frightened. His whole frame IS
& snpple, sprightly and elastic. lie IS
the perfect picture of physical health
" strength and beauty. ,,s
c Now this result is what two-thlrds oi
n mankind are seeking. Doctors OF all
|. schools have this purpose IN view, name
o ", the repairing and renovating OF worn
q and dilapidated human bodies. Drug
d stores are multiplying rapidly. Mineral
in springs, blood purifiers and curative
* pills are advertised everywhere. CROWDS
st of people flock to the watering, places
10 every summer and other crowds flock to
Europe, with the one object in view to
;" repair the ruins of time and reckless liV-
j. ing or overworking. And yet, in ninety
X nine cases out of ono hundred all these
IS means fail. But here is bruiser VINO,
Id without drugs or doctors, without MN
ps eral springs or travel, transforms his
re whole physical man in an lncrealoly
ed short space of time. The process neVei s
IT. fails. The trainer of prlze-hGhtei'

tleut eats mutton and beef without seas
lp- ouipg of any sort, tea without sugar ant
ID drv toast He makes him get up earl
y; in the mornil and go to bed early Il
ct night. He gives him plenty OF exer
cise, He uses nothing but nature
le medicines and uses them with unerrlnl
ill accuracy. If the bruiser has weal
spot, he streug hens it. lie goes owe
tly his man as a tuner goes over piano an
OIL brings every note into perfect tnn9' /
he has not flesh enough he puts NOR

Won some off, and ho performs this operatlo
you With such accuracy that he will take o
ide. the same amount every day, and upo
