per some simple food. always avoid giving my
children too many sweets. My boys retire about 7
p m. and rise about the same hour in the morning
try in all ways to keep the boys from rough and
vulgar company, not permitting them to remain
outdoors after dusk, and insist their observ-

and better progress is shown at school. In con-

Now that Hackenschmidt Is again in
England, and seeing that he has taken
to the catch-as-catch-can style of
wrestling-his recent contest in America
with Tom Jenkins was catch-as-catch-
can-I would like to back Madrali
against him at that style. for any
amount up to 500 pounds. Catch-as-
catch-can is really Madralts style of
wrestling, and as Hackenscnmidt has
always refused to meet him at this,
see no excuse for him aow, that he has
accepted Jenkins at this STYLE"
